Notice of AGM and Update on Quarterly Reporting

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - April 22, 2013) - Anglo Pacific Group PLC (the "Company") (LSE:APF)(TSX:APY) announces the publication of its Notice of the 2013 Annual General Meeting (the "Notice") on the Company's website, www.anglopacificgroup.com.

The 2013 Annual General Meeting will be held at The Royal Institution of Great Britain, 21 Albemarle Street, London W1S 4BS, United Kingdom on Wednesday May 22, 2013 at 10:00am.

A hard copy version of the Notice and the Form of Proxy will be sent to those shareholders who have elected to continue to receive paper communications today.

Update on Quarterly Reporting

The Company, as a "designated foreign issuer" ("DFI") under Ontario securities laws, is generally permitted to satisfy Canadian continuous disclosure requirements by complying with the equivalent United Kingdom continuous disclosure requirements. This includes, for example, preparing interim financial statements covering a six-month period rather than a quarterly period (as is required of domestic Canadian issuers).

Notwithstanding the rules applying to DFIs, in 2011, the Company began quarterly reporting on a voluntary basis. The Directors of the Company have now determined that the Company will cease filing public quarterly reports, and will revert to the half-yearly financial reporting, as required by and in accordance with applicable United Kingdom requirements, and as is permitted under Ontario securities laws for a DFI.
