Nautilus Issues Statement to Clarify Recent Press Coverage 
 
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Aug. 29, 2012) - Nautilus Minerals Inc. (TSX:NUS)(OTCQX:NUSMF)(AIM:NUS) ("Company" or "Nautilus") seeks to clarify recent statements and press coverage regarding the Company's Solwara 1 Project. 
 
The Company reiterates that the Mining Lease was granted by the State of Papua New Guinea in January 2011 and is not a recent development as has been reported in some news articles. 
 
Further, in a recent interview, Mr. Stephen Rogers, the CEO of the Company, was referenced as saying that Nautilus is in talks with potential partners to sell a stake in the Project and that Nautilus may sell shares to help raise $100 million if it can't find a partner. 
 
Nautilus will only determine its precise additional funding requirements when it has finalized details of the vessel financing and secures a resolution to the current dispute with the PNG government. The Company continues its efforts on both these matters. The Project equipment build at the end of June was approximately 51% complete. Consistent with Mr. Roger's statements above, the Company has stated previously in "Management's Discussion and Analysis" filed in conjunction with Financial Results on August 2, 2012, that it may need to rely on the equity markets for future financing of its development of Solwara 1 or alternate financing in the form of joint ventures. 
 
The Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis have been filed on www.sedar.com and are also available on the Company's website www.nautilusminerals.com/s/Investors-Financials.asp.

Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information include, but are not limited to statements or information with respect to additional capital requirements and possible joint venture arrangements. We have made numerous assumptions about the material forward-looking statements and information contained herein, including among other things, the status of the dispute with the State of PNG and current vessel related negotiations. Even though our management believes that the assumptions made and the expectations represented by such statements or information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statement or information will prove to be accurate. Forward-looking statements and information by their nature involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or information. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among others, resolution of the dispute with the State of PNG and completion of vessel negotiations. Should one or more of these risks, uncertainties or other factors materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in forward-looking statements and information. Although we have attempted to identify factors that would cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements and information, there may be other factors that cause actual results, performances, achievements or events to not be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Also, many of the factors are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements or information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements or information.
