The reverse circulation ("RC") drilling phase of the current program is now complete; diamond drilling Diamond Drilling is a highly specialized industry used for mineral exploration around the world. Most commonly using wireline and core bits with diamond encrusted matrix. To drill holes to max depths of twelve thousand feet, for the recovery of core used in verifying mineral is ongoing. To date, there has been 1,745 meters of diamond drilling in 8 holes, including the four holes drilled by the joint venture in previous programs. In the current phase of drilling, one hole to 458 meters is complete and three others are in progress. RC drilling in this current phase includes 2,543 meters in 18 holes. Five additional extension diamond drill holes are planned. Drilling of this copper porphyry Porphyry, Greek scholar Porphyry (pôr`fĭrē), c.232–c.304, Greek scholar and Neoplatonic philosopher.

It belongs to a group of sulfide minerals formed at relatively low temperatures. Chalcocite alters to native copper and other copper minerals. enriched blanket in 2 widely spaced holes. In addition, several locations along the outer fringes of the currently mapped system were drill tested. The table below summarizes initial results available to date from the Main Ridge Zone drill holes, including KIZ-001, KIZ-002, KIZ-002A and KIZ-003 which were drilled by the joint venture in earlier programs. Also attached is a map that indicates the locations of the holes. This map is posted to Anatolia's web site (www.anatolia-minerals.com).

" KRC-003 is a very important hole for us. Not only are the grades outstanding, but its location between the 750 meter interval of KIZ-001 and KIZ-002A gives us encouragement that we'll be able to establish continuity of the enriched blanket along the Main Ridge," commented Richard C. Moores, President of Anatolia. Additionally, KRC-001, at the northern extent of the Main Ridge, extends the known mineralization an additional 425 meters to the northwest of KIZ-001. At a depth of 17 meters, KRC-001 intersected 3 meters averaging 0.95% copper, 0.04 gpt gold and 57 ppm molybdenum. Following an interval of low grade mineralization and starting at 91 meters, 44 meters averaging 0.51% copper, 0.06 gpt gold and 58 ppm molybdenum was intersected, including 18 meters averaging 0.68% copper, 0.07 gpt gold and 85 ppm molybdenum. Mr. Moores noted, "With KRC-001, we've now established the presences of good mineralization in 4 drill holes along 1.2 kilometers of the Main Ridge Zone. All 4 holes intersected the chalcocite enriched blanket and show promising grades and intervals in the primary mineralization." He added, "Much more drilling will be needed, but we're pleased with this early success along the Main Ridge." Five other holes were drilled to test several soil geochemical anomalies along the outer fringes of the system. These exploratory holes include KRC-005 through KRC-009, which were drilled up to 1.5 kilometers west of KIZ-001. The Fringe Zone drill holes generally returned no significant results.

Anatolia has been engaged in minerals exploration in Turkey since 1996. In January 2004, Anatolia obtained 100% interest in the 4-million ounce inferred gold resource at Copler. Anatolia is fast-tracking work at Copler to achieve an early production decision for an open pit gold operation for the shallow leachable oxide oxide, chemical compound containing oxygen and one other chemical element. Oxides are widely and abundantly distributed in nature. Water is the oxide of hydrogen. Silicon dioxide is the major component of sand and quartz. portion of Copler. The Company also controls approximately 1.1 million hectares within Turkey, including four properties currently under joint exploration with Rio Tinto. The Rio Tinto agreement continues through 2007 and requires payment by Rio Tinto of expenditures for grassroots programs, specific prospect costs in which Rio Tinto is participating, and portions of Anatolia's Turkish field office expenses.
