Central African Mining & Exploration Company plc
("CAMEC" or the "Company")
Cancellation of admission of trading on AIM
Further to today's announcement by Eurasian Natural Resources Corporation PLC
that its recommended offer ("Offer") for the entire issued share capital of
CAMEC has been declared unconditional in all respects, CAMEC confirms that
application has been made to the London Stock Exchange to cancel the admission
to trading on AIM of the ordinary shares of 0.1p each in the capital of the
Company ("CAMEC Shares").
The notice period of 20 business days referred to in the Offer document will
therefore commence as of today's date and it is anticipated that trading of
CAMEC Shares on AIM will be cancelled with effect from 7:00 am on 8 December
2009. Accordingly the last day of dealings in CAMEC Shares will be 7 December
2009.
Cancellation of admission to trading of CAMEC Shares on AIM will significantly
reduce the liquidity and marketability of all CAMEC Shares not assented to the
Offer at that time and CAMEC shareholders should be aware that, because the AIM
Rules will cease to apply to CAMEC following the cancellation of admission to
trading of CAMEC Shares on AIM, they will as a result, have more limited
shareholder protections if they remain shareholders in CAMEC.

by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms 'believes',
'estimates', 'plans', 'projects', 'anticipates', 'expects', 'intends', 'may',

Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, most of which are
difficult to predict and generally beyond the Group's control. By their nature,
forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to

statements are not guarantees of future performance and that if risks and
uncertainties materialise, or if the assumptions underlying any of these
statements prove incorrect, the Group's actual results of operations, financial
condition and liquidity and the development of the industry in which the Group

forward-looking statements contained in this announcement. In addition, even if
the Group's results of operations, financial condition and liquidity and the
development of the industry in which the Group operates are consistent with the
forward-looking statements contained in this announcement, those results or
developments may not be indicative of results or developments in future periods.
A number of factors could cause results and developments to differ materially
from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements including,
without limitation, general economic and business conditions, industry trends,
competition, commodity prices, changes in regulation, currency fluctuations,
changes in business strategy, political and economic uncertainty. Subject to the
requirements of the Prospectus Rules, the Disclosure and Transparency Rules and
the Listing Rules or any applicable law or regulation, the Group expressly
disclaims any obligation or undertaking publicly to review or confirm analysts
