AXM AXMIN INC

AXMIN Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AXM) ("AXMIN" or the "Company") is pleased to update its
shareholders on the Passendro gold project following Dickson's representatives
meetings in South Africa and the Central African Republic ("CAR") and its
subsequent Board of Directors meeting on July 25, 2013.


In early July, on behalf of the Company's new management team, Dickson
representatives and mine development team travelled to South Africa as part of
its extensive review of the Company's operations in the country and the status
of the work on its major project. Subsequently, AXMIN's senior management and
the Dickson representatives travelled to CAR to meet with President Michel
Djotodia, the Minister of Mines and the Minister of Transportation to discuss
the best way forward to ensure that the Passendro project is developed as
expeditiously and economically as possible. During the meeting in the CAR, the
government representatives reinforced their commitment to honour AXMIN's
agreements with the State and to create a safe and stable environment at the
Passendro Project so that the Company can resume its operations and properly
secure the site. AXMIN in turn stated its commitment to focus its capital and
its resources to advancing the project towards development. 


AXMIN's Chairman and Interim CEO, Lucy Yan comments, "The new management of
AXMIN looks forward to working with the government of the CAR to build a
relationship of trust, opening all lines of communication in order to address
any outstanding issues relating to the Passendro project. In these challenging
markets it is also imperative that the Company reduces its costs in both the
Toronto and South African offices to ensure over the long-term it remains a
viable entity and can develop the CAR's first modern gold mine." 


Following the Board of Directors meeting on July 25, 2013, given the current
market environment and the fiscal situation of AXMIN, the Company has made
commitments to lower costs and to redirect its focus specifically on building
value at its major asset, the Passendro gold project in the CAR. After extensive
review by management, directors and Dickson representatives of both the Toronto
and South African operations and in-light of the Company's primary objective to
reduce costs, AXMIN's management has made the decision to reduce the operations
in these locations and to terminate the following employees: Graham Hill, Chief
Operating Officer effective July 25, 2013, Janina Dusza, Chief Financial Officer
("CFO"), effective July 26, 2013 and Judy Webster, VP Investor Relations,
effective July 19, 2013. Moving forward, the Company will maintain two offices:
its corporate head office as well as its project office in the CAR. While these
were difficult decisions for the Company, they have significantly reduced the
expenses of the Company and will allow it to focus its capital on the
development of the Passendro Project. The Company looks forward to the
possibility of working with Mr. Hill, Ms. Dusza, and Ms. Webster in the future.


AXMIN also announces today that the Board of Directors has appointed Ms. Terry
Wong as the Company's CFO on an interim basis effective immediately. 


Ms. Wong is a Certified Management Accountant. She has over 8 years of financial
experience working for both, private and public companies. She has also worked
closely with companies and professionals within the finance, mining, and energy
industries. Ms. Wong has advanced knowledge of Canadian GAAP and IFRS
regulations. From July 2008 to April 2011, Ms. Wong acted as the Financial
Controller of Resinco Capital Partners Inc. ("Resinco"), a TSX listed Investment
Company, and since then, has acted in numerous financial roles in companies,
including as a CFO of a capital pool companies on the TSX Venture Exchange. Ms.
Wong received her BCOMM from the University of British Columbia.


AXMIN's Chairman and Interim CEO, Lucy Yan comments, "We are pleased to welcome
Terry to our senior management team. We are confident that Terry's expertise
with both international and Canadian capital and public markets will service
AXMIN well as it works to develop the Passendro gold project. Considering the
Company has no firm timeline when operations at Passendro can resume, it is
prudent that AXMIN reduces its expenses to conserve cash. As we move through the
remainder of this year I plan to update our shareholders on our activities and
progress as we work to develop this important asset."
