CGNPC-URC Possible Offer Discussions

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN ANNOUNCEMENT OF A FIRM INTENTION TO
MAKE AN OFFER UNDER RULE 2.7 OF THE CITY CODE ON TAKEOVERS AND MERGERS. THERE
CAN BE NO CERTAINTY THAT ANY OFFER WILL BE MADE NOR AS TO THE TERMS OF ANY
OFFER

On 10 May 2011 CGNPC Uranium Resources Co., Ltd. ("CGNPC-URC") announced the
withdrawal of its possible offer for Kalahari (that was announced on 7 March
2011). As a consequence of the announcement of 10 May 2011 CGNPC-URC was bound
by both the restrictions of Rule 2.8, save for certain reservations detailed in
that announcement, and of Note 2 on Rule 2.5 of the City Code on Takeovers and
Mergers (the "Code").

As a result of CGNPC-URC's announcement on 10 May 2011, under Rule 2.8 of the
Code CGNPC-URC is only permitted to announce an offer for the Company before 11
November 2011 with the agreement or recommendation of the Board of Kalahari,
unless any of the other reservations contained in that announcement release
CGNPC-URC from the restrictions of Rule 2.8 before 11 November 2011.

Following recent press speculation, Kalahari confirms it re-commenced
discussions with CGNPC-URC and agreed to release CGNPC-URC from the
restrictions of Rule 2.8 while these discussions are ongoing, with the
intention of reaching agreement on a recommended offer for the entire issued
share capital of the Company.

However, these discussions may or may not lead to an offer being made.

Since more than 3 months have elapsed since the announcement by CGNPC-URC of
the withdrawal of its possible offer, CGNPC-URC is no longer restricted by Note
2 on Rule 2.5 of the Code, to make an offer on the same or better terms as
those in the announcement of 7 March 2011, and therefore there can be no
certainty as to the terms of any offer should an offer be made.

In view of the fact that CGNPC-URC remains subject to Rule 2.8 of the Code
until 11 November 2011, the Panel Executive has agreed that the 28 day deadline
normally imposed by Rule 2.6(a) of the Code shall not apply at this stage.

In accordance with Rule 2.10 of the Code, the Company confirms that it has
250,765,894 ordinary shares of 1 pence each in issue. The ISIN reference for
these securities is GB00B117S132.
