MBMI RESOURCES INC. COMPANY PROFILE
MBMI Resources Inc. is a Canadian-based mining company focused on the exploration and development
of nickel mineral properties in the Philippines. MBMI and its partners control nine nickel laterite projects
in the Philippines, covering an area greater than 22,000 hectares. MBMI's objective is to become a major
supplier of high-grade nickel material to primary industrial consumers in Asia.
The Company's Philippine partners were granted Small Scale Mining Operating permits for the Alpha
nickel property in Narra, Philippines which have enabled the evaluation, extraction, testing, and sales of
nickel raw materials to Asian industrial consumers
In June of 2010 the Company announced the approval of a consolidated Financial and Technical Assis-
tance Agreement (FTAA) with the Philippine Government which allows large-scale exploration, devel-
opment and utilization of minerals on the four (4) properties on Palawan, Philippines.
Projects’ Overview
All of MBMI's properties are located in the Philippines and are within the known nickel geological trends
that contain and/or produce raw nickel materials. Each of the properties has had historic exploration ac-
tivity which has confirmed the presence of nickel mineralization.
The Company is focused on identifying and developing high-grade nickel zones which can support Direct
Shipping Operations ("DSO"). Under DSO, nickel laterite material is excavated and the resultant product
is segregated according to grade. The material is then air dried to reduce the moisture content and
blended to meet customer specifications. The blended material is then loaded on barges for transfer to
ocean-going bulk ore freighters for sale to nickel processing plants. The material is sold for a percentage
of the nickel price as stated by the London Metal Exchange ("LME").

ALPHA
The most advanced project in the Company's portfolio, the Alpha Project is located in the central region
of the island Province of Palawan approximately 660km southwest of the Philippine capital of Manila.
Drilling and exploration was conducted during the 1970's by Pacific Metals Company (Pamco) of Japan,
Olympic Mining and Development Corp. and its affiliates, and in 2001 by BHP Billiton's Queensland
Nickel Pty Ltd. of Australia. Evaluation of historic drill results and geological data on the Alpha property
has allowed MBMI'S Philippine partners to identify primary drilling and excavation targets.
The Company's Philippine partners have been granted three Small Scale Mining Operating permits for the
Alpha nickel property which allow for the extraction of up to 150,000 dry metric tonnes of nickel bearing
material per year. All necessary permits have been granted in respect to the Small Scale Mining Opera-
tions and MBMI, through its Philippine partner Narra Nickel Development Corporation, is currently ex-
cavating, stockpiling and shipping mineralized nickel laterite material for sale to Asian consumers.
Construction and development of operational infrastructure commenced in April, 2007. An initial seven
kilometre long road from the excavation site down to the stockyard area on the coast was completed in
July, 2007, and an area greater than forty hectares in size was prepared adjacent to the completed port
facility to allow for the sorting, drying and stockpiling of nickel material. An extension to the coastal port
causeway added a 265 metre pier complete with a thirty metre turnaround to accommodate the simulta-
neous loading of up to three large material handling barges. The Alpha compound also includes an opera-
tions base with administration office complex, sample preparation and assay laboratory, screening and
crushing facilities as well as a nursery for Environmental Impact Assessment rehabilitation purposes.
To date, the Company has shipped and sold nickel material at an average grade of 1.85% nickel to Asian
consumers. Additional nickel bearing material has been excavated from the Alpha property and is cur-
rently being dried and sorted at the coastal Stockyard. In April, 2009 the Company received and filed a
National Instrument 43-101 (NI 43-101) resource estimate for the property.
In June of 2010 the Company announced the approval of a Financial and Technical Assistance Agree-
ment (FTAA) with the Philippine Government which allows large-scale exploration, development and
utilization of minerals on the property for a term of 25 years (renewable for additional 25 years).
BETHELEM
Located near the Alpha property, the Bethlehem nickel project comprises an area of 3,402 hectares in the
municipality of Narra; approximately 99 kilometres southwest of Puerto Princessa city on the Philippine
island of Palawan. The Bethlehem property has been the target of exploration by a number of companies
since the 1970's, including BHP Billiton's Queensland Nickel Pty Ltd. in 2001. MBMI entered into a joint
venture with Olympic Mines and Development Corporation in 2004, and in 2006 completed a resource
inventory that confirmed mineralization trends. The Company is currently working on an initial resource
estimate for the property.
In June of 2010 the Company announced the approval of a Financial and Technical Assistance Agree-
ment (FTAA) with the Philippine Government which allows large-scale exploration, development and
utilization of minerals on the property for a term of 25 years (renewable for additional 25 years).

RIO TUBA
Located on the southerly portion of the island of Palawan, the Malatgao and Northern Rio Tuba proper-
ties (collectively the Rio Tuba project) cover an area in excess of 8,900 hectares.
Rio Tuba is a joint venture between MBMI and Olympic Mines and Development Corporation. The
properties are contiguous to Sumitomo Metal Mining Co. Ltd's recently commissioned "Coral Bay"
Ferro-nickel project which has mined and shipped nickel material for over twenty-five years. Permitting
and exploration is focused on the potential for Direct Shipping nickel laterite material from these proper-
ties. Mine planning and engineering evaluations are in progress and drill targets have been identified.
In June of 2010 the Company announced the approval of a Financial and Technical Assistance Agree-
ment (FTAA) with the Philippine Government which allows large-scale exploration, development and
utilization of minerals on both properties for a term of 25 years (renewable for additional 25 years).
DINAGAT ISLAND
The Dinagat Island project provides MBMI Resources with an opportunity to assume an alternate role in
the production process. The Company has entered into a long-term Purchase Agreement for mineral ma-
terials produced from the property, and in return will provide financial and technical services as well as
marketing and transaction services with respect to the liquidation of the mineral products produced. In
addition, MBMI will provide pre-export financing for the project which will be secured by the nickel
product stockpiles from the property. The agreement term is for the life of the exploration, development,
and utilization of the property.
The counterparty to this agreement holds a Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA) located
within the Philippine Government designated Surigao Mineral Reservation and is at an advanced stage in
the approval process for all required permits to commence excavation.
SAMAR
MBMI has the right to earn up to a 92% interest in four advanced exploration nickel projects encompass-
ing 10,150 hectares located in the southeastern region of the island of Samar, Philippines.
These four projects have historic (non NI 43-101 compliant) resource estimates and will be the subject of
future exploration programs. Location and existent infrastructure in the project area would require up-
grades to facilitate ground access should the projects return successful results from initial drilling explora-
tion.

MBMI Advances Exploration Drilling And Excavation Programs
February 09, 2011
Vancouver, B.C., February 09, 2011 - MBMI RESOURCES INC. ("MBMI" or the "Company")
(MBR:TSXV) reports that further to its recently completed $5 million financing, and the securing of a $7
million advance payment announced November 29, 2010, the company anticipates exploration and de-
velopment activities at the Alpha and Bethlehem Palawan Properties to accelerate.
A drilling contractor has been engaged, drilling targets selected and an exploration drilling program on the
Alpha property is set to commence shortly that will expand drilling beyond the limits of the 60 hectare
small scale mining area previously permitted. Initial exploration has identified accessible high-grade, ex-
posed nickel and chrome materials zones within the 3200 hectare property. The drill program objective is
to expand currently delineated areas and confirm sufficient resources for supporting development opera-
tions.
Excavating, heavy earth moving equipment and haulage trucks have been ordered and first deliveries are
expected to arrive at site this month. Environmental programs are being completed where multiple silta-
tion ponds and catchment dams have been constructed protecting the areas that might be affected by
potential development of the Alpha property.
A 43-101 resource estimate is anticipated to be completed this year on the adjacent 3200 hectare Bethle-
hem nickel property based on results of the Company's previously completed drilling program. MBMI is
currently completing internal geological modeling work to provide to an independent geological consult-
ing group for verification of initial resource estimates.
MBMI is focused on the exploration and development of nickel mineral properties and with its Philippine
partners holds a Financial or Technical Assistance Agreement ("FTAA") with the Philippine government
12
12.
with respect to the Alpha, Bethlehem and Rio Tuba properties. The FTAA will allow MBMI and its Phil-
ippine Partners to progress toward development of full-scale operational programs at each property.
MBMI and its Philippine partners have an interest in nine nickel laterite projects in the Philippines, cover-
ing an area greater than 22,000 hectares. MBMI's objective is to become a major supplier of high-grade
nickel products to primary industrial consumers in Asia.

Forward-Looking Statements
This website contains forward-looking statements, including but not limited to comments regarding pre-
dictions and projections. Forward-looking statements address future events and conditions and therefore
involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those currently antici-
pated in such statements.
This website uses the terms "inferred resources", "indicated resources" and "mineral resources". The
Company advises readers that although these terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities
regulations (under National Instrument 43-101 "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects"), the US
Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. Readers are cautioned not to as-
sume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves.
In addition, "inferred resources" have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and economic
and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that any part of an Indicated or Inferred Mineral Resource will
ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred Mineral Resources
may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, or economic studies except for a Prelimi-
nary Assessment as defined under National Instrument 43-101. Readers are cautioned not to assume that
part or all of an inferred resource exists, or is economically or legally mineable.
Third Party Links

pany. The viewer should be aware that in linking to these outside websites, he or she is leaving the MBMI
web site and that MBMI is not responsible for the content of any other site.
