FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Prima Fluorspar Corp. Enters Into LOI to Acquire Controlling Interest
in a Mongolian Fluorspar Mining Company
Resulting in an RTO by Affiliates of Firebird Management LLC
TORONTO, ONTARIO (September 3, 2013) Prima Fluorspar Corp. (TSX-V:PF) (“Prima” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that on August 30, 2013 it entered into a non-binding letter of
intent with three funds managed by affiliates of New York-based Firebird Management LLC (“Firebird”),
to negotiate the purchase of holding companies through which Firebird controls it 99.8% ownership
stake in Berkh Uul JSC (Mongolian Stock Exchange: BEU; Bloomberg code: BEU MO; “Berkh Uul”), which
owns the high grade, large resource Delgerkhan fluorspar mine (“Delgerkhan”) in the Khentii Province of
Mongolia. The transaction, which will be at arm’s length, assuming that final terms are agreed to by
both parties, the execution of binding agreements, and that all conditions precedent to closing are met,
would result in Firebird acquiring a controlling stake in Prima, which would emerge as a significant
fluorspar company with a diversified portfolio of fluorspar assets. The transaction will be considered a
reverse takeover (RTO) of Prima by Firebird, and will result in Prima’s stock being halted from trading
until TSX Venture Exchange conditions have been met.
Transaction Highlights
Historic high grade fluorspar asset with an indicated resource of 6.6 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2
and an inferred resource of 3 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2;
China, Berkh Uul’s target market is expected to be a net importer of fluorspar which will support
attractive long term fluorspar market fundamentals;
Prima’s 100%-owned Liard Fluorspar Property (“Liard”) a development property in British
Columbia, Canada provides geographic diversification while maintaining pure-play fluorspar
exposure; and
Experienced management team and strong industry partnerships set to drive rapid process
execution.
The transaction will be subject to various conditions, including but not limited to:
Indicative valuations being performed on each of the Berkh Uul project and Prima, and Prima to
issue shares for the Berkh Uul fluorspar assets; the terms and agreements of each are to be
negotiated;
Prima required to raise a minimum of $6,000,000 in financing for the Berkh Uul project;
Prima shareholders to approve transaction before closing; and,
TSX-V Exchange approval.
President and CEO of Prima, Robert Bick commented, “As a result of a disciplined sourcing approach, we
identified the Berkh Uul as an ideal acquisition target. This transaction provides the potential for Prima
to become a near-term producer. The consolidation of the Delgerkhan mine in Mongolia with our Liard
Fluorspar Property in Canada will position Prima as a potential global fluorspar producer and supplier.”

Firebird Management LLC
Berkh Uul is super-majority owned by affiliates of Firebird Management LLC, a New York-based, SEC-
registered private American company that manages four private funds dedicated to investment in
equities of publicly traded companies operating in Russia and early stage Eastern European countries, as
well as two global portfolio equity funds and two funds dedicated to local Mongolian securities.
The net cumulative return for the Firebird Fund since inception in 1994 is 4,543% and a net cumulative
return since inception in 1996 of 2,357% for the Firebird New Russia Fund.
Berkh Uul JSC
Berkh Uul is a Mongolian-based fluorspar resource company established in 1954 with six mining licenses
in jurisdictions displaying a significant presence of fluorspar. The most prolific is the Delgerkhan mine
which was actively mined from the early 1980’s to 2008. A technical report resource estimation
prepared by Micromine Proprietary Limited (“Micromine”) completed in August 2012, which stated that
it was prepared in compliance with NI 43-101, reported an indicated resource of 6.6 million tonnes @
33.7% CaF2 and an inferred resource of 3 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2.
Berkh Uul has been listed on the Mongolian Stock Exchange (“MSE”) since 2006 under the symbol BEU.
Firebird acquired a controlling stake in Berkh Uul in 2011.
Reopening the Delgerkhan Mine
The Delgerkhan mine is currently being prepared to reopen with initial production expected in 2014
with annual production targeted at approximately 120,000 tonnes. Relative to other fluorspar assets,
and based on historical data, Delgerkhan has the potential to be one of the highest grade producing
fluorspar mines in the world. Upon completion of this acquisition Prima is positioned to be a significant
fluorspar producer. In addition to reopening the Delgerkhan Mine, Prima will continue to advance
development of its flagship Canadian asset, the Liard Fluorspar Property.
Historical Data Regarding the Delgerkhan Fluorspar Mine: The Micromine technical report is very
recent and no additional work has been done on the Berkh Uul properties since the completion of the
report. We therefore consider that the report is very reliable and very relevant. However, as the report
was not prepared for Prima, it is required under NI 43-101 to be updated and until then, we are not
treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.
Non-Brokered Private Placement for Liard Fluorspar Project
Prima has arranged a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 10,000,000 Units (the “Units”)
of the Company at a price of $0.10 per Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each Unit will consist of
one common share and one common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant will be
exercisable into one common share at $0.15 for a period of 24 months from closing.
The Company also announces a private placement financing of up to 8,333,333 flow-through units (the
“FT Units”) of the Company at a price of $0.12 per FT Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each FT Unit
will consist of one flow-through common share and one half non flow-through common share purchase
warrant. Each whole warrant, (a “Warrant”) will be exercisable into one common share at $0.18 for a
period of 12 months from closing.
Proceeds from the private placements will be used to conduct exploration on the Company’s Liard
Fluorspar property and for general working capital.

Tel: 604.681.1568 Fax: 604.681.8240 www.primafluorspar.com
The private placements remain subject to the final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the
“TSXv”). Finder’s fees may be payable in accordance with the policies of the TSXv. The securities issued
will be subject to a four-month hold period.
In conjunction with the proposed transaction, Prima has agreed to the issuance of 200,000 stock options
to a metallurgist and mining engineer that has been engaged to assist in the completion of due diligence
on the Delgerkhan property. The stock options have an exercise price of $0.10, vest on December 20,
2013 and expire on August 20, 2018.
About Fluorspar
Fluorspar is the commercial name for fluorite (CaF2). It is an industrial material that is primarily used in
the production of hydrofluoric acid, fluorocarbons, (aerosols, refrigerants etc.), fluoropolymers (Teflon),
aluminum smelting, steel production, and the refinement of petroleum, uranium and concrete.
The worldwide market for fluorspar is estimated at $2.4 billion. China is currently the global leader in
fluorspar production and consumption. However, China has been steadily decreasing its exports of
fluorspar leaving the global supply constrained. Europe and the US Department of Defence have
designated fluorspar as a strategic commodity due to projected long term supply shortfalls, which have
created an attractive opportunity for new entrants in the industry to fill the deficit.
Highlights about Prima’s Liard Fluorspar Property
Liard has the potential to become a major supplier of Fluorspar to the USA and Canada, both strategic
markets for Fluorspar with limited access to supply. There are currently no commercial fluorspar
producers in Canada or the United States. Furthermore, there are no other fluorspar companies with
near term cash flow in Canada or United States.
3.2 million tonnes at an average grade of 32% fluorspar; Mineralization at surface, quarry mining
potential;
30 km strike length;
Metallurgical Testing: 97% CaF2;
22,500 ha (55,000 acres), 100%-owned claims; and
Easy access, on the Alaska Highway in British Columbia
Historical Data Regarding the Liard Fluorspar Property
Prima Fluorspar Corp. has not undertaken an independent verification to classify the historic resource
estimate quoted from a Mineral Potential Compilation Report for the BC Department of Economic
Development, written by Wright Engineers Limited and H.N. Halvorson Consultants Ltd., in January 17,
1975 as a current mineral resource. Neither has Prima independently verified the results of the previous
exploration work. Therefore, the historical mineral resource should not be relied upon, but the issuer
believes the information to be relevant and reasonably reliable. An unknown quantity of the 3.2 million
tonnes is on mineral claims outside of the current Liard Fluorspar Property. However, based on the
information available, the majority of the estimate is based on the deposits located on Prima’s Liard
Fluorspar Property. The key assumptions, parameters and methods of the resource estimate are
unknown at this time. New deposit definition drilling is needed to develop a current resource estimate
on the property. Prima believes that these historical mineral resources provide a conceptual indication
of the potential of the property and are relevant to ongoing exploration.

News Release: Prima Fluorspar Corp. Enters Into LOI to Acquire Controlling Interest in a Mongolian Fluorspar Mining Company Resulting in an RTO by Affiliates of Firebird Management LLC

  • 1. Suite 1450 – 789 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1H2 Tel: 604.681.1568 Fax: 604.681.8240 www.primafluorspar.com FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Prima Fluorspar Corp. Enters Into LOI to Acquire Controlling Interest in a Mongolian Fluorspar Mining Company Resulting in an RTO by Affiliates of Firebird Management LLC TORONTO, ONTARIO (September 3, 2013) Prima Fluorspar Corp. (TSX-V:PF) (“Prima” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that on August 30, 2013 it entered into a non-binding letter of intent with three funds managed by affiliates of New York-based Firebird Management LLC (“Firebird”), to negotiate the purchase of holding companies through which Firebird controls it 99.8% ownership stake in Berkh Uul JSC (Mongolian Stock Exchange: BEU; Bloomberg code: BEU MO; “Berkh Uul”), which owns the high grade, large resource Delgerkhan fluorspar mine (“Delgerkhan”) in the Khentii Province of Mongolia. The transaction, which will be at arm’s length, assuming that final terms are agreed to by both parties, the execution of binding agreements, and that all conditions precedent to closing are met, would result in Firebird acquiring a controlling stake in Prima, which would emerge as a significant fluorspar company with a diversified portfolio of fluorspar assets. The transaction will be considered a reverse takeover (RTO) of Prima by Firebird, and will result in Prima’s stock being halted from trading until TSX Venture Exchange conditions have been met. Transaction Highlights Historic high grade fluorspar asset with an indicated resource of 6.6 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2 and an inferred resource of 3 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2; China, Berkh Uul’s target market is expected to be a net importer of fluorspar which will support attractive long term fluorspar market fundamentals; Prima’s 100%-owned Liard Fluorspar Property (“Liard”) a development property in British Columbia, Canada provides geographic diversification while maintaining pure-play fluorspar exposure; and Experienced management team and strong industry partnerships set to drive rapid process execution. The transaction will be subject to various conditions, including but not limited to: Indicative valuations being performed on each of the Berkh Uul project and Prima, and Prima to issue shares for the Berkh Uul fluorspar assets; the terms and agreements of each are to be negotiated; Prima required to raise a minimum of $6,000,000 in financing for the Berkh Uul project; Prima shareholders to approve transaction before closing; and, TSX-V Exchange approval. President and CEO of Prima, Robert Bick commented, “As a result of a disciplined sourcing approach, we identified the Berkh Uul as an ideal acquisition target. This transaction provides the potential for Prima to become a near-term producer. The consolidation of the Delgerkhan mine in Mongolia with our Liard Fluorspar Property in Canada will position Prima as a potential global fluorspar producer and supplier.”

Suite 1450 – 789 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1H2 Tel: 604.681.1568 Fax: 604.681.8240 www.primafluorspar.com Firebird Management LLC Berkh Uul is super-majority owned by affiliates of Firebird Management LLC, a New York-based, SEC- registered private American company that manages four private funds dedicated to investment in equities of publicly traded companies operating in Russia and early stage Eastern European countries, as well as two global portfolio equity funds and two funds dedicated to local Mongolian securities. The net cumulative return for the Firebird Fund since inception in 1994 is 4,543% and a net cumulative return since inception in 1996 of 2,357% for the Firebird New Russia Fund. Berkh Uul JSC Berkh Uul is a Mongolian-based fluorspar resource company established in 1954 with six mining licenses in jurisdictions displaying a significant presence of fluorspar. The most prolific is the Delgerkhan mine which was actively mined from the early 1980’s to 2008. A technical report resource estimation prepared by Micromine Proprietary Limited (“Micromine”) completed in August 2012, which stated that it was prepared in compliance with NI 43-101, reported an indicated resource of 6.6 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2 and an inferred resource of 3 million tonnes @ 33.7% CaF2. Berkh Uul has been listed on the Mongolian Stock Exchange (“MSE”) since 2006 under the symbol BEU. Firebird acquired a controlling stake in Berkh Uul in 2011. Reopening the Delgerkhan Mine The Delgerkhan mine is currently being prepared to reopen with initial production expected in 2014 with annual production targeted at approximately 120,000 tonnes. Relative to other fluorspar assets, and based on historical data, Delgerkhan has the potential to be one of the highest grade producing fluorspar mines in the world. Upon completion of this acquisition Prima is positioned to be a significant fluorspar producer. In addition to reopening the Delgerkhan Mine, Prima will continue to advance development of its flagship Canadian asset, the Liard Fluorspar Property. Historical Data Regarding the Delgerkhan Fluorspar Mine: The Micromine technical report is very recent and no additional work has been done on the Berkh Uul properties since the completion of the report. We therefore consider that the report is very reliable and very relevant. However, as the report was not prepared for Prima, it is required under NI 43-101 to be updated and until then, we are not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. Non-Brokered Private Placement for Liard Fluorspar Project Prima has arranged a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 10,000,000 Units (the “Units”) of the Company at a price of $0.10 per Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each Unit will consist of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant will be exercisable into one common share at $0.15 for a period of 24 months from closing. The Company also announces a private placement financing of up to 8,333,333 flow-through units (the “FT Units”) of the Company at a price of $0.12 per FT Unit for gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Each FT Unit will consist of one flow-through common share and one half non flow-through common share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant, (a “Warrant”) will be exercisable into one common share at $0.18 for a period of 12 months from closing. Proceeds from the private placements will be used to conduct exploration on the Company’s Liard Fluorspar property and for general working capital.

Suite 1450 – 789 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1H2 Tel: 604.681.1568 Fax: 604.681.8240 www.primafluorspar.com The private placements remain subject to the final acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXv”). Finder’s fees may be payable in accordance with the policies of the TSXv. The securities issued will be subject to a four-month hold period. In conjunction with the proposed transaction, Prima has agreed to the issuance of 200,000 stock options to a metallurgist and mining engineer that has been engaged to assist in the completion of due diligence on the Delgerkhan property. The stock options have an exercise price of $0.10, vest on December 20, 2013 and expire on August 20, 2018. About Fluorspar Fluorspar is the commercial name for fluorite (CaF2). It is an industrial material that is primarily used in the production of hydrofluoric acid, fluorocarbons, (aerosols, refrigerants etc.), fluoropolymers (Teflon), aluminum smelting, steel production, and the refinement of petroleum, uranium and concrete. The worldwide market for fluorspar is estimated at $2.4 billion. China is currently the global leader in fluorspar production and consumption. However, China has been steadily decreasing its exports of fluorspar leaving the global supply constrained. Europe and the US Department of Defence have designated fluorspar as a strategic commodity due to projected long term supply shortfalls, which have created an attractive opportunity for new entrants in the industry to fill the deficit. Highlights about Prima’s Liard Fluorspar Property Liard has the potential to become a major supplier of Fluorspar to the USA and Canada, both strategic markets for Fluorspar with limited access to supply. There are currently no commercial fluorspar producers in Canada or the United States. Furthermore, there are no other fluorspar companies with near term cash flow in Canada or United States. 3.2 million tonnes at an average grade of 32% fluorspar; Mineralization at surface, quarry mining potential; 30 km strike length; Metallurgical Testing: 97% CaF2; 22,500 ha (55,000 acres), 100%-owned claims; and Easy access, on the Alaska Highway in British Columbia Historical Data Regarding the Liard Fluorspar Property Prima Fluorspar Corp. has not undertaken an independent verification to classify the historic resource estimate quoted from a Mineral Potential Compilation Report for the BC Department of Economic Development, written by Wright Engineers Limited and H.N. Halvorson Consultants Ltd., in January 17, 1975 as a current mineral resource. Neither has Prima independently verified the results of the previous exploration work. Therefore, the historical mineral resource should not be relied upon, but the issuer believes the information to be relevant and reasonably reliable. An unknown quantity of the 3.2 million tonnes is on mineral claims outside of the current Liard Fluorspar Property. However, based on the information available, the majority of the estimate is based on the deposits located on Prima’s Liard Fluorspar Property. The key assumptions, parameters and methods of the resource estimate are unknown at this time. New deposit definition drilling is needed to develop a current resource estimate on the property. Prima believes that these historical mineral resources provide a conceptual indication of the potential of the property and are relevant to ongoing exploration.
