Khan Resources Inc. (CNSX:KRI) ("Khan" or "the Company") announced today that it
has filed its financial statements and management discussion and analysis for
the six months ended March 31, 2013 on SEDAR and has posted these documents to
its website www.khanresources.com.
Highlights for the quarter include:
-- International arbitration action against the Government of Mongolia -
Submissions on the merits and damages arising from the Mongolian
Government's expropriatory and unlawful treatment of Khan were filed by
the Company on December 7, 2012. With that filing, Khan's claim has been
revised upwards from $200 to $326 million. The December 7, 2012
submissions were pursuant to the Tribunal's ruling on July 26, 2012
which dismissed all of Mongolia's objections to the continuance of the
suit. A Statement of Defense and Counterclaim by the Respondents was
submitted to the Tribunal on April 5, 2013. Additional submissions by
both the Claimants and Respondents will be submitted in the summer and
fall of 2013. The formal hearing by the Tribunal on the merits and
damages for the case is scheduled for November 11 through November 15,
2013.
-- Atomredmetzoloto ("ARMZ") litigation - On April 2, 2013 the Court of
Appeal for Ontario dismissed Khan's appeal to validate, substitute or
dispense with service of Khan's Statement of Claim. ARMZ had avoided
service of the Statement of Claim as the Russian Ministry of Justice had
invoked Section 13 of the Hague Convention which allowed Russia to
refuse to serve ARMZ as a matter of Russian sovereignty or security.
Khan is reviewing the decision and is considering the options available
to it. The next stage of appeal would be the Supreme Court of Canada.
-- Khan holds 15.5 million common shares of Macusani Yellowcake Inc.
("Macusani") which represents 9.7% of the 159.5 million Macusani
outstanding common shares. The value of the Company's investment in
Macusani as at March 31, 2013 was $1,708,000, a decrease of $466,000
from its value at September 30, 2012.
-- The following table summarizes financial results of the Company for the
three and six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
