About Eurasia Mining

Separately, approved Reserves and Resources within the Monchetundra Project on the Kola Peninsula comprise 1.9 million ounces palladium equivalent (Russian standard C1 and C2 categories).

About Gold Mint

- GoldMint, and the GoldMint board of directors and advisors, demonstrate significant experience in the emerging world of blockchain technology, their creative vision to redefine the architecture of the physical gold market, by creating the infrastructure necessary to allow physical gold to be traded faster, more efficiently, and more transparently represents a paradigm shift for the entire gold industry.

- Goldmint has evolved from the successful Russian high street gold management and lending business Lot-Zoloto, and the realization by its co-founders Dmitry Pluschevsky and Konstantin Romanov, that blockchain technology can be applied to that business and expanded upon to encompass further international gold markets, making transactions in physical gold more accessible, efficient and transparent.

- GoldMint intends to launch a new means of exchange for physical gold, with transactions managed over the blockchain based platform but backed 100% by physical gold. It is intended that this platform will access the private and individual gold trading market and potentially the management of larger physical stocks such as those in central banks. It is also intended that this will provide an electronic payment solution backed by physical gold and a system for gold backed peer to peer lending.

About BlockChain

Blockchain and Blockchain technology area distributed ledger technology consisting of a list of records or blocks, timestamped in series and secured cryptographically. The platform was originally devised for the digital currency Bitcoin but has now found further application most notably in adding the concept of a smart contract to what was initially a transaction in value only. Each block typically contains a hash pointer as a link to a previous block, a timestamp and transaction data. By design, blockchains are inherently resistant to any modification of the data.
