TV.WT Trevali Mining Corp

Trevali Mining Corporation ("Trevali" or the "Company")
(TSX:TV)(TSX:TV.WT)(OTCQX:TREVF)(LMA:TV)(FRANKFURT:4TI) is pleased to announce
that it has finalized all the legal documentation and has closed the $30-million
of funding associated with its previously announced $60-million senior debt and
prepaid precious metals facility ("Facility") with RMB Resources ("RMB"), the
resource financing division of the FirstRand Group of South Africa. The debt
facility will be used to repay current debt, fund development towards
stand-alone mine and mill operations in the Bathurst Camp of New Brunswick, and
for general corporate working capital purposes.


This mezzanine-tranche of the facility is repayable on the earlier of June 30,
2014, or closing of the final $60-million senior debt facility. The facility
bears interest of LIBOR + 8.5% per annum and has an arrangement fee of 5% and
3,000,000 warrants to purchase Trevali common shares on the TSX exercisable at
any time through June 30, 2015 at an exercise price of $1.05 per share, subject
to TSX approval.


It is anticipated that the $60-million senior debt and prepaid precious metals
facility will be approved subject to the receipt of positive ongoing technical
studies relating to the commencement of production in New Brunswick.


With the closing of the initial funding facility now in place, Trevali will
commence its reactivation program and associated studies in the Bathurst Mining
Camp of New Brunswick aimed at recommencing operations at the Caribou Mill and
Mine complex and at the Halfmile Mine in 2014. The Company has commenced hiring
key technical personnel and will initiate orders on key, long-lead-term
components for the mill - specifically the SAG mill in the coming week.


"Given the challenging commodity and equity markets, we are very happy to close
this initial $30-million funding from RMB and start the reactivation program on
our New Brunswick production projects," stated Dr. Mark Cruise, Trevali's
President and CEO. "This facility from RMB reflects their confidence in the
Company's management team, zinc fundamentals and our production and growth plans
going forward from our operations both in Peru and Canada."

"forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadian
securities legislation. Statements containing forward-looking information
express, as at the date of this news release, the Company's plans, estimates,
forecasts, projections, expectations, or beliefs as to future events or results
and the company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation to, update
such statements containing the forward-looking information. Such forward-looking
statements and information include, but are not limited to statements as to: the
accuracy of estimated mineral reserves and resources, anticipated results of
future exploration, and forecast future metal prices, anticipated results of
future electrical sales and expectations that environmental, permitting, legal,
title, taxation, socio-economic, political, marketing or other issues will not
materially affect estimates of mineral reserves. These statements reflect the
Company's current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based
upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by
the Company, are inherently subject to significant business, economic,
competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies.


These statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future
events and are necessarily based upon a number of assumptions and estimates
that, while considered reasonable by the company, are inherently subject to
significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties
and contingencies. Many factors, both known and unknown, could cause actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the
results, performance or achievements that are or may be expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements contained in this news release and the company
has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors.
Such factors include, without limitation: fluctuations in spot and forward
markets for silver, zinc, base metals and certain other commodities (such as
natural gas, fuel oil and electricity); fluctuations in currency markets (such
as the Peruvian sol versus the U.S. dollar); risks related to the technological
and operational nature of the Company's business; changes in national and local
government, legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and political or
economic developments in Canada, the United States, Peru or other countries
where the Company may carry on business in the future; risks and hazards
associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining
(including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected
geological or structural formations, pressures, cave-ins and flooding); risks
relating to the credit worthiness or financial condition of suppliers, refiners
and other parties with whom the Company does business; inadequate insurance, or
inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks and hazards; employee
relations; relationships with and claims by local communities and indigenous
populations; availability and increasing costs associated with mining inputs and
labour;

the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the
risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits and the presence of laws and
regulations that may impose restrictions on mining,; diminishing quantities or
grades of mineral reserves as properties are mined; global financial conditions;
business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, the Company; the
Company's ability to complete and successfully integrate acquisitions and to
mitigate other business combination risks; challenges to, or difficulty in
maintaining, the Company's title to properties and continued ownership thereof;
the actual results of current exploration activities, conclusions of economic
evaluations, and changes in project parameters to deal with unanticipated
economic or other factors; increased competition in the mining industry for
properties, equipment, qualified personnel, and their costs. Investors are
cautioned against attributing undue certainty or reliance on forward-looking
statements. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors
that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, described or intended.
The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these
forward-looking statements or information to reflect changes in assumptions or
changes in circumstances or any other events affecting such statements or
information, other than as required by applicable law.


Trevali's production plans at Caribou-Halfmile-Stratmat and Santander are based
only on Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources and not Mineral Reserves and do
not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred Mineral Resources are
considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations
applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves,
and there is therefore no certainty that the conclusions of the production plans
and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) will be realized. Additionally where
Trevali discusses exploration/expansion potential, any potential quantity and
grade is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to
define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result
in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
