is pleased to announce that it has regained 100% control of the Akarca gold-silver project in Turkey (the 'Property'). EMX had an agreement with Çolakoglu Ticari Yatirim A.S. ('Çolakoglu'), a privately owned Turkish company, for an option to acquire EMX's 100% owned subsidiary, AES Madencilik A.S. ('AES Turkey'), a Turkish corporation that controls the Property (see EMX news release dated June 20, 2013). Çolakoglu has advised EMX that it decided to forego exercising the option. Çolakoglu has made cash payments of US $350,000 to EMX while advancing the Property through substantial exploration and drilling programs, as well as metallurgical and environmental studies.

The Akarca project is an EMX grassroots discovery highlighted by six separate gold-silver mineralized centers occurring within a district-scale area (please see attached map). Exploration completed to date includes 245 core and reverse circulation holes totaling about 26,400 meters of drilling and property-wide geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, and geophysical surveys. This work has been conducted primarily through partner-funded programs totaling over US $13 million that considerably advanced the project. The Akarca project is available for partnership, and EMX is engaging in discussions with a number of interested parties. See www.eurasianminerals.com for more information.

Akarca Overview. Gold and silver mineralization at Akarca occurs within structurally focused veins and vein sets, as well as in silicified hanging wall and footwall zones. The quartz veins typically host higher grade mineralization, while the silicified halos in the wall-rocks host lower grade disseminated mineralization. Exploration results from the six known prospect areas are summarized below.

• Kucukhugla Tepe is a 700 meter long, northwest trending zone of parallel vein systems that locally host higher grade oxide mineralization. Drilling has intersected high-grade zones within broader intercepts of gold-silver mineralization, including sub-intervals from AKC-131 of 2.6 meters (39.0-41.6 m) averaging 35.31 g/t Au and 226.6 g/t Ag, and AKC-132 with 0.9 meters (27.3-28.2 m) averaging 111.50 g/t Au and 906.0 g/t Ag (true widths interpreted as 45-55% of reported interval lengths, see EMX news release dated March 2, 2015).
• Fula Tepe is a broad corridor of veining and silicification with a strike length of 950 meters and width of over 400 meters. Drilling has delineated oxide gold-silver mineralization in the main Fula Tepe zone and also identified new, sub-parallel mineralized zones with reconnaissance step-out holes. Drill results include an intercept of 19.8 meters (28.9-48.7 m) averaging 8.49 g/t Au and 60.3 g/t Ag, which includes a 1.0 meter sub-interval (45.2-46.2 m) of 155.5 g/t Au and 1060.0 g/t Ag from AKC-120 (true width interpreted as 64% of reported interval length, see EMX news release dated July 17, 2014).
• The Hugla Tepe prospect is a 650 meter long zone of oxide gold-silver mineralization, quartz veining and IP-resistivity anomalies. The zone is oriented along a northeast strike direction that is parallel to, and approximately 400 meters southeast of, Fula Tepe. Drill results include an intercept of 17.4 meters (35.6-53.0 m) averaging 3.71 g/t Au and 6.8 g/t in AKC-193 (true width interpreted as 85% of reported interval length, see EMX news release dated March 2, 2015).
• Sarikaya Tepe is the furthest west of the known zones of mineralization on the Property, and forms a distinctive north-south trending topographic high held up by multiple vein sets and silicified wall rocks. Sarikaya is notable for hosting higher grade mineralization, including an oxide intercept reported from AKC-70 of 36.4 meters (0-36.4 m) averaging 5.67 g/t Au and 53.31 g/t Ag, with a sub-interval of 2.15 meters (23.6-25.75 m) averaging 89.34 g/t Au and 835.16 Ag g/t (true width interpreted as 60-75% of reported interval length, see EMX news release dated January 18, 2013).
• Drilling at the Percem Tepe prospect on the east side of the Property has outlined oxide gold-silver mineralization hosted in two bodies of brecciated and veined material that appear to be gently dipping to the northeast. This style of mineralization is a distinctive feature of Percem Tepe, in which extensive zones of mineralized breccias and replacement bodies have been encountered, such as 101.0 meters averaging 1.25 g/t Au and 7.95 g/t Ag from 18.2 to 119.2 meters from AKC-74 (true width interpreted as 65-75% of reported interval length, see EMX news release dated March 1, 2013).
• Arap Tepe hosts oxide gold-silver mineralization developed in a series of east-west zones of veining and silicification. Drill results include an intercept of 50.4 meters (5.0-55.4 m) averaging 3.39 g/t Au and 5.28 g/t Ag which includes a 3.0 meter sub-interval (31.0-34.0 m) of 33.53 g/t Au and 28.92 g/t Ag from AKC-120 (true width interpreted as 65-85% of reported interval length, see EMX news release dated December 21, 2010). Only one of the zones at Arap Tepe has been systematically drilled (Zone A), with the other zones presenting upside exploration opportunities.

The continuity of Akarca's near-surface oxide zones of gold-silver mineralization has been delineated at a 25 to 50 meter drill spacing. All of the known zones remain open along strike and to depth. Further, reconnaissance and step-out drilling have demonstrated ample potential for new discoveries on the Property.

Comments on Sampling, Assaying, and QA/QC. The Akarca exploration and drill samples have been collected in accordance with industry best practice standards and guidelines. The samples were submitted to ALS Chemex laboratories in Izmir, Turkey (ISO 9001:2000) and Vancouver, Canada (ISO 9001:2000 and 17025:2005 accredited) for sample preparation and analysis. Gold was analyzed by fire assay with an AAS finish, and silver underwent aqua regia digestion and analysis with MS/AES techniques. Over limit assays for gold (> 10 g/t Au) were conducted with fire assay and a gravimetric finish, and over limit analyses for silver (> 100 g/t Ag) were performed with aqua regia digestion and ICP/AES techniques. As standard procedure, QA/QC analysis is carried out on all assay results, including the systematic utilization of certified reference materials, blanks, and duplicate samples.
