EAS East Asia Minerals Corporation

East Asia Minerals Corporation (TSX VENTURE:EAS) ("East Asia Minerals" or "the
Company") announces that it is restarting exploration at its Miwah Project
located in Aceh Province of Indonesia. The Company announced on January 8, 2013,
that it has received extensions of its licences (IUPs) at Miwah until November
30, 2014. 


East Asia Minerals project geologists will begin with the onsite compilation of
detailed geological and geotechnical field maps of the three Miwah IUPs and the
Tangse IUP. These field maps will be evaluated and interpreted with the aim of
providing mineralization extension targets both along strike and down dip at
Miwah and initial scouting drill hole targets at Tangse. The new targets
generated by the interpretation of this mapping shall be added to the 12,000
metres of drilling planned in the 2013 drilling program at the Miwah Project. 


"We are very pleased to resume exploration at Miwah," said Ed Rochette, CEO of
East Asia Minerals. "While we have previously identified a significant resource
here, there were still several areas that required follow-up. This new
exploration will help us understand the extent of the mineralization and the
potential of further drilling to add to the resource base." 


The Company is also working with several levels of government to change the
forestry classification at parts of the Miwah Project. The Tangse IUP is not
subject to any forestry classification restrictions. 


Miwah is an epithermal gold project located on the northern tip of Sumatra
Island in the province of Aceh in Indonesia. In May 2011, the Company completed
an NI 43-101 technical report on the property, which identified an Inferred
Resource of 3.14 million ounces of gold and 8.95 million ounces of silver in
near and at surface mineralization. The resource estimate was made using a 0.20
grams per tonne gold cut-off and an estimated 103.9 million tonne resource
averaging 0.94 grams per tonne of gold and 2.68 grams per tonne of silver.
