Adroit Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:ADT)(FRANKFURT:A7V)(BERLIN:A7V) - Management
is pleased to report that OIKOS Engineering srl, of Grosseto, Italy
(www.oikosengineering.com), have completed their independent Environmental
Impact Study for the Company's 31,260 meter, 388 drill hole programme. The
purpose of this programme is to provide a NI 43-101 compliant resource for
historical Antimony resources and extensions thereof on Adroit's wholly owned
Poggio Pietricci and Faggio Scritto contiguous exploration permits located in
the Manciano area, Grosseto Province, Italy.


The Environmental Impact Study has been submitted to the Italian authorities for
public approval in accordance with Italian and European regulations. The Company
anticipates approval for this drill programme in the early part of 2013.


Drilling Planned: The Company plans to initiate resource calculation drilling in
the fall of this year on its I Salaioli permit. The I Salaioli programme has
received the requisite approval for 4,000 meters in 20 drill holes. Following
the I Salaioli programme, management anticipates that drill rigs will be
mobilized onto the Poggio Pietricci and Fagio Scritto permits in the early part
of next year. 


Historical Antimony Resources and Other Metals. These three permits, as
previously reported, have a total of 22,000 tonnes of contained Antimony in near
surface non NI 43-101 compliant resources. More than 21,000 tonnes of this
resource is located on the Poggio Pietricci and Fagio Scritto permits. The
historical resources were not assayed for precious and base metals, however,
drill programmes by an Anglo American/AGIP joint venture and the Company on the
Poggio Pietricci permit have confirmed precious and base metals in the historic
resource and in the immediate area.


Work carried out in the 1980s on the Faggio Scritto prospect, astride the Poggio
Pietricci and Faggio Scritto tenements indicated the presence of over 2.8Mt of
ore grading 0.77% Sb. This translates into 21,000t of antimony metal and
includes a higher-grade zone of about 465,000t grading 1.58% Sb. The unmined
near-surface mineralization is open in several directions (See News Releases of
June 13, 2007 and February 4, 2008). The permits also contain the historical
Macchia Casella mine which reportedly produced over 1,100 tons of Sb metal from
high-grade ore (greater than 10%) between 1939 and 1953. The I Salaioli, 366 Ha
permit, contains a reported 35,000t grading 1.5% Sb historic Antimony resource.
(See the Company's March 27th, 2007 news release.)


Historical resource estimates are non-conformable with National Instrument
43-101, "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Deposits". The historical reports
have not yet been independently verified by the Company and the Company is not
relying upon them. The objective of this drilling programme is to confirm and,
possibly, extend the historical resource to provide a NI 43-101 compliant
resource. 


Dr. Mehmet Taner, a Qualified Person under the guidelines of National Instrument
43-101, has reviewed and approved the geological information contained in this
news release.


Current World Antimony Resources Forecasted to be Exhausted in 8 Years. A recent
infographic produced by the BBC of estimated reserves of the world's
non-renewable resources forecasted currently identified reserves of antimony
will be exhausted in eight years time. Please see the BBC infographic at

Adroit Resources President Graeme Rowland said: "We are very pleased that the
environmental impact study has been completed and that it has been submitted for
public approval. Faggio Scritto and Poggio Pietricci have a much larger
historical resource than I Salaioli and our field work suggests that these could
be greatly increased. We are eager to get the drilling started to produce NI
43-101 compliant resources and move forward to production as quickly as
possible."
