Centurion Gold Holdings Announces New Strategy As Resource Development Company; Strategy to Create Significant Shareholder Value Through Disbursement of Stock and Cash Dividends.


JOHANNESBURG, South Africa South Africa, Afrikaans Suid-Afrika, officially Republic of South Africa, republic (2005 est. pop. 44,344,000), 471,442 sq mi (1,221,037 sq km), S Africa.  -- In a move to leverage its significant natural resource holdings, Centurion Gold Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB OTCBB

See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB).
:CGHI) announced today that it has grown beyond its beginnings as a gold mining company and is now successfully pursuing its business strategy as a natural resources development company.

The Company's core strategy is to buy under-priced natural resources assets including minerals, oil, and gas, contribute limited yet critical development to those assets, and resell re·sell

 the enhanced assets to specialized resource companies. The spun-out assets will be sold for cash or stock. A percentage of proceeds from these sales will be issued to Centurion shareholders in the form of a stock or cash dividend.

"At Centurion we have developed a core skill in identifying and purchasing natural resource assets at very advantageous pricing levels. Rather than continuing to try to fully develop the numerous valuable assets we have acquired, we are shifting our strategy to sell off assets to other specialized natural resource companies as profit opportunities present themselves," stated Centurion Gold Holdings Chairman Dale Paul.

 to sell 10.4% of its holdings in Naboom Platinum Deposit to an OFEX-listed company for 20 million shares. The LOI prices the entirety of the Naboom deposit at more than $17 million, over 50% of Centurion's current market capitalization Market Capitalization

. Management intends to distribute to Centurion shareholders a portion of the 20 million share proceeds.

"Our transaction to sell Centurion's interest in Naboom is an example of how we are pursuing our new strategy as a natural resources development company. We have owned Naboom for approximately a half-year and are now in the process of selling a portion of it at a significant upside Upside

 for Centurion and its shareholders. We will continue to pursue and conclude similar transactions that we believe will leave our shareholders with a portfolio of stock and cash dividends while they continue to own their Centurion shares. Additionally, our new strategy improves cash flow and reduces dilution by transferring operational and resource extraction costs to the companies who purchase Centurion assets. We intend to have ongoing business relationships with the companies that acquire our spun-out assets including co-development, shared board seats and expertise," concluded Mr. Paul.

"The recent acquisition of the Alaskan Oil and Gas project fits in perfectly with our new strategy and represents tremendous upside potential Upside potential

Centurion Gold Holdings, Inc.:

Centurion Gold Holdings is the only South African junior gold mining company publicly listed in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area. . The Company is executing a roll-up strategy acquiring proven mineral assets, and working towards "growth through acquisition". These mineral assets generally have combined the potential for a near term revenue stream and existing low cost production operations with turnaround opportunities. Based in South Africa, the Company is ideally suited to exploit new legislation implemented by the South African government in May 2004. This legislation enforces a "use it or lose it" strategy, whereby all mining claims must be prospected within a designated time frame, otherwise, such prospects revert to the state, thereby creating never before seen opportunities, particularly for smaller companies like Centurion. The Company has built a strong team of experienced management and operations mining professionals to exploit these opportunities, and is positioning itself to become a major producer by continually implementing its "growth through acquisition" strategy. www.centuriongold.com
