NEWS RELEASE |
Eurasian Minerals Reports IGC Granted an Additional License
for the
Malmyzh Copper-Gold Porphyry Project, Far East Russia
Vancouver, British Columbia, December 10, 2015 (TSX Venture: EMX; NYSE MKT: EMXX) Eurasian Minerals Inc. (the Company or EMX) is pleased to announce that IG Copper LLC ("IGC") advises that an additional license has been granted for the Malmyzh copper-gold porphyry project in Far East Russia. The Malmyzh licenses are held by IGC (51%) and Freeport-McMoRan Exploration Corporation (49%) (the "Joint Venture"), with IGC operating and managing the project. The new "Malmzyh Flanks" exploration license expands the Joint Venture's land position covering the Malmyzh district for a total of 226.9 square kilometers, and includes additional areas for potential infrastructure development as well as extensions to known exploration targets. EMX is IGCs largest shareholder with 42.2% of the issued and outstanding shares. Please see the attached map and www.eurasianminerals.com for more information.
Malmyzh Flanks Discussion and Project Overview. The Malmyzh Flanks exploration license (74.1 sq km) surrounds the previously granted Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses (152.8 sq km) on three sides, and provides additional areas for potential development with improved access to the Amur River. In addition, the new license includes a projection of the Freedom "magnetic cluster" to the north-northeast, and possible extensions of the reconnaissance drilled copper-gold mineralization at the North Slope and Destiny prospects. This exploration potential further highlights the project's upside, which includes four inferred resource deposits open for expansion and eight additional prospects with drilled porphyry copper-gold mineralization.
The Malmyzh project's inferred resources include the Valley, Freedom (SE), Central and Flats deposits. The open pit constrained inferred resources at a 0.30% copper equivalent cut-off are 1,661 million tonnes at average grades of 0.34% copper and 0.17 g/t gold, or 0.42% copper equivalent, containing 5.65 million tonnes (12.45 billion pounds) copper and 9.11 million ounces gold, or 7.06 million tonnes (15.56 billion pounds) copper equivalent (CuEq% = Cu% + (Au g/t x 0.5)) . All four resource deposits are open at depth (> 350-600 m), and importantly, there are zones of shallow, higher grade copper-gold mineralization at the Valley and Freedom (SE) deposits, and high grade below the resource pit at Central. Furthermore, there is higher grade copper-gold mineralization at the Freedom (NW) prospect not currently included in the Malmyzh inferred resource estimate due to the need for infill drilling. Please see EMX news release dated May 26, 2015 and SEDAR filed report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the Malmyzh Copper-Gold Project, Khabarovsk Krai, Russian Federation" with an effective date of May 1, 2015 for more information1.
The Joint Venture is proceeding with acquiring project approvals to continue with the advanced exploration and mining phase of development as required for strategically significant deposits in the Russian Federation. IGC has informed EMX that the process is moving forward at a steady pace. Government support for IGC and the Joint Venture is underscored by the recent award of a "Certificate of First Discovery" for the Malmyzh project. This important acknowledgement officially recognizes the Joint Venture's sole responsibility for an important grassroots discovery and serves to further underpin support for achieving government approvals. This recognition is complemented by the "Explorer of the Year" award received at the recent MINEX Forum in Moscow. Overall, the Russian government strongly supports mining investment and development in their Far East Krais (administrative regions), as evidenced by IGC's recent agreement with the Far East Development Fund to facilitate high-level investments from across the Russian Federation and Asia (see EMX news release dated November 4, 2015). Taken together, IGC is encouraged by, and appreciative of, these strong measures of support for advancing a project recognized as an exceptional asset with world-class potential.
1Phil Newall, PhD, BSc, CEng, FIMMM, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 and managing director of Wardell Armstrong International, an independent UK based consulting company, provided the statement of Malmyzh open pit constrained inferred resources effective as of May 1, 2015 under NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and CIM definition standards. Copper equivalent was calculated as Cu% + (Au g/t x 0.5), and assumed prices of $3.25/lb Cu and $1400/oz Au, with recoveries of 90% for Cu and 70% for Au. See May 26, 2015 EMX news release and SEDAR filed technical report for more information on the CuEq calculation, exploration results, QA/QC procedures, and methodology used to estimate the Malmyzh inferred resources.

IGC's Shelekhovo Project. IGC has 100% control of the 390 square kilometer Shelekhovo property (also known as Shelekhovskaya). IGC recently completed geologic reconnaissance, a ground magnetic survey, and a soil survey consisting of approximately 1,500 samples. The program focused on an interpreted nested caldera complex adjacent to the regional scale Sikhote Alin structural zone in an area marked by multiple gold anomalies and abundant quartz-alunite alteration identified from Soviet-era work. IGC's geologists confirmed the widespread occurrence of quartz-alunite alteration in a geologic setting characteristic of a high sulfidation epithermal system. Results from the program are expected to be available in early 2016.
IGC also 100% controls the nearby 260 square kilometer Salasinskaya property that is considered to be the northern extension of the Shelekhovo anomaly cluster. Both properties occur approximately 150 kilometers along trend to the northeast of Malmyzh. Together, the Malmyzh, Shelekhovo, and Salasinskaya properties cover approximately 877 square kilometers of exploration ground occurring along a ~200 kilometer belt of prospective Cretaceous-age arc terrane rocks.
Drilling, Sampling, Assaying, and QA/QC. The Malmyzh exploration samples were collected in accordance with CIM Best Practice standards and guidelines. The samples were submitted to Irgiredmet Laboratories in Irkutsk, Russia (GOST ISO/MEK 17025 accredited), or ALS Laboratories in Chita, Russia (GOST ISO/IEC 17025 accredited) for assay and geochemical analysis. Gold was analyzed by fire assay with an AAS finish, and copper analyses were determined with aqua regia digestion and ICP AES techniques. IGC conducts routine QA/QC analysis on all assay results, including the systematic utilization of certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates.
Mr. Dean D. Turner, CPG, is a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company. Mr. Turner has reviewed, verified and approved disclosure of the technical information contained in this news release.

results, performance, prospects or opportunities to differ materially from those
expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. These
risks, uncertainties and factors may include, but are not limited to:
unavailability of financing, failure to identify commercially viable mineral
reserves, fluctuations in the market valuation for commodities, difficulties in

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of
Inferred Resources
This news release uses the term Inferred
Resources. We advise U.S. investors that while this term is
defined in, and permitted by, Canadian regulations, this term is not a defined
term under SEC Industry Guide 7 and not normally permitted to be used in reports
and registration statements filed with the SEC. Inferred
Resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their
existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic feasibility. It cannot be
assumed that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be
upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of Inferred
Mineral Resources may not form the basis of a feasibility study or
prefeasibility studies, except in rare cases. The SEC normally only permits
issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute SEC Industry Guide 7
compliant reserves, as in-place tonnage and grade
without reference to unit measures. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume
that any part or all of mineral deposits in this category will ever be converted
into reserves. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all
of an Inferred Resource exists or is economically mineable.
