Eurasia Mining plc
Interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2026
Eurasia Mining plc ("Eurasia" or the "Company"), the iridium, osmium, palladium, platinum, rhodium, ruthenium and gold mining company, announces its interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2026.
Chairman’s Statement
It is my pleasure to summarise our progress, as the first half of 2026 saw an important step in our plans to realise value from our assets. Our majority interest in the West Kytlim mine, held through our 68% ownership in Kosvinsky Kamen, was approved for sale by shareholders in January this year. The plan for the sale would allow us to focus on our key assets, holding 99.7% of our reserves and resources of the key metals (nickel-copper-precious metals) in the key region of Arctic in Kola, comprising the Monchetundra permitted mine and the adjacent NKT formerly operating mine. The combination of these two mines is planned as the nexus for the first-mover advantage in the development of a new mining cluster in the Arctic.
As we have discussed before, we continue to keep our options open, as changes in the geopolitical context may change our priorities.
Geopolitics
Geopolitics has been the most important driver of Eurasia’s market value for the past five years; thus, it is important to summarise the key geopolitical developments.
We wait hopefully for a negotiated settlement of the conflict in Ukraine, as highlighted as a feasible option in JPMorgan’s insight piece in May 20261. Unfortunately, as predicted, escalation is happening prior to the settlement. However, and most importantly, the negotiations have started involving not only the parties to the conflict, but also several third parties that are key to a successful conflict resolution:
The above list can be continued, as more countries have now joined the effort for a negotiated settlement by the end of this year and to prevent a global economic crisis.
West Kytlim
As announced in the Annual Report, 2025 ended with the record level of production exceeding 10Koz of PGM concentrate, with two plants fully equipped for running under freezing temperatures. By the time of this interim report publication, two additional plants (four in total) have been fully equipped for the winter season.
The major part of production normally takes place in the second half of the year, as was the case in 2025, when there was no revenue in the first six months of the year. This year, £2,297,735 in revenue was already generated in the first half of the year (nil in 1H2025), and the profit for 1H2026 was approximately £0.8 million.
Kola Arctic Assets
In the Arctic, advancement of the tier-1 world-class NKT brownfield asset continued. As reported, Kola Arctic assets comprise approximately 99.7% of the Group's total reserves and resources. These include the Monchetundra mine launch and the NKT formerly operating mine relaunch.
The Company remains well prepared for the next steps planned since early 2026, and we look forward to updating you as work proceeds.
As a long-term significant shareholder myself, I am grateful to our shareholders for their continued patience and support. Geopolitics has had its impact on our plans for a number of recent years. Thus, the ongoing multinational peace effort discussed above is helping the company to get back on track to create value for all shareholders.

Provision is made for the cost of restoration and environmental rehabilitation of the land disturbed by the West Kytlim mining operations, based on the estimated future costs using information available at the reporting date.
The provision is discounted using a risk-free discount rate of from 13.39% to 16.93% (2025: 12.99% to 14.99%) depending on the commitment terms, attributed to the Russian Federal Bonds.
Provision is estimated based on the sub-areas within general West Kytlim mining licence the company has carried down its operations on by the end of the reporting period. Timing is stipulated by the forestry permits issued at the pre-mining stage for each of sub-areas. Actual costs in respect of the long-term provision recognised by 30 June 2026 will be incurred within 2026-2040.
