"Project"). The Project is situated within the Middle Tien Shan Mountains of
Kyrgyzstan which form part of the Tien Shan gold belt. The Company has thus far
delineated a JORC compliant mineral resource of 3.34Moz at a grade of 4.30 g/t
gold. A scoping study demonstrating the economic viability of the Project was
completed at the end of 2008. The Company is currently in the process of
compiling a pre-feasibility study.  Following the continuous exploration works
undertaken during 2009 the Company expects to announce an updated resource
report in the first quarter of 2010. Chaarat's objective is to become a low cost
gold producer targeting an initial production of over 200,000 ounces per annum
by late 2012.
