of historical fact, contained in this news release, including any information as to the future financial or operating
performance  of  Kinross,  constitute  "forward-looking  information"  or  "forward-looking  statements"  within  the
meaning  of  certain securities  laws,  including  the  provisions  of  the  Securities  Act  (Ontario)  and  the  "safe
harbor"  provisions  under  the  United  States  Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are based on the
expectations, estimates and projections of management as of the date of this news release unless otherwise stated.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable
by Kinross as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive
uncertainties and contingencies. The estimates and assumptions of Kinross contained in this news release, which may prove to
be incorrect, include, but are not limited to: (i) the various assumptions set forth herein; (ii) that Kinross will complete
the sale of its interests in Cerro Casale and Quebrada Seca in accordance with, and on the timeline contemplated by, the
terms and conditions of the relevant agreements, on a basis consistent with our current expectations; (iii) that any
contingent payment contemplated by the purchase agreements governing the sale or the royalty will be paid to Kinross, (iv)
that a construction decision will be made by the Cerro Casale joint venture; (v) that the conditions will be met under the
water supply agreement to allow Kinross to exercise its rights to access water thereunder; and (vi) that Kinross will use the
proceeds from the sale as described herein. The forward-looking information set forth in this news release is subject to
various risks and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the
forward-looking information, including the risk that the sale transaction will not be completed for any reason. Certain of
these risks, factors, estimates and assumptions are described in more detail in Kinross' most recently  filed  Annual
Information  Form  in  the  section  entitled  "Risk  Factors"  and  the  "Risk  Analysis"  section  of  our  most recently
filed Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis,  to  which  readers  are  referred  and  which  are  incorporated  by
reference  in  this  news  release.  In addition, all forward-looking statements made in this news release are qualified by
the full "Cautionary Statement" in such Annual Information Form and the "Cautionary Statement on Forward Looking Information"
in such Management's Discussion and Analysis. These risks, factors, estimates and assumptions are not exhaustive.  Kinross
disclaims  any  intention  or  obligation  to  update  or  revise  any  forward-looking statements whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, or to explain any material difference between subsequent actual events and such
forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law.</I></P>
