The Company 
AngloTajik Minerals, Inc. (OTCBB: AJKM) is a mineral exploration and
development company with interests in several mineral exploration
properties within the Republic of Tajikistan. The company initially was
interested in exploring the Pamirs in the Southeast area of Tajikistan,
with commercially attractive deposits.
Tajikistan currently mines 3.7 tonnes of gold per year with an estimated
current value of $50 million. Recent estimates by Tajikistan government
authorities put production at 10-20 tonnes per year with the right level
of investment. The country currently has 28 gold fields with known
estimated reserves of 430 tonnes
To date, the company has met with Tajikistan officials and reviewed the
requisite documents, including a 400 plus page Soviet report including
maps and key target areas. The company has also obtained Government
approval to proceed with its preliminary exploration of the targeted
deposits and is currently evaluating Soviet estimates.
in Tajikistan, bringing the country's Gold production up to approximately
3 tonnes per year.
Ikar Deposit (60 sq. km, Gold/Tungsten)
The Ikar deposit is situated 58 kilometers north of the regional centre of
Khorog in southeastern Tajikistan. On surface 8 mineralized segments have
been identified along a trend which extends for approximately 1 kilometer.
Diamond drilling has been completed from surface (5 holes, 1,515 meters)
and underground (17 horizontal holes, 2,737 meters, and 12 holes angled
down, 2,978 meters) totaling 7,230 meters. 
Huff Deposit (gold, tungsten, copper)
The Huff area is located between 5 and 7 km north of Ikar. Several mineral
occurrences are named within an area of approximately 2km x 2km. Shear
zones contain quartz - carbonate - chalcopyrite - magnetite - pyrite
veins. Gold, tungsten, and copper values are reported in widths to 1.5
meters.



Barch Deposit (iron)
The Barch magnetite - hematite-pyrite iron deposit is situated within the
Huff area. Soviet data indicate an iron content of 52%. Dimensions of the
occurrence are 1,800 meters of length, between 25 - 120 meters wide, and a
dip angle of 35º - 55º. The relative proportion of iron minerals is not
known at this time. Chalcopyrite is noted as an accessory mineral. 
Akjilga Rudokop Deposit
The property is located 258 km east of Khorog and 96 km southwest of the
village of Murgab. At least 28 occurrences of silver - bearing quartz -
carbonate veins are documented within a 3 km square area. Faults and
fissures within granite are the host structures. Modern Soviet exploration
included surface trenching, diamond drilling and excavation of twelve or
more adits on veins. Reported grades of silver range between several
grams/tonne and 22,790 grams/tonne.
Exploration Strategy
The company's exploration platform is founded on three main principles: 
•	To identify geological areas in Tajikistan which, through previous
survey and analysis by the former Soviet government indicate
high-yield/low risk mineral deposits. 
•	To obtain Government approvals and independent analysis of available
documents to ascertain the accuracy of original surveys and preliminary
explorations. 
•	To identify key target areas and reenter those deposits in order to
re-evaluate the Soviet estimates in accordance with western minerals'
measurement methods. 
The Future
AngloTajik Minerals, Inc. is well positioned to capitalize on the highly
liquid market for Gold and other precious and non-precious (industrial)
metals. The Rushan gold/tungsten potential is extremely attractive with a
97% recovery rate. Further exploration of the properties should fuel
AngloTajik's near- and long-term growth. AngloTajik offers the early
investor a substantial opportunity for upside appreciation. The company is
making tremendous strides towards building shareholder value. AJKM is
undervalued and poised for explosive growth.
