QUESTION FROM SHAREHOLDER COMPANY RESPONSE How are you planning to grow There are three pillars to the the Company and increase shareholders Company's growth strategy: value and increase annual production * Find and develop new deposits in its existing over 100,000 gold equivalent concessions ounces? * Obtain and develop further concessions in Azerbaijan * Pursue opportunities outside Azerbaijan ----------------------------------------------------------------- What can the Company do about It is not appropriate for the market makers always having Company to talk to its market a 10p spread on their buy and makers about their pricing as sell price? they do not act for the Company and have no obligations to the Companies in which they trade. However, the Company is currently reviewing its options with regards to how its shares are traded. ----------------------------------------------------------------- When are you going to give information The Company is already starting on the PSA renewal? the process of renewing its PSA and it believes this will be routine Please refer to the letter from Reza Vaziri (CEO) to shareholders dated 23 June 2020 which was released via RNS. ----------------------------------------------------------------- What initiatives have management The Company does not comment taken to address the undervalued on its share price, although share price? the Board continue to develop a strategy that has been outlined in recent announcements in order to maximise shareholder value. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Is the Company considering issuing No. Trading volumes are healthy bonus shares or a share split when compared to other AIM listed to increase liquidity and its companies. share price? ----------------------------------------------------------------- We were told last year that Please refer to the letter from the Company was in discussions Reza Vaziri (CEO) to shareholders with the Government of Azerbaijan dated 23 June 2020 which was which everybody assumed was released as an RNS. either a takeover of the Company or it acquiring its assets in Azerbaijan. Are these discussions still taking place and if so, when are we going to hear about what has been said? ----------------------------------------------------------------- If the exploration continues Exploration is anticipated to to go well at Ordubad, approximately take two to three years assuming when would you anticipate construction full access, followed by reserve of a mine and subsequent first estimation and mine construction pour of gold? Is an annual production which would take an addition of 250,000 ounces feasible? one to two years. For the principal gold assets feasibility is a future component of the project. Our current exploration strategy is also targeting the porphyry-style copper, or copper-gold, mineralisation. Deposits of this type typically contain resources of 100 to 350 million tonnes at grades of 0.30 to 0.55 per cent. copper. Additionally, the Company has identified a number of high-grade gold occurrences (refer to the Company's 2019 Ordubad exploration reports) which if progressed to a low cost production unit may themselves possibly yield gold in the range of 20,000 to 50,000 ounces per year. However, until exploration and feasibility studies are completed, it is impossible to say what level of production is capable of being sustained and the timescales for this. ----------------------------------------------------------------- The five new exploration targets, Assuming these discoveries are when they come on stream from viable, it is likely that gold 2022 - 2025 will increase the production will increase. The gold output of the company significantly. scale of increase and timing Could you give some approximate of production is dependent on indication of the scale of increase exploration results. 100,000 that might be expected if all ounces or more per year output goes well and also the timing is the next target and the Company - for example when would you will continue to work on its hope that output would reach development to attain the targets or exceed 100 000 ounces / year? as soon as possible. -----------------------------------------------------------------

Notes:
Anglo Asian Mining plc (AIM:AAZ) is a gold, copper and silver producer in Central Asia with a broad portfolio of production and exploration assets in Azerbaijan. The Company has a 1,962 square kilometre portfolio, assembled from analysis of historic Soviet geological data and held under a Production Sharing Agreement modelled on the Azeri oil industry.
The Company's main operating location is the Gedabek contract area ("Gedabek") which is a 300 square kilometre area in the Lesser Caucasus mountains in western Azerbaijan. The Company developed Azerbaijan's first operating gold/copper/silver mine at Gedabek which commenced gold production in May 2009. Mining at Gedabek was initially from its main open pit which is an open cast mine with a series of interconnected pits. The Company also operates the high grade Gadir underground mine which is co-located at the Gedabek site. In September 2017, production commenced at the Ugur open pit mine, a recently discovered gold ore deposit at Gedabek. The Company has a second underground mine, Gosha, which is 50 kilometres from Gedabek. Ore mined at Gosha is processed at Anglo Asian's Gedabek plant.
The Company produced 81,399 gold equivalent ounces ("GEOs") for the year ended 31 December 2019. Gedabek is a polymetallic ore deposit that has gold together with significant concentrations of copper in the main open pit mine, and an oxide gold-rich zone at Ugur. The Company therefore employs a series of flexible processing routes to optimise metal recoveries and efficiencies. The Company produces gold doré through agitation and heap leaching operations, copper concentrate from its Sulphidisation, Acidification, Recycling, and Thickening (SART) plant and also a copper and precious metal concentrate from its flotation plant.
The Company has a production target for the year to 31 December 2020 of 65,000 ounces to 67,000 ounces of gold and 2,200 tonnes to 2,400 tonnes of copper. This total production target expressed as gold equivalent ounces ("GEOs") at budgeted metal prices is between 75,000 GEOs and 80,000 GEOS.
Anglo Asian is also actively seeking to exploit its first mover advantage in Azerbaijan to identify additional projects, as well as looking for other properties elsewhere in order to fulfil its expansion ambitions and become a mid-tier gold and copper metal production company.
