Currently, Altan Rio holds three projects in Mongolia, including a significant new discovery of gold and copper mineralisation across a very large area of relatively unexplored ground in western Mongolia, the Chandman-Yol project, and a Boroo-style gold project in northern Mongolia, the Khavchuu project. A drill-indicated discovery was achieved in 2009 at Chandman with exciting exploration results in 2010 pointing to a very large copper-gold porphyry system that was drilled during the 2011 and 2012 field seasons. Recent drill results showed a zoned metal system with high gold grades (28 g/t), strong molybdenum anomalies (100 ppm) and unusually high silver (100+ g/t), lead (>10,000 ppm) and zinc (>10,000 ppm) grades. Sampling and IP surveys in 2011 at Khavchuu led to the identification of three main drill targets. Results from the inaugural 2011 drill program at Khavchuu intersected significant gold and/or arsenic anomalies with the highest grade being 11.49 g/t Au over 1 m.

Purevbat, with outstanding skills and over twenty-seven years of combined experience, including recently gained discovery experience with western corporations. The company’s small National administrative staff is highly effective in assuring all aspects of our operation maintain high professional standards and continually focus on mineral discoveries.

IN FOCUS: CHANDMAN-YOL

The vast (825 km2) land package comprising the Chandman-Yol project in western Mongolia. A new copper gold discovery at Chandman coincides with a revitalization of mining investment in Mongolia following the Oyu Tolgoi investment agreement between the Mongolian government, Turquoise Hill Resources (formerly Ivanhoe Mines) and Rio Tinto. This historic alliance allows the world’s largest undeveloped copper-gold project to advance towards production.

Targets: Copper-gold porphyry intrusions and structures in the Sayan-Altaids arc systemArea: ~82,506 ha, or ~825 km2

Location: Khovd Aimag, western MongoliaOwnership: 4 tenements 100% owned & 5 tenements 100% owned with a 2.5% NSR

Chandman-Yol is a recently discovered “grass-roots” trend of porphyry copper-gold systems spanning more than 50 km of strike length. Altan Rio’s license block covers all known anomalies and represents the dominant land position in the region. To date, Altan Rio has invested US$5M exploring the project with recent work including geophysical surveys, geochemistry, sampling, trenching and diamond drilling. Geophysical, geochemical and mapping results to date support the basic exploration concepts for a large-scale copper-gold porphyry system and potential deposits. Targets consist of broad zones of highly anomalous copper and gold located in a magnetic low, 3 km-long and 1 km-wide, thought to represent a large sulphidized body at depth. These deeper targets are supported by new IP geophysics and the main higher chargeability portions of the anomalies were targeted in the 2011 field-season with 13 holes completed for a total of 7,800 m drilled. The highest gold grade achieved was in CH-27, which returned 1 m at 28.02 g/t at a depth of 206 m. Hole CH-28 returned unusually high silver intersections including 39.6 m @ 24.57 g/t with 2.5 m @ 128.3 g/t and 2.2 m @ 114.26 g/t. The 2012 drill season targeted shallower targets with 7 holes completed for a total of 3,030 m drilled. Several new zones of gold and copper mineralization were intersected, including a shallow intercept beginning at 16.30 m from surface of 8.05 m at 1.77 g/t gold, including 2.5 m @ 5.38 g/t gold.
