Interim Results - six months ended 30 June 2016

("Eurasia" or the "Company")

Interim Results for the six months ended 30 June 2016

 

Chairman's Statement

Dear Shareholder,

As I anticipated in the Annual Report, platinum and gold mining at West Kytlim has commenced, with the prospect of at least 10 years of production lying ahead. At the time of writing we have shipped and had notification of receipt of the first concentrates from the mine. A single shipment of 574.18 grams of raw platinum was received at the Ekaterinburg Non-ferrous Metals Processing Plant and will be refined and then purchased by the refinery under the terms of our refining and sales agreement.

We are very pleased that we have come to this point despite difficult market conditions. Furthermore, we believe our royalty-like structure with OOO SK Region Stroy ("SKRS") has proved to be the correct course, sparing the Company additional shareholder dilution, project finance or loans. SKRS is a reputable contractor working with major companies in Russia and has undertaken to provide all the infrastructure, equipment and supplies for mining, as well as the operating costs, in exchange for a 70% return of the gross revenue. This allows Eurasia to earn 30% of top line sales without any financing risk. Meanwhile Eurasia has committed to leverage its expertise in alluvial platinum exploration and reserves definition to upgrade known resources to reserves within the mining license.

As SKRS had surplus earth-moving equipment and personnel to deploy to our West Kytlim site and Eurasia was seeking a risk-free structure, our agreement with SKRS presented a mutually beneficial agreement which is now bearing fruit. Revenue should now commence in the month of September with its distribution to the parties managed by Eurasia. The recent significant improvement in platinum and gold prices is a timely bonus for the operation. Further price growth is projected for precious metals by many analysts, in particular due to the structural deficit in notably South African platinum supply. This could further improve the economics at West Kytlim, even as Eurasia is protected from some downside risk through the royalty-like structure which awards a share of top line sales regardless of the operation's bottom line.

As I wrote earlier, we plan to increase the mining rate over the next two years and this will involve the installation of a powerline and the use of mains-powered draglines for waste stripping and ore stockpiling. These activities are to be undertaken by SKRS throughout this winter at no cost to Eurasia.

At Monchetundra, we continue to work on completing our filings for the eventual application for a discovery certificate and later a mining licence. The two target open pit resources are at West Nittis and Loipishnune. Initial positive drilling results from West Nittis, as well as the successful application of shallow soil geochemistry profiling, were announced on 22nd April 2016. This project is being reviewed by several interested parties and we are hopeful we can find a partner or a purchaser to advance it to production

At Semenovsky, our new gold in tailings project, we are continuing with detailed metallurgical testwork as the last step in our due diligence work, in advance of designing a mine. The exclusive option has been extended to November to allow more time to complete the transaction. In addition Eurasia, working in joint venture with Metal Tiger plc, has sought and been granted approval of a feasibility report (TEO in Russia) and its related reserves calculation. Both have now been approved and this, a maiden reserve for the project, has been registered on the state balance sheet as a C2 Reserve containing 3.5 tons of gold (112,000 ounces) and 49.3 tons of silver (1,578,000 ounces) (see announcement dated 31st August 2016). Results from the Eurasia drilling program carried out in April 2016 at Semenovsky also confirmed previously assessed grades in gold and silver. Average grade from the EUA drill program are 1.16 g/t gold and 17.3 g/t silver.

 In conclusion, the directors of Eurasia have targeted cash-generative and 'straight-forward' mining projects to support the development of the Company. We believe this strategy has proven successful for the Company's survival in the long term. Eurasia's royalty-like financing structure for the West Kytlim mine has allowed us to advance the project to mining and we look forward to crystallizing further value from our partnership with SKRS when the project achieves steady state production in the short term, and benefits from capital expansion in the medium term.

Significant foreign exchange gain achieved by the Group in 2016 is a result of Russian Rouble fluctuation within 2015 and 2016. A major contributor to this result is the financing of the Group's Russian subsidiaries denominated in GBP and USD. Rouble strengthen against GBP in 2016 by 21% (2015: weakened by 25%). 2016 gain indicates the Russian subsidiaries would require less resources to service their debts based on prevailing exchange rates at 30 June 2016, compare to the situation on 31 December 2015.

The foreign currency translation reserve represents exchange differences relating to the translation from the functional currencies of the Group's foreign subsidiaries into GBP.

The equity-based payments reserve represents a reserve arisen on (i) the grant of share options to employees under the employee share option plan and (ii) on issue of warrants under terms of professional service agreements.
