Drilling Report

Eurasia Mining PLC 09 May 2007 Eurasia Mining plc ('Eurasia' or 'the Company') URALS DRILLING UPDATE May 9, 2007: AIM-quoted Eurasia Mining plc has completed an exploration drilling programme on a portion of its West Kytlim licence area in the Urals, Russia. The drilling programme was fully funded by Eurasia's 50:50 joint-venture partner, Anglo Platinum, the world's largest platinum producer and was carried out on one of two large potential areas of production on virgin alluvial territory discovered by Eurasia in the West Kytlim area 13 months ago. Early drilling indicated average grades of platinum as high as 335 milligrams per cubic metre (mg/m3) - in a region where small producers are already extracting alluvial platinum economically at grades as low as 100 mg/m3. The completion of the latest drilling programme, which focussed on the area most likely to form part of the first stage of mining at West Kytlim, is an important milestone in the completion of the bankable feasibility study. Eurasia expects to complete a reserve report shortly which can be lodged with the relevant authorities, a necessary step once the conversion of the exploration licence into a mining permit is required. Feasibility studies continue and upon the completion of a bankable study the joint venture will examine how best to implement the project. Issues currently under consideration include the use of mining plant owned by a local partner, Production Artel Yuzhno-Zaozersky Priisk, investment in a new washing plant and project finance options. Plans are meanwhile advancing for further bulk testing to be carried out this summer. Alluvial mining is a significant component of the mining industry in Russia, with over forty operators in gold and less than six in platinum. Approximately 120,000 ounces of platinum was produced from alluvial mining in 2006, while allivial gold production is estimated at 2 million ounces for the same year.
