The Company currently holds eight exploration licenses in three European countries,
including five in Portugal covering 2,911 km 2, two in Kosovo covering 47 km 2, and one
in Germany covering 307 km 2. Avrupa now has three active option and joint venture
agreements, two in Portugal and one in Kosovo, including:
The Alvito Option Agreement with OZ Minerals Limited covering one license in
the Ossa Morena Zone in southern Portugal, for IOCG deposits;
The Covas JV , with Blackheath Resources, covering one license in northern
Portugal, for intrusion-related W deposits; and

Peshter Mining JSC. If AVU ownership goes below 10%, the interest in the
project converts to a 2% NSR.

Alvalade Project, now 100% owned by Avrupa, where previous partners have
spent over US$ 7.6 million on exploration for VMS copper, zinc, and lead,
