INSIDE INFORMATION

JORC CODE-COMPLIANT GOLD RESOURCE INCREASED TO

3 MILLION OUNCES

This announcement is made by China Hanking Holdings Limited (the "Company") pursuant to Rule
13.09 of the Rules Governing the Listing of Securities on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the Inside Information Provisions under Part XIVA of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571, Laws of Hong Kong).
The board of directors of the Company (the "Board") is pleased to announce that Hanking Gold Mining Pty Ltd ("Hanking Gold", a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) has recently completed a new drilling program and new resource estimate, the gold resource measured under the Australasian Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves by the Joint Ore Reserves Committee (version 2012) ("JORC Code") has been increased to 3 million ounces.
The Company has recently completed a major drilling program at its wholly-owned Axehandle gold deposit, which is part of the Southern Cross Operations gold project ("SXO Gold Project") (Figure
1), while it is working towards its goal to produce 100,000 ounces of gold in 2015. Axehandle is located at the south of the current open-pit mine of Cornishman and is closer to the Marvel Loch Processing Plant than Cornishmen. It is on the side of Hanking Gold's haul road to the Processing Plant (Figure 1). Hanking Gold planned and drilled 85 holes for 11,460 meters, including 71 reverse circulation drill holes for 8,953 meters and 14 reverse circulation diamond drill holes for 2,507 meters (Figure 2). Based on these drilling results and interpretation of the geology of the Company, as well as the previous prospecting and exploration drilling of 26,685.3 meters in 200 holes (Figure 2), CSA Global Pty Limited, a global independent consulting company headquartered in Australia, completed the resource estimate in accordance with JORC Code. The new JORC Code-compliant resource of deposit at Axehandle has been increased to 3.76 million tons at an average grade of 2.5 gram/tonne

for 301,000 ounces of gold. Such amount of gold deposit is at least two times more than that at the time of acquisition by the Company and such deposit is with higher grade and mostly in the measured
and indicated categories (Table 1).

Commenting on this latest result, the executive director of the Company and president and chief executive officer of Hanking Gold, Dr. Qiu Yumin, said that, "This significant resource increase further demonstrates the growth potential of the SXO Gold Project. Most importantly, the Axehandle resource is near surface and is suitable for low cost open-pit mining. It will extends our mine life and creates substantial value for shareholders of the Company".
