Centerra Comments On Kyrgyz Government Public Statements

09.04.2015  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - April 09, 2015) - Centerra Gold Inc. (TSX: CG) announced today that it is aware of certain statements made by the Prime Minister of the Kyrgyz Republic at a meeting of the Kyrgyz Republic Parliament and to local media. The statements by the Prime Minister suggest that the restructuring of the Kumtor Project as a 50/50 joint venture between Centerra and Kyrgyzaltyn JSC, as previously announced by Centerra in its news release of December 24, 2013, would not be in the interests of the Kyrgyz Republic. The Prime Minister is also reported to have stated that nationalization of the Kumtor mine is not a viable alternative. Additionally, the Prime Minister is reported to have proposed changes or additions to the composition of Centerra's Board of Directors.

Centerra will continue to engage constructively and in good faith with the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic to resolve all outstanding matters affecting the Kumtor Project. There are no assurances that continued discussions between the Kyrgyz Government and Centerra will result in a mutually acceptable solution regarding the Kumtor Project, that any agreed upon proposal for restructuring would receive the necessary legal and regulatory approvals under Kyrgyz law and/or Canadian law and that the Kyrgyz Republic Government and/or Parliament will not take actions that are inconsistent with the Government's obligations under the Kumtor Project Agreements, including adopting a law "denouncing" or purporting to cancel or invalidate the Kumtor Project Agreements or laws enacted in relation thereto.

Although the forward-looking information in this news release reflects Centerra's current beliefs as of the date of this news release based on information currently available to management and based upon what management believes to be reasonable assumptions, Centerra cannot be certain that actual results, performance, achievements, prospects and opportunities, either expressed or implied will be consistent with such forward-looking information. Forward-looking information is necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Centerra, are inherently subject to significant political, business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking information. Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, political and regulatory risks, including the political risks associated with the Company's principal operations in the Kyrgyz Republic, resource nationalism, the impact of changes in, or to the more aggressive enforcement of, laws, regulations and government practices in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the impact of any actions taken by the Kyrgyz Republic Government and Parliament as a result of the Kyrgyz State Commission on Kumtor, any impact on the purported cancellation of Kumtor's land use rights at the Kumtor Project, the impact of changes to, or the increased enforcement of, environmental laws and regulations relating to the Company's operations; risks relating to the Company's ability to enforce its legal rights, risks associated with having a significant shareholder, and possible director conflicts of interest.
