(TSX-V: NVM) (PINKSHEETS:MLYFF) (FRANKFURT:M1V), MillenMin has been granted the exclusive right and option (the "Option") to acquire an undivided 70% interest in the Windpass Gold property (the "Property") by paying an aggregate of $120,000 to Nevada CMI, incurring $750,000 aggregate exploration expenditures on the Property and issuing an aggregate of 400,000 common shares in the capital of MillenMin (the "Shares") to Nevada CMI over a period of four years. The Property is subject to a 3% net smelter returns royalty in favour of third parties, which may be repurchased by the Company for the aggregate amount of $300,000.  Upon closing of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company paid cash $10,000 to Nevada CMI and issued 100,000 Shares to Nevada CMI. These Shares are subject to a hold period expiring September 25, 2012.

The Property is located approximately 8 km east of Little Fort in Central British Columbia, between Dunn Lake and Baldy Mountain. The Property is comprised of seven Mineral Leases covering 354.34 hectares and one Mineral Claim covering 382.78 hectares for a total of approximately 737 hectares. All of the Mineral Tenures are 100% owned by Nevada CMI. Access to the Property is provided by paved and well-maintained gravel roads. A National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") compliant technical report with respect to the Property (the "Technical Report") has been prepared by Norm Tribe, P.

In connection with the Qualifying Transaction, Nevada CMI will pay a cash finder's fee of $2,000 to John Chalcraft, who is an arm's length party to the Company and Nevada CMI.

In conjunction with the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company completed a non-brokered concurrent financing (the "Private Placement") of 3,000,000 units (the "Units") of the Company at a price of $0.20 per Unit for gross proceeds of $600,000.  Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant.  Each full warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.25 per share until May 24, 2013 and thereafter at a price of $0.40 per share until May 24, 2014.  No finder's fees were paid in connection with the Private Placement.  MillenAsia Resource Inc. ("MillenAsia") has purchased the entire 3,000,000 Units. After giving effect to the Qualifying Transaction and the Private Placement, MillenAsia owns 4,000,000 Shares representing approximately 44.0% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company and 1,500,000 common share purchase warrants (assuming exercise of all of the warrants, MillenAsia will hold 5,500,000 common shares of the Company representing 51.9% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of the Company).  MillenAsia is a private company which is wholly-owned by Li Liu, the spouse of Shunyi Yao, who is the Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company.  The 3,000,000 Shares and 1,500,000 Warrants issuable pursuant to the Private Placement will be held in escrow pursuant to the Exchange Value Security Escrow Agreement dated May 7, 2012. The Company has been advised that the Units were acquired by MillenAsia for investment purposes, that MillenAsia has no present intention to acquire further securities of the Company, although MillenAsia may in the future acquire or dispose of securities of the Company through the market, privately or otherwise, as circumstances or market conditions warrant.  The securities issued in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a hold expiring September 25, 2012.

The net proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to fund the costs associated with the completion of the Qualifying Transaction, to meet the Company 's obligations under the Option Agreement, to carry out the Phase I work program as recommended in the Technical Report on the Property and to provide general corporate purposes for the 12-month period after completion of the Qualifying Transaction.
