This Deposit is about 170mm tonnes of .38% near surface nickel (sulphide) with great infrastructure. Exploration potential is excellent.In this market, these projects are very hard to find,and dont come cheap.This is a major coup for CTM.This Project has 100mm market cap potential

CENTRASIA SIGNS AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE NICKEL-COPPER SULPHIDE DEPOSIT IN RUSSIA

Centrasia Mining Corp. has signed a share purchase agreement to acquire a 100-per-cent interest in three nickel-copper sulphide properties in Russia, with one of them being an advanced-stage nickel-copper deposit, for initial payments of $6-million (U.S.) and 12.5 million shares of Centrasia, with cash payments of an additional $5-million (U.S.) in 2008 and $1.5-million (U.S.) in 2009. The transaction is subject to various conditions, including the completion of a National Instrument 43-101-compliant technical report, regulatory approval, shareholder approval and a financing. Centrasia has provided the target company with a loan of $200,000 (U.S.). If the transaction does not close by June 25, 2007, Centrasia may have to pay a penalty which will include forgiving the loan and increasing the cash to be paid on closing by in excess of $1-million (U.S.). A finder's/success fee is payable to DBM Capital Partners.

As stated below, the deposit is reported to contain historic Soviet-classified C2 and P1 resources which indicate an exploration target ranging from 11 million to as much as 179 million tons grading from 0.38 per cent to 0.65 per cent nickel and from 0.13 per cent to 0.29 per cent copper, which could contain in excess of one billion pounds of nickel. Investors are cautioned that the potential quantity and grade are conceptual in nature and that there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the confirmation or discovery of a mineral resource.

The deposit is located approximately 180 kilometres west of Murmansk in the Kola Peninsula of northwestern Russia. The main highway from Murmansk to the Norwegian border lies on the north edge of the property. Graded gravel roads give access to the centre of the property and there is excellent access to power, water and a local work force. A Norilsk nickel smelter is located in the nearby city of Nikel.

Nickel-copper mineralization occurs on the deposit as disseminated sulphides in a sequence of ultramafic flows, intrusives and sediments. The deposit outcrops at surface and has excellent geometry for open-pit mining. The deposit was discovered in 1947 and sporadically drilled from 1950 until 1982. In 1985, Soviet state-approved resource was calculated using nickel cut-off grades of 0.3 per cent, 0.4 per cent and 0.5 per cent, to the maximum drilled depth of 1,000 metres.

Centrasia cautions investors that the Soviet-classified resources are not NI 43-101 compliant and that Canadian Institute of Mining (CIM) and Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) resource categories do not directly conform to, nor recognize, the Soviet C2, P1, P2 and P3 resource categories. A qualified person as defined by NI 43-101 has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the historical estimates should not be relied upon. Centrasia does not consider the historical estimates to be current mineral resources, but it does consider the historic estimates to be a significant indication of the overall mineral potential, as discussed above.

The two other sulphide nickel-copper properties are located in the Kola Peninsula and are reported to contain historic, Soviet-classified P2 and P3 resources. Centrasia views these projects as promising, early-stage nickel-copper exploration targets.

Centrasia has engaged SRK Engineering's Toronto and Moscow offices to complete the report. It is anticipated that the report will be completed by mid-June, 2007. Upon closing of the acquisition of the deposit, Centrasia will immediately undertake a program to verify and convert the historic Soviet resource to an NI 43-101-compliant resource.

Douglas Turnbull, Centrasia's president and chief executive officer, states: "This acquisition will have an immense impact on the company's asset value and is a very important step in the company's overall growth. We will be undertaking an aggressive work program at the deposit over the next two years in order to push it through to feasibility as quickly as possible. We are very bullish on nickel and we are convinced that expediting the development of the deposit is the best way to capitalize on what we believe will be very favourable nickel prices for the next decade. It was very fortunate that AGA Management of Nicosia, Cyprus, was the exclusive legal and financial consultant for the vendor, while DBM Capital Partners fulfilled this role on Centrasia's behalf. Both groups played a very important role in ensuring that the transaction was negotiated and signed."

Centrasia's exploration programs are carried out under the supervision of William Tafuri, PGeol, the company's vice-president of exploration and a qualified person for the purposes of NI 43-101. Mr. Tafuri has compiled and reviewed the technical information presented in this news release.

RE: CTM

etwas early stage, aber ich schaus mir mal an.
Obwohl sich ja einige Firmen in Russland und GUS Staaten eine blutige Nase geholt haben.
