Bannerman Resources Limited Quarterly Activities Report for the Period Ended 31 December 2014

PERTH, AUSTRALIA--(Marketwired - Jan 28, 2015) - Bannerman Resources Ltd. (ASX:BMN)(TSX:BAN)(NAMIBIAN:BMN) ("Bannerman") is pleased to announce highlights from its December 2014 Quarterly Activities Report released today. The full report is available on Bannerman's website at www.bannermanresources.com and on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

During the December 2014 quarter, Bannerman Resources Ltd. (ASX:BMN)(TSX:BAN)(NAMIBIAN:BMN) maintained its focus on activities that will enable fast tracking a commitment to the development of the Etango project in a rising uranium price environment.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Construction of the heap leach demonstration plant well advanced by end of quarter.
• Increased trading activity resulted in the uranium spot price reaching a high of US$44/lb U₃O₈ before dropping back to US$35.50 U₃O₈ and the term price increased to US$50/lb U₃O₈.
• Bannerman's cash balance as at 31 December 2014 was A$2.8 million.

On 22 September 2014 Bannerman announced award of the major contracts to construct and operate the Etango heap leach demonstration plant. Activities at the site commenced in early October and construction is on schedule for completion during the March quarter 2015.

Progress as at the date of this report includes completion of the:

• primary and secondary crushing of the 3,000 tonne ore sample with tertiary crushing scheduled for completion by early February,
• civil construction of the 6 metre high concrete cribs and the reagent mixing area,
• two evaporation ponds, and
• rehabilitation of the areas where the ore and waste rock samples were sourced from.

Operation of the plant for at least 12 months will enable demonstration of the heap leach design at a larger scale, as well as provide input data for detailed engineering of the processing plant. First results are expected in the June quarter, 2015.

Bannerman's Chief Executive Officer, Len Jubber, said:

"Bannerman's commitment to the Etango heap leach demonstration plant program, with the support of our major shareholder RCF via the investment from its Fund VI, will enhance our early mover advantage and ability to fast-track the development of the Etango project in a rising uranium price environment."

"The growing awareness of the looming supply deficit is evident in the approximate four-fold increase in the term contract market year on year coupled with the increased spot and term prices in the past quarter."

Bannerman's advancing Etango Project remains one of the very few globally significant uranium projects that can realistically be brought into production in the medium term.

About Bannerman - Bannerman Resources Ltd. is an ASX, TSX and NSX listed exploration and development company with uranium interests in Namibia, a southern African country which is a premier uranium mining jurisdiction. Bannerman's principal asset is its 80%-owned Etango Project situated near Rio Tinto's Rössing uranium mine, Paladin's Langer Heinrich uranium mine and CGNPC's Husab uranium mine currently under construction. A definitive feasibility study has confirmed the technical, environmental and financial (at consensus long term uranium prices) viability of a large open pit and heap leach operation at one of the world's largest undeveloped uranium deposits. In 2015, Bannerman is conducting a large scale heap leach demonstration program to provide further assurance to financing parties, generate process information for the detailed engineering design phase and build and enhance internal capability.

Mineral Resources that are not Ore Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Bannerman Resources Ltd. ("Bannerman") manages its drilling and assaying activities in accordance with industry standard quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) procedures. Samples are collected by Bannerman personnel and prepared in accordance with specified procedures at the relevant assay laboratories. Drill samples were analysed for uranium by the Bureau Veritas Laboratory in Swakopmund, Namibia. Bureau Veritas is an International Laboratory Group with operations in 140 countries, including Ultratrace and Amdel in Australia. Assay QA/QC involves the use of assay standards (sourced from African Mineral Standards (AMIS) in Johannesburg, made from Bannerman pulp rejects and cross-checked through umpire laboratories for which the round robin reports are available), field duplicates, blanks and barren quartz flushes. A third party "umpire" laboratory (Genalysis in Perth) is used to cross-check and validate approximately 5% of the assay results in accordance with standard procedures. Sample coarse rejects are retained and approximately 5% of samples are re-submitted for further assay verification. All sample pulps, half-core and rock-chip samples are retained at Bannerman's Goanikontes Warehouse Facility (GWS) on site.
