Uzunbulak Cu Au Porphyry - Summary

• Cu Au system developed over 5km long strike length

• 3 zones in southern 2km of system with interesting Cu Au & classic porphyry style veining (5 to 50% range)

• Indications of higher grade Au to 2.3 ppm (Au enriched)

• Cu to 2.6 % (supergene?)

• Modest surface dimensions - may represent the upper portions of more extensive system at depth

• Good access and relatively low altitude (>2000m)

• Minimal work to make drill ready

• Raw reconnaissance property

• Two areas of strongly anomalous Au-Cu-Ag on edge of ring fracture

• Northern Zone - rock sampling Av. 1.7 ppm (peak 42 ppm)

• Southern Zone – contiguous Au in drainages and rock float with 4.3 ppm Au

• Tenement extended to cover new gold anomalies

• Follow-up gold anomalies and evaluate 2006

Ak Bel - Summary

• Structure – crustal suture / orogen oblique / host structure.

• Buried intrusive - heat engine / metal source?

• Carbonaceous / pyritic host rocks.

• Alteration sericite – albite – Kspar – carbonate.

• Mineralization Au-pyrite-(basemetal)

• Drilled 2.5 holes of minimum 9 hole program in the Ak Bel• No significant gold in drill holes to date (Results pending in Holes 2 and 3) • Technically higher priority holes are yet to be drilled• Ak Bel is one of a number of Kentor’s prospect areas along strike from the +10 M.Oz Kumtor District

Kentor – 2005 Review• Range of quality 100% owned Au (Cu-Au) projects derived

from systematic targeting

• “Drill ready” Cu Au porphyry – Uzunbulak

• Significant gold in soil & rockchip at new Barkol prospect areas

• Highly anomalous Au (Cu Ag) in rockchip and stream sediment two new zones in Karabalta

• Ak Bel - along strike from the +10m oz Au Kumtor District

• Ak Bel - 2.5 of 9 priority holes drilled with no significant Au (results pending)

• Ak Bel - best targets yet to be drilled

• Ak Bel - one of a number of Kentor’s prospect areas at Ertash
