China Gold International announces Jiama Mine expansion update and revises 2015 copper production guidance

China Gold International Resources Corp. Ltd. (TSX: CGG; HKEx: 2099) (the "Company" or "China Gold International Resources") provides an update on the expansion of the Jiama Copper-Gold Polymetallic Mine (the "Jiama Mine" or "Jiama") and revises its 2015 copper production guidance.

The original schedule of commissioning Stage One of Phase II expansion at the Jiama Mine by the fourth quarter of 2015 was deferred due to the defects detected during the loaded test run that may not be fully eliminated by the end of 2015. As a result, the Company revises its 2015 copper production guidance to 37.5 million pounds, a 21% increase from the 2014 actual copper output of 31 million pounds. The Company aims to restart the commissioning of Stage One in the second half of 2016. The construction of Stage Two is under way and is expected to be completed in the second half of 2016.
