Drilling Report

Eurasia Mining PLC 15 November 2006 Eurasia Mining Plc ('Eurasia' or the 'Company') New drill results indicate strong potential for platinum group metals targets Eurasia Mining plc is pleased to announce successful drilling results indicating potential for underground and open-cast platinum mining targets on its Joint Venture Monchetundra licence in the Kola Peninsula of north-west Russia. The results, from drilling up until last August, show platinum plus palladium grades ranging between 1.7 and 8.4 grams per tonne (g/t) across two of the four zones currently being drilled at Monchetundra - Zone 2 and Zone 3. Zone 2 contains intercepts of PGM at a width and grade which could be of interest for underground mining. This horizon has been identified on two drill hole lines which are 400 meters (m) apart. Section Hole No. From (m) To (m) Interval (m) Pt+Pd (g/t) Line 105 MT-4 75.6 78.6 4.0 1.7 MT-3 149.6 150.6 1.0 3.6 Line 109 UM-3 187.4 191.0 3.6 8.4 Ongoing drilling is designed to test for continuity of mineralization between these traverses and also explore Zone 2 over the remainder of its projected 6 km strike length. A further 5 km of strike length where geological knowledge is currently low also remains to be tested. The second target, in Zone 3, consists of wide intercepts of low grade mineralization that are considered a target for open pit mining. The mineralization is associated with sulphides, including pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite; it appears to be transgressive and not restricted to one particular rock association. Section Hole No. From (m) To (m) Interval (m) Pt+Pd (g/t) Line 126 UM-7 83.0 89.7 6.7 1.8 UM-7 112.7 128.0 15.3 2.2 Line 132 MT-6 43.7 61.7 18.0 1.7 Line 136 UM-9 38.8 74.7 35.9 1.8 As with Zone 2, the drilling lines on Zone 3 are widely spaced and infill drilling is required to test continuity of mineralization between them. Average platinum to palladium ratio 0.6:1. A further 4,000 metres of drilling to test the mineralised zones is planned for 2007, at up to 80 locations. Eurasia Managing Director Christian Schaffalitzky said: 'The results endorse the potential for platinum group metals (PGM) mineralisation on the Monchetundra licence. Although this is still an early step in our assessment of its commercial potential, we are particularly encouraged by the substantial widths and relatively high platinum to palladium ratio of the mineralisation, in view of the fact that the price of platinum is approximately three times higher than palladium. We look forward to releasing additional results over the coming months.' Monchetundra, near the city of Monchegorsk on Russia's Kola Peninsula, is one of three licences held within the Eurasia / Anglo Platinum Joint Venture in the region. Initial appraisal work is also underway on the other two licences, Volchetundra and West Imandra. As set out in the announcement dated February 13th 2006, Anglo Platinum, the world's largest platinum producer, is funding the first US$10,000,000 of exploration spending in return for a 40% stake on all three licences - expected to underpin operations until at least the end of 2008. Eurasia holds the remaining 60% stake in all three licences. Spending at Monchetundra has to date reached around US$800,000 with around twice that amount earmarked for the next phase of drilling on the two most promising zones - Zone 2 and Zone 3. The Joint Venture's three Kola Peninsula licences cover a total of 450 sq km on a geological trend where the Canadian groups Barrick Gold and Consolidated Puma Minerals Corporation are carrying out advanced exploration and feasibility studies on nearby deposits.
