Lydian International Ltd. is a mineral exploration and development company, with expertise employing “first mover” strategies in emerging environments.

The probability of discovering large, “World-Class” mining projects is higher in prospective yet neglected regions. Lydian has illustrated this unequivocally with its discovery of the Amulsar gold project in Armenia. After just one full season of drilling, this project already has an initial (NI-43101 compliant) inferred resource of one-million ounces gold and remains open and untested in all directions.

Highlights

•  New gold discovery which after just one season of drilling has a one million ounce oxide inferred resource (NI-43101 compliant) open and untested in all directions
•  Plus million ounce potential
•  25 year mining license granted three years since discovery
• Excellent infrastructure on sealed main road with high-tension power lines, gas and water pipe-lines transecting the license
•  5km2 of known gold mineralization, of which just 25% has been drill tested so far
•  Heap leach simulation tests indicate 94% to 97% recoveries

In the Caucasus region Lydian operates an exploration joint-venture with Newmont Overseas Exploration Ltd. (a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation). Lydian also owns an advanced poly-metallic (zinc-lead-silver-gold) project at Drazhnje, and an extensive, very high grade, early stage zinc-lead oxide prospect at Crepulje in Kosovo.

Lydian's three largest institutional share holders are International Finance Corporation (IFC: Part of the World Bank Group), Newmont Mining Corporation and the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development. The IFC and the EBRD provide Lydian with influential in-country support and valuable advice to manage environmental, social and governance risks. This bolsters Lydian’s competitive advantage in securing high quality assets in prospective emerging environments.

Lydian benefits from the leadership of an experienced and renowned management team with a proven discovery record.
