Overview

Lydian is a diversified UK mineral exploration and development company, with expertise employing “first mover” strategies in international emerging environments. The Company is currently focused on Eastern Europe, exploring the Balkan and Caucasus regions, and is developing advanced precious and base metal assets located in Armenia and in Kosovo.

Lydian’s management team has a track record of success in grassroots discovery, acquiring and developing undervalued assets, and in building companies. Lydian has a strong social agenda and a unique understanding of the complex social and political issues that characterise emerging environments.

The Company’s two main projects are gold at Armulsar in Armenia, and zinc, lead, silver and gold at Drazhnje in Kosovo. Lydian has a pipeline of promising gold and base metal exploration projects in the Balkans region, and operates a 50/50 gold and copper exploration joint venture with Newmont in the Caucasus region.

Lydian’s two largest shareholders are Newmont and International Finance Corporation (part of the World Bank Group).

Investment Catalysts

• Lydian has multiple licenses granted for highly prospective projects in Eastern Europe,
  including a new and extremely promising gold discovery at Armulsar, Armenia.

• Lydian is focused on opportunistic exploration and development, and maintaining
  a pipeline of promising new discoveries.

• The Company's management team has a proven track record in discovery, high-quality
  project acquisition, and in quick advancement to feasibility stages.

• Lydian's business model is geared to advancing projects to decision points, where
  the most favoured exit strategy would be to seek a local partner and maintain
  an equity position from a producing mine. Alternatively, the company may opt to:
  • joint Venture the project with a major;
  • or float off an asset, offering it to existing and new shareholders.

Lydian’s 2008 Objectives

• NI-43101 compliant resource at Armulsar Project in Armenia.
• NI-43101 compliant resource and pre-feasibility at Drazhnje Project in Kosovo.
  
• Drill test Crepulje and Rahovec Projects, Kosovo.
  
• Advance other licenses to drilling stage.
• Advance and secure assets in new environments.
• Build investor outreach and shareholder base.
