VANCOUVER,

"These three certifications validate CGG's
commitment to quality, safety, and the environment," said Mr.

CGG team has successfully managed the audits, consultation,
training and detailed improvements needed to build a quality
management system which meet the high international standards
required to obtain these certifications. This achievement, on
behalf of the Company, is reassuring to our shareholders and
employees and gives us a benchmark from which to continuously make
improvements.
The company began working towards the ISO 9001,
ISO14001, and OHSAS18001 certifications in October 2011. In September
2012, the Beijing Zhongshui
Brilliant Certification Co. Ltd and Guardian Independent
Certification Ltd. completed a joint inspection in the Company's
headquarters in Beijing, along
with the CSH gold mine site and Jiama copper-polymetallic mine
site. By October 31, 2012, the
Company addressed all the issues identified by the third party
consultants and successfully passed the domestic and international
certifications.
Mr. Xin Song
said, "China Gold International's management team along with
China National Gold's Operating
Management Department and Environment Protection and Safety
Department provided strong support and guidance throughout the
certification process. Subsidiaries of the Company, Inner Mongolia
Pacific Mining Co. Ltd. and Huatailong Mining Limited, which own
and operate the CSH Mine and Jiama mine respectively, were also
actively involved in the process. The speed with which the Company
developed and certified this high quality management system
reflects the efficiency of the Company's employees and
management."
The Company will conduct an annual internal and
external review with the commitment to continuously improve its
management system and internal control mechanisms.
