Eurasian Minerals Provides an Exploration, Royalty, and Strategic Investment Update

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Sept. 23, 2014) - Eurasian Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:EMX) (NYSE MKT:EMXX) (the "Company" or "EMX") is pleased to provide an update on the Company's recent exploration, royalty, and strategic investment developments. EMX's diversified mineral property interests span five continents, and include the Leeville royalty in Nevada's Northern Carlin Trend, the Akarca gold-silver discovery, and an interest in IG Copper LLC ("IGC") and its emerging copper-gold discovery at Malmyzh. EMX is aggressively pursuing royalty and exploration business opportunities from around the world to add to its growing portfolio.

North America. A principal EMX asset is the Leeville royalty property that covers portions of Newmont's Carlin Trend underground mining operations. This 1% gross smelter return royalty has included payments from Newmont's Leeville mine, as well as the gold mining operations at Carlin East, North Lantern, Four Corners and Turf. The Turf No. 3 Vent Shaft Project is in the construction phase, with commercial production planned for late 2015 (see Newmont Mining Corp's 10-Q filing dated June 30, 2014). Newmont stated the project will provide the ventilation required to "increase production" and "unlock" additional resources. Newmont estimates capital expenditures of $400 million for the project. The Turf Vent Shaft Project will impact "greater Leeville", which includes portions of EMX's royalty position. EMX has received Leeville net royalty income of approximately US $5.7 million since acquiring the asset in August, 2012.

The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary in North America, Bronco Creek Exploration ("BCE"), has been advancing its copper and gold portfolio through partner-funded work programs in Arizona and Nevada. In addition to these programs, the Company's generative exploration initiatives resulted in staking additional ground in key mining districts.

Earlier this summer, EMX partnered the Lomitas Negras Arizona porphyry copper project with Kennecott Exploration, part of the Rio Tinto Group, and the Cathedral Well Carlin-type gold project in Nevada with Ely Gold and Minerals Inc. Both agreements include staged option payments to EMX, and a retained royalty interest with yearly advanced minimum royalty payments upon partner earn-in (see EMX news releases dated May 15 and July 7, 2014).
