      KINROSS PROVIDES STATUS UPDATE ON LATE FILING OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


JANUARY 6, 2006... 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 a notice to
the market regarding a restatement of its prior financial statements and an
update on 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.

Kinross previously disclosed that financial statements for 2003 and 2004 will
need to be restated due to the non-cash impact of foreign exchange rates on
future tax liabilities relating to the purchase of certain assets acquired in
the acquisition of TVX Gold and Echo Bay in January 2003. Kinross is currently
working to finalize and file its quarterly financial statements for 2005 and
other required regulatory filings in order to bring the Company current. This
will be done when the restated 2003 and 2004 financial statements are completed
which at this time the Company believes will be in January 2006.

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
January 16th, 2006.
