Alexander applies to the British Columbia Securities Commission

to cease being a reporting issuer in Canada

Alexander Mining plc ("Alexander" or the "Company") announced today that it has applied for a decision from the securities regulatory authority in British Columbia, the British Columbia Securities Commission, as principal regulator, that it is no longer a reporting issuer in British Columbia and Alberta.

Alexander is not a reporting issuer in any other Canadian jurisdiction.

If the requested decision is made by the British Columbia Securities Commission, the Company will cease being a reporting issuer in any jurisdiction in Canada and, as a result, will no longer be required to file financial statements and other continuous disclosure documents with Canadian securities regulatory authorities.

Notwithstanding a decision that the Company is not a reporting issuer in Canada, Alexander will continue to file all financial statements and other continuous disclosure materials required to be filed by the Company in accordance with applicable laws and regulations of the United Kingdom, including rules of the Alternative Investment Market. All such continuous disclosure documents of the Company are publicly available to all Alexander security holders on the investor page of the Company's website at www.alexandermining.com and Alexander security holders resident in Canada will continue to receive copies of continuous disclosure documents that are required to be delivered to security holders in the United Kingdom, in the same manner and at the same time as is required under the applicable laws and regulations in the United Kingdom, including the rules of the Alternative Investment Market.
