Vancouver, British Columbia

Flinders Resources Limited (formerly Tasex Capital Limited) (“Flinders” or the “Company”) (TSXV – FDR), is pleased to announce that on February 22, 2012, the Company completed its qualifying transaction (the “Qualifying Transaction”) with Burke Resources Limited (“Burke”), an arm’s length party to the Company, as described in the Company’s filing statement dated January 31, 2012 (the “Filing Statement”).

At the opening of the market on February 27, 2012, Flinders will graduate from being a capital pool company on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”), and commence trading on the TSXV under its new name Flinders Resources Limited as a Tier 1 mining issuer under the symbol “FDR”.

Flinders’ representatives will be present at booth 3304 at PDAC, March 4-7, 2012, and warmly invite investors to come see us to find out more about the Company.

Qualifying Transaction – Kringelgruvan Graphite Project

Flinders completed the Qualifying Transaction by closing the transactions contemplated by the amalgamation agreement (the “Agreement”) dated October 31, 2011 between the Company, Burke and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Subco”). Pursuant to the Agreement, Flinders acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Burke by way of an amalgamation of Burke and Subco to form Flinders Holdings Limited (“Flinders Holdings”), a now wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Flinders Holdings is the 100% owner of Kringelgruvan AB (formerly Woxna Graphite AB) (“Kringelgruvan”), a private Swedish company. Kringelgruvan holds 100% ownership of the Kringel Graphite Mine, a unique and strategic European graphite project in central Sweden. The graphite market has drawn strong investor interest as prices have risen in the last 12 months, due to restrictions on graphite exported from China, the dominant global supplier, and the rapid growth in graphite consumption as new applications emerge. The EU considers graphite as a commodity with a high economic importance and with appreciable supply risks. The EU is up to 95% dependent on graphite imports, mainly from China.

Each Finder’s Warrant is exercisable at a price of $0.75 per share for a term of two years from the date of issue.

Flinders anticipates using the proceeds of the Offering to advance the Kringel Graphite Mine toward re-opening in 2013. for This shall include resource drilling, development of a mining plan, evaluation of process plant refurbishment options and upgrading tailings and waste water management facilities,. as well as for costs incurred with respect to closing the Qualifying Transaction and for general corporate working capital expenditures.
