CENTRASIA MINING CORP. NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2007 (Unaudited - Prepared by Management) 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS The Company's principal business activity is the sourcing, exploration and development of mineral properties in the Kyrgyz Republic and Russia. See also Note 3. The Company is in the process of exploring and evaluating its mineral properties. On the basis of information to date, it has not yet determined whether these properties contain economically recoverable ore reserves. The underlying value of the unproven mineral interests is entirely dependent on the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete development and upon future profitable production. The amounts shown as unproven mineral interests represent net costs to date, less amounts written off, and do not necessarily represent present or future values. These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. While the Company has been successful in securing financings in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future. Accordingly, it does not give effect to adjustments, if any, that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts which may differ from those shown in the consolidated financial statements. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION These interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the interim financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These interim financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly prepared using careful judgement with reasonable limits of materiality. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial statements. The significant accounting policies follow that of the most recently reported annual financial statements. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Effective June 1, 2007 the Company has adopted two new accounting standards related to financial instruments that were issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. These accounting policy changes were adopted on a prospective basis with no restatement of prior period financial statements. The new standards and accounting policy changes are as follows: Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement (Section 3855) In accordance with this new standard, the Company now classifies all financial instruments as either held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, held-for-trading, loans and receivables, or other financial liabilities. Financial assets held-to-maturity, loans and receivables and financial liabilities other than those held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost. Available-for-sale instruments are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income. Instruments classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized on the statement of loss. CENTRASIA MINING CORP. NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2007 (Unaudited - Prepared by Management) 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Upon adoption of this new standard, the Company has designated its cash and cash equivalents as held-for-trading, which are measured at fair value. Exploration advances and other receivables are classified as loans and receivables, which are measured at amortized cost. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost. As at August 31,2007 the Company did not have any financial assets classified as available-for-sale and therefore the adoption of the standards noted above had no effect on the presentation of the Company's financial statements. Comprehensive Income (Section 1530) Comprehensive income is the change in shareholders' equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. In accordance with this new standard, the Company now reports a statement of comprehensive income and a new category, accumulated other comprehensive income, in the shareholders' equity section of the balance sheet. The components of this new category will include unrealized gains and losses on financial assets classified as available-for-sale. 3. ACQUISITION On May 11, 2007 the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary, Magellan Holdings (BVI) Corp. and Stargate Solutions Ltd. ("Stargate") entered into a share purchase agreement (the "Share Purchase Agreement") whereby the Company agreed to purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of R.P.I.M. Minerals Ltd., (the "RPIM Acquisition") a Cyprus company incorporated solely to hold a 100% interest in the shares of ZAO Rudprominvest ("RPI"). The consideration payable by the Company to Stargate under the Share Purchase Agreement is: i) an aggregate US $12,500,000, of which US $6,000,000 is payable on closing (the "Closing"), US $5,000,000 is payable on the first anniversary of Closing, and US $1,500,000 is payable on the second anniversary of Closing; and ii) issuance of 12,500,000 common shares of the Company to be issued on Closing. The Company also agreed to pay DBM Capital Partners Ltd. ("DBM") a finder's fee of US $625,000 cash and 625,000 common shares. The share portion of the finder's fee and US $300,000 of the cash fee is payable on Closing. The balance of the cash finder's fee will be payable as the Company makes the balance of the payments for the RPIM Acquisition. As at May 31, 2007 the Company had advanced $226,860 (US $200,000) to RPI, paid $14,257 (US $12,472) in advances to DBM and incurred a total of $162,858 for due diligence and professional fees. These amounts were recorded by the Company as deferred acquisition costs and were included in the cost of the RPIM Acquisition on Closing. On July 24, 2007 (the "Effective Date") the Company completed the Closing of the RPIM Acquisition whereby it completed the initial cash payment of US $6,000,000 and issued 12,500,000 common shares, at a fair value of $12,000,000, to Stargate. In addition, the Company paid the initial finder's fee of US $300,000 and issued 625,000 common shares, at a fair value of $600,000, to DBM. The Company also issued 82,615 common shares, at a fair value of $79,310, to a company controlled by a director of the Company as a bonus for providing a loan of US $500,000 to RPI prior to Closing. The loan was repaid subsequent to completion of the RPIM Acquisition. CENTRASIA MINING CORP.

(a) Souker Property On July 24, 2007 the Company acquired a license (the "Souker License") on the Souker Property as a result of the RPIM Acquisition (see Note 3). The Souker Property is located in the Pechanga District of Murmansk Oblast, Russia. The Souker License grants the Company the right to explore, develop and produce the deposit subject to certain conditions stipulated by the license agreement. The Souker License is valid until December 15, 2030 and stipulates that the Company must commence production at a rate of 300,000 ore tonnes per annum no later than December 31, 2010. (b) Bulakashu Gold Property Under prior option agreements the Company had previously earned a 37.5% interest in the Bulakashu Gold Property, located in the Kyrgyz Republic. On August 17, 2007 the Company and Kantanna Company Limited ("Kantanna") entered into an amending agreement pursuant to which the Company issued 375,000 common shares of the Company, at a fair value of $405,000, to Kantanna and Kantanna agreed to forego the aggregate US $1,890,000 remaining expenditure commitment to acquire the remaining 62.5% interest. The Company now owns a 100% interest in the Bulakashu Gold Property. Kantanna is a private corporation owned by a director of the Company. (c) Eastern Sary Jaz Property During fiscal 2007 the Company issued 200,000 common shares, at a fair value of $96,000 to Kantanna, as consideration for the exploration licenses on the Eastern Sary Jaz Property, located in the northeastern region of the Kyrgyz Republic.

SHARE CAPITAL Authorized - unlimited common shares without par value

(a) During the three months ended August 31, 2007 the Company completed a brokered private placement of 10,500,000 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts"), at $1.20 per Subscription Receipt, for gross proceeds of $12,600,000. Each Subscription Receipt was subsequently exchanged, without additional consideration, for one common share of the Company and one-half share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to acquire one common share at a price of $1.70 per share on or before July 10, 2010. The Company paid the agents a cash commission of $945,000 and issued 840,000 warrants. Each warrant entitles the agents to acquire one common share at a price of $1.50 per share on or before July 24, 2009. The Company also paid CENTRASIA MINING CORP.

12. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The fair values of financial instruments at August 31, 2007 were estimated based on relevant market information and the nature and terms of financial instruments. Management is not aware of any factors which would significantly affect the estimated fair market amounts, however, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements. Disclosure subsequent to the balance sheet dates and estimates of fair value at dates subsequent to August 31, 2007 may differ significantly from that presented. Fair value approximates the amounts reflected in the financial statements for cash, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities due to their relative short periods to maturity. In addition, the fair value of long-term debt is approximated by their carrying amount as the debt bears a fair market rate of interest. The Company may be subject to currency risk due to the fluctuations of exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and other foreign currencies. However, the Company is not subject to significant interest and credit risks arising from these instruments. CENTRASIA MINING CORP.

CENTRASIA MINING CORP. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2007 BACKGROUND This discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operation is prepared as at October 26, 2007 and should be read in conjunction with the interim consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for the three months ended August 31, 2007, of Centrasia Mining Corp. ("Centrasia" or the "Company"). Those interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Except as otherwise disclosed, all dollar figures included therein and in the following management discussion and analysis ("MD&A") are quoted in Canadian dollars. Additional information relevant to the Company's activities, can be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com . COMPANY OVERVIEW The Company is a junior mineral exploration company actively engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties located in Kyrgyz Republic and other countries in Central Asia, Eastern Europe and Russia. On September 14, 2005, the Company completed a recapitalization whereby it purchased all of the issued and outstanding common shares of 0724000 B.C. Ltd. ("724 BC") in exchange for common shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis (the "Acquisition"). 724 BC's principal asset was an agreement (the "Marsa Option") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding share capital of BMC, from Marsa Gold Corp. ("Marsa"), a privately owned Kyrgyz company. The sole asset of BMC was a license permitting the exploration of an area in the north-central part of the Kyrgyz Republic, covering approximately 240 square kilometres (the "Bulakashu Gold Property"). The Marsa Option effectively allowed 724 BC to acquire its interest in the Bulakashu Gold Property. The completion of the Acquisition and issuance of Company shares on the purchase of $400,000 of indebtedness of 724 BC resulted in the 724 BC shareholders holding the majority of the combined Company's issued and outstanding common shares. Accordingly, the Acquisition was treated as a reverse takeover and effective September 14, 2005, the financial statements were treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization. See "Selected Financial Data" for further discussion. In November 2005, the Company agreed to reorganize its arrangement to acquire its interest in the Bulakashu Gold Property, replacing the Marsa Option, whereby BMC has transferred its ownership interest in Bulakashu Gold Property back to Marsa. Marsa then assigned all of its interests to Kantanna Company Limited ("Kantanna"). Both Marsa and Kantanna are owned by Mr. Oleg Kim, a director of the Company. As a result, BMC now holds an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Bulakashu Gold Property from Kantanna under the same terms as contemplated under the Marsa Option and directly hold the exploration licenses on the Eastern Sary Jaz Property. The Company issued 200,000 common shares to Kantanna as consideration for the Eastern Sary Jaz Property and the transfer of 100% ownership of BMC to the Company. In August of 2007, the Company entered into an amending agreement with Kantanna, pursuant to which Kantanna has agreed to forego the aggregate US$1,890,000 in exploration expenditures for 2007 and 2008, which was one of the requirements for Centrasia to acquire the remaining 62.5% interest in the Bulakashu Property that it had not acquired to date. The other requirement was the issuance of 375,000 shares to the vendor, which Centrasia has now been issued. Thus Centrasia has acquired the remaining 62.5% interest in the Bulakashu Property and now owns the entire Property. In August 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Turgeldy Property from Eurasian Minerals Inc. ("Eurasian"). Terms of the agreement included an immediate payment to Eurasian of 60,000 common shares of the Company for an option (the "Turgeldy Option") to acquire all rights and title to the Turgeldy exploration license, with Eurasian retaining a 1% Net Smelter Return royalty. The Company had up to six months from the date of signing to exercise the Turgeldy Option by making a cash payment of US $30,000 and issuing an additional 90,000 common shares to Eurasian. In the fall of 2006, Company field crews completed a preliminary mapping and sampling program at Turgeldy. The Company did not feel the results from the sampling program were - 1 - sufficiently encouraging to warrant the exercise of the Turgeldy option and on February 21, 2007 the Company terminated its option to acquire a 100% interest in the Turgeldy property. On May 14, 2007 the Company announced that it had signed a share purchase agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Souker Nickel-Copper deposit, and the Uleeta and Tsaga Nickel-Copper exploration properties (collectively the "Russian Properties") for initial payments of US $6,000,000 and 12,500,000 shares of Centrasia, with cash payments of an additional US $5,000,000 in 2008 and US $1,500,000 in 2009. On July 24, 2007 the Company announced that it had successfully completed the transaction and acquired a 100% interest in the Russian Properties through the acquisition of a Cyprus-registered company which owns a Russian-registered company which owns the Russian Properties. Centrasia made the initial cash payment of US $6,000,000 and issued 12,500,000 shares of Centrasia to the vendor, Stargate Solutions Limited. An initial finders/success fee of US $300,000 cash plus 625,000 shares has been paid to DBM Capital Partners Ltd. ("DBM"). All of the shares issued for the acquisition and to DBM are subject to an escrow agreement pursuant to which the shares will be released from escrow in the normal course over a period of eighteen months. On July 10, 2007, Centrasia completed a private placement for $12,600,000 from the sale of 10,500,000 subscription receipts (the "Subscription Receipts") at a price of $1.20 per Subscription Receipt. The Subscription Receipts were then released from escrow and exchanged for the issuance of 10,500,000 common shares of the Company and 5,250,000 transferable share purchase warrants. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one common share at a price of $1.70 until July 10, 2010. The Company currently is a reporting issuer in British Columbia and Alberta. The Company trades on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under the symbol "CTM", the Frankfurt Stock Exchange Open Market under the trading symbol "C8M" and on the OTCBB under the symbol "CTMHF". The Company is also registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as a foreign private issuer under the Securities Act of 1934.

On October 10, 2007, Mr. Damien Reynolds resigned as a director of the Company. EXPLORATION UPDATE Work during the first quarter of Fiscal 2008 consisted of the ongoing 6,000 metre drill program at the Bulakashu Property and field exploration program at the Eastern Sary Jaz Property in Kyrgyzstan. Additionally, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of a private Russian Company, Rudprominvest ("RPI") and it's three Exploration Licenses, the Souker Nickel Copper Sulphide Deposit, the Uleetaozerskaya ("Uleeta") and Tsaginksi ("Tsaga") nickel exploration licenses. Centrasia's exploration programs are carried out under the supervision of Bill Tafuri, P. Geol., the Company's Vice President of Exploration and a "Qualified Person" for the purposes of NI 43-101. Douglas Turnbull, P. Geol., the Company's President, C.E.O. and a "Qualified Person" for the purposes of NI 43-101, has prepared and reviewed the technical information presented in this MD&A. KYRGYZSTAN BULAKASHU PROJECT Exploration work in 2006 largely focused on the Severny Copper-Gold Prospect and the Karabulak Gold Prospect on the Company's Bulakashu Project. On October 5, 2006, the Company released results from a continuous sequence of 1 metre chip samples collected along a newly constructed drill road at Severny. Of the 81 new sample results from the road cut, four samples assayed greater than 5.0 g/t Au, 32 samples assayed greater than 1.0 g/t Au and 44 of the 81 samples assayed greater than 0.5 g/t Au. Within this series, one mineralized interval assayed 2.27 g/t Au over 48 metres, including 1 metre intervals of 10.5 g/t Au, 7.85 g/t Au, 6.61 g/t Au and 6.64 g/t Au. Copper results from these samples were weakly anomalous with 22 of the 48 samples assaying greater than 100 ppm copper. A total of 850 samples have been collected and assayed from Severny during the 2006 exploration program. Assays received range from nil to 4.5% Cu and up to 37.7 g/t Au. - 3 - During the summer of 2006, a 15 kilometre, dipole-dipole induced polarization ("I.P.") survey was completed over Severny and Karabulak. The interpretation of the results defined a zone of conductivity at Severny that remains open to the north and northeast, approximately 50 to 100 metres from surface. A very strong northwest trending, linear resistivity anomaly was identified on the southwest side of the Severny Prospect area, where surface sampling returned gold values ranging from nil to 37.7 g/t Au over one metre. At Karabulak, the I.P. survey identified a northwest dipping resistivity anomaly coincident with the WSW trending, NNW dipping, silicified quartz stockwork zone exposed on surface. The resistivity anomaly indicates that the quartz stock work zone remains open to the northeast and southwest and is open at depth on the middle and western most lines, suggesting that the quartz stockwork zone exposed on surface extends at least 200 metres down dip. In addition to the I.P. survey, a total of 52 chip samples were collected from the possible extensions to the known surface mineralization at Karabulak, with results ranging from nil to 1.68 g/t Au. Based on favourable results from the 2006 summer exploration program at Severny and Karabulak, Kichi Too Co., a local drilling and mining contractor, was contracted to complete a 2,000 metre drill program that would test targets, based on surface mineralization and associated IP anomalies. Drilling was originally scheduled to commence at Severny in September. However the arrival of the Kichi Too Co.'s drill rig and crew was delayed until mid-December. Due to the late start, severe winter conditions and avalanche hazards associated with the terrain at Severny, only one of the six proposed drill sites (SV06-01) was completed and the remainder of the proposed drill program was postponed until the spring of 2007. Drill hole SV06-01 intersected a broad zone of gold mineralization hosted in an alternating sequence of propylitically altered andesite and granodiorite. The mineralized interval returned an average grade of 1.15 g/t gold and anomalous copper mineralization over 50.5 metres. Drill hole SV06-01 is a vertical hole, drilled to a depth of 250 metres and collared within the southeastern portion of a 1arge 1km x 2 km zone of conductivity defined by the I.P. survey completed at Severny in the fall of 2006. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRILL HOLE FROM TO INTERVAL AU CU (m) (g/t) (ppm) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SV06-01* 33 83.5 50.5** 1.15 132 Including 48 52 4.0 5.86 248 Including 49 50 1.0 11.50 581 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Subsequent to the release for the results for drill hole SV06-01, the drill hole was re-named SV06-06. ** There is insufficient information to determine whether this interval represents true width Within the mineralized interval reported above, two samples assayed greater than 5.0 g/t Au, 17 samples assayed greater than 1.0 g/t Au and 34 samples assayed greater than 0.50 g/t Au. Several, sporadic intervals (1 - 3 metres) of gold mineralization were also intersected from surface to 33 metres. Assays for these intervals ranged from 0.10 g/t Au to 3.94 g/t Au. Surface chip sampling at Severny last fall returned a mineralized interval of 2.27 g/t Au over 48 metres within silicified andesite along a newly exposed road cut approximately 320 metres east of drill hole SV06-01. The silicified andesite intersected in this trench and in drill hole SV06-01 is similar in appearance to the altered andesite encountered in the previous drilling and trenching at the Karabulak Prospect, 1.2 kilometres to the south. In February 2007, the Company contracted Dick Fox of Practical Geophysics, Spring Creek Nevada, to provide a detailed, comprehensive interpretation of all ground geophysical data collected to date from the Severny and Karabulak Prospects on the Bulakashu Project. The interpretation was used to finalize drill targets for the summer of 2007. A total of approximately 6,000 metres of drilling has been proposed to test targets at Severny and Karabulak. The Company has contracted EDCO Drilling, a wholly owned subsidiary of TVI Pacific Inc., to provide two core rigs to conduct the year's drill program. Kichi Too Co. was also mobilized to the site with two drill rigs to complete the drilling they were contracted to do last year. They were also contracted to build drill access roads, some of which required drilling and blasting. During the second week of May, the company initiated its 2007 exploration and drill program on the Bulakashu Property with the opening of the site camp, the arrival of two drill rigs from Kichi Too Co. and commencement of the regional reconnaissance program. Due to delays in receiving all of the permits to operate in Kyrgyzstan the two EDCO diamond drill rigs and drill crews were not in a position to commence drilling as planned on June 1, 2007 and ultimately did not commence drilling until the last week of August because of this delay the company retained Kichi Too Co. to continue drilling past the amount specified in their contact. Although production from the Kichi Too drills has been slow, it was essential to retain their services until the company was certain the EDCO was going to receive the necessary permits from the Kyrgyz government and thus insure that this year's program would be completed. Since Severny is the highest priority prospect on the property, a decision was made to delay the drilling on Karabulak until 2008 and to complete as much drilling as possible at Severny. - 4 - As of October 3, 2007 17 drill holes have been completed for a total of 4, 082 metres and assay results are pending for 14 drill holes. Drilling for the 2007 season will soon be halted due to the onset of winter weather conditions. All drill holes have been systematically drilled at 200 metre centers along NE-SW trending fences designed to test an IP-resistivity anomaly and associated surface gold mineralization identified in the fall of 2006. Hole SV07-07 was drilled to a depth of 296 metres, intersecting sporadic gold mineralization and quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration ("QSP") throughout most of the hole. Hole SV07-08, 200m to the southwest of Hole SV07-07, was drilled to a depth of 501 metres, intersecting strengthening QSP alteration and gold mineralization over wider intervals. Hole SV07-09 was drilled to a depth of 320 metres, under a road cut where a surface rock chip sample returned 48m of 2.27 g/t gold. Hole SV07-09 intersected two distinct, broad zones of gold mineralization and associated intense QSP alteration. The mineralized intervals are separated by post mineral, unaltered andesite dikes. The mineralization and alteration vectors point toward the southwest where last year's rock chip surface sampling encountered gold values ranging from 0.14 g/t up to 37.7 g/t in QSP altered greenstones. The drill holes are not being completed in sequential order, and the table below shows the significant drill intercepts as of September 20, 2007. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HOLE AZIMUTH FROM TO INTERVAL AU DIP (METRES) (METRES) (METRES) (G/T) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SV07-07 0/90 54 61 7 1.07 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SV07-08 0/90 34 35 1 6.86 101 118 17 0.53 128 136 8 0.68 151 163 12 0.60 171 177 6 1.20 188 195.4 7 0.74 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SV07-09 0/90 1 44 43 1.49* including 1 12 11 2.46 including 17 25 12 2.31 92 149 47 1.38** including 92 97 5 2.80 including 100 109 9 2.10 including 114 118 4 2.45 including 126 133 7 2.36 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Interval contains 4 samples with gold analyses greater than 3.0 g/t Au (8.63, 4.58, 4.47 and 5.19 g/t Au) ** Interval contains 6 samples with gold analyses greater than 3.0 g/t Au ( 8.69, 3.69, 3.49, 3.84, 3.67, and 4.26 g/t Au) In addition to drilling, additional ground magnetic and IP/resistivity geophysical surveys have been conducted in the Bulakashu River basin to the west of Severny where extensions of the Severny structures and alteration halos were found. Preliminary results are encouraging and the pattern of magnetic lows, probably caused by magnetite destruction, are coincident with IP chargeability highs, probably caused by sulfidation, and are the same as found at Severny. The final interpretation and reports on the geophysics are being prepared. RUSSIA SOUKER PROJECT On May 14, 2007 the Company announced that it had signed a share purchase agreement to acquire the Russian Properties. The transaction was completed on July 24, 2007. See "Company Overview" for details of the transaction. As stated below, the Souker Deposit is reported to contain historic Soviet classified C2 and P1 resources which indicate an exploration target ranging from 11 million to as much as 179 million tonnes grading from 0.38% to 0.65% Nickel and from 0.13% to 0.29% Copper, which could contain in excess of 1 billion pounds of Nickel. Investors are cautioned that the potential quantity and grade is conceptual in nature and that there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the confirmation or discovery of a mineral resource. Souker is located approximately 180 kilometers west of Murmansk in the Kola Peninsula of northwestern Russia. The main highway from Murmansk to the Norwegian border lies on the north edge of the property. Graded gravel roads - 5 - give access to the center of the property and there is excellent access to power, water and a local work force. Two Norilsk-owned nickel smelters are located 12 kilometres to the west of the property in the town of Nickel, and 14 kilometres to the east of the property in the town of Zapolyarny. Nickel-copper mineralization occurs as disseminated sulfides in a sequence of ultramafic flows, intrusives and sediments. The ore body outcrops at surface and has excellent geometry for open pit mining. The Souker Deposit was discovered in 1947 and sporadically drilled from 1950 until 1982. In 1985, a Soviet classified resource was calculated using 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5% Ni cut off grades to the maximum drilled depth of 1,000 meters. The details of the estimate are tabulated below.

A Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the historical estimates should not be relied upon. Centrasia does not consider the historical estimates to be current mineral resources, but it does consider the historic estimates to be a significant indication of the overall mineral potential, as discussed above. Upon closing of the acquisition of the Souker Deposit, Centrasia implemented a drill program to verify and convert the historic Soviet resource to a NI 43-101 compliant resource. The previous operator had initiated a drill program designed to infill the historic soviet resource on 100 metre centers in order to convert the historic estimate from a C2 to C1 category. The Company will modify this program so that the ore body will be drilled at a spacing sufficient to convert the historic estimate into either CIMM or JORC compliant resource categories by early 2008. As of October 19, 2007, a total of 4,041 metres of drilling had been completed in 2007 in 26 drill holes. It is planned to complete 6,000 meters of drilling by the end of the year but the late arrival of additional drill rigs may cause a reduction in this number. Complete analytical results have been reported from 18 of the 26 completed drill holes to date. The results are encouraging and confirm the historic drill results yielding similar grades in similar zones of the deposit. Assay values in the intervals reported were remarkably consistent and none of the averages were unduly influenced by included, higher grade intervals. A summary of the significant drill intersections are as follows: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRILL FROM TO INTERVAL NI CU HOLE (M) (M) (M) (%) (%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-01 21 23 2 0.28 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-04 2.5 168.5 166 0.31 89.5 104.5 15 0.58 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-05 2.8 24.3 21.5 0.53 0.24 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - 6 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRILL FROM TO INTERVAL NI CU HOLE (M) (M) (M) (%) (%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-06 18.5 51.5 22 0.29 0.08 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-08 21 204.5 183.5 0.27 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-11 0.0 46.5 46.5 0.29 0.06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-12 4.6 48 43.4 0.35 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CP07-13 2.2 84.5 81.3 0.27 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The mineralized intervals reported above were all associated with disseminated sulphide mineralization (pentlandite, chalcopyrite, and pyrrhotite) within layered, medium to coarse grained peridotite and pyroxenite. The hosting stratigraphy dips variably to the south and although holes have been oriented to intersect the mineralized horizon as optimally as possible, the intervals reported below may not represent true width. Concurrent with the drilling that is planned for the remainder of 2007, the Company will be designing and implementing the necessary work that will be required to complete a scoping study on Souker in the first half of 2008. This work will include environmental baseline studies, and preliminary geotechnical and metallurgical test work. It is estimated that the company will incur expenditures of approximately US $4.0 million by the end of 2007 at Souker. ULEETA AND TSAGA NICKEL-COPPER EXPLORATION PROPERTIES The Uleeta and Tsaga Nickel-Copper properties are located in the Kola Peninsula. Centrasia views these projects as promising, early stage Nickel-Copper exploration targets. Both prospects have been covered by Soviet era aeromagnetic surveys which outlined areas of interest. Some limited historic surface sampling has been done. Extensive geochemical surveys, and geophysical surveys, consisting of ground magnetic surveys and IP/resistivity surveys have been completed during this field season. The data from the geophysical survey are now being interpreted report will and the final report will be in hand in a month. The geochemical data is incomplete at this time. Preliminary results of the surveys are encouraging and they have outlined potential areas of sulfide mineralization. Additional work on the properties will be proposed after results of this year's geochemical and geophysical surveys are completed and evaluated. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following selected financial information is derived from the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS During the three months ended August 31, 2007 (the "2007 period") the Company reported a loss of $813,045 ($0.02 per share) , compared to a loss of $339,977 ($0.02 per share) for the three months ended August 31, 2006 (the "2006 period"), an increase in loss of $473,068. The increase in loss in the 2007 period is mainly attributed to the ongoing corporate costs as a public reporting and TSXV listed company, increased staffing and exploration offices, the impact of non-cash stock-based compensation recognition and a significant increase in travel expenses. - 7 - General and administrative expenses of $844,025 were incurred during the 2007 period, an increase of $494,675, from $349,350 in the 2006 period. Specific expenses of note during the 2007 period are as follows: - the Company incurred accounting and administrative fees of $20,175 (2006 - $16,300) provided by Chase Management Ltd. ("Chase"), a private company controlled by Mr. Nick DeMare, a director of the Company; - the Company incurred legal fees of $18,252 (2006 - $1,273) for services in preparing and reviewing property and stock option agreements; - the Company incurred travel costs of $172,891 (2006 - $49,186) for review of potential property acquisitions in Central Asia, Russia and Eastern Europe and numerous Company site visits; - the Company incurred total management fees of $37,000 (2006 - $20,975) to its President, of which $34,145 (2006 - $9,936) has been recorded as management fees and $2,855 (2006 - $11,039) has been capitalized to unproven mineral interests; - office expenses increased by $24,340 from $36,613 in the 2006 period to $60,953 in the 2007 period. The increase is attributed to expenses required to maintain offices in Canada, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic and Russia; - the Company incurred corporate development expenses totalling $32,069 (2006 - $11,550) for a market awareness and promotional campaign; - the Company paid salaries of $78,302 (2006 - $47,439) for the administrative staff in the mining offices in the Kyrgyz Republic and Kazakhstan; - the Company incurred professional fees of $66,604 (2006 - $42,700) mainly for administrative services provided by consultants in the mining offices in the Kyrgyz Republic, Kazakhstan and Canada; - during the 2006 period the Company incurred property due diligence costs of $103,917 due to unsuccessful negotiations on a mineral property in Kazakhstan; and - recorded $299,876 (2006 - $nil) in non-cash stock based compensation on the vested portions of stock options previously granted. As the Company is in the exploration stage of investigating and evaluating its unproven mineral interests, it has no revenue. Interest income is generated from cash held with the Company's financial institution. During the 2007 period, the Company reported interest income of $54,392 compared to $6,628 in the 2006 period. The increase is attributed to higher levels of cash held during the 2007 period. During the 2007 period, the Company paid $6,642,344 (US$6,300,000), issued 13,207,615 common shares and long-term debt of $7,209,930 and incurred $444,305 costs associated with the RPIM Acquisition, for a total purchase price of $26,975,889. The Company also recorded $8,700,000 future income tax liabilities for timing differences related to the RPIM Acquisition. See "Company Overview", "Exploration Update" and Note 3 to the August 31, 2007, interim consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the RPIM Acquisition. FINANCIAL CONDITION / CAPITAL RESOURCES During the 2007 period, the Company received gross proceeds of $12,600,000 on the completion of a private placement for 10,500,000 units and completed the RPIM Acquisition whereby it completed the initial cash payment of US $6,000,000 and issued 12,500,000 common shares of the Company to the Vendor. In addition, the Company paid the initial finder's fee of US $300,000 and issued 625,000 common shares to DBM. The Company also issued 82,615 common shares to a company controlled by a director of the Company as a bonus for providing a loan of US $500,000 to RPI. As at August 31, 2007, the Company had working capital of $128,417. The net working capital figure includes $5,546,000 current portion of long-term debt which will be payable on or before July 24, 2008. The Company believes that it currently has sufficient financial resources to conduct anticipated exploration programs and meet anticipated corporate administration costs for the upcoming 12 month period. However, the Company will require additional financing to pay the $5,546,000 on its due date. In addition, exploration activities may change due to ongoing results and recommendations, or the Company may acquire additional properties, which may entail significant funding or exploration commitments. In the event that the occasion arises, the Company may be required to obtain additional financing. The Company has relied solely on equity financing to raise the requisite financial resources. While it has been successful in the past, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising future financing should the need arise. - 8 - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES An investment in Centrasia's common shares is highly speculative and subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Only those persons who can bear the risk of the entire loss of their investment should consider investing in Centrasia's common shares. An investor should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information filed on www.sedar.com before investing in Centrasia's common shares. The risks described below are not the only ones faced. Additional risks that Centrasia currently believes are immaterial may become important factors that affect Centrasia's business. If any of the following risks occur, or if others occur, Centrasia's business and financial condition could be seriously harmed and investors may lose all of their investment. No Known Bodies of Commercial Ore There are no known bodies of commercial ore on Centrasia's properties. The exploration programs undertaken and proposed constitute an exploratory search for ore or programs to qualify identified mineralization as ore reserves or resources. There is no assurance that Centrasia will be successful in its search for ore or in its more advanced programs. Exploration and Development Risks Exploration and development risks for the business of exploring for minerals and mining are high. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Major expenses may be required to establish ore reserves, to develop metallurgical processes and to construct mining and processing facilities at a particular site. It is impossible to ensure that exploration programs planned by Centrasia will result in a profitable commercial mining operation. Title to Properties, Political and Legal Uncertainty Although Centrasia believes it has exercised commercially reasonable due diligence with respect to determining title to properties it owns or controls, there is no guarantee that title to such mineral property interests will not be challenged or impugned. Centrasia's mineral property interests may be subject to prior unregistered interests and title may be affected by undetected defects. There may be valid challenges to the title of the mineral property interests which, if successful, could impair development and/or operations. Centrasia's mining exploration activities are affected in varying degrees by political stability and government regulations relating to foreign investment, social unrest, corporate activity and the mining business in each of the Russian Federation and the Kyrgyz Republic. Operations may also be affected in varying degrees by terrorism, military conflict or repression, crime, extreme fluctuations in currency rates and high inflation in Central Asia and the former Soviet Union. The relevant governments have entered into contracts with Centrasia or granted permits or concessions that enable it to conduct operations or development and exploration activities. Notwithstanding these arrangements, Centrasia's ability to conduct operations or exploration and development activities is subject to renewal of permits or concessions, changes in government regulations or shifts in political attitudes beyond Centrasia's control. There can be no assurance that industries deemed of national or strategic importance like mineral production will not be nationalized. Government policy may change to discourage foreign investment, re-nationalization of mining industries may occur or other government limitations, restrictions or requirements not currently foreseen may be implemented. There can be no assurance that Centrasia's assets will not be subject to nationalization, requisition or confiscation, whether legitimate or not, by any authority or body. Similarly, Centrasia's operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, environmental legislation, labour legislation, mine safety, and annual fees to maintain mineral properties in good standing. There can be no assurance that the laws in these countries protecting foreign investments will not be amended or abolished or that these existing laws will be enforced or interpreted to provide adequate protection against any or all of the risks described herein. With respect to Centrasia's Russian properties, the current legal environment in the Russian Federation is characterized by poorly-drafted and inconsistent legislation, gaps where legislation is not yet available, and uncertainty in application due to frequent policy shifts and lack of administrative experience. Russian laws often provide general statements of principles rather than specific guide to operations and government officials may be delegated or exercise broad authority to determine matters of significance to the operations and business of Centrasia. Such authority may be exercised in an unpredictable way and effective appeal processes may not be available. In addition, breaches of Russian law may - 9 - involve severe penalties and consequences regarded as disproportionate to the offence. Exploration for and extraction of minerals in the Russian Federation is governed by the Law on Subsoil, the Licensing Regulations, the Precious Metals Law and other laws. Given the fact that the legislative scheme and the regulatory bodies governing this scheme are of relatively recent origin, the law has been subject to varying interpretations and inconsistent application. Therefore, it can be difficult to determine with certainty in any given instance the exact nature of legal rights possessed by persons using the subsoil. There are uncertainties in conclusively determining all necessary information about required permits, approvals and licenses, and there is no comprehensive index or system for determining all relevant legislation. As well, the Russian legal system is a civil law system, and legal precedents are not of the same determinative nature as in a common law system. Additionally, officials often interpret regulations in an arbitrary or unpredictable way, and this extends to most areas of regulation. There can be no assurance that Centrasia has complied with all applicable laws or obtained all necessary approvals in Russia. There can be no assurance that laws, orders, rules, regulations and other Russian legislation currently relating to Centrasia's investment in the Russian Federation will not be altered, in whole or in part, or that a Russian court or other authority will not interpret existing Russian legislation, whether retroactively or otherwise, in such a way that would have an adverse impact on Centrasia. In general, there remains great uncertainty as to the extent to which Russian parties and entities, particularly governmental agencies, will be prepared to respect the contractual and other rights of the non-Russian parties with which they deal and also as to the extent to which the rule of law has taken hold and will be upheld in the Russian Federation. Procedures for the protection of rights, such as the taking of security, the enforcement of claims and proceedings for injunctive relief or to obtain damages are still relatively undeveloped in the Russian Federation. Accordingly, there may be greater difficulty and uncertainty in respect of Centrasia's abilities to protect and enforce its rights (including contractual rights). There can be no assurance that this will not have a material adverse effect upon Centrasia. Russian corporate law is not extensively developed and is still very much evolving from the former Soviet times. There are corporate law requirements of a technical nature that are not complied with by significant numbers of Russian corporations, which rarely result in action being taken by the authorities. There is a risk, however, of arbitrary action being taken against any of such Russian corporations, including Centrasia's Russian subsidiary, RPI, due to these technical irregularities, and the result of such action could be materially adverse to RPI and the Centrasia. In addition, the Souker Licence confers upon RPI the right to explore, develop and mine the Souker Deposit and the Souker Licence area. As with many Russian mineral properties affected by the transitory nature of the legal system, there are certain issues relating to the Souker Project which may adversely affect RPI's interest. RPI is taking and will continue to take all appropriate steps to protect its interest. With respect to Centrasia's properties located in the Kyrgyz Republic, this country has experienced political difficulties in recent years including a revolution in March 2005 that resulted in the ouster of the long-time incumbent President. Although the election of a new President and the appointment of a new Prime Minister have brought a measure of stability to the Kyrgyz Republic following the events of March 2005, the political situation in the country continues to evolve. There continues to be a risk of future political instability. Additional Funding Requirements Centrasia will require additional financing to continue its operations. There can be no assurance that Centrasia will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future, or that the terms of such financing will be favourable, for further exploration and development of its projects. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development and the property interests of Centrasia with the possible dilution or loss of such interests. Conflicts of Interest Certain officers and directors of Centrasia are officers and/or directors of, or are associated with or have significant shareholdings in, other natural resource companies that acquire interests in mineral properties. Such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. The directors are required by law, however, to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Centrasia and its shareholders and to disclose any personal interest which they may have in any material transaction which is proposed to be entered into with Centrasia and to abstain from voting as a director for the approval of any such transaction. - 10 - Metal Prices Metal prices may be unstable. The mining industry in general is intensely competitive and there is no assurance that, even if commercial quantities of a mineral resource are discovered, a profitable market will exist for the sale of it. Factors beyond the control of Centrasia may affect the marketability of any substances discovered. The price of various metals has experienced significant movements over short periods of time, and is affected by numerous factors beyond the control of Centrasia, including international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates and global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increased production due to improved mining and production methods. The supply of and demand for metals are affected by various factors, including political events, economic conditions and production costs in major producing regions. There can be no assurance that the price of any metal will be such that any of Centrasia's properties can be mined at a profit. Environmental and other Regulatory Requirements Centrasia's current exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing land use, the protection of the environment, prospecting, development, production, exports, taxes, labour standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, mine safety and other matters. Such exploration activities are also subject to substantial regulation under these laws by governmental agencies and may require that Centrasia obtain permits from various governmental agencies. There can be no assurance that all permits which Centrasia may require for its exploration activities or for the future construction of mining facilities and conduct of mining operations will be obtainable on reasonable terms or that such laws and regulations would not have an adverse effect on any mining project which Centrasia might undertake. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and permitting requirements may result in enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment, or remedial actions. Price Fluctuations: Share Price Volatility In recent years, the securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility and the market price of securities of many mineral exploration companies have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. There can be no assurance that fluctuations in price will not occur. Reliance upon Management The success of Centrasia depends to a large extent upon its ability to retain the services of its senior management and key personnel. The loss of their services may have a material, adverse effect on Centrasia. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements. PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS The Company has no proposed transactions. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES A detailed summary of all the Company's significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the May 31, 2007 audited consolidated financial statements. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES Effective June 1, 2007 the Company has adopted two new accounting standards related to financial instruments that were issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants. These accounting policy changes were adopted on a prospective basis with no restatement of prior period financial statements. The new standards and accounting policy changes are as follows: - 11 - Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement (Section 3855) In accordance with this new standard, the Company now classifies all financial instruments as either held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, held-for-trading, loans and receivables, or other financial liabilities. Financial assets held-to-maturity, loans and receivables and financial liabilities other than those held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost. Available-for-sale instruments are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized in other comprehensive income. Instruments classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recognized on the statement of loss. Upon adoption of this new standard, the Company has designated its cash and cash equivalents as held-for-trading, which are measured at fair value. Exploration advances and other receivables are classified as loans and receivables, which are measured at amortized cost. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities, which are measured at amortized cost. As at August 31,2007 the Company did not have any financial assets classified as available-for-sale and therefore the adoption of the standards noted above had no effect on the presentation of the Company's financial statements. Comprehensive Income (Section 1530) Comprehensive income is the change in shareholders' equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. In accordance with this new standard, the Company now reports a statement of comprehensive income and a new category, accumulated other comprehensive income, in the shareholders' equity section of the balance sheet. The components of this new category will include unrealized gains and losses on financial assets classified as available-for-sale. The Company will be required to adopt the new accounting procedures, CICA Handbook Sections 1530, 3251 and 1506, for its fiscal period beginning June 1, 2007. The new pronouncements are included in Note 2 to the May 31, 2007 audited consolidated financial statements. The adoption of the new pronouncements are not expected to have an effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (a) During the three months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company incurred fees to its directors and officers or corporations controlled by its directors or officers, as follows: 2007 2006 $ $ Management fees 37,000 20,975 Legal 83,278 7,000 Accounting and administrative 20,175 16,300 Professional fees 42,492 43,135 ----------- ----------- 182,945 87,410 =========== =========== The above fees have either been expensed to operations or capitalized to unproven mineral interests, deferred amounts or share issue costs, based on the nature of the expenditure. As at August 31, 2007, $88,063 (2006 - $32,889) remained outstanding and was included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. These transactions are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties. (b) During the three months ended August 31, 2007, the Company issued 82,615 common shares, at a fair value of $79,310, to a private company controlled by a director of the Company, as a bonus for providing a US $500,000 loan to RPI prior to the closing of the RPIM Acquisition. The Company subsequently repaid the loan. - 12 - (c) On August 17, 2007, the Company and Kantanna entered into an amending agreement on the Bulakashu Gold Property, pursuant to which the Company issued 375,000 common shares, at a fair value of $405,000, to Kantanna for the remaining 62.5% interest the Company did not own. INVESTOR RELATIONS ACTIVITIES The Company maintains a website at www.centrasiamining.com and updates it on a continuous basis. Effective February 8, 2006, the Company retained Accent Marketing Ltd. ("Accent") as its European investor relations representative. Accent's sole remuneration is a stock option granted by the Company to purchase up to 200,000 common shares at $1.15 per share for a period of five years. Effective September 20, 2006, the Company retained Mr. David Matousek as a corporate advisor for a monthly fee of $3,000. During the 2007 period the Company paid a total of $9,000. The agreement was terminated on august 31, 2007. Effective September 1, 2007, the Company retained CP Capital Group Ltd. as an investor relations representative for a monthly fee of $5,000. The agreement may be terminated by either party on 30 days notice. OUTSTANDING SHARE DATA The Company's authorized share capital is unlimited common shares without par value. As at October 26, 2007, there were 53,787,457 issued and outstanding common shares, 3,200,000 stock options outstanding at exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $1.15 per share and 7,948,750 warrants outstanding at exercise prices ranging from $0.75 to $1.70 per share. In addition, the Company has granted, subject to shareholder approval, an additional 3,480,000 stock options, at prices ranging from $0.73 to $1.71 per share. DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information is gathered and reported to senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to permit timely decisions regarding public disclosure. Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Multilateral Instrument 52-109 - Certification of Disclosure in Issuer's Annual and Interim Filings ("52-109"), are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted under Canadian Securities legislation are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in those rules. In conducting the evaluation it has become apparent that management relies upon certain informal procedures and communication, and upon "hands-on" knowledge of senior management. Management intends to formalize certain of its procedures. Due to the small staff, however, the Company will continue to rely on an active Board and management with open lines of communication to maintain the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Lapses in the disclosure controls and procedures could occur and/or mistakes could happen. Should such occur, the Company will take whatever steps necessary to minimize the consequences thereof. INTERNAL CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Management is also responsible for the design of the Company's internal control over financial reporting in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. During the process of management's review and evaluation of the design of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, it was determined that certain weaknesses existed in internal controls over financial reporting. As is indicative of many small companies, the lack of segregation of duties and effective risk assessment were identified as areas where weaknesses existed. The existence of these weaknesses is to be compensated for by senior management monitoring which exists. The Company is taking steps to augment and improve the design of procedure and controls impacting these areas of weakness over internal control over financial reporting. It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can only provide reasonable assurance, not absolute assurance, that the objectives of the control system are met. - 13 - FORM 52-109F2 CERTIFICATION OF INTERIM FILINGS I, Douglas Turnbull, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Centrasia Mining Corp., certify that: 1.
