March 2015 Quarterly Activities Report

Central Asia Resources (ASX: CVR) (the Company) is pleased to report on its activities on its gold projects in Kazakhstan, Central Asia for the Quarter ending 31 March 2015 (the Quarter).

OPERATIONS

Dalabai (90% owned)

The Dalabai Operation is located in the Chu Ili gold belt in southern Kazakhstan. Dalabai is located

2.5 hours' drive from Almaty, with a major highway to the project.

Mining commenced in July 2014 but was halted in October 2014 due to delays with debt funding from Halyk Bank as previously announced. The Dalabai site remains secure with a care and maintenance team in place.

A court order from the Taldygordan Public Prosecutor has been issued to the third-party processor, instructing them to release retained cathode gold from the December quarter (145 ounces gold and

1,113 ounces silver), allowing this gold sale to be finalised.

No safety incidents were reported for the quarter from either employees or contractors.

Altyntas, Kepken and Kengir gold projects (95% owned)

The Altyntas project is located 500km north-west of Almaty in the Tien Shen gold province in Kazakhstan. It contains the Altyn Tas, Kepken and Kengir prospects, all located within 40km of Altyntas and to be evaluated as part of a regional Altyntas strategy.

An application for a 3 year extension of term of the Altyn Tas exploration licence has been submitted, along with a proposed work program. This work program was approved by the Exploration and Mining committee during October 2014 and the application will next be considered by the Geology Committee before being referred to the Ministry for approval. The Geology Committee has still not completed it's deliberations, awaiting reports from 3 'external experts'. No site activity occurred during the Quarter and no further developments on the licence extension are reported.

CORPORATE Funding

Discussions with the Halyk Bank, with whom the Company established a debt facility for US$0.9m (Tranche 1) and $1.6m (Tranche 2), continue, and on 2nd April 2015, Halyk agreed to a further 3 months standstill of repayments to allow completion of new funding.

Several investor groups completed site visits to Dalabai during the quarter and undertook due diligence, with assistance from an Almaty-based consultancy. The Board anticipates that it will complete an asset sale or secure project funding during the June quarter, with several parties showing strong interest.

2014 Accounts were not submitted by 31st March. While Consolidated Accounts have been

compiled, signed-off Accounts from the Kazakh subsidiary companies are not yet available due to funding constraints. These will be completed as a priority when funds are available.
