Update on West Kytlim and Monchetundra Projects

West Kytlim
Eurasia commenced mining operations at its 75% owned West Kytlim Alluvial Platinum Mine in the Ural Mountains this year (See RNS dated 1 September 2016). Shipments of raw platinum concentrate to a refinery in Ekaterinburg continued through the mining season with a final shipment in the second week of December.

A final statement on revenue from Platinum, Gold, Palladium, Iridium and Rhodium revenues is expected from the refinery in January 2017. The project is performing well, while the deferred payment basis from the refinery (which is a high credit rating company) required the use of a debt facility from Sanderson Capital Partners (See RNS dated 21 December 2016), partly as a temporary interim financing.

Monchetundra
A Feasibility Study "TEO" (Technico Economicheskiye Obosnovaniye or Technical and Economic Feasibility) was officially submitted today (22 December 2016) for approvals at the State Commission on Mineral Reserves ("GKZ"). This document, considered equivalent to a 'Western' feasibility study, documents the economic extraction of the reserves already identified at two open pit targets on Eurasia's 80% owned Monchetundra License.

The reserves, when approved, will represent the maiden reserves defined for the license.  In addition, an Engineering Procurement and Construction (See RNS dated 10 October 2016) contract ("EPC Contract") is already in place with Sinosteel, a Chinese state owned group operating primarily in mining, trading, equipment manufacturing and engineering. The signed EPC Contract has an obligation for Sinosteel to provide $150m financing, subject to certain conditions, with production to commence on a turn-key basis by Sinosteel.

Further updates on both the West Kytlim and Monchetundra Projects will be provided as and when information becomes available.

Projects Update January 2017
 
The Company is pleased to update shareholders on progress at its projects in early January 2017.
 
Monchetundra PGM Project, Kola Peninsula, NW Russia
 
As reported on 22 December 2016, a Feasibility Study "TEO" (Technico Economicheskiye Obosnovaniye or Technical and Economic Feasibility) was officially submitted on schedule, for approval at the State Commission on Mineral Reserves ("GKZ"). The document is now under review by a panel of experts who have responded with requests for clarifications and additional information, as per the standard process.
 
On 21 November 2016, it was announced that Canadian company Lemuria Royalties Corporation ('Lemuria') were engaged in considering a royalty structure for both the Monchetundra PGM mine and West Kytlim Platinum and Gold Mine ('West Kytlim'). Lemuria, preferring a focus on cash generating projects in their current portfolio, expressed an interest in West Kytlim only, however Eurasia have opted not to progress with Lemuria and to ensure the development of West Kytlim by continuing to advance the project with its existing partner.
 
 
West Kytlim Platinum and Gold Mine, Ural Mountains
 
A revision to the agreement (see RNS dated 25 May 2016) between Eurasia's Russian subsidiary Kosvinsky Kamen ('KK') and OOO SK Region Stroy ('SKRS') is currently being discussed to outline additional responsibilities for both parties and it is anticipated this could include further capital investment by SKRS. A meeting between KK and SKRS is expected to occur in the last week of January 2017 (in advance of the mining season), at which an international alluvial mining specialist has been engaged to bring additional expertise to the project teams. Items for discussion include production scheduling for 2017 and a detailed schedule for resource upgrade drilling. A further report will be released following these meetings.
 
 
MD Christian Schaffalitzky commented: "It is encouraging to have had an initial response from GKZ who are now actively working on approval of the Monchetundra TEO/Feasibility Study. Our experience in successfully attaining a Mining License at West Kytlim has proven that good communication and information exchange between the applicant and issuer is a good indication of a successful and timely application.
 
Our working relationship with SKRS at West Kytlim throughout 2016 was both amicable and mutually beneficial. It is however imperative from a KK point of view to ensure SKRS deploys the necessary capital to allow the project to expand, in this the second year of production. Whilst there can be no guarantee that this will occur, we remain confident that there is interest on both sides to reaching an agreement on this matter.
 
We wish a happy New Year to our shareholders and we look forward to updating on further progress in the near term."

Eurasia Mining plc (AIM: EUA)

Successful step up to Production at West Kytlim during 2016

Eurasia can now report on the final results of the initial mining season at its 75% owned West Kytlim Alluvial Platinum and Gold Mine ("West Kytlim"). Mining at West Kytlim is seasonal with gravel washing possible in a weather window between the months of April and November. The 2016 operation commenced in the later half of this season (See RNS dated 27 July 2016) as mining and other permits became available. Site facilities and infrastructure were put in place ahead of first gravel washing which commenced in the first weeks of September and continued to early November.

A total of 11.3kg raw platinum were produced through the season, with some credits from Palladium (32g), Iridium (350g), Rhodium (49g) and Gold (56g). Two washplants employing different processing schemes were tested on site to further improve knowledge of the washability of the near surface reserves at the Malaya Sosnovka Area. Sluice concentrates from these washplants were upgraded onsite to a raw platinum product which was refined by and sold to a Precious Metals Refinery in Ekaterinburg. The larger of the two washplants had downtime due to minor breakage caused by the passing of heavier gravel and cobbles through the system. Modifications to ensure continuous operation of this washplant have been discussed and will be realized ahead of the 2017 season.

The average mining grade was 449 milligrams per cubic metre. It should be noted that mining grades were notably higher than expected. Average grade of gravels mined was 120% of reserves grade.

A further update on our mining plan for 2017, an outcome of detailed discussions held in Ekaterinburg in the last week of January with our contractors operating the West Kytlim Mine, as well as updates to the agreement with the contractor will follow this announcement directly.

Christian Schaffalitzky, MD at Eurasia commented 'Having met with our contractors this past week in Ekaterinburg we are confident that the 2016 mining season was managed well by both the Eurasia and the contractor's personnel. The season was also successful in terms of becoming familiar with the operating environment, mining machinery and the nature of the ore to be worked, essential elements in an alluvial mining operation. We now look forward to a full mining season in this 2017, preparation for which is already well advanced.'

West Kytlim capital expansion and exploration funding

The Company is pleased to further update on material changes to the sub-contracting agreement at the West Kytlim Alluvial platinum and gold mine and in the working arrangements between the parties. Capital expansion by the contractor has been assured for 2017 and subsequent years. In addition, funding has been secured for a five year detailed exploration programme to upgrade resource areas to reserves ahead of mining.

The agreement (see RNS dated 25 May 2016) between Eurasia's Russian subsidiary Kosvinsky Kamen ('KK') and Region Stroy ('SKRS') has now been superseded by a new agreement between KK and Region Metall ('RGML' or 'the Contractor') an affiliate of SKRS, 100% focused on the mining operation at West Kytlim. The new agreement further outlines responsibilities for both parties and guarantees capital expansion by the Contractor.

Highlights :

-- RGML commits to provide capital expansion for the project, sufficient to satisfy a mining schedule agreed in advance by both parties.
-- KK have moved the mining rights from SKRS to RGML, conditional on certain milestones being achieved, including production according to an agreed 17 year Life of Mine Production schedule.
-- Revised schedule for mining over the next 12 years will cover all resources plus reserves on the license. One washplant is already on site, a further three washplants to be added by 2020.
-- Resource drilling and all other third party exploration costs to be funded by RGML and undertaken under the supervision of KK's director of exploration.
-- This funding is structured as an interest free loan from RGML to KK, deployed according to a detailed 5 year exploration schedule. Total third party exploration costs over the 5 year plan are circa $1,000,000 or(57m RUR)
-- Repayment schedule for the interest free loan commences in 2018 but will be a function of mining grade, as 2016 mined grades were found to be 20% higher than reserves.
-- The split on top line sales is unchanged at 70:30, however the Contractor must achieve a number of milestones and production parameters.

All-party meetings, held in Ekaterinburg (in advance of the mining season) concluded successfully with agreement on a new mining schedule which foresees significant capital expansion at the project in 2017 and subsequent years to a 12 year life of mine. Mining operations and site preparation are to commence in February, with first gravel washing anticipated in early summer 2017. The washplant used for 2017 production will be re-commissioned and a further washplant will be built in the second half of the 2017 production season. Further washplants will be added as required, to ensure production targets stipulated in the production schedule are met, up to four operational units by year 5(2020). The production schedule is a cornerstone of the mining rights awarded to the contractor, such that failure to meet production targets may result in an annulment of mining rights.

Mining in 2017 will continue at Malaya Sosnovka and later progress to Kluchki (see map on Eurasia's website www.eurasiamining.co.uk before the end of the season. Overall it is expected that approximately 100kg raw platinum will be produced in 2017, of which 30kg is attributable to Eurasia. Stripping of overburden and mining to stockpiles will commence in March 2017 with washing expected by early summer.
A five year exploration program has been agreed and already approved by the Ministry for Subsoil use. RGML have agreed to fund this program by means of an interest free loan to KK to cover all third party exploration costs including regular, large diameter and hydro geological drilling. KK will manage these exploration programs and, as the mining license holder, will continue to calculate and make applications for reserves approval and permitting.

MD Christian Schaffalitzky commented: "We are pleased to have refreshed our agreement with the Contractor at West Kytlim and to have ensured fresh capital to the project, again without diluting our shareholders and without changing the revenue split formula, which remains favorable for Eurasia. Our working relationship with the Contractor throughout 2016 was both amicable and mutually beneficial. It was however imperative from a KK point of view to ensure the Contractor deploys the necessary capital to allow the project to expand, at no cost to our shareholders, in the second year of production. A further positive result from this new arrangement is that the Contractor has committed to support exploration expenditure by means of a loan to KK, and this without a review of the revenue split. This work is essential to ensure sufficient supply of ore to the washplants.
We feel the project is now well in hand for 2017 and are delighted to remove the additional exploration cost from our budgets for 2017 and subsequent years. Our team in the Urals are doing a great job supervising both the mining and the exploration and this is set to continue. All the technical issues have now been solved and the project is set to have a full and we are confident successful mining season in 2017."

Excellent news up up and away well done CS.

Really surprised at the share price reaction to this news

Eurasia re-draws mining agreement at West Kytlim
14:28 06 Feb 2017

Russian firm SKRS has agreed to new production targets under a 17 year schedule



Eurasia Mining plc (LON:EUA) has renegotiated the terms of its mining agreement for the West Kytlim alluvial platinum mine in Russia.

In return for a transfer of the mining rights Russian firm SKRS has agreed to new production targets under a 17 year schedule.

Next year will see a second washplant come on stream and within five years the aim is to have four running to meet the production targets set down in the new agreement.

In addition, SKRS will put up US$1mln through an interest free loan for exploration though the 70:30 revenue split between SKRS and Eurasia’s local subsidiary KK remains unchanged.

Production in 2017 is forecast at 100kg of platinum (3,220 ounces ) of which Eurasia’s share is 30%.

Christian Schaffalitzky, Eurasia’s managing director, said: “It was imperative from a KK point of view to ensure the contractor deploys the necessary capital to allow the project to expand, at no cost to our shareholders, in the second year of production.

“A further positive result from this new arrangement is that the contractor has committed to support exploration expenditure by means of a loan to KK, and this without a review of the revenue split. This work is essential to ensure sufficient supply of ore to the washplants.”

Trial mining in 2016 produced 364oz of platinum, but notable was the fact that grades were 20% higher than the amount shown in the reserves for West Kytlim.

 Eurasia Mining plc (AIM: EUA)
 
Company Update
 
Eurasia is pleased to update shareholders on the three projects currently being worked by the Company.
 
Highlights
 
·    Production work has commenced at the Malaya Sosnovka Area within the West Kytlim Alluvial Platinum and Gold Mine. An increase in the reserves for the Malaya Sosnovka area has also been submitted for approval
 
·    First review and additional information has been completed by the Reserves Committee assessing the Feasibility Study and Reserves Report for Monchetundra in Kola
 
·    Discussions on project finance underway for the Semenovsky Tailings and exclusivity period extended
 
 
West Kytlim
 
Site preparation for the coming mining season proceeds at pace, with 2 Komatsu 355 bulldozers, 2 Komatsu (350 and 400) excavators and an additional diesel power plant delivered to site. The small wash plant is operational. The large wash plant is being upgraded now and the upgrade is expected to be completed in April 2017.
 
Excavating and stockpiling commenced at the Malaya Sosnovka deposit, continuing from where work stopped at the end of the previous mining season. Exploration drilling commenced on 4 March 2017 at the adjacent Bolshaya Sosnovka deposit. 206m have been completed to date of approximately 1,400m planned for 2017 at both the Bolshaya Sosnovka and Kluchiki deposits.
 
As per standard practice under the Russian system, a technical report must be written for each new area to be mined. This report is then assessed by the relevant authority which issues a Mining Allotment for that area and the extraction of the reserves therein. A Technical Design Report for the first-stage of mining at the Kluchiki deposit has been approved by the authorities and a Mining Allotment was issued in March 2017. This is for a design volume of 645,000m3 of stripping and 362,000m3 of gravels containing 108kg of raw platinum. These reserves are scheduled for development in 2018.
 
In addition, as a result of new information resulting from mining work in 2016 at the Malaya Sosnovka deposit, an increase to the reserves at Malaya Sosnovka has been submitted for approval to the Reserves Commission. It is expected this will increase the previously approved reserves by approximately 15% at this open pit deposit.
 
Monchetundra
 
At the end of 2016 the Company submitted its documentation for a TEO (Feasibility Study) and reserves approval at Monchetundra. The Reserves Committee (GKZ) responded in February 2017, meeting with the Company's team to discuss the reports in detail. The Company has provided answers to all additional queries and awaits final approval. When the TEO and the reserves are approved, the next step will be the award of the Discovery Certificate that allows the Company to receive the production licence.
 
 
Semenovsky Tailings Project (STP)
 
The main activity on this project is looking at the optimal route to mining, using project finance or else a (risk-free for Eurasia) revenue-sharing structure similar to that in place at West Kytlim. In order to provide time for this process the owner has agreed to a further extension of the exclusivity period, previously announced on 22nd December 2016 until 31 May 2017.
 
 
Commenting on progress, Managing Director Christian Schaffalitzky said: "We are pleased with progress in all three projects which are advancing as planned. At West Kytlim we have just started the production work for the year. At Monchetundra the project is coming to fruition and we expect the approval of the TEO and the reserves. At STP, we are seeking a financing structure that would avoid dilution for Eurasia shareholders.

In the view of the Board, we are happy that the Company is steadily securing its future and making a platform for further development of Eurasia for our shareholders. 

Eurasia will be attending two investors conferences in the coming weeks; Master Investors Show on Saturday 25th March 2017 and the UK investor show on April 1st 2017. We would be pleased to discuss these updates in person at these upcoming events.".
