Energizer Resources Inc. (TSX:EGZ)(OTCQX:ENZR)(FRANKFURT:YE5) ("Energizer" or
the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a binding Memorandum of
Understanding with Malagasy Minerals Limited ("Malagasy") (ASX:MGY) to acquire
Malagasy's remaining 25% interest in the joint venture entity, which holds
Energizer's Molo Graphite Project. Energizer and Malagasy have agreed to
complete a formal purchase and sale agreement ("Agreement") within 45 days.


With the purchase of Malagasy's 25% interest, Energizer will own 100% of the
Molo Graphite Project as well as a 100% interest in and to all of the industrial
mineral rights within the acquired property, which is comprised of 2,120 claims
totaling 94,011 hectares. The actual area of the Molo deposit as currently
delineated is approximately 62 hectares, representing less than 1% of the total
acquired land package.


Energizer's total land package in southern Madagascar encompasses approximately
320 kilometers (198 miles) of continuous graphitic trends, where all graphite
mineralization is immediately at surface. The Company has also identified
through drilling, trenching and geological mapping at least six other zones that
could be potential stand-alone graphite deposits.


Craig Scherba, P. Geo., President & COO stated, "We are extremely pleased to
have signed an MOU with Malagasy and I would like to take this opportunity to
thank them for their considerations in reaching this arrangement. We both fully
appreciate that structuring an arrangement to consolidate the Molo Property
ownership will provide the maximum opportunity to increase shareholder value for
the respective companies. Acquiring 100% ownership of the Molo graphite deposit
mineral rights will be another step forward in Molo's mine development plan.
This is a very significant benefit as we further our discussions with both
potential strategic and off-take partners and should also help facilitate
project financing for the future Molo mine."

the Agreement, Energizer agrees to make the following payments to Malagasy
within 5 business days of TSX approval:

    preceding execution of the Agreement; 
--  Cash payment of CAD$700,000 and issuance of 1,000,000 Energizer common
    shares which are subject to a 12 month voluntary vesting period within 5

    minerals produced from the property; and

    rights on about 1-1/2 additional claim blocks comprising 10,811 hectares
    immediately to the east and adjoining the Molo Graphite Deposit claim
    blocks.



In a parallel but separate transaction, Malagasy acquires a 75% interest through
a Joint Venture Agreement to be drafted for non-industrial minerals on
Energizer's 100% owned Green Giant Property in Madagascar. Energizer will own
the remaining 25% and have a free carried interest through to the BFS stage.


The Memorandum of Understanding, Joint Venture Agreement and Purchase and Sale
Agreement, once completed, remain subject to Energizer obtaining final approval
from the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Securities Exchange Commission in the
United States. All securities issued in connection with this transaction will be
subject at minimum to the applicable regulatory hold periods.


Initial Joint Venture Agreement signed on December 15, 2011

The Joint Venture Agreement signed between the parties resulted in the formation
of the joint venture ("JV") entity, which served to hold the original "Area of
Interest" land package comprised of 2,119 claims or 83,200 hectares. The Molo
Graphite Deposit is entirely contained within the "Area of Interest" land
package. The industrial mineral rights in and to this land package are presently
held 100% within the JV entity, which is currently owned 75%/25% by Energizer
and Malagasy respectively.
