Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On October 10, 2012, NiMin Energy Corp. (the “Company” or “NiMin”) announced that its common shares will be voluntarily delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) after the close of trading on October 22, 2012 and its listing will be transferred to the NEX, a separate board of the TSX Venture Exchange, effective as of market open on October 23, 2012. From and after October 23, 2012, NiMin’s common shares will trade on the NEX under the symbol “NNN.H”.

As described in NiMin’s management information circular/proxy statement dated May 23, 2012, the common shares are being voluntarily delisted from the TSX as NiMin is no longer able to meet the TSX’s listing requirements following the sale of substantially all of its assets as previously announced. NiMin’s common shares will be listed on the NEX in order to maintain liquidity during the Company’s voluntary liquidation and dissolution process; however, NiMin cannot give any assurance that an active or liquid market for its common shares will develop or be sustained.

The Company is furnishing a copy of the press release dated October 10, 2012 as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
