VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(MARKET WIRE)--May 27, 2009 -- EXMIN Resources Inc. (EXMIN) (CDNX:EXM.V - News) announces that it has been notified by Hochschild Mining Plc. (Hochschild) that it will exercise its Right Of First Refusal to purchase EXMIN's 30% interest in Minas Santa Maria de Moris, S.A. de C.V., (MSMM), for U$1.5 million plus IVA, the 15% value added tax in Mexico. MSMM is the Mexican company that owns the assets of Moris mine project.

In late March, EXMIN signed a Letter of Intent to sell its 30% shareholding interest in MSMM to Caza Gold Corp., a private company, which offered to purchase EXMIN's interest in MSMM for U$1.5 million plus IVA. The offer was subject to a Right Of First Refusal by Hochschild, which owns a 70% interest in MSMM and has been the operator of the project since the companies purchased the Moris mine in December, 2006.

Karl J. Boltz, President & CEO stated, "The net proceeds from the sale of the mine will assist EXMIN to recapitalize the Company in a challenging capital financing environment. The Moris mine has not produced any benefit to EXMIN shareholders. The capital raised in the sale of the mine will allow the Company to advance its other projects as Management continues to explore numerous strategic opportunities for the Company."
