ANATOLIA MINERALS DEVELOPMENT LIMITED

Anatolia Minerals Development Ltd, announced plans to drill the large, underlying sulfide gold deposit at its Copler Gold Project in eastern central Turkey. This drill program is part of Anatolia’s current sulfide development plan, which is expected to culminate in a preliminary feasibility study by early 2010. The drill plan includes approximately 12,000 meters, designed primarily to extend and better define the gold mineralization of several known sub-vertical structures encountered during earlier drilling. Concurrently, management is continuing metallurgical testing of sulfide samples collected during the 2008 drilling program and evaluating processing alternatives.
