                                                                   PRESS RELEASE


          PROVIDES STATUS UPDATE ON LATE FILING OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


SEPTEMBER 16, 2005... TORONTO, ONTARIO - KINROSS GOLD CORPORATION ("KINROSS" OR
THE "COMPANY") (TSX-K; NYSE-KGC)

Pursuant to the alternative information guidelines of the Ontario Securities
Commission ("OSC") Policy 57-603 and Canadian Securities Administrators Staff
Notice 57-301, Kinross is providing bi-weekly updates to the market regarding
the process relating to the preparation and filing of its financial statements
and related matters, until such time as Kinross is current with its filing
obligations under Canadian securities laws.

As previously disclosed, Kinross has not yet filed its financial statements as a
result of the review of the accounting treatment for the goodwill associated
with the TVX Gold/Echo Bay merger. Kinross staff and advisory team are working
with regulatory authorities to finalize our accounting for the merger and the
related goodwill. There has been no other new material development since its
last press release dated September 2, 2005.

Upon completion of this review process and the related audits the Company will
complete its regulatory filings. We are issuing bi-weekly updates as to the
status and timing which can be viewed on our website at www.kinross.com. The
next update is scheduled for the week of October 3, 2005.

THIS PRESS RELEASE INCLUDES CERTAIN "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS" WITHIN THE
MEANING OF SECTION 21E OF THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS
AMENDED. ALL STATEMENTS, OTHER THAN STATEMENTS OF HISTORICAL FACT, INCLUDED
HEREIN, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, STATEMENTS REGARDING THE KINROSS'
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR ITS FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004, POTENTIAL
MINERALIZATION AND RESERVES, EXPLORATION RESULTS AND FUTURE PLANS AND OBJECTIVES
OF KINROSS GOLD CORPORATION, ARE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE VARIOUS
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT SUCH STATEMENTS WILL
PROVE TO BE ACCURATE AND ACTUAL RESULTS AND FUTURE EVENTS COULD DIFFER
MATERIALLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED IN SUCH STATEMENTS. ANY RESTATEMENT OF
HISTORICAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IS DEPENDANT ON THE OUTCOME OF THE INDEPENDENT
VALUATION OF THE ACQUIRED ASSETS, AND KINROSS DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THAT OUTCOME
WILL BE. OTHER IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER
MATERIALLY FROM KINROSS' EXPECTATIONS ARE DISCLOSED UNDER THE HEADING "RISK
FACTORS" AND ELSEWHERE IN KINROSS' DOCUMENTS FILED FROM TIME TO TIME WITH THE
TORONTO STOCK EXCHANGE, THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION AND
OTHER REGULATORY AUTHORITIES.
