APD Advanced Primary Minerals Corporation

Advanced Primary Minerals Corporation (the "Corporation" or "APM") (TSX VENTURE: APD) announced today that its application for a Conditional Use Permit to mine kaolin from its Cofer and surrounding properties in the Margarets Road area of McDuffie County, Georgia was denied by the McDuffie County Board of Commissioners at a meeting held the evening of October 18, 2011.

This decision does not affect the ability of the Corporation to supply products to its existing customers where it will continue to source the kaolin for these products from the Corporation's Tudor Mine. The permit was being sought to add to the Corporation's permitted resource base for strategic purposes. The Corporation's Board of Directors is in the process of evaluating its options in light of this decision, which includes filing an appeal of the decision with the McDuffie County Superior Court or selling some or all of the 328 acre property. Alternatively, the Corporation could choose to retain this land for re-application at a later date.

The Corporation also announced today that it has entered into an Agreement of Purchase and Sale to sell land and building representing its laboratory and pilot plant in Eatonton, Georgia for US$350,000, which was a non-core asset. This Agreement is not conditional on financing and is subject to the usual conditions associated with real estate transactions in the State of Georgia. The transaction is expected to close on or before November 8, 2011.
