Axmin Inc. announced that following the July meetings in the Central African Republic, the company has hired two new members of management to be permanently stationed in the Bangui office of the company in the CAR: Mr. Jiang Lifei, Vice President and CAR Country Manager; and, Ms. Celine Li, Assistant to the CEO. Both Mr. Jiang and Ms. Li are experienced in working in the French West African environment and will be working closely with the company's representatives in the CAR to facilitate the advancement of the Passendro project.

The company provided an update on its operations in the Central African Republic. Passendro Gold Project: On August 29, 2013, the company received a letter dated August 19, 2013 from the Government of the CAR stating that the company is in violation of certain provisions of the April 29, 2009 Mining Code. Specifically, the Government is purporting that there has been an assignment of the 25-year Mining Licence held by SOMIO Toungou SA, a wholly owned CAR registered subsidiary of the company, in breach of the Mining Code. The Letter gives a formal notice of 60 days for the company to address the purported violation and, if the company fails to do so, the 25-year Mining Licence could be cancelled. The company understands that other mining companies operating in the CAR received similar letters. Bambari 1 and 2 Exploration Licences: The Bambari 1 and 2 Exploration Licences held by Aurafrique SARL, a wholly owned CAR registered subsidiary of the company, were subject to renewal on or before August 7, 2013. Due to the current political environment in the CAR, the company has not yet filed applications for the renewal of those Exploration Licences. The company is in ongoing discussions with the Government regarding the filing of the renewal applications and intends to file them in the near future.
