Khan Resources Inc : December 11, 2012 Khan Update on International Arbitration

The seven volumes total approximately 500 pages of documentation of the claim itself along with thousands of pages of supporting documentation. The documentation includes two independent valuation reports; one by Raymond James Ltd. and one by the Berkeley Research Group. Also included is a report by an independent legal expert on Mongolian law in support of Khan's claim.

The Government of Mongolia is allowed until April 5, 2013 to formulate their response to the Company's claim and then Khan will have until June 28, 2013 to respond to the Government's defense. The Tribunal will meet from November 11 through to November 15, 2013, to hear the claim and their ruling would be expected in the first half of the subsequent year.

Mr. Grant Edey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Khan, commented "While the process of International Arbitration is long - we initiated our suit in January 2011 - we remain confident in a favourable outcome and that we will receive value for our investments in Mongolia."

Khan intends to pursue, to the limit of international law, the judgement and collection of the damage award.
