Serengeti Files Kwanika NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/04/13 -- Serengeti Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: SIR)(FRANKFURT: 34S) announces that it has filed on SEDAR an independent NI-43-101 technical report outlining the results of a Preliminary Economic

Assessment ("PEA") on its 100% owned Kwanika project located in North Central British Columbia, Canada. The results of the PEA, previously released on February 6th, 2013 (NR: 2013-01) demonstrate the potential technical and economic viability of establishing a new copper-gold mine/mill complex on the property.

"We are very pleased to have completed this initial scoping study for the Kwanika project," stated David W. Moore, President and CEO. "This is the first step in demonstrating project scope and economics. Importantly, the independent consultant has also concluded that there is potential to further improve project economics particularly through optimization of the Central Zone open pit and underground mine plan as well as a number of other internal project opportunities. This PEA optimization can be done using existing data."

The NI-43-101 technical report authored by J.H. Gray, P. Eng., and Heather Robillard, P. Eng. of Moose Mountain Technical Services, has now been filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and is also available on Serengeti's website at www.serengetiresources.com. Other experts contributing to this study include David Rennie, P. Eng., of RPA Inc., who has completed three NI 43-101 resource assessment reports for the property, AMEC Consulting who produced a Caveability Assessment of the Kwanika Project.

The PEA highlights are as follows:

--  Pre-tax NPV 5% of CDN $263 million, 13.4% IRR, 13.5 year mine life.
--  Life of mine (LOM) payable production of 545 million pounds copper,
    489,000 ounces gold, 2.45 million ounces silver and 5.25 million pounds
    molybdenum.
--  Initial capital cost of CDN $364 million plus LOM sustaining capital of
    $144 million for a 15,000 tpd (5.5 million tpa) mill and combined open
    pit, underground mining operation.
--  A large mineralized envelope exists outside of the resource currently
    included in the mine plan presenting an opportunity to expand the
    operation or extend the current projected mine life at some point in the
    future.

The Company also reports that it has been advised by Xstrata Canada Corporation that it has elected to continue its option on the Ping claims one of six properties in their original option agreement and currently plans to drill test at least one target on the property in spring 2013. The Ping claims are jointly owned by Serengeti and Fjordland Exploration Inc.

This document contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities regulations. All statements other than statements of historical fact herein, including, without limitation, statements regarding exploration plans and other future plans and objectives, are forward-looking statements that involve various risks and uncertainties. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate and future events and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are disclosed in the Company's documents filed from time to time via SEDAR with the Canadian regulatory agencies to whose policies we are bound. A comprehensive list of risk factors is provided in the Company's Annual Information Form ("AIF") for the year ended February 29, 2012 and filed on SEDAR on July 11, 2012. Readers are further advised not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All mineralized material classified as Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources was considered in the mine plan. The PEA is preliminary in nature and it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic consideration applied to them that would enable them to be characterized as mineral reserves. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability and there is no certainty that the results of the PEA will be realized.
