Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

Effective December 2, 2010, BE Resources Inc. (the “Company”) completed the sale of 4,960,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to the exercise of its Series 2010-I warrants (“Warrants”), which Warrants were issued in the June 2010 private placement described in a Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 23, 2010. Also on December 2, 2010, the Company completed the sale of 945,834 shares of its common stock pursuant to the exercise of compensation options issued to the placement agent in that June 2010 private placement. At the same time, the holder of the compensation options exercised the Warrants included in the units received upon exercise of the compensation options. In total, the Company issued 6,851,668 shares of its common stock in transactions that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

The exercise price for each of the Warrants was Cdn$0.50 and the exercise price for each of the compensation options was Cdn$0.30, resulting in total proceeds to the Company from these transactions of Cdn$3,000,208. No commissions, placement fees or other form of remuneration were paid by the Company in connection with the exercise of the Warrants or the compensation options.

The sale of common stock and the Warrants pursuant to exercise of the compensation options was made to the placement agent in the June 2010 transaction, MGI Securities Inc., and other participating Canadian broker-dealers. In addition to those broker-dealers, the sale of common stock pursuant to exercise of the Warrants was made to individuals and entities outside the United States in reliance on the provisions of Regulation S of the Securities Act.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor "Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The matters discussed in this report on Form 8-K, when not historical matters, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of existing securities legislation and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected results. Such forward looking statements include, among others, statements regarding future exploration results. Such factors that may impact these forward-looking statements include, among others set forth in the Company's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the results of its continuing exploration program, the decisions of third parties over which the Company has no control, commodity prices, environmental and government regulations, judicial proceedings, force majeure events, and other risk factors as described from time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC. Many of these factors are beyond the Company's ability to control or predict. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of receiving new information, the occurrence of future events, or otherwise.
