EXPLANATORY NOTE

Strategic Mining Corp. is filing this amendment on Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment”) to its Current Report on Form 8-K, originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 2012 (the “Original Report”), in order to:  (i) update its disclosure relating to the Reserve Equity Financing Agreement, dated April 13, 2012, and Registration Rights Agreement, dated April 10, 2012, both entered into with AGS Capital Group, LLC; and (ii) attach a press release dated May 24, 2012 related to the above transaction.
 
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 10, 2012, Strategic Mining Corp. (the “Company”) finalized a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with AGS Capital Group, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“AGS”).  Additionally, on April 13, 2012, the Company finalized a Reserve Equity Financing Agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) with AGS.

Financing Agreement

Pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement, for a period of 36 months commencing on the date of effectiveness of the registration statement, AGS shall purchase up to $5,000,000 (the “Commitment Amount”) of the Company’s common stock.  The purchase price of the shares under the Financing Agreement is equal to ninety percent (90%) of the lowest closing best bid price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days after the Company delivers to AGS a notice in writing requiring AGS to purchase shares, as further provided for pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement. The Company cannot issue any such notices to AGS until a registration statement covering these purchases is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC’) and the number of shares sold in each advance shall not exceed 250% of the average daily trading volume unless such number is increased upon mutual written consent of the Company and AGS.  The Company is prohibited from taking certain actions, including issuing shares or convertible securities where the purchase price is determined using any floating discount.

The Financing Agreement terminates on the earlier of (i) the first day of the month following the 36th anniversary of the effective date, or (ii) the date of which AGS has funded the maximum Commitment Amount in its aggregate.  Despite the foregoing, under certain conditions, the Company may terminate the Financing Agreement, effective upon thirty trading days’ prior written notice to AGS.  The Financing Agreement may also be terminated upon written mutual consent of the Company and AGS.  In addition, either party may terminate the Financing Agreement by written notice to the other party, effective immediately, if the first closing has not occurred within 25 business days of the execution date of the Financing Agreement.

As compensation for AGS's structuring, legal, administrative and due diligence costs associated with the Financing Agreement, the Company has issued $20,000 worth of restricted stock of the Company.

As further consideration for AGS entering into the Financing Agreement, the Company has issued common shares to AGS equaling three percent (3%) of the Commitment Amount using the purchase price formula which applied the ten previous trading days prior to the date the Agreement was signed.
 
The above description of the Financing Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the document itself.
 
Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the execution of the Financing Agreement, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with AGS. Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC to cover the shares issued and to be issued to AGS pursuant to the Financing Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Financing Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Reserve Equity Financing Agreement dated April 13, 2012 and the Registration Rights Agreement dated April 10, 2012, both of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report of Form 8-K/A and incorporated herein by reference.
 
The above description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the document itself.
  
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The disclosure set forth above under Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.

In addition, the Company is relying on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the private placement of our securities under the Equity Agreement pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  The transaction does not involve a public offering, AGS is an “accredited investor” and/or qualified institutional buyer and has had access to information about us and its investment.

Exhibit 99.1
 
Strategic Mining Corp. Achieves $5 Million Reserve Equity Financing
from AGS Capital Group

CHEYENNE, WY, May 24, 2012 (GlobeNewswire) - Strategic Mining Corp (OTCBB: SMNG) announced it has achieved a $5,000,000 Reserve Equity Financing (“REF”) from AGS Capital Group, LLC, a U.S. based specialist investor group, to fund general Company operations and gold exploration work on the Siguiri property in Guinea.

The REF is a long-term strategic financing partnership that places Strategic Mining Corp. in control of how and when we raise equity, minimizing any potential dilution or disruption to our capital structure. Under the REF, Strategic Mining Corp. has discretion to periodically sell common shares when the prices are attractive to the Company.  The Company decides when the funds are raised and how the funds are utilized. Having AGS Capital Group as a long-term partner reduces financing uncertainty so that we can better focus on achieving our business objectives for precious metals exploration and eventual mine production.

Douglas C. Peters, President and CEO of Strategic Mining Corp., stated “We are pleased to be able to access this level of funding through a financial vehicle like the REF and a key financial partner.  Strategic Mining can make use of such consistent funding to advance exploration efforts for our gold properties, particularly for the Siguiri property in Guinea where funding is needed to complete assessment of the overall property for both placer and hard rock resources and move toward development and production of the placer gold resources already identified by past efforts.”

 “AGS sees Strategic Mining as an exploration company that has the potential for considerable growth given their position in the highly active gold fields of Guinea and attempts at breaking into Southeast Asian gold exploration as well.  We welcome the opportunity to aid Strategic Mining in these efforts”, stated Allen Silberstein, Chief Investment Officer of AGS Capital Group.


About Strategic Mining Corp.

Strategic Mining Corp.’s goal is to become a significant explorer and developer of gold properties in Guinea and Vietnam. It is currently planning more exploration and development programs on its Siguiri property, and intends to expand its property base in Guinea by acquisition and joint venture.
