Nitinat Minerals Corporation ("Nitinat" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:NZZ)
would like to announce that it intends to raise gross proceeds of up to $3
million through a non-brokered private placement of up to 10 million units (the
"Units") of the Company at a price of $0.30 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of
one (1) common share and one (1) common share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each
Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $0.40
for a period of two (2) years from date of issuance. A finder's fee may be paid
by the Company in connection with the private placement.


The non-brokered private placement is subject to all necessary regulatory
approvals. The securities being issued in the private placement will be subject
to a four-month hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities
laws.


Nitinat intends to use the net proceeds to (i) increase its ownership in
Techniton LLC to 18% through its wholly owned subsidiary, Taman Petroleum
Corporation ("Taman") (ii) to fund its ongoing exploration work on its Jasper
Property and (iii) for general working capital.


Techniton LLC ("Techniton") is a Russian private company which owns 100% of the
South Temryuk Oil & Gas Exploration-Exploitation Licence located in the mature
Azov-Kuban petroleum region of southwest Russia (the "Project").


FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING INFORMATION RELATING TO THE TEMRYUK OIL & GAS
EXPLORATION-EXPLOITATION LICENCE, THE CORPORATION IS RELYING ON HISTORICAL
INFORMATION. ALL INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE TEMRYUK OIL & GAS
EXPLORATION-EXPLOITATION LICENCE WAS DERIVED FROM HISTORICAL GEOLOGICAL REPORTS
AND HAS NOT BEEN VERIFIED.


About the Project South Temryuk Oil & Gas Exploration-Exploitation Licence

The Project is situated four kilometres south of the community of Temryuk
(Krasnodar Krai Russia), located between the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. The
Azov-Kuban petroleum basin region is a mature oil and gas producing region with
ready access to both pipelines and ocean tankers. The South Temryuk license is
sandwiched between two mature producing oilfields, the Kurchanskoye and the
Strelchanskoye; controlled by the major petroleum company Rosneft. Reports
indicate that estimated historical production from Kurchanskoye is 80 million
barrels (mmb) of oil and 170 billion cubic feet (bcf) of natural gas, while
Strelchanskoye production estimates are 30 mmb oil and 30 bcf natural gas. In
March 2008, well 'ST-1' was drilled on the Project to a depth of 3,840 metres,
targeting priority geophysical anomalies which are the projected equivalents to
regional production horizons. The well confirmed the presence of the main Sarmat
oil horizon and also discovered the deeper Chokrak gas condensate horizon.
Proposed near term work will re-evaluate well ST-1. Additionally, the Project
has a number of other untested geological-geophysical targets which offer future
exploration targets.


Azov-Kuban Petroleum Basin

The Azov-Kuban Petroleum Basin encompasses about 161,000 square kilometers
northeast of the Black Sea, in both southeast Ukraine and southwest Russia. In
June 2011, the U.S. Geological Survey, using a geology-based assessment
methodology, estimated mean volumes of technically recoverable, conventional,
undiscovered petroleum resources at 218 million barrels of crude oil, 4.1
trillion cubic feet of natural gas, and 94 million barrels of natural gas
liquids for the Azov-Kuban Basin (USGS Fact Sheet 2011-3052). Note that this
estimate is for the basin as a whole and does not address the economic
recoverability of these estimated resources.
