Andesite: an extrusive igneous rock of intermediate composition with a fine grained to porphyritic texture. Argillic Alteration: hydrothermal alteration of rock which introduces clay minerals including kaolinite, smectite and illite. Assay: a quantitative chemical analysis of an ore, mineral or concentrate to determine the amount of specific elements. Breccia: a coarse-grained clastic rock composed of broken rock fragments held together by a mineral cement or in a fine- grained matrix. Carbonate: a sedimentary rock made mainly of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Dacite: an extrusive igneous rock with a fine grained to porphyritic texture and intermediate in composition between andesite and rhyolite. Diorite: a grey to dark-grey intermediate intrusive igneous rock composed principally of plagioclase feldspar, biotite, hornblende, and/or pyroxene. Dike: a tabular igneous intrusion that cuts across the country rock, generally vertical in nature. Doré: a mixture of predominantly gold and silver produced by a mine, usually in a bar form, before separation and refining into gold and silver by a refinery. Epithermal: said of a hydrothermal mineral deposit formed within about 1 kilometer of the Earth’s surface and in the temperature range of 50oC to 200oC. Feasibility Study: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as a comprehensive technical and economic study of the selected development option for a mineral project that includes appropriately detailed assessments of applicable Modifying Factors together with any other relevant operational factors and detailed financial analysis that are necessary to demonstrate, at the time of reporting, that extraction is reasonably justified (economically mineable). The results of the study may reasonably serve as the basis for a final decision by a proponent or financial institution to proceed with, or finance, the development of the project. The confidence level of the study will be higher than that of a Pre-Feasibility Study. Foliation: repetitive layering in metamorphic rocks. Footwall: the underlying side of a fault, ore body, or mine working; particularly the wall rock beneath an inclined vein or fault. Formation: a persistent body of igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic rock, having easily recognizable boundaries that can be traced in the field without recourse to detailed paleontologic or petrologic analysis, and large enough to be represented on a geologic map as a practical or convenient unit for mapping and description. Gneiss: a type of rock formed by high-grade regional metamorphic processes from pre-existing formations of igneous or sedimentary rocks. Granodiorite: a group of plutonic rocks intermediate in composition between quartz diorite and quartz monzonite. Greenfields: conceptual exploration; relying on the predictive power of ore genesis models to search for mineralization in relatively unexplored ground. Hanging wall: the overlying side of an ore body, fault, or mine working, especially the wall rock above an inclined vein or fault. 4 Hornfels: a fine-grained rock composed of a mosaic of equidimensional grains without preferred orientation and typically formed by contact metamorphism. Hydrothermal: of or pertaining to hot water, to the action of hot water, or to the products of this action, such as a mineral deposit precipitated from a hot aqueous solution, with or without demonstrable association with igneous processes. Igneous rock: rock that is magmatic in origin. Indicated mineral resource: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape and physical characteristics are estimated with sufficient confidence to allow the application of Modifying Factors in sufficient detail to support mine planning and evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. Geological evidence is derived from adequately detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing and is sufficient to assume geological and grade or quality continuity between points of observation. An Indicated Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to a Measured Mineral Resource and may only be converted to a Probable Mineral Reserve. Inferred mineral resource: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence and sampling. Geological evidence is sufficient to imply but not verify geological and grade or quality continuity. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration. Intercalated: said of layered material that exists or is introduced between layers of a different character; especially said of relatively thin strata of one kind of material that alternates with thicker strata of some other kind, such as beds of shale intercalated in a body of sandstone. Jasperoid: a dense chert-like siliceous rock, in which chalcedony or cryptocrystalline quartz has replaced the carbonate materials of limestone or dolomite. Kriging: a weighted, moving-average interpolation method in which the set of weights assigned to samples minimizes the estimation variance, which is computed as a function of the variogram model and locations of the samples relative to each other, and to the point or block being estimated. Leach: to dissolve minerals or metals out of ore with chemicals. Limestone: a sedimentary rock consisting predominantly of calcium carbonate. Lithocap: the shallow part of porphyry copper systems typically above the main Cu-Au/-Mo zone; upper alteration zone. Measured mineral resource: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity, grade or quality, densities, shape, and physical characteristics are estimated with confidence sufficient to allow the application of Modifying Factors to support detailed mine planning and final evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. Geological evidence is derived from detailed and reliable exploration, sampling and testing and is sufficient to confirm geological and grade or quality continuity between points of observation. A Measured Mineral Resource has a higher level of confidence than that applying to either an Indicated Mineral Resource or an Inferred Mineral Resource. It may be converted to a Proven Mineral Reserve or to a Probable Mineral Reserve. Meta: a prefix that, when used with the name of a sedimentary or igneous rock, indicates that the rock has been metamorphosed. Metamorphic rock: rock which has been changed from igneous or sedimentary rock through heat and pressure into a new form of rock. Mineral Reserve: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as the economically mineable part of a Measured and/or Indicated Mineral Resource. It includes diluting materials and allowances for losses, which may occur when the material is mined or extracted and is defined by studies at Pre-Feasibility or Feasibility level as appropriate that include application of Modifying Factors. Such studies demonstrate that, at the time of reporting, extraction could reasonably be justified. The reference point at which Mineral Reserves are defined, usually the point where the ore is delivered to the processing plant, must be stated. It is important that, in all situations where the reference point is different, 5 such as for a saleable product, a clarifying statement is included to ensure that the reader is fully informed as to what is being reported. The public disclosure of a Mineral Reserve must be demonstrated by a Pre-Feasibility Study or Feasibility Study. Mineral Resource: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as a concentration or occurrence of solid material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust in such form, grade or quality and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade or quality, continuity and other geological characteristics of a Mineral Resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and knowledge, including sampling. Modifying factors: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as the considerations used to convert Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves. These include, but are not restricted to, mining, processing, metallurgical, infrastructure, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social and governmental factors. Net smelter return royalty or NSR royalty: a type of royalty based on a percentage of the proceeds, net of smelting, refining and transportation costs and penalties, from the sale of metals extracted from concentrate and doré by the smelter or refinery. NI 43-101: National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators. Oxide: a compound of ore that has been subjected to weathering and alteration as a result of exposure to oxygen for a long period of time. Pegmatite: a very coarse-grained igneous rock that has a grain size of 20 millimetres or more. Phyllite: a regional metamorphic rock, intermediate in grade between slate and schist. Minute crystals of sericite and chlorite impart a silky sheen to the surfaces exposed by cleavage. Plagioclase: a series of tectosilicate minerals within the feldspar family. Plutonic: intrusive igneous rock that is crystallized from magma slowly cooling below the surface of the Earth. Porphyry: igneous rock consisting of large-grained crystals dispersed in a fine-grained matrix or groundmass. Pre-Feasibility Study: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as a comprehensive study of a range of options for the technical and economic viability of a mineral project that has advanced to a stage where a preferred mining method, in the case of underground mining, or the pit configuration, in the case of an open pit, is established and an effective method of mineral processing is determined. It includes a financial analysis based on reasonable assumptions on the Modifying Factors and the evaluation of any other relevant factors which are sufficient for a Qualified Person, acting reasonably, to determine if all or part of the Mineral Resource may be converted to a Mineral Reserve at the time of reporting. A Pre-Feasibility Study is at a lower confidence level than a Feasibility Study. Preliminary Economic Assessment: is defined in NI 43-101 and NI 43-101CP as a study, other than a pre-feasibility or feasibility study that includes an economic analysis of the potential viability of mineral resources. The term preliminary economic assessment can include a study commonly referred to as a scoping study. A preliminary economic assessment might be based on measured, indicated, or inferred mineral resources, or a combination of any of these. These types of economic analyses include disclosure of forecast mine production rates that might contain capital costs to develop and sustain the mining operation, operating costs, and projected cash flows. Probable mineral reserve: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as the economically mineable part of an Indicated, and in some circumstances, a Measured Mineral Resource. The confidence in the Modifying Factors applying to a Probable Mineral Reserve is lower than that applying to a Proven Mineral Reserve. The Qualified Person(s) may elect to convert Measured Mineral Resources to Probable Mineral Reserves if the confidence in the Modifying Factors is lower than that applied to a Proven Mineral Reserve. Proven mineral reserve: is defined in the CIM Definition Standards (2014) as referenced by NI 43-101 as the economically mineable part of a Measured Mineral Resource. A Proven Mineral Reserve implies a high degree of confidence in the Modifying Factors. Application of the Proven Mineral Reserve category implies that the Qualified Person has the highest degree of confidence in the estimate with the consequent expectation in the minds of the readers of the report. The term should be restricted to that part of the deposit where production planning is taking place and for which any variation in the estimate would not significantly affect the potential economic viability of the deposit. Proven Mineral Reserve estimates must be demonstrated to be economic, at the time of reporting, by at least a Pre-Feasibility Study. 6 Pyroclastic: pertaining to clastic rock material formed by volcanic explosion or aerial expulsion from a volcanic vent; also, pertaining to rock texture of explosive origin. Qualified Person: is defined in NI 43-101 as an individual who (a) is an engineer or geoscientist with a university degree, or equivalent accreditation, in an area of geoscience, or engineering, relating to mineral exploration or mining; (b) has at least five years of experience in mineral exploration, mine development or operation or mineral project assessment, or any combination of these, that is relevant to his or her professional degree or area of practice; (c) has experience relevant to the subject matter of the mineral project and the technical report; (d) is in good standing with a professional association; and (e) in the case of a professional association in a foreign jurisdiction, has a membership designation that (i) requires attainment of a position of responsibility in their profession that requires the exercise of independent judgment; and (ii) requires A. a favourable confidential peer evaluation of the individual’s character, professional judgement, experience, and ethical fitness; or B. a recommendation for membership by at least two peers, and demonstrated prominence or expertise in the field of mineral exploration or mining; Run-of-mine: ore in its natural state as it is removed from the mine that has not been subjected to additional size reduction. Schist: a strongly foliated crystalline rock, which readily splits into sheets or slabs as a result of the planar alignment of the constituent crystals. The constituent minerals are commonly specified (e.g. “quartz-muscovite-chlorite schist”). Shear zone: a tabular zone of rock that has been crushed and brecciated by parallel fractures due to “shearing” along a fault or zone of weakness. These can be mineralized with ore-forming solutions. Silicification: the introduction of, or replacement by, silica, generally resulting in the formation of fine-grained quartz, chalcedony, or opal, which may fill pores and replace existing minerals. Skarn: metamorphic zone developed in the contact area around igneous rock intrusions when carbonate sedimentary rocks are invaded by large amounts of silicon, aluminum, iron, and magnesium. Spectrography: the process of using a spectrograph to map or photograph a spectrum. Stockwork: a complex system of structurally controlled or randomly oriented veins. Strata: layers of sedimentary rock with internally consistent characteristics that distinguish them from other layers. Strike: the direction, or course or bearing of a vein or rock formation measured on a level surface. Stratibound: confined to a particular stratigraphic layer or unit. Stratiform: occurring as or arranged in strata. Strip (or stripping) ratio: the tonnage or volume of waste material that must be removed to allow the mining of one tonne of ore in an open pit. Sulfides or sulphides: compounds of sulfur (or sulphur) with other metallic elements. Tailing: material rejected from a mill after the recoverable valuable minerals have been extracted. Terrane: a rock formation or assemblage of rock formations that share a common geologic history. Tuff: a general term for consolidated pyroclastic rocks. Vein: sheet-like body of minerals formed by fracture filling or replacement of host rock. Vuggy: containing small cavities in a rock or vein, often with a mineral lining of different composition from that of the surrounding rock. 7 Linear Measurements 1 inch 1 foot 1 yard 1 mile Area Measurements 1 acre 1 hectare 1 square mile Units of Weight 1 short ton 1 long ton 1 metric tonne 1 pound (16 oz.) 1 troy oz. 1 troy oz. per short ton Analytical 1% 1 gram/tonne 1 troy oz./short ton 10 ppb 100 ppm = = = = = = = = = = = = = 2.54 centimeters 0.3048 meter 0.9144 meter 1.609 kilometers 0.4047 hectare 2.471 acres 640 acres or 259 hectares or 2.59 square kilometers 2000 pounds or 0.893 long ton 2240 pounds or 1.12 short tons 2204.62 pounds or 1.1023 short tons 0.454 kilograms or 14.5833 troy ounces 31.1035 grams 34.2857 grams per metric tonne percent 1% 0.0001% 0.003429% nil 0.01 grams per metric tonne troy oz per short ton 10,000 1 34.2857 0.01 100 291.667 0.029167 1 0.00029 2.917 Temperature Conversion Formulas Degrees Fahrenheit Degrees Celsius = = (°C x 1.8) + 32 (°F - 32) x 0.556 8 Frequently Used Abbreviations and Symbols AA Ag As Au °C CIM cm C.P.G.

(the “Company” or “Eurasian” or “EMX”) was incorporated under the laws of the Yukon Territory of Canada on August 21, 2001 as 33544 Yukon Inc. and, on October 10, 2001, changed its name to Southern European Exploration Ltd. On November 24, 2003, the Company completed the reverse take-over of Marchwell Capital Corp., a TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) listed company incorporated in Alberta on May 13, 1996 and which subsequently changed its name to Eurasian Minerals Inc. On September 21, 2004, EMX continued into British Columbia from Alberta under the Business Corporations Act. EMX’s head office is located at Suite 501 – 543 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 1X8, Canada, and its registered and records office is located at Northwest Law Group, Suite 704 – 595 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6C 2T5, Canada. Eurasian is a reporting company under the securities legislation of British Columbia and Alberta and is listed on the TSX-V, as a Tier 1 Company, and the NYSE MKT LLC (“NYSE MKT”). Eurasian’s common shares without par value (“Common Shares”) are traded on the TSX-V and the NYSE MKT under the symbol “EMX”. BUSINESS OF EURASIAN MINERALS INC. Eurasian is principally in the business of exploring for, and generating royalties from, metals and minerals properties, as well as identifying royalty opportunities for purchase. Eurasian’s business is carried out as a royalty and prospect generator. Under the royalty and prospect generation business model, it acquires and advances early-stage mineral exploration projects and then options the projects to, and thereby forms relationships with, other parties in consideration of a retained royalty interest, as well as annual advanced royalty and other cash or share payments and exploration carried out by the other parties. Through its various agreements, Eurasian also provides technical and commercial assistance to such companies as the projects advance. By optioning interests in its projects to third parties for a royalty interest, Eurasian: (a) reduces its exposure to the costs and risks associated with mineral exploration and project development, (b) maintains the opportunity to participate in early-stage exploration upside, and (c) develops a pipeline for potential production royalty payments and associated greenfields discoveries in the future. This approach helps preserve the Company’s treasury, which can be utilized for further project acquisitions and other business initiatives. The Company’s royalty and exploration portfolio consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Haiti, Australia, and New Zealand. Eurasian started receiving royalty income as of August 17, 2012 when it acquired Bullion Monarch Mining, Inc. (“Bullion Monarch” or “BULM”). This royalty cash flow serves to provide a foundation to support the Company’s growth over the long term. Strategic investments are an important complement to the Company’s royalty and prospect generation initiatives. These investments are made in unrecognized or under-valued exploration companies identified by Eurasian. EMX helps to develop the value of these assets, with exit strategies that can include royalty positions or equity sales. FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION In this Annual Report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian Dollars (“CDN$” or “$”). References to “US$” are to United States dollars. The Government of Canada permits a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS The Company is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act and Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Equity securities of the Company are accordingly exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), 14(f) and 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12-3 thereunder. 11 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Annual Report, including the documents incorporated by reference herein, may contain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may include statements regarding perceived merit of properties, exploration results and budgets, mineral reserves and resource estimates, work programs, capital expenditures, operating costs, cash flow estimates, production estimates and similar statements relating to the economic viability of a project, timelines, strategic plans, completion of transactions, market prices for metals or other statements that are not statements of fact. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Statements concerning mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute “forward-looking statements” to the extent that they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, identified by words or phrases such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “plans”, “projects”, “estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives”, “potential”, “possible” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events, conditions or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of material assumptions, including those listed below, which could prove to be significantly incorrect:         the Company’s ability to achieve production at any of its mineral properties; estimated capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns; estimated metal pricing, metallurgy, mineability, marketability and operating and capital costs, together with other assumptions underlying the Company’s resource and reserve estimates; the Company’s expected ability to develop adequate infrastructure at a reasonable cost; assumptions that all necessary permits and governmental approvals will be obtained; assumptions made in the interpretation of drill results, the geology, grade and continuity of the Company’s mineral deposits; the Company’s expectations regarding demand for equipment, skilled labor and services needed for exploration and development of mineral properties; and the Company’s activities will not be adversely disrupted or impeded by development, operating or regulatory risks. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation:            uncertainty of whether there will ever be production at the Company’s mineral exploration and development properties; uncertainty of estimates of capital costs, operating costs, production and economic returns; uncertainties relating to the assumptions underlying the Company’s resource and reserve estimates, such as metal pricing, metallurgy, mineability, marketability and operating and capital costs; risks related to the Company’s ability to commence production and generate material revenues or obtain adequate financing for its planned exploration and development activities; risks related to the Company’s ability to finance the development of its mineral properties through external financing, joint ventures or other strategic alliances, the sale of property interests or otherwise; risks related to the third parties on which the Company depends for its exploration and development activities; dependence on cooperation of joint venture partners in exploration and development of properties; credit, liquidity, interest rate and currency risks; risks related to market events and general economic conditions; uncertainty related to inferred mineral resources; risks and uncertainties relating to the interpretation of drill results, the geology, grade and continuity of the Company’s mineral deposits; risks related to lack of adequate infrastructure;   mining and development risks, including risks related to infrastructure, accidents, equipment breakdowns, labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties with or interruptions in development, construction or production; the risk that permits and governmental approvals necessary to develop and operate mines on the Company’s properties will not be available on a timely basis or at all; commodity price fluctuations;   12                    risks related to governmental regulation and permits, including environmental regulation; risks related to the need for reclamation activities on the Company’s properties and uncertainty of cost estimates related thereto; uncertainty related to title to the Company’s mineral properties; uncertainty as to the outcome of potential litigation; risks related to increases in demand for equipment, skilled labor and services needed for exploration and development of mineral properties, and related cost increases; increased competition in the mining industry; the Company’s need to attract and retain qualified management and technical personnel; risks related to hedging arrangements or the lack thereof; uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to acquire additional commercially mineable mineral rights; risks related to the integration of potential new acquisitions into the Company’s existing operations; risks related to unknown liabilities in connection with acquisitions; risks related to conflicts of interest of some of the directors of the Company; risks related to global climate change; risks related to adverse publicity from non-governmental organizations; risks related to political uncertainty or instability in countries where the Company’s mineral properties are located; uncertainty as to the Company’s passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) status; uncertainty as to the Company’s status as a “foreign private issuer” and “emerging growth company” in future years; uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to maintain the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting; and risks related to regulatory and legal compliance and increased costs relating thereto. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, without limitation, those referred to under the heading “Key Information” (as defined below), which is incorporated by reference herein. The Company’s forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date of this Annual Report, and the Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management’s beliefs, expectations or opinions should change, except as required by law. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. 13 CAUTIONARY NOTE TO UNITED STATES INVESTORS REGARDING RESERVE AND RESOURCE INFORMATION Unless otherwise indicated, all resource estimates, and any future reserve estimates, included or incorporated by reference in this annual report on Form 10-K have been, and will be, prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (“CIM Definition Standards”). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and reserve and resource information contained or incorporated by reference into this annual report on Form 20-F may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserves”. Under SEC Industry Guide 7, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. SEC Industry Guide 7 does not define and the SEC’s disclosure standards normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” or “inferred mineral resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by U.S. standards in documents filed with the SEC. U.S. investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the SEC, and any reserves reported by us in the future in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as “reserves” under SEC standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable to information made public by companies that report in accordance with United States standards. 14 PART I ITEM 1.

Capitalization and Indebtedness --- No Disclosure Necessary --- 3.C. Reasons For The Offer And Use Of Proceeds --- No Disclosure Necessary --- 3.D. Risk Factors Investment in the Common Shares involves a significant degree of risk and should be considered speculative due to the nature of Eurasian’s business and the present stage of its development. Prospective investors should carefully review the following factors together with other information contained in this Annual Report before making an investment decision. Mineral Property Exploration Risks The business of mineral exploration and extraction involves a high degree of risk. Few properties that are explored ultimately become producing mines. At present, none of the Company’s properties has a known commercial ore deposit. The main operating risks include ensuring ownership of and access to mineral properties by confirmation that option agreements, claims and leases are in good standing and obtaining permits for drilling and other exploration activities. When Eurasian earns interests in properties through option agreements, the acquisition of title to the properties is only completed when the option conditions have been met. These conditions generally include making property payments, incurring exploration expenditures on the properties and can include the satisfactory completion of pre-feasibility studies. If the Company does not satisfactorily complete these option conditions in the time frame laid out in the option agreements, the Company’s title to the related property will not vest and the Company will have to write-off any previously capitalized costs related to that property. The market prices for precious and base metals can be volatile and there is no assurance that a profitable market will exist for a production decision to be made or for the ultimate sale of the metals even if commercial quantities of precious and other metals are discovered. Revenue and Royalty Risks Eurasian cannot predict future revenues or operating results of the area of mining activity. Management expects future revenues from the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block, including the Leeville royalty property in Nevada, to fluctuate depending on the level of future production and the price of gold. Specifically, there is a risk that the operator of the property, Newmont Mining Corporation (“Newmont”), will cease to operate in the Company’s area of interest, therefore there can be no assurance that ongoing royalty payments will materialize or be received by Eurasian. 18 Last 6 months endedAverageHighLow CloseMarch 1 to 27, 2017 1.3389 1.3503 1.3308 1.3349 February 2017 1.3092 1.3203 1.3014 1.3203 January 2017 1.3218 1.3437 1.3078 1.3078 December 2016 1.3349 1.3570 1.3124 1.3437 November 2016 1.3456 1.3556 1.3362 1.3422 October 2016 1.3244 1.3403 1.3097 1.3403 September 2016 1.3093 1.3216 1.2860 1.3141 Last Quarter & Last 5 YearsFiscal Year Ended December 31, 2016 1.3251 1.4602 1.2533 1.3437 Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2015 1.2783 1.3955 1.1613 1.3869 Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2014 1.1041 1.1643 1.0627 1.1627 Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2013 1.0298 1.0703 0.9835 1.0694 Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2012 0.9996 1.0413 0.9675 0.9966 Financing and Share Price Fluctuation Risks Eurasian has limited financial resources and has no assurance that additional funding will be available for further exploration and development of its projects. Further exploration and development of one or more of the Company’s projects may be dependent upon the Company’s ability to obtain financing through equity or debt financing or other means. Failure to obtain this financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of further exploration and development of its projects which could result in the loss of one or more of its properties. The securities markets can experience a high degree of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies, particularly those considered to be development stage companies, such as Eurasian, may experience wide fluctuations in share prices which may not necessarily be related to their operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects. There can be no assurance that share price fluctuations will not occur in the future, and if they do occur, the severity of the impact on Eurasian’s ability to raise additional funds through equity issues. Foreign Countries and Political Risks The Company operates in countries with varied political and economic environments. As such, it is subject to certain risks, including currency fluctuations and possible political or economic instability which may result in the impairment or loss of mineral concessions or other mineral rights, opposition from environmental or other non-governmental organizations, and mineral exploration and mining activities may be affected in varying degrees by political stability and government regulations relating to the mineral exploration and mining industry. Any changes in regulations or shifts in political attitudes are beyond the control of the Company and may adversely affect its business. Exploration and development may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on future exploitation and production, price controls, export controls, foreign exchange controls, income taxes, expropriation of property, environmental legislation and mine and site safety. Notwithstanding any progress in restructuring political institutions or economic conditions, the present administration, or successor governments, of some countries in which Eurasian operates may not be able to sustain any progress. If any negative changes occur in the political or economic environment of these countries, it may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations in those countries. The Company does not carry political risk insurance. Competition The Company competes with many companies that have substantially greater financial and technical resources than it in the acquisition and development of its projects as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees. We do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company has not declared or paid any dividends on our Common Shares. Our current business plan requires that for the foreseeable future, any future earnings be reinvested to finance the growth and development of our business. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on the Common Shares in the foreseeable future. We will not declare or pay any dividends until such time as our cash flow exceeds our capital requirements and will depend upon, among other things, conditions then existing including earnings, financial condition, restrictions in financing arrangements, business opportunities and conditions and other factors, or our Board determines that our shareholders could make better use of the cash. No Assurance of Titles or Borders The acquisition of the right to exploit mineral properties is a very detailed and time consuming process. There can be no guarantee that the Company has acquired title to any such surface or mineral rights or that such rights will be obtained in the future. To the extent they are obtained, titles to the Company’s surface or mineral properties may be challenged or impugned and title insurance is generally not available. The Company’s surface or mineral properties may be subject to prior unregistered agreements, transfers or claims and title may be affected by, among other things, undetected defects. Such third party claims could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations. 19 Unknown Defects or Impairments in Our Royalty or Streaming Interests Unknown defects in or disputes relating to the royalty and stream interests we hold or acquire may prevent us from realizing the anticipated benefits from our royalty and stream interests, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. It is also possible that material changes could occur that may adversely affect management’s estimate of the carrying value of our royalty and stream interests and could result in impairment charges. While we seek to confirm the existence, validity, enforceability, terms and geographic extent of the royalty and stream interests we acquire, there can be no assurance that disputes over these and other matters will not arise. Confirming these matters, as well as the title to mining property on which we hold or seek to acquire a royalty or stream interest, is a complex matter, and is subject to the application of the laws of each jurisdiction to the particular circumstances of each parcel of mining property and to the documents reflecting the royalty or stream interest. Similarly, royalty and stream interests in many jurisdictions are contractual in nature, rather than interests in land, and therefore may be subject to change of control, bankruptcy or the insolvency of operators. We often do not have the protection of security interests over property that we could liquidate to recover all or part of our investment in a royalty or stream interest. Even if we retain our royalty and stream interests in a mining project after any change of control, bankruptcy or insolvency of the operator, the project may end up under the control of a new operator, who may or may not operate the project in a similar manner to the current operator, which may negatively impact us. Operators’ Interpretation of Our Royalty and Stream Interests; Unfulfilled Contractual Obligations Our royalty and stream interests generally are subject to uncertainties and complexities arising from the application of contract and property laws in the jurisdictions where the mining projects are located. Operators and other parties to the agreements governing our royalty and stream interests may interpret our interests in a manner adverse to us or otherwise may not abide by their contractual obligations, and we could be forced to take legal action to enforce our contractual rights. We may or may not be successful in enforcing our contractual rights, and our revenues relating to any challenged royalty or stream interests may be delayed, curtailed or eliminated during the pendency of any such dispute or in the event our position is not upheld, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Disputes could arise challenging, among other things: the existence or geographic extent of the royalty or stream interest;   methods for calculating the royalty or stream interest, including whether certain operator costs may properly be deducted from gross proceeds when calculating royalties determined on a net basis; third party claims to the same royalty interest or to the property on which we have a royalty or stream interest; various rights of the operator or third parties in or to the royalty or stream interest; production and other thresholds and caps applicable to payments of royalty or stream interests; the obligation of an operator to make payments on royalty and stream interests; and various defects or ambiguities in the agreement governing a royalty and stream interest.      Currency Risks The Company’s equity financings are sourced in Canadian dollars but much of its expenditures are in local currencies or U.S. dollars. At this time, there are no currency hedges in place. Therefore, a weakening of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar or local currencies could have an adverse impact on the amount of exploration funds available and work conducted. Joint Venture and Exploration Funding Risk Eurasian’s strategy is to seek exploration and joint venture partners through options and joint ventures to fund exploration and project development. The main risk of this strategy is that the funding parties may not be able to raise sufficient capital in order to satisfy exploration and other expenditure terms in a particular joint venture agreement. As a result, exploration and development of one or more of the Company’s property interests may be delayed depending on whether Eurasian can find another party or has enough capital resources to fund the exploration and development on its own. Insured and Uninsured Risks In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, the Company is subject to a number of risks and hazards in general, including adverse environmental conditions, operational accidents, labor disputes, unusual or unexpected geological conditions, changes in the regulatory environment and natural phenomena such as inclement weather conditions, floods, and earthquakes. Such occurrences could result in the damage to the Company’s property or facilities and equipment, personal injury or death, environmental damage to properties of the Company or others, delays, monetary losses and possible legal liability. 20 Although the Company may maintain insurance to protect against certain risks in such amounts as it considers reasonable, its insurance may not cover all the potential risks associated with its operations. The Company may also be unable to maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums or for other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate future profitability and result in increased costs, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and a decline in the value of the securities of the Company. Some work is carried out through independent consultants and the Company requires all consultants to carry their own insurance to cover any potential liabilities as a result of their work on a project. Environmental Risks and Hazards The activities of the Company are subject to environmental regulations issued and enforced by government agencies. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that will require stricter standards and enforcement and involve increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects, and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There can be no assurance that future changes in environmental regulation, if any, will not adversely affect Eurasian’s operations. Environmental hazards may exist on properties in which the Company holds interests which are unknown to the Company at present. We or the mining properties in which we have an interest are subject to substantial government regulation in the United States and in the other jurisdictions in which we operate. Changes to regulation or more stringent implementation could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, such as the federal Clean Water Act and the Nevada Water Pollution Control Law. Although we currently believe that we are in compliance with existing environmental and mining laws and regulations and that our proposed exploration programs will also meet those standards, no assurance can be given that we will remain in compliance with applicable regulations or that new rules and regulations will not be enacted or that existing rules and regulations will not be applied in a manner that could limit or curtail production or development of our properties. Reform of the General Mining Law could adversely impact our results of operations. A majority of our mining properties in the United States consist of unpatented mining claims on federal lands. Legislation has been introduced regularly in the U.S. Congress over the last decade to change the General Mining Law of 1872, as amended (the "Mining Law"), under which we hold these unpatented mining claims. It is possible that the Mining Law may be amended or replaced by less favorable legislation in the future. Previously proposed legislation contained a production royalty obligation, new environmental standards and conditions, additional reclamation requirements and extensive new procedural steps which would likely result in delays in permitting. The ultimate content of future proposed legislation, if enacted, is uncertain. At present, there is no royalty payable to the United States on production from unpatented mining claims, although legislative attempts to impose a royalty have occurred in recent years. Amendments to current laws and regulations governing our operations and activities of exploration, development mining and milling or more stringent implementation thereof could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and cause increases in exploration expenses, capital expenditures or production costs or reduction in levels of production or require delays or abandonment in the development of new mining properties. If a royalty on unpatented mining claims were imposed, the profitability of our U.S. unpatented mining claims could be materially adversely affected. Any such reform of the Mining Law could increase the costs of mining activities on unpatented mining claims, or could materially impair our ability to develop or continue operations which derive ore from federal lands, and as a result, could have an adverse effect on us and our results of operations. Mineral reserves are only estimates which may be unreliable. Although mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the mineralization can be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time the “reserve” determination is made, “mineral reserves” are estimates only, and no assurance can be given that the anticipated tonnages and grades will be achieved, that the indicated level of recovery will be realized or that mineral reserves can be mined or processed profitably. Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing and other relevant issues. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating mineral reserves and mineral resources, including many factors beyond our control. Such estimation is a subjective process, and the accuracy of any mineral reserve or mineral resource estimate is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, the nature of the ore body and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation. These estimates may require adjustments or downward revisions based upon further exploration or development work or actual production experience. 21 Fluctuations in gold or silver prices, results of drilling, metallurgical testing and production, the evaluation of mine plans after the date of any estimate, permitting requirements or unforeseen technical or operational difficulties may require revision of mineral reserve estimates. Prolonged declines in the market price of gold or silver may render mineral reserves containing relatively lower grades of mineralization uneconomical to recover and could materially reduce our mineral reserves. Should reductions in mineral reserves occur, we may be required to take a material write-down of our investment in mining properties, reduce the carrying value of one or more of our assets or delay or discontinue production or the development of new projects, resulting in increased net losses and reduced cash flow. Mineral reserves should not be interpreted as assurances of mine life or of the profitability of current or future operations. There is a degree of uncertainty attributable to the calculation and estimation of mineral reserves and corresponding grades being mined and, as a result, the volume and grade of mineral reserves mined and processed and recovery rates may not be the same as currently anticipated. Any material reductions in estimates of mineral reserves, or of our ability to extract these mineral reserves, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Fluctuating Metal Prices Factors beyond the control of the Company have a direct effect on global metal prices, which have fluctuated widely, particularly in recent years, and there is no assurance that a profitable market will exist for a production decision to be made or for the ultimate sale of the metals even if commercial quantities of precious and other metals are discovered on any of Eurasian’s properties. Consequently, the economic viability of any of the Company’s exploration projects and its ability to finance the development of its projects cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in metal prices. Extensive Governmental Regulation and Permitting Requirements Risks Exploration, development and mining of minerals are subject to extensive laws and regulations at various governmental levels governing the acquisition of the mining interests, prospecting, development, mining, production, exports, taxes, labor standards, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection, mine safety and other matters. In addition, the current and future operations of Eurasian, from exploration through development activities and production, require permits, licenses and approvals from some of these governmental authorities. Eurasian has obtained all government licenses, permits and approvals necessary for the operation of its business to date. However, additional licenses, permits and approvals may be required. The failure to obtain any licenses, permits or approvals that may be required or the revocation of existing ones would have a material and adverse effect on Eurasian, its business and results of operations. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permits may result in enforcement actions thereunder, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities requiring Eurasian’s operations to cease or be curtailed, and may include corrective measures requiring capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions. Eurasian may be required to compensate those suffering loss or damage by reason of its mineral exploration activities and may have civil or criminal fines or penalties imposed for violations of such laws, regulations and permits. Any such events could have a material and adverse effect on Eurasian and its business and could result in Eurasian not meeting its business objectives. In addition, we are required to expend significant resources to comply with numerous corporate governance and disclosure regulations and requirements adopted by U.S. federal and state and Canadian federal and provincial governments, as well as the TSX and NYSE MKT. These additional compliance costs and related diversion of the attention of management and key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Key Personnel Risk Eurasian’s success is dependent upon the performance of key personnel working in management and administrative capacities or as consultants. The loss of the services of senior management or key personnel could have a material and adverse effect on the Company, its business and results of operations. The Company does not carry “key personnel” insurance. 22 Conflicts of Interest In accordance with the laws of British Columbia and the United States, the directors and officers of a Company are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company. Eurasian’s directors and officers may serve as directors or officers of other companies or have significant shareholdings in other resource companies and, to the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which the Company may participate, such directors and officers may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding terms respecting the extent of such participation. If such a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the Company’s directors, a director with such a conflict will abstain from voting for or against the approval of such participation or such terms. Passive Foreign Investment Company U.S. investors in common shares should be aware that based on current business plans and financial expectations, Eurasian currently expects that it will be classified as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for the tax year ending December 31, 2016 and expects to be a PFIC in future tax years. If Eurasian is a PFIC for any tax year during a U.S. shareholder’s holding period, then such U.S. shareholder generally will be required to treat any gain realized upon a disposition of common shares, or any so-called “excess distribution” received on its common shares, as ordinary income, and to pay an interest charge on a portion of such gain or distributions, unless the U.S. shareholder makes a timely and effective “qualified electing fund” election (“QEF Election”) or a “mark-to-market” election with respect to the common shares. A U.S. shareholder who makes a QEF Election generally must report on a current basis its share of Eurasian’s net capital gain and ordinary earnings for any year in which Eurasian is a PFIC, whether or not Eurasian distributes any amounts to its shareholders. For each tax year that Eurasian qualifies as a PFIC, Eurasian intends to: (a) make available to U.S. shareholders, upon their written request, a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-1(g) (or any successor Treasury Regulation) and (b) upon written request, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide all additional information that such U.S. shareholder is required to obtain in connection with maintaining such QEF Election with regard to Eurasian. Eurasian may elect to provide such information on its website www.EurasianMinerals.com. This paragraph is qualified in its entirety by the discussion below the heading “Taxation – Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations.” Each U.S. investor should consult its own tax advisor regarding the PFIC rules and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares. Corporate Governance and Public Disclosure Regulations The Company is subject to changing rules and regulations promulgated by a number of United States and Canadian governmental and self-regulated organizations, including the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the British Columbia and Alberta Securities Commissions, the NYSE MKT and the TSX-V. These rules and regulations continue to evolve in scope and complexity and many new requirements have been created, making compliance more difficult and uncertain. The Company’s efforts to comply with the new rules and regulations have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. Internal Controls over Financial Reporting Applicable securities laws require an annual assessment by management of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company may, in the future, fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of its internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, and the Company may not be able to ensure that it can conclude on an ongoing basis that it has effective internal control over financial reporting. Future acquisitions may provide the Company with challenges in implementing the required processes, procedures and controls in its acquired operations. Acquired Corporations may not have disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting that are as thorough or effective as those required by securities laws currently applicable to the Company. No evaluation can provide complete assurance that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be reported. The effectiveness of the Company’s controls and procedures could also be limited by simple errors or faulty judgments. In addition, should the Company expand in the future, the challenges involved in implementing appropriate internal control over financial reporting will increase and will require that the Company continue to improve its internal control over financial reporting. 23 ITEM 4.

On July 25, 2016 the Company reported that IG Copper LLC ("IGC") advises that approval to advance the Malmyzh copper- gold project has been received from the Government Commission on Monitoring Foreign Investment (the "Commission") chaired by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. The Malmyzh exploration and mining licenses are held by IGC (51%) and Freeport-McMoRan Exploration Corporation (49%) (the "Joint Venture"), with IGC operating and managing the project. EMX is IGC’s largest shareholder with 39% of the issued and outstanding shares. The Commission's approval marks a pivotal milestone in the development of the Malmzyh project. IGC has advised that the Commission's approval represents the successful completion of the review process required for “strategically significant” deposits according to Russian law (i.e., the Law on Foreign Investments in Strategic Industries, also termed the Strategic Industries Law or "SIL"). The SIL approval process commenced after the Joint Venture, through its Russian subsidiary Amur Minerals LLC, received certified “on balance C1+C2 reserves” from the GKZ (State Reserves Committee) that exceeded thresholds for both copper and gold defining Malmyzh as a "strategically significant" mineral deposit. EMX emphasizes that the Malmyzh “C1+C2 reserves” were estimated according to the rules and regulations of the Russian Federation, and are not the same as reserves under NI 43-101. According to IGC, highlights of the Commission's approval include:  The Joint Venture, as a majority foreign owned business entity, has been approved to retain control of the Malmyzh project exploration and mining licenses.  The Joint Venture, therefore, maintains mining and production rights for the Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses.  The Joint Venture holds 100% of the rights for the Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses, and is entitled to recover all minerals of economic value including copper, gold and by-product minerals. The conclusion of the SIL process initiates a new, multi-year phase in the project's development. The Malmyzh team is preparing a “Project” (Proekt) document that outlines advanced plans and programs that include additional technical work (i.e., drilling, exploration, metallurgy, engineering, and hydrology), as well as environmental, social, and economic assessments. The detailed Project plan will be submitted to the appropriate agencies for approval. Once accepted, IGC advises that the Joint Venture will commence executing the approved Project plan. This next phase of work will ultimately conclude as a detailed "TEO1 of Permanent Conditions" report, which is considered to be a precursor to commencement of exploitation and mining. 1 Technico-Economicheskiye Obosnovaniye (Technical-Economic Basis) On August 3, 2016, the Company announced the sale of EBX Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Sisorta gold property (the “Sisorta Property”) in Turkey, to Bahar Madencilik Sinayi ve Ticaret Ltd Sti ("Bahar"), a privately owned Turkish company, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Sisorta Agreement”) with Bahar.

Pursuant to the Coeur Agreement, Coeur may acquire a 100% interest in the Mineral Hill Property by a) making yearly option payments, beginning upon execution of the Coeur Agreement, totaling US$435,000 (US$10,000 received upon execution), b) making exploration expenditures totaling US$1,550,000 on or before the fifth anniversary of the agreement, and c) paying US$250,000 upon exercise of the option. Upon exercise of the option, EMX and MHL will retain a 4% NSR royalty, of which Coeur may purchase up to 1.5% of the NSR royalty if, within sixty days after the completion of a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”), Coeur purchases the first 0.5% for US$1,000,000. Coeur may purchase an additional 0.5% or 1% of the NSR royalty at any time thereafter for US$2,000,000 per 0.5% interest (maximum total buy down of 1.5%), with EMX and MHL retaining a 2.5% interest. After the option exercise, EMX and MHL will receive annual advance minimum royalties of US$150,000 and, upon completion of a feasibility study, a milestone payment of US$1,000,000. On November 22, 2016 the Company announced the execution of a definitive agreement with Boreal Metals Corp. (“BMC”), a British Columbia corporation, pursuant to which BMC will acquire two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company that control the Gumsberg and Adak exploration assets in Sweden and the Tynset and Burfjord assets in Norway (the “Scandinavian Properties”). Closing occurred in Q1 2017. The sale of the Scandinavian portfolio is another example of Eurasian’s execution of its royalty generation business model, resulting in additional organic royalty property growth for Eurasian, as well as establishing a substantial equity position in a new Scandinavian-focused resource company. Commercial Terms Overview: :  At closing, Eurasian will transfer to BMC its entire interest in its wholly-owned subsidiary Iekelvare AB, which owns or will own that portion of the Scandinavian Properties located in Sweden, and its entire interest in its wholly- owned subsidiary EMX Exploration Scandinavia AB, which owns that portion of the Scandinavian Properties located in Norway. 31  At closing, BMC will issue to Eurasian that number of common shares of BMC that represents a 19.9% equity ownership in BMC; BMC will have the continuing obligation to issue additional shares of BMC to Eurasian to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC, at no additional cost to Eurasian, until BMC has raised CDN$5,000,000 in equity; thereafter Eurasian will have the right to participate pro-rata in future financings at its own cost to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC.  Eurasian will receive an uncapped 3% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty on each of the Scandinavian Properties. Within five years of the closing date, BMC has the right to buy down up to 1% of the royalty owed to Eurasian on any given project (leaving Eurasian with a 2% NSR) by paying Eurasian US$2,500,000 in cash and shares of BMC. Such buy down is project specific.  Eurasian will receive annual advance royalty (“AAR”) payments of US$20,000 for each of the Properties commencing on the second anniversary of the closing, with each AAR payment increasing by US$5,000 per year until reaching US$60,000 per year, except that BMC may forgo AAR payments on two of the four Scandinavian Properties in years two and three. Once reaching US$60,000, AAR payments will be adjusted each year according to the Consumer Price Index (as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics).  Eurasian will receive a 0.5% NSR royalty on any new mineral exploration projects generated by BMC in Sweden or Norway, excluding projects acquired from a third party containing a mineral resource or reserve or an existing mining operation. These royalties are not capped and not subject to a buy down.  Eurasian will have the right to nominate one seat on the Board of Directors of BMC. On December 16, 2016 the Company announced that it will change the ticker symbol of its common shares listed on the NYSE MKT from EMXX to EMX effective Monday, December 26, 2016. Eurasian Minerals Inc. now trades on both the TSX Venture and NYSE MKT exchanges as EMX. Subsequent to Year Ended 2016 On January 24, 2017 the Company announced initial results from the fall-winter drill program at the Malmyzh copper-gold porphyry project, including the longest mineralized intercept drilled to date on the property. Drill hole AMM-213 intersected 747.4 meters (108.7-856.1 m) averaging 0.49% copper equivalent (0.41% copper and 0.17 g/t gold) principally hosted in phreatomagmatic breccias and diorite porphyries at the Freedom Northwest prospect. The hole doubled the drilled vertical extent of the Freedom Northwest system, while bottoming in mineralization. In addition, reconnaissance drilling at the Sleeper West prospect intersected a shallow zone of 109 meters averaging 0.58% copper equivalent (0.53% copper and 0.09 g/t gold) starting at 13.5 meters in hole AMM-210. Freedom Northwest and Sleeper West are not included in the current Malmyzh resource estimate, which underscores the project's additional exploration upside. The Malmyzh exploration and mining licenses are held by IG Copper LLC ("IGC") (51%) and Freeport-McMoRan Exploration Corporation (49%) (the "Joint Venture"), with IGC operating and managing the project. EMX is IGC’s largest shareholder with 39% of the issued and outstanding shares. On January 25, 2017 the Company provided an update on the Company's Leeville royalty property that covers portions of Newmont Mining Corporation's ("Newmont") underground mining operations in the Northern Carlin Trend. EMX has noted an increase in Leeville royalty revenue and equity gold ounces starting in mid-2016. In addition to royalty income from gold production, the Leeville property also provides the Company with upside exposure to Newmont's ongoing exploration advancements at the Rita K and Full House gold deposits. Newmont expects initial resources for Rita K in 2018, and has already outlined resources at Full House. 32 4.B. BUSINESS OVERVIEW Eurasian is principally in the business of exploring for, and generating royalties from, metals and minerals properties, as well as identifying royalty opportunities for purchase. Eurasian’s business is carried out as a royalty and prospect generator. Under the royalty and prospect generation business model, it acquires and advances early-stage mineral exploration projects and then options the projects to, and thereby forms relationships with, other parties in consideration of a retained royalty interest, as well as annual advanced royalty and other cash or share payments and exploration carried out by the other parties. Through its various agreements, Eurasian also provides technical and commercial assistance to such companies as the projects advance. By optioning interests in its projects to third parties for a royalty interest, Eurasian: (a) (b) (c) reduces its exposure to the costs and risks associated with mineral exploration and project development, maintains the opportunity to participate in early-stage exploration upside, and develops a pipeline for potential production royalty payments and associated greenfields discoveries in the future. This approach helps preserve the Company’s treasury, which can be utilized for further project acquisitions and other business initiatives. The Company’s royalty and exploration portfolio consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Haiti, Australia, and New Zealand. Eurasian started receiving royalty income as of August 17, 2012 when it acquired Bullion Monarch. This royalty cash flow serves to provide a foundation to support the Company’s growth over the long term. Strategic investments are an important complement to the Company’s royalty and prospect generation initiatives. These investments are made in unrecognized or under-valued exploration companies identified by Eurasian. EMX helps to develop the value of these assets, with exit strategies that can include royalty positions or equity sales. Government Regulation and Environmental Protection Eurasian's current exploration activities are conducted in North America, Turkey, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Such activities are affected in varying degrees by political stability and government regulations relating to foreign investment and the mining industry. Changes in these regulations or shifts in political attitudes are beyond Eurasian's control and may adversely affect Eurasian's business. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to restrictions on production, income taxes, expropriation of property, repatriation of funds, environmental legislation and mine safety. The mining industry is also subject to extensive and varying environmental regulations in each of the jurisdictions in which Eurasian operates. Environmental regulations establish standards respecting health, safety and environmental matters and place restrictions on toxins resulting from mining activities. These regulations can have an impact on the selection of mining projects and facilities, potentially resulting in increased capital expenditures by Eurasian or its joint venture partners. In addition, environmental legislation may require certain projects to be abandoned and sites reclaimed to the satisfaction of local authorities. Eurasian is committed to complying with environmental and operation legislation wherever it operates. Eurasian’s current or future operations, including exploration and development activities on its properties, require permits from various governmental authorities, and such operations are, and will be, governed by laws and regulations governing exploration, development, taxes, occupational health, waste disposal, toxic substances, land use, environmental protection and other matters. Compliance with these requirements may prove to be difficult and expensive. While Eurasian has properties in numerous jurisdictions, its most advanced projects are located in Turkey and the United States. Governmental Regulation in Turkey Mining Regulation The legal mining regime in Turkey is principally governed by the Turkish Mining Law No. 3213, as amended most recently on February 4, 20151 for the purpose of, among other things, avoiding labour accidents, and restating the mining license fees, governmental royalties, and sanctions in order to make it more compliant with the most recent global conditions. The Turkish Mining Activities Implementation Communiqué was adopted and amended during the amendment of Turkish Mining Law on June 10, 2010; however, this Implementation Communiqué has not been amended yet in accordance with the latest 1 Turkish Mining Law No.3213 was first adopted on June 4, 1985 with several amendments on December 24, 1986, July 30, 1999, June 15, 2001, May 26 2004, June 3, 2007, June 10, 2010 and with the latest amendment on February 4, 2015. 33 amendments of Turkish Mining Law dated February 4, 2015. Turkey is still awaiting the adoption of the amendment of Implementation Communiqué to comply with latest amended Turkish Mining Law. The mining sector is regulated under the umbrella of the General Directorate of Mining Affairs of the Republic of Turkey, a unit of the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of the Republic of Turkey. Mining rights and minerals are exclusively owned by the Turkish state, and the ownership of minerals in Turkey is not subject to the ownership of the relevant land. The state, under the Turkish Mining Law and secondary mining legislation, delegates its rights to explore and operate to Turkish individuals or legal entities established under Turkish law by issuing licenses for a determined period of time in return for the payment of a royalty. There is no distinction between the mining rights that may be acquired by local investors and those that may be acquired by foreign investors so long as foreign investors establish a company in Turkey under Turkish law. The General Directorate of Mining Affairs, is the authorized body to regulate mining activities and to issue mining licenses in Turkey. In addition, local administrative bodies of Turkey also have a certain level of authority relating to licenses and the regulation of mining facilities. Transferring the mining license is subject to the prior approval of the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of the Republic of Turkey. The Turkish Mining Law classifies underground resources into six different groups, and the licensing procedure for each group differs slightly. Briefly, the groups are as follows: (I) sand and gravel, (II) marble and other similar decorative stones, (III) mineral salts from seas, lakes and fresh waters, (IV) energy, metal and industrial minerals, including gold, silver, platinum, copper, lead, zinc, aluminum, uranium, thorium and radioactive minerals, (V) precious minerals such as gemstones, and (VI) a group of minerals which is not stated amongst these groups shall be identified by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of Republic of Turkey under secondary legislation of Turkey. There are two types of licenses granted for the exploration and operation of mines and one type of operation permit under the Turkish Mining Law, as follows: Group II (b), Group III, Group IV minerals at the first stage require general exploration licenses. Group V minerals require exploration certificates. Group I and Group II (a) and (c) are directly granted with operation licences.  Exploration License. Enables its holder to carry out general exploration activities (i.e., all mining activities other than those carried out for production) in a specific area issued for a period of two years for Group IV minerals including gold mining and one year for the other groups. If the license holder owning a group of minerals satisfies its obligations, the license holder owning Group IV minerals will have a right to an additional four years of detailed exploration; for Group II (b), Group III and Group V mines, the relevant license holder is obliged to meet the operation license’s requirements until the end of its general exploration period.  Operation License. Enables its holder to carry out operational activities within the same area as stated in the exploration license for the proved, potential and feasible mine reserve area. The term of the operation license for Group I (a) minerals are five years. The other groups of minerals are at least ten years depending on the specific project. The terms of the operation licenses may generally be extended upon the application of the license holder with a new operation project provided that such extension request is accepted by the General Directorate of Mining Affairs of Turkey. The term of the operation license for Group I (a) minerals cannot exceed thirty years, for Group II minerals cannot exceed forty years, and for other groups of minerals cannot exceed fifty years. Extension requests for more than thirty years for Group I (a) minerals and forty years for Group II minerals are made directly to the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of the Republic of Turkey and for more than fifty years for other groups of minerals are made directly to Ministry of Council of Republic of Turkey.  Operation Permit. EnablES its holder to operate a specific mine as specified in the operation license and granted only for the proved mine reserves area that is determined during the prospecting period. The license holder, within three years following the issuance of the operation license shall obtain the required approvals, permits such as environmental impact assessment decision, ownership decision, land usage decision, workplace opening and operation permit and other permits stated under clause 7 of the Mining Law and then, accordingly, the license holder is granted the operation permit by the General Directorate of Mining Affairs of Turkey. The operation permit is required to be obtained until the end of the term of the operation license. The Turkish Mining Law provides for different royalty percentages for different groups of mines. The royalty percentages for Group IV minerals, including gold, silver, platinum, lead copper, zinc, aluminum and uranium oxide minerals are in the below chart. 34 The Royalty Percentages For Group IV Minerals under Turkish Mining Law Royalty(%) Gold Silver Platinum $/oz $/oz $/oz <800 801-1250 <10 11-20 <500 501-1000 1251-1500 21-25 1501-1750 25-30 1751-2000 31-35 2001-2250 36-40 >2251 >41 1001- 1250 1251- 1500 1501- 1750 1751- 2000 >2001 2 4 6 8 10 14 16 Coppe r $/oz <5000 5001- 7500 7501- 8000 8001- 8500 8501- 9000 9001- 9500 >9501 Environmental Regulation Lead Zinc Chrome Aluminum Uranium Oxide $/oz $/oz $/T $/T 101-300 301-500 <1000 <1000 <100 1001- 1001- 2500 2000 2501- 2001- 3000 2250 3001- 2251- 3500 2500 3501- 2501- 4000 3000 4001- 3001- 3500 4500 >3501 >4501 >1101 701-900 501-700 <1000 1001-2000 $/lb <20 20-40 2001-2350 41-80 2351-2600 81-110 2601-2850 111-140 901-1100 2851-3100 141-170 >3101 >171 In Turkey, where Eurasian’s most advanced projects are located, both the level of environmental regulation and its enforcement have become more stringent in recent years. Mining operations are subject to environmental laws and regulations promulgated by the Turkish Ministry of Environment and Urban Planning, the Ministry of Forestry and Water Works and regional and local authorities. The Turkish Mining Law amended in 2015 has brought more detailed provisions to the mining activities for the compliance of environmental rules. The Regulation on Environmental Impact Assessments, for example, requires any entity that is involved in activities that could have an environmental impact to prepare a Report of Environmental Impact Assessment or a Project Information File. No approvals, permits, incentives, or construction and occupancy licenses may be granted, nor any investments made, nor any tenders awarded for these projects unless and until the Turkish Ministry of Environment and Urban Planning issues a positive assessment of the environmental impact of the subject activities. The Turkish environmental laws and regulations also require certain businesses to comply with ongoing requirements to reduce the environmental impact of certain operations and activities, which also include mining activities. In addition, in Turkey, the issue of allocation of environmentally sensitive areas such as forest areas, hunting areas, special protection areas, national parks and agriculture areas for the granting of licenses for activities to be carried out in such areas is also regulated and is under the supervision of the Turkish Ministry of Forestry and Water Works. Under current Turkish environmental laws and regulations, regulatory authorities may suspend or terminate non-compliant operations, levy monetary penalties and require non-compliant entities to bear the cost of related remediation programs. For example, under Turkish environmental and criminal laws, non-compliant operations may be subject to private action and liable for damages arising from their activities, as well as subject to criminal penalties (such as imprisonment and monetary fines) for deliberately providing regulatory authorities with false or misleading information regarding regulated activities or otherwise failing to comply with certain regulations. In addition, a property owner may be held liable for the cost of the removal or remediation of hazardous or toxic wastes discovered on its property, the cost of which could be substantial, where generally such liability attaches regardless of whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Environmental laws, as they may be amended over time, can impose restrictions on the manner of use of properties, and compliance with these restrictions may require substantial expenditures. Environmental laws and regulations impose sanctions for non-compliance and may be enforced by governmental agencies. Third parties also may seek recovery from companies for personal injury or property damage associated with exposure to the release of hazardous substances. Commercial Regulation The Turkish Commercial Code numbered 6762, which was in effect as of 1957, has been amended substantially with the new Turkish Commercial Code numbered 6102 (the “New Turkish Commercial Code”). The New Turkish Commercial Code came into force on July 1, 2012. The New Turkish Commercial Code is intended to provide for institutionalisation, increased competitive power and the establishment of increased public confidence, corporate governance and transparency, The code permits joint stock companies and limited liability companies to be established with only one shareholder and with one board member. 35 Some of the key features of the New Turkish Code include the following:  Companies are generally obliged to have a website online and to allocate a part of this website to publish certain issues, documents, financial statements and resolutions whether publicly traded or not.  For joint stock companies, it is sufficient for the board of directors to consist of solely one member. A legal entity can also be a board member; however in this case, a natural person must be designated to represent the legal entity. There is no restriction and mandatory requirement for the board members to reside in Turkey and to be a Turkish citizen.  Board members of a joint stock company are no longer required to shareholders in the company.  The financial tables of a joint stock company are to be prepared in accordance with the financial reporting standards determined by the Turkish Accounting Standards Board. These standards are expected to be amended to comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).  The New Turkish Commercial Code enables the board members to attend and to vote in meetings via transfer of image and voice according to the provisions of the articles of association of the company. The provisions regarding the meeting and decision quorum of the board of directors shall also be applicable if the meetings of the board of directors are held in an electronic environment.  The New Turkish Commercial Code stipulates the rights of shareholders to attend, give proposals, declare opinions and vote at the general assembly of joint stock company via electronic means.  The management and representation of a limited company may be performed by one or more managers. For a limited liability company, it is sufficient to have at least one manager. If there is more than one manager then there is a board of managers. In this situation, one of the managers is appointed by general assembly as a chairman of the board of managers. The President of board of managers has an authority to make all statements and declarations on behalf of the company. In any case, at least one shareholder must be appointed as a manager who has a right to manage and represent the limited liability company.  The limited liability company must keep a share ledger. The share ledger shall reflect the following; names/titles and addresses of the shareholders, number of shares held by each shareholder, share transfer details, nominal value of shares, class of shares, encumbrances over the shares and the names/titles and addresses of beneficiaries of such encumbrances created over the shares.  The limited liability company is obliged to keep the commercial books indicating the commercial transactions and asset structure of the company. The LLC shall observe and apply Turkish Accounting Standards as announced by the Turkish Accounting Standards Board, including the conceptual framework of accounting principles and interpretations while keeping its commercial books. An important change however, is that the compulsory accounting standards will adopt IFRS. The opening and closing of the books must be certified by a notary public.  The manager(s) of a limited liability company must prepare and submit to the attention of the general assembly the financial charts, appendices and the activity report of the company for the preceding accounting period. This must be done in accordance with the Turkish Accounting Standards and within the first three months of the relevant accounting period (fiscal year) following the balance sheet date. The relevant Turkish Accounting Standards have been applicable from January 1, 2013. Eurasian cannot predict the outcome of each effect of the New Turkish Code, and compliance with these requirements may prove to be difficult and expensive. Repatriation of Earnings Currently, there are no restrictions on the repatriation of earnings or capital to foreign entities from Turkey, where Eurasian’s most advanced projects are located. However, there can be no assurance that any such restrictions on repatriation of earnings or capital from Turkey or any other country where we may invest will not be imposed in the future. 36 Governmental Regulation in the United States Mining Regulation Mining activities in the United States are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations. At the federal level, mines are subject to inspection and regulation by the United States Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) under provisions of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. The Occupation Safety and Health Administration also has jurisdiction over certain safety and health standards not covered by MSHA. Mining operations and all proposed exploration and development require a variety of permits. In addition, any mining operations occurring on federal property are subject to regulation and inspection by the United States Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”). Eurasian's current projects are also subject to state and local laws and regulations in Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming. Environmental Regulation Eurasian’s exploration, mining and processing operations are subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations governing prospecting, exploration, development, production, labor standards, occupational health, mine safety, control of toxic substances, and other matters involving environmental protection and employment. United States environmental protection laws address the maintenance of air and water quality standards, the preservation of threatened and endangered species of wildlife and vegetation, the preservation of certain archaeological sites, reclamation, and limitations on the generation, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous wastes, among other things. Legislation and implementation of regulations adopted or proposed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the BLM and by comparable agencies in various states directly and indirectly affect the mining industry in the United States. These laws and regulations address the environmental impact of mining and mineral processing, including potential contamination of soil and water from tailings, discharges and other wastes generated by mining process. In particular, legislation such as the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act, the Federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and the National Environmental Policy Act require analysis and/or impose effluent standards, new source performance standards, air quality standards and other design or operational requirements for various components of mining and mineral processing. Mining projects also are subject to regulations under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, which regulates and establishes liability for the release of hazardous substances. In addition, statutes may impose liability on mine developers for remediation of waste they have created. Our operations are also subject to laws and regulations governing protection of endangered and other specified species. In May 2015, the U.S. Department of the Interior released a plan to protect the greater sage grouse, a species whose natural habitat is found across much of the western United States, including Nevada. The U.S. Department of the Interior’s plan is intended to guide conservation efforts on approximately 70 million acres of national public lands. No assurances can be made that restrictions relating to conservation will not have an adverse impact on our operations in impacted areas. Specialized Skill and Knowledge All aspects of Eurasian’s business require specialized skills and knowledge. Such skills and knowledge include the areas of geology, finance, accounting and law. Competitive Conditions Competition in the mineral exploration industry is intense. Eurasian competes with other companies, many of which have greater financial resources and technical facilities, for the acquisition and exploration of mineral interests, as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees and consultants. Raw Materials (Components) Other than water and electrical or mechanical power – all of which are readily available on or near its properties – Eurasian does not require any raw materials with which to carry out its business. Intangible Property Eurasian does not have any need for nor does it use any brand names, circulation lists, patents, copyrights, trademarks, franchises, licenses, software (other than commercially available software), subscription lists or other intellectual property in its business. 37 Business Cycle & Seasonality Eurasian’s royalty and prospect generator business model is cyclical and is impacted by commodity prices and cycles; however, its business is not seasonal. Economic Dependence Other than the contracts disclosed in this Form 20-F, Eurasian’s business is not substantially dependent on any contract such as a contract to sell the major part of its products or services or to purchase the major part of its requirements for goods, services or raw materials, or on any franchise or license or other agreement to use a patent, formula, trade secret, process or trade name upon which its business depends. Renegotiation or Termination of Contracts It is not expected that Eurasian’s business will be affected in the current financial year by the renegotiation or termination of contracts or sub-contracts. Environmental Protection All phases of Eurasian’s exploration are subject to environmental regulation in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which requires stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects and a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. While manageable, Eurasian expects this evolution (which affects most mineral exploration companies) might result in increased costs. Employees At December 31, 2016, Eurasian had 39 employees and consultants working at various locations throughout the world. Foreign Operations Many of Eurasian’s properties are located outside of North America and many are located in areas traditionally considered to be risky from a political or economic perspective. Bankruptcy Reorganizations There have not been any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings against Eurasian within the three most recently completed financial years or the current financial year. Material Reorganizations There has not been any material reorganization of Eurasian or its subsidiaries within the three most recently completed financial years or the current financial year. Social or Environmental Policies Eurasian has implemented various social policies that are fundamental to its operations, such as policies regarding its relationship with the communities where the Company operates. 38 1. Environmental Policy The Company believes that good environmental management at every project it manages, whether in the exploration phase, feasibility stage, project construction or mine site operation, requires proactive health and safety procedures, transparent interaction with local communities and implementation of prudent expenditures and business performance standards that constitutes the foundation for successful exploration and subsequent development if the results warrant it. Eurasian will develop and implement appropriate standard operating procedures for different stages of its ground technical surveys, prospecting and evaluation and development work which procedures will be designed to meet all applicable environmental requirements and best environmental practices in the mineral exploration industry. 2. Community Relations, Communication and Notification Policy Proactive interaction with the stakeholders on whom the Company’s exploration and development programs may impact is considered an important part of the long-term investment that the Company is planning in its exploration programs in North America, Turkey, Europe, Australia, and the Asia-Pacific region. Eurasian recognizes that from the inception of exploration activities or a new field work program, and as the exploration project progresses towards development, it will be important to: ♦ ♦ ♦ communicate and proactively engage with all local communities and other stakeholders that may be affected by its exploration programs; inform and obtain a consensus with the full range of stakeholders that may be impacted upon by exploration, evaluation and development; and identify any vulnerable or marginalized groups within the affected communities (e.g. women, elders or handicapped) and ensure they are also reached by above information disclosure and consultation activities. In these respects, Eurasian will work actively and transparently with governmental authorities, other elected parties, non- governmental organizations, and the communities themselves to ensure that the communities are aware of the activities of the Company, and that the impact and benefits of such activities are a benefit to the communities. When detailed or advanced exploration activities, including drilling, evaluation and other such programs, are implemented, the Company will endeavor to identify how the impacts of such work on communities can best be managed, and how benefits can best be provided to communities through its activities. This will be undertaken in consultation with the affected communities. 3. Labour, Health and Safety Policy The health and safety of its employees, contractors, affected communities and any other role players that may participate and be affected by the activities of EMX are crucial to the long term success of the Company. The Company will establish and maintain a constructive work-management relationship, promote the fair treatment, non- discrimination, and equal opportunity of workers. Every effort will be made through training, regular reviews and briefings, and other procedures to ensure that best practice labor, health and safety and good international industry practices are implemented and maintained by Eurasian, including prompt and in-depth accident and incident investigation and the implementation of the conclusions thereof. The Company will take measures to prevent any child labor or forced labor. The Company’s aim is at all times to achieve zero lost-time injuries and fatalities. 4. Development Stage Environmental and Social Management Policy Eurasian will communicate and consult with local communities and stakeholders with a view to fostering mutual understanding and shared benefits through the promotion and maintenance of open and constructive dialogue and working relationships. 39 United States vs. Foreign Sales/Assets At December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company’s assets were located in North America, Turkey, Europe, Haiti, Australia and New Zealand. 4.C. Organization Structure The corporate structure of Eurasian, its material subsidiaries (holding at least 10% of EMX’s assets), the percentage ownership that Eurasian holds or has contractual rights to acquire in such subsidiaries (if not wholly-owned) and the jurisdiction of incorporation of such corporations is set out in the chart below: EURASIAN MINERALS INC. (EMX) (British Columbia, Canada) 100% EMX (USA) Services Corp. (Nevada, USA) 100% Bullion Monarch Mining Inc. (Utah, USA) Bronco Creek Exploration, Inc. (Arizona, USA) 4.D. Property, Plant and Equipment The Company’s executive offices are located in rented premises of approximately 4,200 sq. ft., shared by seven other companies at 543 Granville Street, Suite 501, Vancouver, British Columbia Canada V6C 1X8. The Company began occupying these facilities on May 1, 2011. The Company owns a house in Littleton, Colorado which serves as the Company’s office. The Company’s royalty, exploration, and strategic investment portfolio mainly consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Haiti, Australia, New Zealand, the Russian Federation, and Chile. It is important to note that even if the Company completes its exploration programs on its properties and is successful in identifying mineral deposits, a substantial amount of capital will still have to be spent on each deposit for further drilling and engineering studies before management will know that the Company has a commercially viable mineral deposit (a reserve) on the property. The terms “measured resource”, “indicated resource” and “inferred resource” used in this report are Canadian geological and mining terms as defined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators using the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council as may be amended from time to time by the CIM. We advise U.S. investors that while such terms are recognized and permitted under Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize them. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in the measured and indicated categories will ever be converted into reserves. “Inferred resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and greater uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility.

See “Cautionary Note To United States Investors Regarding Reserve And Resource Information” Eurasian has been generating exploration projects for over thirteen years, and is now focused on entering into agreements to convert those assets into royalty interests, as well as directly acquiring new royalty properties. In this time, EMX has built a portfolio of precious metal, base metal, and polymetallic property and royalty interests that spans five continents and covers approximately 1.4 million acres. These assets provide revenue streams from royalty, advance royalty and success-based bonus payments, while maintaining continual exposure to exploration upside as projects advance. Eurasian supplements mineral property revenue streams and value creation by leveraging its technical expertise to make strategic investments in other companies or projects that provide shareholders with additional investment upside potential. Eurasian's two material properties are the Leeville royalty property located in Nevada's Northern Carlin Trend, and the Malmyzh copper-gold project which is a strategic investment located in the Russian Far East. Additional property descriptions are included in this report, but the Company does not consider that individually these properties are material at this time. Leeville and Royalty Property Overview A material EMX asset is the Leeville royalty property acquired in the 2012 Bullion Monarch merger that covers portions of Newmont Mining Corporation’s Leeville, Turf, and other underground gold mining operations and deposits in the Northern Carlin Trend. The Leeville 1% gross smelter return ("GSR") royalty paid approximately US$1.7 million during the 12 months ending December 31, 2016. The royalty totaled 1,361 troy ounces of gold that were principally sourced from the Leeville (70%) and Turf underground operations (30%), with negligible contributions from other Newmont operations. The average realized gold price was US$1,250 per troy ounce. The 2016 Leeville royalty performance represents a 33% increase in GSR revenue from 2015, corresponding to increases of 24% in attributable gold ounce production and 8% in average realized gold price. Newmont has stated that its Turf Vent Shaft Project, which was commissioned in November 2015, will provide the ventilation required to “increase production” and “unlock” additional resources at “greater Leeville” As understood by the Company, "greater Leeville" includes portions of EMX’s royalty property, and the Turf Vent Shaft Project as described by Newmont may potentially have a positive impact on the Leeville royalty. However, the Company does not have access to the information from Newmont in order to confidently assess what, if any, that impact has been or will be. Newmont has also delineated a trend of sediment-hosted gold mineralization that extends southeast from the Leeville mining 41 complex and across EMX's Leeville royalty property that covers portions of the Rita K and Full House exploration projects. These Newmont exploration successes underscore the prospectivity of the Leeville royalty property. Further Carlin Trend exploration upside is provided by EMX’s Maggie Creek South 3% NSR and Maggie Creek 2% NSR royalty properties. The Maggie Creek South royalty property was acquired in the 2012 merger with Bullion Monarch. The Maggie Creek royalty property is one of two royalties acquired from Golden Predator in the first quarter of 2016. The Maggie Creek South and Maggie Creek royalty properties collectively cover approximately 12.4 square kilometers of prospective ground within about 1.6 kilometers of Newmont’s Gold Quarry open pit mining operation. In addition to EMX’s Carlin Trend royalty properties, the Company has royalty property interests elsewhere in the western U.S., as well as in Turkey, Serbia, Haiti, Norway and Sweden including:  The Afgan 1% NSR royalty which was the second Nevada gold royalty property purchased from Golden Predator and added to the portfolio in 2016.  The Balya lead-zinc-silver royalty property in Turkey, which continued to undergo small scale underground development and stockpiling in 2016. Also in Turkey, Eurasian converted the Akarca and Sisorta exploration projects to royalty properties.  EMX’s portfolio in Serbia represents a combination of organically generated royalties complemented by a key royalty purchase that covers the Cukaru Peki copper-gold project. Cukaru Peki's high grade massive sulfide Upper Zone, which is being advanced by Nevsun Resources Ltd., had a positive PEA and updated resource announced in 2016. Nevsun states that it is "targeting" completion of a prefeasibility study and commencement of an exploration decline later in 2017.  All of EMX's interests in Haiti have been converted into NSR royalties, with the sale of joint venture interests to Newmont in 2015 for a US$4 million cash payment as well as a 0.5% NSR royalty, and the 2016 sale of the Grand Bois property to a privately held Nevada corporation in Q1 2016 for a retained a 0.5% NSR royalty interest.  In Scandinavia, Eurasian sold four exploration properties in Norway and Sweden to a privately held British Columbia corporation for a 3% NSR royalty, an equity interest, and other considerations. Also in Sweden, the Viscaria iron-copper royalty, acquired from the purchase of the Phelps Dodge Exploration Sweden AB assets in 2010, was advanced by Avalon Minerals Ltd. (“Avalon”) (ASX:AVI) with ongoing Environmental Impact Statement Assessment (“EISA”) studies and other work. In addition to the current royalty property portfolio, all of EMX’s exploration properties optioned to, or joint ventured with, third parties include a royalty option. Many of these properties also provide advance minimum royalty or advance annual royalty payments that generate an early revenue stream to EMX’s benefit during earn-in. Additional details on Eurasian’s property portfolio are included in the following sections. North America Eurasian’s portfolio in North America totals 34 exploration and royalty properties covering more than 32,000 hectares. The exploration properties are advanced through wholly-owned subsidiary Bronco Creek Exploration Inc. ("BCE"), and include porphyry copper-molybdenum, porphyry copper-gold, Carlin-type gold, and high-grade gold-silver vein projects. The portfolio is comprised of eight royalty properties, including the producing Leeville royalty (see above section), that are being advanced by partner companies and 26 exploration properties in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming. Six of the exploration properties are partnered and advancing through various option agreements. The Company’s 2016 work focused on advancing partner funded projects, executing new agreements for available projects, generative exploration, identifying royalty assets for purchase, business development, and balancing the portfolio by acquiring new properties on open ground while dropping low priority projects. Eurasian is in discussions with potential partners for the available North American properties, as well as for regional exploration alliances. 42 Maggie Creek and Maggie Creek South Royalty Properties The Maggie Creek gold property is located approximately two kilometers north-northeast of Newmont's Gold Quarry mining operations on the Carlin Trend. EMX purchased the Maggie Creek 2% NSR royalty on all precious metals and a 1% NSR royalty on all other minerals from Golden Predator in March 2016. The Maggie Creek royalty property covers over approximately 7.2 square kilometers and is controlled by Renaissance Gold Inc. Maggie Creek occurs along the northeast projection of the Gold Quarry fault zone, which is an important mineralizing control at the Gold Quarry mine. Exploration has been conducted by companies that include Newmont, Barrick, Western States, Teck, Cordex, and Freeport. Most of the historic drilling consisted of shallow, vertical holes that did not thoroughly test Carlin-type targets in the "upper plate" or "lower plate" rocks of the Roberts Mountain Allocthon. The acquisition of the Maggie Creek royalty complements EMX's Maggie Creek South 3% NSR royalty previously acquired in 2012. Maggie Creek South occurs approximately 1.5 kilometers south-southeast of Gold Quarry, and covers about 5.2 square kilometers. Maggie Creek South occurs on the southeast projection of the Good Hope fault trend, which has an alignment of deposits along its length including Mike, Tusc, Mac, and Gold Quarry, as well as the down-dip projection of favorable host rocks. Afgan Royalty Property The Afgan gold property is located about 40 kilometers northwest of Eureka, Nevada on the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend. EMX purchased the Afgan 1% NSR royalty as part of the March 2016 Golden Predator transaction that also included the Maggie Creek royalty (see above section). The Afgan unpatented lode mining claim block is controlled by McEwen Mining Inc.. The property hosts a semi-continuous, 1,050 by 450 meter, north-northwest oriented zone of oxide gold mineralization delineated by historic drilling programs and hosting a historic resource. The mineralization occurs along the contact of thinly bedded siltstones of the Webb Formation with the underlying Devils Gate Limestone, which is a well documented geologic environment that can host Carlin-type deposits. 43 Copper King Property The Copper King porphyry copper-molybdenum project is located approximately four kilometers northwest of the Resolution porphyry copper deposit in the Superior (Pioneer) mining district of Arizona. EMX executed an Option Purchase Agreement in 2013 with Desert Star Resources Ltd. ("Desert Star") whereby Desert Star could acquire a 100% interest in the project for cash, shares, and work commitments, after which EMX would retain a 2.5% NSR royalty. In the first quarter of 2016, Desert Star completed 760.17 meters of drilling in two holes spaced 450 meters apart. Neither of the holes were drilled to their target depths, and after review of the alteration zoning in the drill core, EMX believes the original target concept remains valid and untested. The holes were reclaimed in a manner that will permit future re-entry to test the porphyry targets previously identified by EMX. The project returned to 100% Eurasian control after Desert Star elected to terminate its option for the property late in Q1. Subsequently in the fourth quarter of 2016, Eurasian executed an Exploration and Option to Purchase Agreement with Kennecott Exploration Company for Copper King. Pursuant to the agreement, Kennecott can earn a 100% interest in the project by a) reimbursing the 2016 holding costs and making option payments, together totaling US$504,314, and b) completing US$4,000,000 in exploration expenditures before the fifth anniversary of the agreement. Upon exercise of the option EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty on the project which is not capped or purchasable. After exercise of the option, annual advance minimum royalty and milestone payments will be payable to Eurasian. Mineral Hill Property The Mineral Hill gold-copper project is located in the Black Hills of Wyoming, approximately 20 kilometers west of the Wharf mine in South Dakota. The project is centered on an Eocene age alkaline intrusive complex consisting of an outer ring complex, interior intrusive complex, and interior breccia zone. Historic small scale production in the project vicinity occurred between the 1870’s and 1930’s, and principally came from alluvial gold in drainages, gold and silver mineralization at the Treadwell Mine, and gold and copper mineralization near the Interocean Mine. Eurasian entered into an Exploration and Option Agreement with Coeur Explorations, Inc., a subsidiary of Coeur Inc. (“Coeur”) for Mineral Hill in Q4. The project is held under a pooling agreement with Mineral Hill L.P. (“MHL”), with all proceeds split 50:50, except the sale of surface rights associated with patented mining claims held by MHL. Coeur may earn a 100% interest in the project by a) making option payments totaling US$435,000 (US$10,000 received upon execution), b) making exploration expenditures totaling US$1,550,000 and c) paying US$250,000 upon exercise of the option, with EMX and MHL retaining a 4% NSR royalty and receiving annual advance minimum royalty payments and a milestone payment upon completion of a feasibility study. Coeur may purchase up to 1.5% of the NSR royalty for US$5,000,000 if the first increment is purchased within 60 days of the completion of a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”). Ophir Property The Ophir property is located in the northern portion of Utah's Ophir mining district, approximately 15 kilometers southwest of Rio Tinto’s Bingham Canyon mine. The Ophir district is characterized by silver-lead-zinc-copper replacement deposits and fissure veins hosted within carbonate sedimentary rocks and associated with monzonitic stocks and dikes. The property contains several small-scale historic mines with dump material characterized by mineralization similar to other historic mines in the district. The district's silver and base metals mineralization may be a distal expression of associated porphyry copper mineralization at depth. In the fourth quarter of 2016, Eurasian sold the five patented mining claims comprising the Ophir property, through its wholly owned subsidiary Bullion Monarch Mining Inc., to Kennecott Exploration Company (“Kennecott”), part of the Rio Tinto Group. EMX received US$75,000 in cash upon closing and retained a 2% NSR royalty interest from the sale. Copper Springs The Copper Springs project is located in the southern part of Arizona's Globe-Miami mining district. EMX's work and new geologic interpretations led to the recognition that the property covers a previously unrecognized porphyry trend that crosses largely untested, structurally down-dropped blocks concealed beneath younger basin fill. As a subsequent event, in February 2017, Eurasian executed an Option Agreement for Copper Springs with Anglo American Exploration (USA), Inc. (“Anglo American”). Anglo American can earn a 100% interest in the project by a) reimbursing 2016 holding and permitting costs and making annual option payments, together totaling US$447,000, and b) completing US$5,000,000 in exploration expenditures before the fifth anniversary of the agreement. Upon exercise of the option, Anglo American will pay EMX an additional US$110,000 and EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty on the project. The royalty is not capped or purchasable, except over two parcels of Arizona State Land where Anglo American can buy a 0.5% NSR royalty from EMX for US$2,000,000. After exercise of the option, annual advance minimum payments and milestone payments will be payable to EMX. 44 Superior West Property The Superior West project is located west of the historic mining town of Superior, Arizona, and adjacent to Resolution Copper’s property. The project covers several porphyry copper targets, as well as the interpreted western extension of the historic Magma Vein. EMX executed an Exploration and Option to Purchase Agreement with Kennecott for the Superior West project in 2015. Kennecott may earn a 100% interest in the project by completing US$5.5 million in exploration expenditures and making cash payments totaling US$1,149,187, after which EMX will retain a 2% NSR in addition to annual AMR and certain project milestone payments. During 2016, EMX further consolidated the project's land position, and compiled the results from partner funded geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, and geophysical survey programs. The resulting interpretations substantiated EMX's original exploration concepts, and refined the definition of priority targets. As well, work continued on permitting for a follow-up drill program. Hardshell Skarn Property The Hardshell Skarn property is located approximately 75 kilometers southeast of Tucson, Arizona within the Patagonia Mountains. The property lies between the Sunnyside porphyry copper system to the west, the Hermosa project (Arizona Minerals Inc.) to the east, and the historic Trench mine to the north. EMX has targeted base and precious metals mineralization hosted in skarn and replacement bodies within a series of Paleozoic limestones. An Exploration and Option Agreement was executed in 2015 for the Hardshell Skarn project with Arizona Minerals Inc. Arizona Minerals can earn a 100% interest in the project by making cash payments totaling US$85,000, and upon exercise of the option EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty and receive annual advanced royalty payments. The EMX royalty is not capped and not subject to buy-down. During 2016, Arizona Minerals conducted drill programs and announced updated resource estimates for the Hermosa project's Taylor deposit, which borders the Hardshell skarn claim block. Yerington West Property The Yerington West joint venture property, located in the Yerington mining district of west-central Nevada, is partnered with Entrée Gold Inc. (“Entrée”). The project comprises a porphyry copper-molybdenum target and a copper-iron skarn target beneath cover rocks. Entrée has made all required payments and both the property and agreement are in good standing. EMX has a 100% interest in the Yerington West project until Entrée completes its initial earn-in requirements. Cathedral Well Property The Cathedral Well project is located at the southern end of the Battle Mountain-Eureka gold trend and surrounds most of the historic Green Springs mine. Eurasian announced the execution of an Option Agreement with Ely Gold for the Cathedral Well property in 2014 for staged option payments and a 2.5% NSR royalty interest, inclusive of an underlying 0.5% NSR. Ely Gold completed their earn-in of the property in November of 2016 through a trade with Eurasian whereby a subsidiary of Ely Gold executed a quit claim deed for 36 mining claims adjacent to Eurasian’s Spring Canyon property in Nevada in lieu of its last US$25,000 option payment. In December 2016, Ely Gold announced it had optioned the the property to Colorado Resources Ltd. Both the property and agreement remain in good standing. Aguila de Cobre Property Aguila de Cobre is located approximately 120 kilometers west of Phoenix, Arizona in a relatively un-explored region of the Arizona porphyry copper belt. The property covers an area of shallow post-mineral cover ringed to the west by outcrops that exhibit alteration and mineralization characteristic of the margins of porphyry copper systems and developed over a broad area of >20 square kilometers. The alteration patterns vector towards the project's covered area, and highlight two distinct porphyry copper targets. EMX executed an Exploration and Option to Purchase Agreement with Kennecott for Aguila de Cobre in 2015. During Q1 2016 Kennecott completed IP and ground magnetics geophysical surveys over the property. In April of 2016, EMX received notice that Kennecott had elected to terminate its option on the property, returning it to 100% Eurasian control. The Aguila de Cobre project is now available for partnership. 45 Red Top Property The Red Top property is a porphyry copper-molybdenum project located in the Globe-Miami mining district of Arizona. EMX executed an Option Purchase Agreement in 2013 with Desert Star whereby Desert Star could acquire a 100% interest in the project for cash, shares, and work commitments, after which EMX would retain a 2.5% NSR royalty. Desert Star advanced the project with geologic and alteration mapping, geophysical studies, and drill permitting. As a subsequent event, the project returned to 100% Eurasian control after Desert Star elected to terminate its option for the property in January of 2017. The Red Top property is currently available for partnership. Other Work Conducted by Eurasian in the U.S. EMX continued evaluation of property and royalty acquisition opportunities in North America, with generative work focused on gold opportunities in the Great Basin and porphyry copper targets in Arizona and Utah. EMX acquired the following properties by staking on open ground: 1) the Spring Canyon, Mud Spring, and Trench gold projects in Nevada, 2) the Diablo Porphyry and Greenwood Springs copper projects in Arizona, and the 3) Dugway copper project in Utah. Qualified Person Dean D. Turner, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on North America. Turkey Eurasian holds mineral property interests in Turkey’s Western Anatolia and Eastern Pontides mineral belts. These properties include bulk tonnage gold, gold-silver vein, polymetallic carbonate replacement, and porphyry gold-copper targets. Eurasian announced the sale and conversion of two exploration projects in Q3 to royalty properties (Akarca and Sisorta). The cash payments received from those agreements and pending cash flow streams in future years will provide operating capital for Eurasian on an ongoing basis. Six of the seven EMX projects in Turkey are now being advanced by partner companies. Despite the political challenges faced in Turkey, EMX’s partner companies have carried out work and advanced multiple projects during the year. EMX has retained Dama Muhendislik Proje ve Maden San.Tic. A.S (“Dama”), an internationally recognized Turkish engineering company based in Ankara, to manage Eurasian's interests in Turkey. 46 Akarca Property The Akarca royalty property covers an epithermal gold-silver district located in the Western Anatolia mineral belt that was discovered by EMX in 2006. The project has six drill defined zones of gold-silver mineralization, and exploration programs at Akarca, principally funded by partners, have included 300 core and reverse circulation holes totaling ~32,800 meters, as well as property-wide geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, and geophysical surveys. In Q3, EMX sold AES Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Akarca project, to Çiftay İnşaat Taahhüt ve Ticaret A.Ş. ("Çiftay"), a privately owned Turkish company (see EMX news release dated August 8, 2016). Commercial terms of the sale provide payments to EMX as summarized below (gold payments can be as gold bullion or the cash equivalent):  US$2,000,000 cash payment to EMX upon closing of the sale (completed).     500 ounces of gold every six months commencing February 1, 2017 up to a cumulative total of 7,000 ounces of gold. As a subsequent event, the first 500 ounce cash equivalent payment of US$601,825 was made to EMX in February 2017. 7,000 ounces of gold within 30 days after the commencement of commercial production from the property provided that prior gold payments will be credited against this payment. 250 ounces of gold upon production of 100,000 ounces of gold. 250 ounces of gold upon production of an aggregate of 500,000 ounces of gold.  A sliding-scale royalty in the amount of the following percentages of production returns after certain deductions (“Royalty”):  For gold production: 1.0% on the first 100,000 ounces of gold; 2.0% on the next 400,000 ounces of gold; 3.0% on all gold production in excess of 500,000 ounces.  For all production other than gold production: 3.0%.  The Royalty is uncapped and cannot be bought out or reduced. In addition, Çiftay must conduct a drilling program of at least 3,000 meters on the property during each 12-month period commencing on August 5, 2016. Çiftay informed EMX in Q4 that it completed an initial 49 hole diamond drill program comprising 6,032 meters. Çiftay also advised it is undertaking various metallurgical and engineering studies on the property. Sisorta Property The Sisorta project, located in the Eastern Pontides mineral belt, is a near-surface, volcanic-hosted, high sulfidation epithermal gold deposit. Exploration programs at Sisorta, principally funded by partners, have included 123 diamond drill holes totaling over 17,700 meters, geologic and alteration mapping, geochemical sampling, and geophysical surveys. This work has outlined a 1000 by 600 meter zone of shallow oxide gold mineralization with underlying copper and gold porphyry potential at depth. In the third quarter of 2016, EMX sold EBX Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Sisorta property, to Bahar Madencilik Sinayi ve Ticaret Ltd Sti ("Bahar"), a privately owned Turkish company (see EMX news release dated August 3, 2016). The terms of the sale provide for Bahar's staged payments to EMX as summarized below:  US$250,000 cash payment to EMX upon closing of the sale (completed).  Annual cash payments of US$125,000 (“Advance Cash Payments”) payable on each anniversary of the closing date until commencement of commercial production.  3.5% of production returns after certain deductions (“NSR Payment") for ore mined from the property that is processed on-site (increased to 5% if the ore is processed off-site).  The Advance Cash Payments will be credited at a rate of 80% against the NSR Payment payable after commercial production commences.  The NSR Payment is uncapped and cannot be bought out or reduced. Bahar advised EMX that it concluded an initial 20 hole diamond drill program comprising 1,748 meters at Sisorta in Q4 2016. 47 Balya Property The Balya royalty property is located in the historic Balya lead-zinc-silver mining district in northwestern Turkey. EMX holds an uncapped 4% NSR royalty that it retained from the sale of the property to Dedeman Madencilik San ve Tic. A.S. ("Dedeman"), a privately owned Turkish company, in 2006. EMX understands that since acquiring the property, Dedeman has completed over 36,000 meters of diamond drilling in addition to re-initiating small scale underground development at the Hastanetepe deposit in 2015. Hastanetepe is a moderately dipping, 750 by 450 meter zone that extends from depths of 10-20 meters to 200-300 meters as multiple stacked horizons of lead-zinc-silver mineralization primarily developed along contacts between limestones and dacitic intrusions. Dedeman's development work has concentrated on an area of shallow, high grade mineralization on the northeast margin of Hastanetepe with a production shaft and two working levels at 45 and 75 meters below the surface. Dedeman advises that it produced and stockpiled approximately 16,000 tonnes of run-of-mine material averaging 6.9% Pb and 3.5% Zn during 2016. Golcuk Property The Golcuk royalty property is located in the Eastern Pontides metallogenic belt of northeast Turkey. The mineralization at Golcuk primarily occurs as stacked, stratabound horizons with disseminated copper and silver hosted in volcanic units, as well as in localized cross-cutting fault-controlled veins and stockworks of bornite, chalcopyrite and chalcocite. Pasinex Resources Ltd. (“Pasinex”) (CSE:PSE) signed an agreement in 2012 granting it an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Golcuk property for shares and work commitments over a four year period. EMX retains a 2.9% NSR royalty, which Pasinex has the option of buying down to 0.9% within six years of the agreement date for US$1 million. In the fourth quarter of 2016, Eurasian received an additional 664,483 shares of Pasinex as equivalent value for the 2016 advance royalty payment. Pasinex’s 2016 exploration programs identified additional mineralized targets on the property, and their work included permitting, as well as road and drill pad development, in preparation for a follow-up drill program in 2017. Trab-23 Property The Trab-23 property is located in northeast Turkey. The project hosts both porphyry gold (copper-molybdenum) mineralization and epithermal quartz-barite-gold veins. Tumad Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (“Tumad”), a privately owned Turkish company, executed an option agreement in February 2013 granting it an option to acquire Trab-23 from EMX. The Trab-23 agreement provided for in-ground spending requirements, a revenue stream of annual earn-in and pre-production payments, and a revenue stream based upon production. Tumad's payment and drill requirements have not been met. EMX and Tumad are currently negotiating a revision to the agreement that will include a shift of required payments and drill commitments to 2017 and 2018. Alankoy Property The Alankoy gold-copper property, located in the Biga Peninsula of northwestern Turkey, occurs in an area noted for recent discoveries characterized by alunite-rich epithermal alteration and the development of vuggy silica lithocaps. EMX's work outlined a six square kilometer area of lithocaps and quartz–alunite and argillic alteration with gold-copper mineralization as well as skam and replacement style mineralization based upon geologic mapping, rock and soil sampling, spectral analyses, ground magnetics, and historic reconnaissance drill results. Eurasian executed an Exploration and Option Agreement for Alankoy with Black Sea Copper & Gold Corp. (“Black Sea”), a privately-held British Columbia corporation, in November 2015. In 2016, Black Sea conducted surface exploration programs, and met statutory requirements to keep the property in good standing. As a subsequent event in Q1 2017, Black Sea terminated the agreement, and EMX regained 100% control of the project. Alankoy is currently available for partnership. Other Property Interests EMX has a royalty interest in the Aktutan polymetallic project sold to Dedeman in 2007 for considerations that include a 4% uncapped NSR. No progress on the project was reported by Dedeman for 2016. Qualified Person Eric P. Jensen, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Turkey. 48 Australia and New Zealand The Company's programs in the Australia and New Zealand region continued to operate at a reduced expenditure rate, while taking advantage of generative exploration opportunities with the acquisition of new projects. The Koonenberry gold project in New South Wales, Australia is being advanced by partner companies under earn-in and royalty agreements with EMX. In New Zealand, the Neavesville gold-silver project is being advanced under an agreement with Land & Minerals Ltd. ("L&M"), and the Ohakuri and Muirs Reef properties were added to the Company's exploration portfolio in 2016. Koonenberry Property The Koonenberry property hosts gold occurrences and gold geochemical anomalies coincident with prominent structural features related to the regional scale Koonenberry fault. The majority of the project is under an Exploration and Option Agreement with North Queensland Mining Pty Ltd ("NQM"), a privately held Australian company, whereby NQM can earn a 100% interest in the subsidiary that holds the EMX licenses, with EMX retaining a 3% production royalty upon earn-in. During 2016, NQM reduced the tenement position to a core of the most prospective ground, while fulfilling statutory and filing requirements to keep the property in good standing. Neavesville Property The Neavesville property consists of a single exploration permit in the Hauraki Goldfield of New Zealand's North Island. EMX acquired Neavesville, which covers a historic JORC gold-silver resource, on open ground with minimal cost. The property hosts epithermal gold-silver mineralization that has geologic features similar to other deposits of the Hauraki Goldfield. The project is under a definitive agreement with L&M, a wholly owned subsidiary of E2 Metals Ltd. (“E2”), giving L&M the right to acquire the wholly owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Neavesville property. The agreement with L&M provides for work obligations, staged payments, milestone payments based upon JORC reserves, and commercial production payments, all to the benefit of Eurasian. During 2016, L&M focused on fulfilling statutory and filing requirements to keep the license in good standing. In Q1 2017 E2 Metals filed a prospectus with the ASX exchange announcing an offering to raise a minimum of $6,000,000 AUD and their intention to list E2 Metals on the ASX Exchange. Proceeds will be used in part to fund a drilling program at Neavesville, which is slated to commence in April, 2017. 49 Ohakuri Property The Ohakuri property, located in the Taupo Volcanic Zone of New Zealand's North Island, is covered by a five year exploration license that was granted in Q1 2016. The project covers an area of historic drilling that intersected broad zones of epithermal-style gold (silver) mineralization hosted in ignimbrites and associated with quartz adularia alteration systems and weakly developed vein arrays concealed beneath a veneer of volcanic cover rocks. EMX believes that only a small portion of the prospective area has been tested, with several undrilled geophysical and geochemical anomalies providing potential for additional discoveries. The Ohakuri project is available for partnership. Muirs Reef Property The Muirs Reef property, located along the western margin of the Taupo Volcanic Zone of New Zealand's North Island, is covered by a five year exploration license that was granted in Q4 2016. The project area encompasses the Hauraki Goldfield's Muirs Reef low sulfidation vein system. Historic, small scale underground mining was carried out on a gold (silver) vein at the southern end of Muirs Reef over a strike length of ~275 meters and to ~100 meters below surface. The Muirs Reef project is available for partnership. Qualified Person Eric P. Jensen, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Australia and New Zealand. Europe Eurasian has been actively exploring in Europe since 2003, and has assembled a portfolio of copper and polymetallic royalty and exploration properties in Scandinavia, as well as a portfolio of copper and gold royalty properties in Serbia. In Scandinavia, the Company continued to operate at a reduced expenditure rate, while pursuing strategic partnerships for properties in the portfolio and adding value through low cost generative exploration. These efforts resulted in the conversion of four exploration properties to royalty and equity interests, as well as the addition of one new 100% controlled property to the exploration portfolio. EMX also has a portfolio of royalty interests in Serbia that includes the Cukaru Peki copper-gold project located in the prolific Timok Magmatic Complex. Scandinavia Scandinavia is a favorable jurisdiction for mineral exploration and development, and Eurasian has been focused on core property holdings that include the Gumsberg and Adak properties in Sweden, and the Tynset and Burfjord properties in Norway. These properties were acquired between 2013 and 2015 by license application on open ground. Each of the properties has undergone historic mining production, but with only limited or no modern exploration conducted. All of the properties have polymetallic styles of mineralization, and each shows enrichments in multiple metals. Gumsberg, Adak, and Tynset host Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (“VMS”) styles of mineralization, and Burfjord is characterized by Iron-Oxide- Copper-Gold (“IOCG”) styles of mineralization. Eurasian's new geologic interpretations identified multiple exploration targets on these properties based upon combinations of historic data compilations, geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys, and a reconnaissance drilling program. 50 In the fourth quarter of 2016, EMX executed a definitive agreement to sell the Gumsberg, Adak, Tynset and Burfjord properties to Boreal Metals Corp. (“BMC”), a British Columbia corporation. Commercial terms of the agreement with BMC, which closed on February 14, 2017 are summarized below:  At closing, Eurasian transferred to BMC its entire interest in its wholly-owned subsidiaries that owned the properties.  At closing, BMC issued to Eurasian that number of common shares of BMC that represents a 19.9% equity ownership in BMC. BMC has the continuing obligation to issue additional shares of BMC to Eurasian to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC, at no additional cost to Eurasian, until BMC has raised CDN $5,000,000 in equity. Thereafter Eurasian will have the right to participate pro-rata in future financings at its own cost to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC.  Eurasian will receive an uncapped 3% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty on each of the properties. Within five years of the closing date, BMC has the right to buy down up to 1% of the royalty on any given project by paying Eurasian US$2,500,000 in cash and shares of BMC. Such buy down is project specific.  Eurasian will receive annual advance royalty (“AAR”) payments of US$20,000 for each of the properties commencing on the second anniversary of the closing, with each AAR payment increasing by US$5,000 per year until reaching US$60,000 per year, except that BMC may forgo AAR payments on two of the four Properties in years two and three. Once reaching $60,000, AAR payments will be adjusted each year according to the Consumer Price Index (as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics).  Eurasian will receive a 0.5% NSR royalty on any new mineral exploration projects generated by BMC in Sweden or Norway, excluding projects acquired from a third party containing a mineral resource or reserve or an existing mining operation. These royalties are not capped and not subject to a buy down.  Eurasian has the right to nominate one seat on the Board of Directors of BMC. The conversion of the four properties in Sweden and Norway to royalty and equity interests marks the achievement of a major Company objective. These properties will provide near-term AAR payments, with upside provided by potential royalty revenue in the future. In addition, EMX's equity holding in a Scandinavian-focused resource company provides further upside potential for Eurasian. 51 Subsequent to the agreement with BMC, Eurasian was granted the Rydarhyttan exploration license in the Bergslagen district of southern Sweden in the fourth quarter of 2016. Riddarhyttan is known for its historic iron production, with historic operations active from medieval times through the late 1970’s. The property also contains a variety of styles of mineralization including base metal rich VMS deposits, copper and gold-rich IOCG-type deposits, and REE mineralization as identified from historic geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys, and drill programs. Rydarhyttan is 100% controlled by Eurasian and available for partnership. EMX also holds an effective 0.5% NSR royalty interest in Avalon’s Viscaria copper project located in the Kiruna mining district of northern Sweden. Upon receipt of US$12 million in royalty revenues, the royalty rate increases to a 1.0% NSR. Avalon completed a mineral resource estimate and "scoping study" based upon a combination open pit and underground scenario in 2015. During 2016, Avalon advanced the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) and permitting process for the project, while making plans for additional drilling to update the resource estimate and scoping study. Serbia EMX's royalty portfolio in Serbia initially resulted from prospect generation and organic royalty growth via the 2006 sale of its properties, including Brestovac West, to Reservoir Capital Corp., for uncapped NSR royalties of 2% for gold and silver and 1% for all other metals. Reservoir Capital Corp. later transferred those interests to Reservoir Minerals Inc. (“Reservoir”). Subsequently, Eurasian acquired 0.5% NSR royalty interests (note: the royalty percentage is subject to reduction on conditions specified in the royalty agreement) covering the Brestovac and Jasikovo-Durlan Potok properties (see EMX news release dated February 4, 2014), which along with Brestovac West, were included in the Timok Project Joint Venture with Freeport. EMX notes that a) the original Brestovac and Brestovac permits are now covered by the Brestovac Metonivca and Brestovac Zapad permits, and b) portions of a reconfigured Jasikovo-Durlan Potok permit (i.e., expanded in some areas and reduced in other areas) are not covered by the EMX royalty. Brestovac (Brestovac Metonivca) hosts epithermal and porphyry copper-gold mineralization at the Cukaru Peki project. On April 19, 2016, Reservoir announced an updated resource estimate and positive PEA results for Cukaru Peki. As reported by Reservoir, the updated resource estimate for the "Upper Zone" high grade massive sulphide and semi-massive sulphide mineralization at a 0.75% copper cut-off includes indicated resources of 1.7 million tonnes averaging 13.5% copper and 10.4 g/t gold, and inferred resources of 35.0 million tonnes averaging 2.9% copper and 1.7 g/t gold. The PEA base case considered a Phase 1 starter mine commencing in 2019, with access via a twin decline to higher grade direct shipping ore ("DSO") material, followed in 2022 by Phase 2 mining of the main Upper Zone mineralization down to the 800 meter level until 2030. An extended mining phase was also considered consisting primarily of deeper portions of the deposit, with production continuing to 2037. SRK Consulting (UK) Limited's Mr. Martin Pittuck, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, approved and verified the technical disclosure in Reservoir's April 19, 2016 news release. As another development, on April 24, 2016, Reservoir announced a definitive agreement with Nevsun Resources Ltd. ("Nevsun") to combine their respective companies. Completion of the arrangement was conditional on the exercise by Reservoir of its right of first offer ("ROFO") in respect of the original Timok Joint Venture agreement with Freeport. On May 52 2, 2016 Reservoir and Nevsun reported that the ROFO was successfully exercised, with Reservoir acquiring Freeport's interest in the Upper Zone of Cukaru Peki, and increasing its interest in the Lower Zone. Nevsun subsequently closed the acquisition of Reservoir as announced June 23, 2016. On September 29, 2016, Nevsun reported that it had commenced drilling programs on the Upper Zone resource deposit and Lower Zone porphyry target. According to Nevsun, it is targeting completion of a prefeasibility study in September 2017, as well as the commencement of an exploration decline in Q4 2017. Nevsun has budgeted US $35-40 million for Upper Zone work through 2017, and estimated expenditures of US $20 million for the Lower Zone program. Nevsun reported encouraging drill results from both the Upper Zone and Lower Zone on October 17, November 22, and December 7, 2016. EMX's Timok royalty properties add significant upside potential for Eurasian in one of Europe's richest copper-gold mineral belts. Qualified Person Eric P. Jensen, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Europe. Haiti Eurasian and Newmont Ventures Limited (collectively, the “JV” or "Joint Venture"), had been exploring a land position along a 130 kilometer trend of Haiti’s Massif du Nord mineral belt since 2008, with Newmont funding and managing the Joint Venture. EMX’s 100% controlled Grand Bois gold-copper project was not subject to the JV with Newmont. In 2013 the Haitian government suspended its Mining Convention process while it began working on a new mining law, which as Eurasian understands was an ongoing process during 2016. EMX sold its Haiti Joint Venture interests in 2015 to Newmont. The now terminated EMX-Newmont Joint Ventures covered six designated exploration areas in Haiti. Pursuant to the transaction, Newmont acquired all of EMX's interest in the designated exploration areas on the following terms: a) Newmont paid US$4 million in cash to EMX at closing, b) the Joint Ventures were terminated, c) EMX retained a 0.5% NSR royalty on the 49 Research Permit applications covering the designated exploration areas, and d) EMX retains the right to acquire any properties proposed to be abandoned or surrendered by Newmont. In the first quarter of 2016, EMX sold its 100% controlled Grand Bois project, which was outside the Joint Venture with Newmont, to a privately held Nevada corporation. EMX retained a 0.5% NSR royalty interest in the Grand Bois project and the right to acquire any properties proposed to be abandoned or surrendered from the Grand Bois project in the future. As a result of the above two transactions, all of EMX's interests in Haiti have now been converted into NSR royalties. 53 Qualified Person Dean D. Turner, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Haiti. Strategic Investments IG Copper LLC EMX is a strategic investor in IGC, a privately held company that is in a joint venture with Freeport on the Malmyzh copper- gold porphyry project in Far East Russia. IGC has a 51% ownership interest in the Malmyzh joint venture, with Freeport retaining a 49% interest. IGC is operating and managing the project. The Shelekhovo and Salasinskaya properties, located ~150 kilometers northeast of Malmyzh, are 100% controlled by IGC and not subject to the joint venture with Freeport. Eurasian was an early investor in IGC, and is its largest shareholder, with approximately 39% of the issued and outstanding shares (36% equity position on a fully-diluted basis) from investments totaling US$9 million. EMX's investment in IGC and the Malmyzh project is material to the Company. Malmyzh Project Malmyzh is a grassroots, district-scale discovery with over 14 porphyry copper-gold centers identified within a 16 by 5 kilometer intrusive corridor. The project, which occurs 220 kilometers northeast of the Russia-China border at Khabarovsk, has excellent logistical characteristics and available infrastructure, including high voltage power lines, a natural gas pipeline, a paved national highway, the Amur River, and a rail line that are all nearby to the property. The property’s 152.8 square kilometers (15,280 hectares) of exploration and mining licenses consist of: 1) HAB 02018 granted 9/18/2006 and expiring 12/31/2026, and 2) HAB 02334 granted 7/23/2010 and expiring 12/31/2030. The more recent "Malmyzh Flanks" exploration license (HAB 02746 BP) was granted 10/26/2015, expires 12/31/2022, and covers 74.1 square kilometers (7,410 hectares). The total Malmyzh land position totals 226.9 square kilometers (22,690 hectares), and includes additional areas for potential project development as well as extensions to known exploration targets. IGC advises that the terms for the licenses can be granted extensions. Copper-gold mineralization occurs in diorite porphyry intrusives, as well as in hornfels-altered and stockworked sedimentary wall rocks, and consists of near-surface zones (i.e., within 1 to 50 meters of the surface) of variable chalcocite enrichment grading into chalcopyrite-rich and chalcopyrite-bornite-magnetite mineralization to depth. The extent of the porphyry copper- gold mineralized systems has not been fully determined within the Malmyzh district. Much of the property has more than 15 meters of cover and is undrilled, thereby providing exploration potential for additional discoveries. 54 In 2015, a statement of inferred resources for Malmyzh's Valley, Central, Freedom (Southeast), and Flats deposits under NI 43-101 and CIM definition standards was provided by Phil Newall, PhD, BSc, CEng, FIMMM, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101 and managing director of Wardell Armstrong International ("WAI"), an independent UK based consulting company. The open pit constrained inferred resources at a 0.30% copper equivalent cut-off are 1,661 million tonnes at average grades of 0.34% copper and 0.17 g/t gold, or 0.42% copper-equivalent, containing 5.65 million tonnes (12.45 billion pounds) copper and 9.11 million ounces gold, or 7.06 million tonnes (15.56 billion pounds) copper-equivalent. Copper equivalent (CuEq) was calculated as Cu% + (Au g/t * 0.5) based on assumed prices of $3.25/lb Cu and $1400/oz Au, with recoveries of 90% for Cu and 70% for Au. At the time of WAI's 2015 resource estimate, project drilling totaled about 70,500 meters in over 211 core holes, with the majority of the drilling (~55,000 m) concentrated on defining the four resource deposits at nominal 200 by 200 meter centers, and generally to less than 500 meters depth. See EMX's May 26, 2015 news release and SEDAR filed technical report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the Malmyzh Copper-Gold Project, Khabarovsk Krai, Russian Federation" with an effective date of May 1, 2015 and dated July 10, 2015 for more information on the exploration results, QA/QC procedures, and methodology used to estimate the Malmyzh inferred resources. The copper-gold mineralization in the Valley, Central, Freedom (Southeast), and Flats resource deposits have favorable open- pit geometries with potentially low stripping ratios. All four resource deposits are open at depth (> 350-600 m), and importantly, there are zones of shallow, higher grade copper-gold mineralization at the Valley and Freedom (SE) deposits, and high grade below the resource pit at Central. Furthermore, there is higher grade copper-gold mineralization at the Freedom Northwest prospect not currently included in the Malmyzh inferred resource estimate due to the need for in-fill drilling. IGC advised that the Malmyzh joint venture had also advanced Malmyzh in 2015 by receiving approval of the “official on balance C1+C2 reserves” from the GKZ (State Reserves Committee), the government agency authorized to approve resources and reserves in the Russian Federation. The Malmyzh “official government approved reserves” were estimated according to the rules and regulations of the Russian Federation, and are not the same as reserves under NI 43-101. The GKZ “official reserves” have been listed and added to the “State Balance of Reserves”. In addition, IGC advised that the “prospecting phase” of the Malmyzh exploration and mining licenses were successfully completed. The joint venture subsequently filed documents to continue to the advanced exploration and mining phase of the project's development as required for “strategically significant” deposits according to Russian law (i.e., the Law on Foreign Investments in Strategic Industries, also termed the Strategic Industries Law or "SIL"). In Q3 2016 IGC advised that SIL approval to advance the Malmyzh project had been received from the Government Commission on Monitoring Foreign Investment (the "Commission"). According to IGC, highlights of the Commission's approval include:  The Joint Venture, as a majority foreign owned business entity, has been approved to retain control of the Malmyzh project exploration and mining licenses.  The Joint Venture, therefore, maintains mining and production rights for the Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses.  The Joint Venture holds 100% of the rights for the Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses, and is entitled to recover all minerals of economic value including copper, gold and by-product minerals. The conclusion of the SIL process initiated a new, multi-year phase in the project's development. The Malmyzh team prepared a “Project Plan” document that outlined advanced plans and programs that include additional technical work (i.e., drilling, exploration, metallurgy, engineering, and hydrology), as well as environmental, social, and economic assessments. This next phase of work will ultimately conclude as a detailed "TEO of Permanent Conditions" report, which is considered to be a precursor to commencement of exploitation and mining (TEO is the acronym for "Technico-Economicheskiye Obosnovaniye" which translates as Technical-Economic Basis). Subsequently in Q4, IGC commenced a reconnaissance diamond drilling program at the Freedom Northwest, North, Sleeper West, and Sleeper prospects totaling ten holes for 3,474.8 meters. As a subsequent event, final assays were received from IGC in January 2017, and Eurasian announced the results in a January 24th news release. The last hole of the program (AMM-213) drilled at Freedom Northwest provided particularly notable results, intersecting 747.4 meters (108.7-856.1 m) averaging 0.49% copper equivalent (0.41% copper and 0.17 g/t gold) (true width unknown). AMM-213 was a vertical in-fill hole designed to bring the 200 by 400 meter grid pattern at Freedom Northwest, which is not currently included as a Malmyzh resource deposit, to the 200 by 200 meter pattern used to delineate inferred resources. The 747.4 meter intercept is the longest mineralized interval drilled at Malmyzh to date. Further, the hole was terminated due to equipment limitations, and bottomed in mineralization (1.4 m interval from 854.7-856.1 m of 0.46% copper equivalent from 0.32% copper and 0.29 g/t gold). The drilling at Sleeper West and North prospects also returned encouraging results. 55 Eurasian is an investor in IGC, and as a result there are no direct holding costs to the Company, and no underlying agreements or royalties. Notwithstanding, IGC advises that the required payments to keep the Malmyzh property in good standing are nominal, consisting of "subsoil usage license fees" that total approximately US$30,000 to US$50,000 per year. Regarding the joint venture agreement, IGC and FMEC fund at their respective level of ownership interest, or dilute. Should either company dilute to less than a 10% interest, remaining ownership is converted to a US$0.005 (one-half cent) per pound copper equivalent reserve payment, which remains in effect through the life of mine. Freeport retains no claw-back or NSR provisions. Shelekhovo and Salasinskaya Projects IGC also has 100% control of the 390 square kilometer Shelekhovo property (also known as Shelekhovskaya), and the nearby 260 square kilometer Salasinskaya property. At Shelekhovo, historic government exploration surveys identified multiple occurrences of gold, silver, and copper associated with quartz veining and alunite. Salasinskaya is considered to be the northern extension of the Shelekhovo anomaly cluster, and is marked by the widespread occurrence of quartz-alunite alteration. Both properties occur approximately 150 kilometers along trend to the northeast of Malmyzh. IGC advised that it conducted reconnaissance field mapping and geochemical sampling at Shelekhovo and Salasinskaya during 2016. Further discussion of IGC’s exploration results and EMX’s due diligence data verification and QA and QC procedures can be found in the Company’s May 26, 2015 and January 24, 2017 news releases, as well as in the SEDAR filed Malmyzh Technical Report with an effective date of May 1, 2015. Revelo Resources Corp. EMX has a strategic investment in Revelo Resources Corp. ("Revelo") (TSX-V:RVL), a company focused on the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the prolific metallogenic belts of northern Chile. Revelo has a portfolio of 22 projects prospective for copper, gold and silver. Revelo also retains a 2% royalty interest in the Victoria Project, an important copper-gold-silver exploration project in northern Chile. Qualified Person Dean D. Turner, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Strategic Investments. Geothermal Royalties EMX initiated a geothermal energy program in 2010, and acquired assets in Slovakia and Peru. Eurasian subsequently sold its geothermal assets in 2013 to Starlight Geothermal Ltd. ("SGL") for cash payments, an equity position in SGL, and gross royalties of 1.0% in Slovakia and 0.5% in Peru from future geothermal energy production. The Company is not aware of any changes to its Slovakia and Peru geothermal royalty property holdings in 2016. 56 ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS Years Ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 GENERAL This discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations is prepared as at March 27, 2017 and should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 and the related notes thereto. Those consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). Eurasian Minerals Inc. and its subsidiaries operate as a royalty and prospect generator engaged in exploring for, and generating royalties from, metals and minerals properties. The Company’s royalty and exploration portfolio mainly consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company’s common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) and the NYSE MKT under the symbol “EMX”. The Company’s head office is located at 501 - 543 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1X8. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using IFRS applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets, discharge its liabilities and continue in operation for the following twelve months. The Company’s working capital position at December 31, 2016 was $6,002,318. Management estimates it has sufficient funding for operations for the ensuing year as of the date of this Form 20-F, which results in the going concern assumption being an appropriate underlying concept for the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. Some of the Company’s activities for exploration and evaluation assets are located in emerging nations and, consequently, may be subject to a higher level of risk compared to other developed countries. Operations, the status of mineral property rights and the recoverability of investments in emerging nations can be affected by changing economic, legal, regulatory and political situations. At the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not identified a known body of commercial grade mineral on any of its exploration and evaluation assets. The ability of the Company to realize the costs it has incurred to date on these exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the Company identifying a commercial mineral body, to finance its development costs and to resolve any environmental, regulatory or other constraints which may hinder the successful development of the exploration and evaluation assets. These consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted, which is the functional currency of the parent company and its subsidiaries except as to Bullion Monarch, the holder of a royalty income stream whose functional currency is the United States dollar. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Eurasian is a Tier 1 company that trades on the TSX Venture and the NYSE MKT exchanges. It is principally in the business of exploring for, and generating royalties from, metals and minerals properties. The Company’s royalty and exploration portfolio mainly consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Haiti, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company started receiving royalty income as of August 17, 2012 when it acquired Bullion Monarch Mining, Inc. (“Bullion” or “BULM”). This royalty cash flow helps to provide a foundation for supporting the Company’s growth over the long term. Eurasian operates as a royalty and prospect generator. Under the royalty and prospect generation business model, EMX acquires and advances early-stage mineral exploration projects and then forms partnerships with other parties for a retained royalty interest, as well as annual advanced royalty and other cash or share payments. Through its various agreements, Eurasian also provides technical and commercial assistance to partner companies as the projects are advanced. By optioning interests in its projects to third parties for a royalty interest, Eurasian a) reduces its exposure to the costs and risks associated with mineral exploration and project development, while b) maintaining the opportunity to participate in early-stage exploration upside, and c) developing a pipeline for potential production royalty payments and associated "brownfields" discoveries in the future. This approach helps preserve the Company’s treasury, which can be utilized for project acquisitions and other business objectives. 57 Strategic investments are an important complement to the Company’s royalty and prospect generation initiatives. These investments are made in under-valued exploration companies identified by Eurasian. EMX helps to develop the value of these assets, with exit strategies that can include royalty positions or equity sales. EXPLORATION REVIEW PROPERTY OVERVIEW LEEVILLE & OTHER CARLIN TREND ROYALTY PROPERTIES A material EMX asset is the Leeville royalty property acquired in the 2012 Bullion Monarch merger that covers portions of Newmont Mining Corporation’s Leeville, Turf, and other gold mining operations and deposits in the Northern Carlin Trend. The Leeville 1% gross smelter return royalty paid approximately US$1.7 million during the 12 months ending December 31, 2016. The royalty totaled 1,361 troy ounces of gold that were principally sourced from the Leeville (70%) and Turf mines (30%), with negligible contributions from other Newmont operations. The average realized gold price was US$1,250 per troy ounce. The 2016 Leeville royalty performance represents a 33% increase in GSR revenue from 2015, corresponding to increases of 24% in attributable gold ounce production and 8% in average gold price. Newmont has stated that its Turf Vent Shaft Project, which was commissioned in November 2015, will provide the ventilation required to “increase production” and “unlock” additional resources at “greater Leeville” (see Newmont Mining Corp’s 10-K and 10-Q filings for 2014 and 2015). As understood by the Company, "greater Leeville" includes portions of EMX’s royalty property, and the Turf Vent Shaft Project as described by Newmont may potentially have a positive impact on the Leeville royalty. However, the Company does not have access to the information from Newmont in order to confidently assess what, if any, that impact has been, or will be. Newmont has also delineated a trend of sediment-hosted gold mineralization that extends southeast from the Leeville mining complex and across EMX's Leeville royalty property that covers portions of the Rita K and Full House exploration projects. These Newmont exploration successes underscore the prospectivity of the Leeville royalty property. Further Carlin Trend exploration upside is provided by EMX’s Maggie Creek South 3% NSR and Maggie Creek 2% NSR royalty properties. The Maggie Creek South royalty property was acquired in the 2012 merger with Bullion Monarch. The Maggie Creek royalty property is one of two royalties acquired from Golden Predator in Q1 2016. The Maggie Creek South and Maggie Creek royalty properties collectively cover approximately 12.4 square kilometers of prospective ground within about 1.6 kilometers of Newmont’s Gold Quarry open pit mining operation. NORTH AMERICA Eurasian’s portfolio in North America totals 34 exploration and royalty properties covering more than 32,000 hectares. The properties are advanced through wholly-owned subsidiary Bronco Creek Exploration Inc., and include porphyry copper- molybdenum, porphyry copper-gold, Carlin-type gold, and high-grade gold-silver vein projects. The exploration portfolio is comprised of 26 properties in Arizona, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming. EMX currently has six exploration projects partnered through BCE, with the remaining 20 exploration properties available for partnership. In addition, there are eight royalty properties, including the producing Leeville royalty (see above section), that are being advanced by partner companies. The Company’s 2016 work focused on a) advancing partner funded projects at Superior West, Copper King, and Aguila de Cobre, b) executing new agreements for available projects, c) generative exploration, d) identifying royalty assets for purchase, and e) balancing the portfolio by acquiring new properties on open ground while dropping low priority projects. Eurasian is in discussions with potential partners for the available North American properties, as well as for regional exploration alliances. A summary of 2016 activities is given below.  The Company executed a purchase agreement for NSR royalty interests on the Maggie Creek (2% NSR on precious metals and 1% NSR royalty on all other minerals) and Afgan (1% NSR royalty) gold properties from Golden Predator. Eurasian acquired the royalties by issuing 250,000 EMX shares to Golden Predator as consideration for the purchase. The Maggie Creek property is located north-northeast of Newmont's Gold Quarry open pit operations on the Carlin Trend, and the Afgan property occurs on the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend. The addition of these two royalty assets strengthens EMX's growing Nevada gold portfolio.  EMX executed an Exploration and Option to Purchase Agreement with Kennecott for the Copper King project in Arizona. Pursuant to the agreement, Kennecott can earn a 100% interest in the project by a) reimbursing the 2016 holding costs and making option payments, together totaling US$504,314, and b) completing US$4,000,000 in exploration expenditures before the fifth anniversary of the Agreement. Upon exercise of the option EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty on the project which is not capped or purchasable. After exercise of the option, annual advance minimum royalty and milestone payments will be payable to Eurasian. 58  Eurasian entered into an Exploration and Option Agreement with Coeur for the Mineral Hill gold-copper property in the Black Hills of Wyoming. The project is held under a pooling agreement with Mineral Hill L.P. (“MHL”), with all proceeds split 50:50, except the sale of surface rights associated with patented mining claims held by MHL. Coeur may earn a 100% interest in the project by making option payments totaling US$435,000, making exploration expenditures totaling US$1,550,000, and paying US$250,000 upon exercise of the option, with EMX and MHL retaining a 4% NSR royalty, and annual advance minimum royalty payments of US$150,000 and a US$1,000,000 milestone payment upon completion of a feasibility study. Coeur may purchase up to 1.5% of the NSR royalty for US$5,000,000 if the first increment is purchased within 60 days of the completion of a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”).  Eurasian sold the five patented mining claims comprising the Ophir property in Utah, through its wholly owned subsidiary Bullion Monarch Mining Inc., to Kennecott. EMX received US$75,000 in cash upon closing and a retained 2% NSR royalty from the sale.  As a subsequent event in February 2017, Eurasian executed an Option Agreement for the Copper Springs porphyry copper project in Arizona with Anglo American, whereby Anglo American can earn a 100% interest in the project by a) reimbursing the 2016 holding and permitting costs and making annual option payments, together totaling US$447,000, and b) completing US$5,000,000 in exploration expenditures before the fifth anniversary of the agreement. Upon exercise of the option, Anglo American will pay EMX an additional US$110,000 and EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty on the project. After exercise of the option, annual advance minimum payments and milestone payments will be due to EMX.  The Superior West copper-molybdenum project near Superior, Arizona is under an Exploration and Option to Purchase Agreement with Kennecott whereby Kennecott may earn a 100% interest in the project by completing US$5.5 million in exploration expenditures and making cash payments totaling US$1,149,187, after which EMX will retain a 2% NSR in addition to receiving AMR and certain project milestone payments. During 2016, EMX further consolidated the project's land position, and compiled the results from partner funded geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, and geophysical survey programs. The resulting interpretations refined the definition of priority targets for drill testing.  The Hardshell Skarn property in southern Arizona is covered by an Exploration and Option Agreement with Arizona Minerals whereby Arizona Minerals can earn a 100% interest in the project by making cash payments totaling US$85,000, and upon exercise of the option EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty and receive annual advanced royalty payments. The EMX royalty is not capped and not subject to buy-down. During 2016, Arizona Minerals conducted drill programs and announced updated resource estimates for the Hermosa project's Taylor deposit, which borders the Hardshell skarn claim block.  The Yerington West joint venture property, located in the Yerington mining district of west-central Nevada, is partnered with Entrée Gold Inc. The project hosts porphyry copper-molybdenum and copper-iron skarn targets beneath cover rocks. Entree continues to hold the property and make annual payments to EMX while advancing its Ann Mason project. EMX has a 100% interest in the Yerington West project until Entrée completes its initial earn-in requirements.  Ely Gold completed their earn-in at the Cathedral Well property in November of 2016 through a trade with Eurasian whereby a subsidiary of Ely Gold executed a quit claim deed for 36 mining claims adjacent to Eurasian’s Spring Canyon property in Nevada in lieu of its last $25,000 option payment. EMX retains a 2.5% NSR royalty interest on Cathedral Well, inclusive of an underlying 0.5% NSR, and Ely Gold will retain a 0.5% NSR on the traded property. In December 2016, Ely Gold announced that it had optioned the project to Colorado Resources Ltd. Both the property and agreement remain in good standing.  Kennecott elected to terminate the option agreement for the Aguila de Cobre copper project in Arizona in Q1. Kennecott advanced the project by funding geophysical surveys and expanding the property package through the staking of additional claims. Aguila de Cobre is available for partnership.  Desert Star elected to terminate the option agreement for the Red Top copper-molybdenum project in Arizona in Q1. Desert Star advanced the project by conducting geologic and alteration mapping, geophysical studies, and drill permitting. Red Top is available for partnership.  EMX continued evaluation of property and royalty acquisition opportunities in North America, with generative work focused on gold opportunities in the Great Basin and porphyry copper targets in Arizona and Utah. EMX acquired the following properties by staking on open ground: 1) the Spring Canyon, Mud Spring, and Trench gold projects in Nevada, 2) the Diablo Porphyry and Greenwood Springs copper projects in Arizona, and the 3) Dugway copper project in Utah. EMX is encouraged by the new agreements executed with major mining companies on its copper portfolio as well as the funding committed to advance all of its partnered projects. The Company continues to receive interest from third parties in the available copper and gold properties, as well as in the new opportunities identified by generative exploration initiatives. 59 Qualified Person Dean D. Turner, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on North America. TURKEY Eurasian holds mineral property interests in Turkey’s Western Anatolia and Eastern Pontides mineral belts. These properties include bulk tonnage gold, gold-silver vein, polymetallic carbonate replacement, and porphyry gold-copper targets. Six of the seven EMX projects in Turkey are being advanced by partner companies. The remaining property, Alankoy, is 100% controlled by Eurasian and currently available for sale or partnership. Akarca Property The Akarca Property is a 2006 Eurasian grassroots exploration discovery in Turkey’s Western Anatolia region. The project area has six drill defined zones of epithermal gold-silver oxide mineralization. Further, there are several additional mineralized zones identified from reconnaissance level drilling and surface sampling. In Q3 2016, EMX sold AES Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Akarca project, to Çiftay İnşaat Taahhüt ve Ticaret A.Ş., a privately owned Turkish company (see EMX news release dated August 8, 2016). EMX received a US$2 million cash payment from Çiftay on closing. As part of the sale, EMX is to receive payments of 500 ounces of gold (or cash equivalent) every six months commencing on February 1, 2017, and continuing until receipt of a total of 7,000 ounces. As a subsequent event, the first 500 ounce cash equivalent payment of US$601,825 was made to EMX in February 2017. Receipt of the initial 500 ounce payment leaves a total of 6,500 ounces of gold to be paid to EMX. Çiftay will pay any remaining amount due within 30 days after the commencement of commercial production from the property, if the total 7,000 ounces has not yet been paid at that time. Additional terms of the sale include a sliding scale royalty for gold production (subject to certain deductions): a) 1.0% on the first 100,000 ounces of gold, b) 2.0% on the next 400,000 ounces of gold, and c) 3.0% on all gold production in excess of 500,000 ounces. For all other mineral production other than gold, the royalty rate is 3.0%. Certain bonuses will also be paid upon achievement of production milestones. Çiftay informed EMX that it completed an initial 49 hole diamond drill program comprising 6,032 meters on the property in Q4 2016. Sisorta Property The Sisorta project, located in the Eastern Pontides mineral belt, is a near-surface, volcanic-hosted, high sulfidation epithermal gold deposit. In Q3 2016, EMX sold EBX Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Sisorta Property, to Bahar Madencilik Sinayi ve Ticaret Ltd Sti, a privately owned Turkish company (see EMX news release dated August 3, 2016). The terms of the sale included a) a US$250,000 cash payment at closing, b) annual cash payments of US$125,000 per year until commencement of production (credited at a rate of 80% against NSR royalty payments upon production), and c) a 3.5% NSR royalty payment from ore processed on-site and a 5.0% NSR royalty payment from ore processed off-site. The NSR royalty payments are uncapped and cannot be bought out or reduced. Bahar advised EMX that it concluded an initial 20 hole diamond drill program comprising 1,748 meters at Sisorta in Q4 2016. Balya Property The Balya royalty property is located in the historic Balya lead-zinc-silver mining district in northwestern Turkey. EMX holds an uncapped 4% NSR royalty that it retained from the sale of the property to private Turkish mining company Dedeman Madencilik San ve Tic. A.S. in 2006. EMX understands that since acquiring the property, Dedeman has completed over 36,000 meters of diamond drilling in addition to re-initiating underground development at the Hastanetepe deposit in Q1 2015. Dedeman advises that it produced and stockpiled approximately16,000 tonnes of run-of-mine material averaging 6.9% Pb and 3.5% Zn during 2016. 60 Other Property Interests Eurasian's other property interests in Turkey include:  The Golcuk copper-silver property is located in northeast Turkey. Pasinex Resources Ltd. signed an agreement in 2012 granting it an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Golcuk property for shares and work commitments, with EMX retaining a 2.9% NSR royalty interest. Pasinex’s exploration programs have identified a number of additional mineralized targets on the property, and their work in 2016 included permitting and preparations for follow-up drilling scheduled for 2017.  The Trab-23 property hosts both porphyry gold (copper-molybdenum) mineralization and epithermal quartz-barite- gold veins. Tumad Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S., a privately owned Turkish company, executed an option agreement in 2013 granting it an option to acquire Trab-23 for in-ground spending requirements, annual earn-in and pre-production payments, and payments based upon production. Tumad's payment and drill requirements have not been met. EMX and Tumad are currently negotiating a revision to the agreement that will include a shift of required payments and drill commitments to 2017 and 2018.  The Alankoy gold-copper property is located in the Biga Peninsula of northwestern Turkey. EMX executed an Exploration and Option Agreement for Alankoy with Black Sea in November 2015. In 2016, Black Sea conducted surface exploration programs, and met statutory requirements to keep the property in good standing. As a subsequent event in Q1 2017, Black Sea terminated the Agreement, and EMX regained 100% control of the project.  EMX owns a 4% uncapped NSR royalty interest in the Aktutan polymetallic project that it sold to Dedeman in 2007. No work was reported by Dedeman for 2016. Qualified Person Eric P. Jensen, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Turkey. AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND The Company's programs in the Australia and New Zealand region continued to operate at a reduced expenditure rate, while taking advantage of generative exploration opportunities with the acquisition of new projects. The Koonenberry gold project in New South Wales, Australia is being advanced by partner companies under earn-in and royalty agreements with EMX. In New Zealand, the Neavesville gold-silver project is being advanced under an agreement with Land & Minerals Ltd. (“L&M”), and the Ohakuri and Muirs Reef properties were added to the Company's exploration portfolio. Koonenberry Property The Koonenberry property hosts gold occurrences and gold geochemical anomalies coincident with prominent structural features related to the regional scale Koonenberry fault. The majority of the project is under an Exploration and Option Agreement with North Queensland Mining Pty Ltd ("NQM"), a privately held Australian company, whereby NQM can earn a 100% interest in the subsidiary that holds the EMX licenses, with EMX retaining a 3% production royalty upon earn-in. During 2016, NQM reduced the tenement position to a core of the most prospective ground, while fulfilling statutory and filing requirements to keep the property in good standing. Neavesville Property The Neavesville project consists of a single exploration permit in the Hauraki Goldfield of New Zealand's North Island. EMX acquired Neavesville, which covers a historic JORC gold-silver resource, on open ground with minimal cost. The property hosts epithermal gold-silver mineralization that has geologic features similar to other deposits of the Hauraki Goldfield. The project is under a definitive agreement with L&M, a wholly owned subsidiary of E2 Metals Ltd., giving L&M the right to acquire the wholly owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Neavesville property. The agreement with L&M provides for work obligations, staged payments, milestone payments based upon JORC reserves, and commercial production payments, all to the benefit of Eurasian. During 2016, L&M focused on fulfilling statutory and filing requirements to keep the license in good standing. In Q1 2017 E2 Metals filed a prospectus with the ASX exchange announcing an offering to raise a minimum of $6,000,000 AUD and their intention to list E2 Metals on the ASX Exchange. Proceeds will be used in part to fund a drilling program at Neavesville, which is slated to commence in April, 2017. 61 Ohakuri and Muirs Reef Properties Eurasian's generative exploration program resulted in the acquisition of the Ohakuri and Muirs Reef properties in 2016 by tenement applications on open ground. Both properties are covered by five year exploration licenses. Ohakuri covers an area of historic drilling that intersected broad zones of epithermal-style gold (silver) mineralization hosted in ignimbrites and associated with quartz adularia alteration systems and weakly developed vein arrays concealed beneath a veneer of volcanic cover rocks. The Muirs Reef project contains a low sulfidation gold (silver) vein system that has undergone historic, small scale underground mining. The Ohakuri and Muirs Reef projects are available for partnership. Qualified Person Eric P. Jensen, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Australia and New Zealand. EUROPE Eurasian has been actively exploring in Europe since 2003, and has assembled a portfolio of copper and polymetallic royalty and exploration properties in Scandinavia, as well as a portfolio of copper-gold royalty properties in Serbia. In Sweden and Norway, the Company continued to operate at a reduced expenditure rate, while pursuing strategic partnerships for properties in the portfolio and adding value through low cost generative exploration. These efforts resulted in the conversion of four exploration properties to royalty and equity interests, as well as the addition of one new 100% controlled property to the portfolio. EMX also has royalty interests in Serbia that includes the Cukaru Peki copper-gold project. Scandinavia Eurasian has been focused on its core property holdings in Scandinavia that include the Gumsberg and Adak properties in Sweden and the Tynset and Burfjord properties in Norway. These properties were acquired between 2013 and 2015 by license application on open ground. Each of the properties has undergone historic small scale mining production, but with only limited or no modern exploration conducted. All of the properties have polymetallic styles of mineralization, and each shows enrichments in multiple metals. Gumsberg, Adak, and Tynset host Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (“VMS”) styles of mineralization, and Burfjord is characterized by Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold (“IOCG”) styles of mineralization. Eurasian's exploration programs and new geologic interpretations identified exploration upside at multiple targets on these properties (see EMX news release dated September 8, 2016). In Q4 2016 EMX executed a definitive agreement to sell the Gumsberg, Adak, Tynset and Burfjord properties to Boreal Metals Corp., a British Columbia corporation (“BMC”) (see EMX news release dated November 22, 2016 ). Commercial terms of the agreement with BMC, which closed in February 2017 as a subsequent event, are summarized as: a) At closing, Eurasian transferred to BMC its interest in its wholly-owned subsidiaries that owned the properties, and BMC issued to Eurasian that number of common shares of BMC that represents a 19.9% equity ownership in BMC. BMC has the continuing obligation to issue additional shares of BMC to Eurasian to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC, at no additional cost to Eurasian, until BMC has raised CDN $5,000,000 in equity. Thereafter Eurasian will have the right to participate pro-rata in future financings at its own cost to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC; b) Eurasian will receive an uncapped 3% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty on each of the properties. Within five years of the closing date, BMC has the right to buy down up to 1% of the royalty on any given project by paying Eurasian US$2,500,000 in cash and shares of BMC. Such buy down is project specific. c) Eurasian will receive annual advance royalty (“AAR”) payments of US$20,000 for each of the properties commencing on the second anniversary of the closing, with each AAR payment increasing by US$5,000 per year until reaching US$60,000 per year, except that BMC may forgo AAR payments on two of the four properties in years two and three. Once reaching US$60,000, AAR payments will be adjusted each year according to the Consumer Price Index (as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics); d) Eurasian will receive a 0.5% NSR royalty on any new mineral exploration projects generated by BMC in Sweden or Norway, excluding projects acquired from a third party containing a mineral resource or reserve or an existing mining operation. These royalties are not capped and not subject to a buy down.; and e) Eurasian has have the right to nominate one seat on the Board of Directors of BMC. The conversion of the four properties in Sweden and Norway to royalty and equity interests marks the achievement of a major Company objective. Subsequent to the agreement with BMC, Eurasian was granted the Rydarhyttan exploration license in the Bergslagen district of southern Sweden. Rydarhyttan is 100% controlled by Eurasian and is available for partnership. 62 EMX also holds an effective 0.5% NSR royalty interest in Avalon’s Viscaria copper project located in the Kiruna mining district of northern Sweden. Upon receipt of US$12 million in royalty revenues, the royalty rate increases to a 1.0% NSR. Avalon completed an updated mineral resource estimate and "scoping study" based upon a combination open pit and underground scenario in 2015. During 2016, Avalon advanced the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) and permitting process for the project, while making plans for additional drilling to update the resource estimate and scoping Serbia EMX's royalty portfolio in Serbia initially resulted from prospect generation and organic royalty growth via the 2006 sale of its properties, including Brestovac West, to Reservoir Capital Corp., for uncapped NSR royalties of 2% for gold and silver and 1% for all other metals. Reservoir Capital Corp. later transferred those interests to Reservoir Minerals Inc. (“Reservoir”). Subsequently, Eurasian acquired 0.5% NSR royalty interests (note: the royalty percentage is subject to reduction on conditions specified in the royalty agreement) covering the Brestovac and Jasikovo-Durlan Potok properties (see EMX news release dated February 4, 2014), which along with Brestovac West, were included in the Timok Project Joint Venture with Freeport. EMX notes that a) the original Brestovac and Brestovac permits are now covered by the Brestovac Metonivca and Brestovac Zapad permits, and b) portions of a reconfigured Jasikovo-Durlan Potok permit (i.e., expanded in some areas and reduced in other areas) are not covered by the EMX royalty. Brestovac (Brestovac Metonivca) hosts epithermal and porphyry copper-gold mineralization at the Cukaru Peki project. During Q2, Reservoir announced an updated resource estimate and positive PEA results for Cukaru Peki (see Reservoir news release dated April 19, 2016 and SEDAR filed technical report titled "NI43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Cukaru Peki Upper Zone Deposit, Serbia" with an effective date of March 31, 2016). As another development in Q2, Reservoir announced a definitive agreement with Nevsun Resources Ltd. to combine their respective companies (see Reservoir news release dated April 24, 2016). Nevsun subsequently closed the acquisition of Reservoir as announced in a June 23, 2016 news release. In Q3 Nevsun reported that it had commenced drilling programs on the Upper Zone resource deposit and Lower Zone porphyry target (see Nevsun news release dated September 29, 2016). According to Nevsun, it is targeting completion of a prefeasibility study in September, 2017, as well as the commencement of an exploration decline in Q4 2017. Nevsun has budgeted US $35-40 million for Upper Zone work through 2017, and estimated expenditures of US $20 million for the Lower Zone program. Qualified Person Eric P. Jensen, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and employee of the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Europe. HAITI Eurasian and Newmont Ventures Limited (collectively, the “JV” or "Joint Venture"), had been exploring a land position along a 130 kilometer trend of Haiti’s Massif du Nord mineral belt since 2008, with Newmont funding and managing the Joint Venture. EMX’s 100% controlled Grand Bois gold-copper project was not subject to the JV with Newmont. In 2013 the Haitian government suspended its Mining Convention process while it began working on a new mining law, which as Eurasian understands was an ongoing process during 2016. EMX sold its Haiti Joint Venture interests in 2015 to Newmont. The now terminated EMX-Newmont Joint Ventures covered six designated exploration areas in Haiti. Pursuant to the transaction, Newmont acquired all of EMX's interest in the designated exploration areas on the following terms: a) Newmont paid US$4 million in cash to EMX at closing, b) the Joint Ventures were terminated, c) EMX retained a 0.5% NSR royalty on the 49 Research Permit applications covering the designated exploration areas, and d) EMX retains the right to acquire any properties proposed to be abandoned or surrendered by Newmont. In Q1 2016, EMX sold its 100% controlled Grand Bois project, which was outside the Joint Venture with Newmont, to a privately held Nevada corporation. EMX retained a 0.5% NSR royalty interest in the Grand Bois project and the right to acquire any properties proposed to be abandoned or surrendered from the Grand Bois project in the future. As a result of the above two transactions, all of EMX's interests in Haiti have now been converted into NSR royalties. Qualified Person Dean D. Turner, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Haiti. 63 STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS IG Copper LLC EMX is a strategic investor in IG Copper LLC, a privately held company that is in a joint venture with Freeport on the Malmyzh copper-gold porphyry project in Far East Russia. IGC has a 51% ownership interest in the Malmyzh joint venture, with Freeport retaining a 49% interest. IGC is operating and managing the project. The Shelekhovo and Salasinskaya properties, located ~150 kilometers northeast of Malmyzh, are 100% controlled by IGC and not subject to the joint venture with Freeport. Eurasian was an early investor in IGC, and is its largest shareholder, with approximately 39% of the issued and outstanding shares (36% equity position on a fully-diluted basis) from investments totaling US$9 million. EMX's investment in IGC and the Malmyzh project is material to the Company. Malmyzh is a grassroots, district-scale discovery with over 14 porphyry copper-gold centers currently identified within a 16 by 5 kilometer intrusive corridor. A statement of inferred resources for Malmyzh's Valley, Central, Freedom (Southeast), and Flats deposits under NI 43-101 and CIM definition standards was provided in 2015 by Phil Newall, PhD, BSc, CEng, FIMMM, a Qualified Person and managing director of Wardell Armstrong International. The open pit constrained inferred resources at a 0.30% copper equivalent cut-off are 1,661 million tonnes at average grades of 0.34% copper and 0.17 g/t gold, or 0.42% copper-equivalent, containing 5.65 million tonnes (12.45 billion pounds) copper and 9.11 million ounces gold, or 7.06 million tonnes (15.56 billion pounds) copper-equivalent*.The project has excellent logistical characteristics and available infrastructure, and is located 220 kilometers northeast of the Russia-China border at Khabarovsk. Important advancements for the Malmyzh project during 2016 included:  In Q3, IGC advised that the joint venture had received approval to proceed with advancing the project from the Government Commission on Monitoring Foreign Investment (the "Commission") as required for “strategically significant” deposits according to Russian law (i.e., the Law on Foreign Investments in Strategic Industries, also termed the Strategic Industries Law or "SIL"). According to IGC, highlights of the Commission's approval include: - - - The Joint Venture, as a majority foreign owned business entity, has been approved to retain control of the Malmyzh project exploration and mining licenses. The Joint Venture, therefore, maintains mining and production rights for the Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses. The Joint Venture holds 100% of the rights for the Malmyzh and Malmyzh North exploration and mining licenses, and is entitled to recover all minerals of economic value including copper, gold and by- product minerals.  The conclusion of the SIL process initiated a new, multi-year phase in the project's development. The Malmyzh team prepared a “Project Plan” document that outlined advanced plans and programs that include additional technical work (i.e., drilling, exploration, metallurgy, engineering, and hydrology), as well as environmental, social, and economic assessments. This next phase of work will ultimately conclude as a detailed "TEO of Permanent Conditions" report, which is considered to be a precursor to commencement of exploitation and mining (TEO is the acronym for "Technico-Economicheskiye Obosnovaniye" which translates as Technical-Economic Basis).  In Q4, IGC commenced a reconnaissance diamond drilling program at the Freedom (Northwest), North, Sleeper West, and Sleeper prospects totaling ten holes for 3,474.8 meters. The last hole of the program (AMM-213) drilled at Freedom Northwest, provided particularly notable results, intersecting the longest copper-gold mineralized interval drilled at Malmyzh to date. The drilling at the Sleeper West and North prospects also returned encouraging results. Overall, the Russian government strongly supports mining investment and development in their Far East Krais (administrative regions). IGC is encouraged by, and appreciative of, the strong measures of support for advancing a project recognized as an exceptional exploration asset with world-class potential. * Copper equivalent calculated as CuEq = Cu% + (Au g/t * 0.5), based on assumed prices of $3.25/lb Cu and $1400/oz Au, with recoveries of 90% for Cu and 70% for Au. 64 Revelo Resources Corp. EMX has a strategic investment in Revelo Resources Corp., a company focused on the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties in the prolific metallogenic belts of northern Chile. Revelo has a portfolio of 22 projects prospective for copper, gold and silver. Revelo also retains a 2% royalty interest in the Victoria Project, an important copper-gold-silver exploration project in northern Chile. Qualified Person Dean D. Turner, CPG, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and consultant to the Company, has reviewed, verified and approved the above technical disclosure on Strategic Investments. GEOTHERMAL ROYALTIES EMX initiated a geothermal energy program in 2010, and acquired assets in Slovakia and Peru. Eurasian subsequently sold its geothermal assets in 2013 to Starlight Geothermal Ltd. for cash payments, an equity position in SGL, and gross royalties of 1.0% in Slovakia and 0.5% in Peru from future geothermal energy production. The Company is not aware of any changes to its Slovakia and Peru geothermal royalty property holdings in 2016. OPERATING RESULTS Year ended December 31, 2016 The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2016 (“FY16”) was $2,683,482 compared to $6,875,857 for the prior year (“FY15”). The loss for FY16 was made up of a net royalty loss of $47,265 (2015 - $187,773) after depletion and related tax, net exploration expenditures of $4,999,959 (2015 - $4,364,675), general and administrative expenditures of $3,220,339 (2015 - $3,535,534) and other gains/(losses) totaling $4,144,749 (2015 - $(2,219,105)) offset by a deferred income tax recovery of $1,439,332 (2015 - $3,431,230). Included in other gains/(losses) was $Nil (2015 - $(3,973,699)) in impairment charges related to the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block and related assets, a gain on the sale of exploration and evaluation assets of $6,834,999 (2015- $5,393,305), a dilution gain on associated companies of $982,634 (2015 - $Nil), an equity loss in associated companies of $1,295,568 (2015 - $1,062,146), and a writedown of goodwill of $1,518,328 (2015 - $3,047,605). Some items to note are: Revenues In FY16, royalty income was earned for 1,361 (2015 – 1,096) ounces of gold totaling $2,227,322 (2015 - $1,609,553) offset by gold tax and depletion of $2,274,587 (2015 - $1,797,326) for net royalty loss of $47,265 (2015 – loss $187,773). The increase in royalty income was mainly due to an increase in ounces produced and a higher realized gold price per ounce in the current period. In FY16 the average realized gold price was US$1,250 per ounce compared to US$1,160 for 2015. Exploration Expenditures Exploration expenditures (gross) decreased by $466,731 in FY16 compared to FY15. Recoveries decreased by $168,553 in FY16 compared to FY15. for a net increase in exploration expenditures of $635,284 in FY16 compared to FY15. Some of the differences between 2016 and 2015 are as follows:   In Scandinavia, net expenditures were consistent, increasing by $81,027 compared to the prior period. In 2016, the Company continued to actively market its project interests in Scandinavia with the result that four exploration projects were sold to Boreal Metals in late 2016. Eurasian’s staff in Scandinavia is retained on a consulting basis only, in order to keep costs low during times of inactivity. In the USA, gross expenditures increased from $2,713,477 to $3,342,206 and recoveries decreased from $901,385 to $886,872. The increase in expenditures was the result of generative exploration work that lead to the acquisition of two new projects and the decrease in recoveries relates to land fees paid and recovered in the comparable period by project partners. The Americas continue to represent a potentially high value, low cost exploration venue coupled with a large list of prospective partners to conduct EMX’s business model. Despite tough market conditions, base- metal projects still appear to be sought after and BCE is in discussions with several groups regarding its properties. A major focus of BCE for the year will remain to partner available assets, reduce holding costs, and recover a portion of its burn. 65   In Turkey, gross expenditures decreased by $37,641, while net expenditures increased by $263,346 as a result of fewer recoveries. In 2016, the Turkish Business Unit continued to be a key value driver for Eurasian. Partner funded programs continued to advance projects in the Eurasian portfolio, with 6 of the 7 projects in Turkey operating under partnerships. In 2015 the Company regained 100% control of the Sisorta and Akarca properties, and closed its exploration office in Ankara. In 2016, under separate share purchase agreements EMX sold EBX Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Sisorta gold property in Turkey, to Bahar Madencilik Sinayi ve Ticaret Ltd Sti, for cash payments and retained NSR payments upon production, and sold AES Madencilik A.S., the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Akarca gold-silver project in Turkey, to Çiftay İnşaat Taahhüt ve Ticaret A.Ş., for a US $2million cash payment ($2,630,760) at closing, staged gold bullion payments (or the cash equivalent), work commitments, and a sliding scale retained royalty interest. In the Asia Pacific region, net expenditures for 2016 totaled $10,572 compared to net expenditures of $294,051 in 2015 as the Company operated under a reduced expenditure rate, with expenditures being recovered from active partnership agreements. In 2015 the Koonenberry project was reduced in scope with Arastra relinquishing their holdings and North Queensland relinquishing a portion of their holdings in the project. The Company elected not to acquire this ground thus saving on land fees. North Queensland continues to advance the Koonenberry project under the active exploration and option agreement. The Neavesville project is under a definitive agreement with L&M giving L&M the right to acquire the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Neavesville property. General and Administrative General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) of $3,220,339 were incurred compared to $3,535,534 in FY15. G&A costs (before share-based payments) have decreased each year since 2012 as the Company found ways to streamline and reduce the G&A expenses of our business. Significant changes in the current year compared to the previous years include:  Investor relations increased from by $56,235 in FY16 compared to FY15. The Company attends select industry trade shows and supports lines of communication to current and potential investors.  Travel expenditures decreased by $115,813 in FY16 compared to FY15 as the Company made changes to budgets, and implemented cost saving measures.  Administrative and office expenses decreased by $178,808 to $721,645 in the current year compared to the prior year of $900,453. The Company has a corporate office in Vancouver which manages the finance, regulatory and administrative functions. It also has a regional office in Littleton, Colorado which supports the exploration, technical, investor relations and deal flow aspects of the business.  Salaries and consultants are one of the largest expense in G&A. It should be noted that many of our personnel expenditures companywide are denominated in United States dollars (“USD”) and the increase in the value of the USD compared to the Canadian dollar, which is our reporting currency, will increase expenditures. Salaries and consultants decreased by $66,942 in FY16 compared to FY15. Other  The Company recognized a net gain on the sale of certain exploration and evaluation assets during the year of $6,834,999 compared to $5,393,305 in the prior year. In FY16 the gain resulted from the sale of two significant assets in Turkey including $6,683,560 related to the sale of AES to Çiftay. The net proceeds on the sale included a US $2,000,000 payment ($2,630,760) on signing and future payments estimated at $4,145,898 included in accounts receivables. The significant gain in FY15 resulted from the sale of certain Haitian interests to Newmont for a $5,277,542 (US $4,000,000) cash payment and a retained 0.5% NSR royalty interest.  In FY16 the Company realized both an increase in royalty ounce production and average gold prices received when compared to FY15. As a result, no impairment was recorded on the Leevile royalty interest. In FY15, as a result of the decline in the production of gold from the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block, and decrease in the realized gold prices, the Company revised its estimated annual gold production over the expected mine life and decreased its long term gold price forecast from US$1300 to US$1200 per ounce. As a result, the Company recorded $Nil (FY15 - $3,973,699) in impairment charges related to the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block and related assets that make up the same cash-generating unit (“CGU”). 66  The Company applies a one-step approach to determine if the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block and the related assets within the same CGU are impaired. The impairment loss is the amount by which the CGU’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The loss is first applied to reduce the asset component if such indicators for impairment exist, and any excess to goodwill within the CGU. As result, the Company has written down the goodwill by $1,518,328 (2015 - $3,047,605).  The Company recorded a deferred income tax recovery of $1,439,332 compared to $3,431,230 in 2015, and a net decrease in deferred tax liabilities of $ 1,748,562 (2015 - $1,715,656). A significant component of the deferred tax recovery and decrease in the related liability is the result of any impairment of the royalty interest partially offset by a cumulative translation loss as a result of the strengthening $USD compared to $CAD. The decrease in the income tax recovery in FY16 compared to FY15 is a result of no impairment on the related royalty asset.  The Company’s share of the net loss related to its 39% (2015 – 42%) equity investment in IGC for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $1,295,568 (2015 - $1,062,146). In 2016, the Company also recorded a dilution gain of $982,634 (2015 - $Nil) related to the Company’s change in ownership interest in IGC. SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS ACCOUNTED FOR BY THE EQUITY METHOD The Company has a 39% (2015 – 42%; 2014 – 42%) equity investment in IGC. At December 31, 2016, the Company, including conversion of a note receivable (Note 7), has invested an aggregate of US$8,967,010 towards its investment (December 31, 2015 - US$7,782,500; 2014 – US$7,782,500). At December 31, 2016, the Company’s investment including dilution gain less its share of accumulated equity losses was $4,992,823 (2015 - $3,333,491; 2014 – 4,072,737). The Company’s share of the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $1,295,568 (2015 - $1,062,146; 2014 - $1,086,649). The Company has a minority position on the Board of IGC, and does not control operational decisions. The Company’s judgment is that it has significant influence, but not control and accordingly equity accounting is appropriate. At December 31, 2014, the Company had a 49% equity investment in a private Turkish company (“Turkish Co”) with Chesser Resources Ltd., an Australian Stock Exchange listed Exploration Company. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company purchased the remaining 51% interest in the Turkish company (Note 9). As such, the books and records of the Turkish company are consolidated as a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company. The carrying value of the investment prior to the purchase and as at December 31, 2014 was $Nil and the Company’s share of the net loss of the former joint venture for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $Nil (2015 - $Nil; 2014 - $Nil). As at December 31, 2016, associated companies’ aggregate assets, aggregate liabilities and net loss for the year are as follows: During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized a dilution gain of $982,634 related to the Company’s change in ownership percentage as a result of IGC’s share issuance for cash proceeds and loan conversions. 67 December 31, 2016IGCAggregate assets 6,884,378$ Aggregate liabilities (1,471,260) Loss for the year3,216,120 The Company's ownership %39%The Company's share of loss for the year(1,295,568) As at December 31, 2015, associated companies’ aggregate assets, aggregate liabilities and net loss for the year are as follows: As at December 31, 2014, associated companies’ aggregate assets, aggregate liabilities and net loss for the year are as follows: SELECTED ANNUAL INFORMATION The year ended December 31, 2016 saw an impairment charge of $Nil (2015 - $3,973,699; 2014 - $7,371,765) on the royalty interests, a related write-down of goodwill of $1,518,328 (2015 - $3,047,605; 2014 - $2,248,057), and a recovery of $1,439,332 (2015 - $3,431,230; 2014 - $3,356,471 of deferred income taxes, offset by a gain of $6,834,999 (2015 - $5,393,305; 2014 – loss $154,533) on the acquisition and sale of exploration and evaluation assets, and a dilution gain on associated companies of $982,634 (2015 - $Nil) which have a significant impact on the net losses for the respective fiscal years. OUTSTANDING SHARE DATA At March 27, 2017, the Company had 74,164,710 common shares issued and outstanding.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss or available for sale, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Eurasian, the parent company, and its controlled subsidiaries, after the elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has exposure to variable returns from its involvement and has the ability to use power over the investee to affect its returns. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company until the date on which control ceases. The accounts of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions are eliminated. The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries are as follows: Functional and Reporting Currency The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The functional currency for the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar except the functional currency of the operations of Bullion Monarch which is the US dollar. The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. 69 NamePlace of IncorporationOwnership PercentageBullion Monarch Mining, IncUtah, USA100%EMX (USA) Services Corp.Nevada, USA100%Bronco Creek Exploration Inc.Arizona, USA100%Eurasia Madencilik Ltd.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured at the rate of exchange at each financial position date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in profit or loss. On translation of the entities whose functional currency is other than the Canadian dollar, revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rates approximating those in effect on the date of the transactions. Assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange gains and losses, including results of re-translation, are recorded in the foreign currency translation reserve. Financial Instruments All financial instruments are classified into one of the following four categories: (a) Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) Financial assets and financial liabilities classified as FVTPL are acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing them in the near term. They are recognized at fair value based on market prices, with any resulting gains and losses reflected in profit or loss for the period in which they arise. (b) Held-to-maturity financial assets Held-to-maturity financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that an entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. They are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method less any impairment loss. A gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognized or impaired, and through the amortization process. (c) Available for sale financial assets Available for sale (“AFS”) financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale, or that are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or FVTPL. They are measured at fair value. Fair value is determined based on market prices. Equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market are measured at cost. Gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income (loss) until the financial asset is derecognized, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized in profit or loss for the period. (d) Loans and receivables and other financial liabilities Loans and receivables and other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method less any impairment loss. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, investments, receivables, restricted cash, reclamation bonds, convertible notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and advances from joint venture partners. Unless otherwise noted the fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values. Cash and cash equivalents are classified as loans and receivables. Cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short- term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. Warrants held through investments are classified as derivative financial assets at FVTPL and are accounted for at fair value. For warrants that are not traded on an exchange, no market value is readily available. When there are sufficient and reliable observable market inputs, a valuation technique is used; if no such market inputs are available, the warrants are valued at intrinsic value, which is equal to the higher of the market value of the underlying security less the exercise price of the warrant, or zero. Investments (Marketable securities) are classified FVTPL and are measured at fair market value. Marketable securities transferred to the Company as part of an acquisition are classified as AFS and are carried at fair market value. Changes in fair value of FVTPL assets are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which they occur. Changes in fair value of AFS 70 assets are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income on the statement of financial position until sold or if there is an other than temporary impairment in value. Reclamation bonds are classified as financial assets held-to-maturity. Restricted cash is classified as financial assets at FVTPL. The Company classifies its receivables as loans and receivables and its accounts payable and accrued liabilities and advances from joint venture partners as other financial liabilities. Certain receivables related to the sale of Akarca are considered to be derivative financial assets as they are subject to variations in gold price per ounce on record date and final price received and are accordingly classified as FVTPL. The derivative receivable is recorded at fair value each period until final settlement occurs, with changes in fair value reflected in profit or loss for the period in which they arise. Impairment of Financial Assets Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial assets, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been impacted. For all financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:  Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty;  Default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or,  It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization. For certain categories of financial assets, that are assessed not to be impaired individually, are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. The carrying amount of financial assets is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss. With the exception of FVTPL marketable securities, if in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized. In respect of AFS marketable securities, impairment losses previously recognized through profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized directly in equity. Convertible Notes Receivable The notes receivable are hybrid financial assets that consist of a note receivable component and a separate equity conversion component. The notes receivable are measured at fair value on initial recognition by discounting the stream of future interest and principal payments at the rate of interest prevailing at the date of the issue for instruments of similar term and risk. Interest income based on the rate of the note and the accretion of the additional interest to the amount that will be receivable on maturity are recognized through profit and loss as interest income. The equity conversion option is an embedded derivative that has been separated from the notes receivable and is valued based on residual value. The embedded derivative is not revalued subsequent to initial measurement unless terms of the original loan are changed. Investments in Associated Companies The Company accounts for its long-term investments in affiliated companies over which it has significant influence on the equity basis of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recorded at cost, adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of earnings or losses and reduced by dividends received. The Company assesses its equity investments for impairment if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the equity investment and that the event or events has an impact on the estimated future cash flow of the investment that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence of impairment of equity investments includes: 71  Significant financial difficulty of the associated companies;  Becoming probable that the associated companies will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; or,  National or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults of the associated companies. Exploration and evaluation assets and exploration expenditures Acquisition costs for exploration and evaluation assets, net of recoveries, are capitalized on a property-by-property basis. Acquisition costs include cash consideration and the value of common shares, based on recent issue prices, issued for exploration and evaluation assets pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Exploration expenditures, net of recoveries, are charged to operations as incurred. After a property is determined by management to be commercially feasible, subsequent development expenditures on the property will be capitalized. When there is little prospect of further work on a property being carried out by the Company or its partners, when a property is abandoned, or when the capitalized costs are no longer considered recoverable, the related property costs are written down to management’s estimate of their net recoverable amount. The costs related to a property from which there is production, together with the costs of production equipment, will be depleted and amortized using the unit-of-production method. An exploration and evaluation asset acquired under an option agreement, where payments are made at the sole discretion of the Company, is capitalized at the time of payment. Option payments received are treated as a reduction of the carrying value of the related acquisition cost for the mineral property until the payments are in excess of acquisition costs, at which time they are then credited to profit or loss. Option payments are at the discretion of the optionee and, accordingly, are accounted for when receipt is reasonably assured. Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with IAS 18 Revenue and based upon amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying royalty agreements. Specifically, royalty revenue is recognized in accordance with the terms of the underlying royalty agreements subject to (i) when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the risks and rewards having been transferred; (iii) the royalty or stream being fixed or determinable; and (iv) the collectability of the royalty being reasonably assured. In some instances, the Company will not have access to sufficient information to make a reasonable estimate of revenue and, accordingly, revenue recognition is deferred until management can make a reasonable estimate. Royalty revenue may be subject to adjustment upon final settlement of estimated metal prices, weights, and assays. Adjustments to revenue from metal prices are recorded monthly and other adjustments are recorded on final settlement and are offset against revenue when incurred. Royalty interests Royalty interests in mineral properties include acquired royalty interests in production stage and exploration stage properties. In accordance with IAS 38 Intangible Assets, the cost of acquired royalty interests in mineral properties is capitalized as intangible assets. Acquisition costs of production stage royalty interests are depleted using the units of production method over the life of the related mineral property, which is calculated using estimated reserves. Acquisition costs of royalty interests on exploration stage mineral properties, where there are no estimated reserves, are not amortized. At such time as the associated exploration stage mineral interests are converted to estimated reserves, the cost basis is amortized over the remaining life of the mineral property, using the estimated reserves. The carrying values of exploration stage mineral interests are evaluated for impairment at such time as information becomes available indicating that the production will not occur in the future. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the price paid for the acquisition of a consolidated entity over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is allocated to the cash generating unit to which it relates. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Impairment is determined by assessing if the carrying value of a cash generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, exceeds its recoverable amount. 72 Property and equipment Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Building is depreciated using a 5 year straightline method. Equipment is depreciated over its estimated useful life using the declining balance method at a rate of 20% per annum. Depreciation on equipment used directly on exploration projects is included in exploration expenditures for that mineral property. Decommissioning liabilities Decommissioning liabilities are recognized for the expected obligations related to the retirement of long-lived tangible assets that arise from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of such assets. A decommissioning liability is recognized in the period in which it is incurred and when a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the liability can be made with a corresponding decommissioning cost recognized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The decommissioning cost is subsequently allocated in a rational and systematic method over the underlying asset’s useful life. The initial fair value of the liability is accreted, by charges to profit or loss, to its estimated future value. Environmental disturbance restoration During the operating life of an asset, events such as infractions of environmental laws or regulations may occur. These events are not related to the normal operation of the asset and are referred to as environmental disturbance restoration provisions. The costs associated with these provisions are accrued and charged to profit or loss in the period in which the event giving rise to the liability occurs. Any subsequent adjustments to these provisions due to changes in estimates are also charged to profit or loss in the period of adjustment. These costs are not capitalized as part of the long-lived assets’ carrying value. Impairment of assets Events or changes in circumstances can give rise to significant impairment charges or reversals of impairment in a particular year. The Company assesses its cash generating units annually to determine whether any indication of impairment exists. Where an indicator of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount is made, which is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The determination of the recoverable amount for value in use requires the use of estimates and assumptions such as long-term commodity prices, discount rates, future capital requirements, exploration potential and future operating performance. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. Share-based payments Share-based payments include option and stock grants granted to directors, employees and non-employees. The Company accounts for share-based compensation using a fair value based method with respect to all share-based payments measured and recognized, to directors, employees and non-employees. For directors and employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is measured at the date of grant. For non-employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is measured on the earlier of the date at which the counterparty performance is complete, or the date the performance commitment is reached, or the date at which the equity instruments are granted if they are fully vested and non-forfeitable. For directors, employees and non-employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is accrued and charged to operations, with the offsetting credit to share based payment reserve for options, and commitment to issue shares for stock grants over the vesting period. If and when the stock options are exercised, the applicable amounts are transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital. When the stock grants are issued, the applicable fair value is transferred from commitment to issue shares to share capital. Option based compensation awards are calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model while stock grants are valued at the fair value on the date of grant. Income taxes Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax is calculated providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. 73 Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable income nor loss. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. Income (loss) per share Basic income or loss per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss for the year by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted income or loss per share is calculated whereby the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted income or loss per share assumes that the deemed proceeds received from the exercise of stock options, share purchase warrants and their equivalents would be used to repurchase common shares of the Company at the average market price during the year, if they are determined to have a dilutive effect. Existing stock options and share purchase warrants have not been included in the current year computation of diluted loss per share as to do so would be anti-dilutive. For the years presented the basic and diluted losses per share are the same. Valuation of equity units issued in private placements The Company has adopted a residual value method with respect to the measurement of shares and warrants issued as private placement units. The residual value method first allocates value to the more easily measurable component based on fair value and then the residual value, if any, to the less easily measurable component. The fair value of the common shares issued in the private placements was determined to be the more easily measurable component and were valued at their fair value, as determined by the closing quoted bid price on the day prior to the issuance date. The balance, if any, was allocated to the attached warrants. Any fair value attributed to the warrants is recorded in reserves. Segment reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision- maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segment, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer. Classification of investments as subsidiaries, joint ventures, associated company and portfolio investments Classification of investments requires judgement as to whether the Company controls, has joint control of or significant influence over the strategic financial and operating decisions relating to the activity of the investee. In assessing the level of control or influence that the Company has over an investment, management considers ownership percentages, board representation as well as other relevant provisions in shareholder agreements. If an investor holds 20% or more of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. Conversely, if the investor holds less than 20% of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the investor does not have significant influence, unless such influence can be clearly demonstrated. 74 Accounting pronouncements not yet effective The following standards and pronouncements have been issued by the IASB and have not yet been adopted by the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new and amended standards are expected to have on its consolidated financial statements. IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into three measurement categories on initial recognition: those measured at fair value through profit and loss, those measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and those measured at amortized cost. Measurement and classification of financial assets is dependent on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. For financial liabilities, the standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements. In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("IFRS 15"), which supersedes IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue, IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers, and SIC 31 Revenue - Barter Transactions involving Advertising Services. IFRS 15 establishes a single five-step model framework for determining the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 16 Leases was issued in January 2016 (effective January 1, 2019) and provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Critical Accounting Judgments and Significant Estimates and Uncertainties The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenue and expenses during the periods presented therein. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgments and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, royalty revenues and expenses. Management bases its judgments and estimates on historical experience and on other various factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company has identified the following critical accounting policies in which significant judgments, estimates and assumptions are made and where actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect financial results or the financial position reported in future periods. Further details of the nature of these assumptions and conditions may be found in the relevant notes to the consolidated financial statements. a) Royalty interest and related depletion In accordance with the Company’s accounting policy, royalty interests are evaluated on a periodic basis to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If any such indication exists, a formal estimate of recoverable amount is performed and an impairment loss recognized to the extent that carrying amount exceeds recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of a royalty asset is measured at the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The determination of fair value and value in use requires management to make estimates and assumptions about expected production and sales volumes, the proportion of areas subject to royalty rights, commodity prices (considering current and historical prices, price trends and related factors), and reserves. These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty; hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of the assets. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying value of the assets may be further impaired or the impairment charge reduced with the impact recorded in profit or loss. b) Goodwill Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Impairment is determined by assessing if the carrying value of a cash generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, exceeds its recoverable amount. The assessment of the recoverable amount used in the goodwill impairment analysis is subject to similar judgments and estimates as described above for property and equipment and royalty interests. 75 c) Exploration and Evaluation Assets Recorded costs of exploration and evaluation assets are not intended to reflect present or future values of exploration and evaluation assets. The recorded costs are subject to measurement uncertainty and it is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that a change in future conditions could require a material change in the recognized amount. d) Taxation The Company’s accounting policy for taxation requires management’s judgment as to the types of arrangements considered to be a tax on income in contrast to an operating cost. Judgment is also required in assessing whether deferred tax assets and certain deferred tax liabilities are recognized on the statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unused tax losses, capital losses and temporary differences, are recognized only where it is considered probable that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of sufficient future taxable profits. Deferred tax liabilities arising from temporary differences caused principally by the expected royalty revenues generated by the royalty property are recognized unless expected offsetting tax losses are sufficient to offset the taxable income and therefore, taxable income is not expected to occur in the foreseeable future. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. These depend on estimates of future production and sales volumes, commodity prices, and reserves. Judgments are also required about the application of income tax legislation in foreign jurisdictions. These judgments and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty, hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognized on the statement of financial position and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognized. In such circumstances, some or the entire carrying amount of recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a corresponding credit or charge to profit or loss. Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the following: e) Functional Currencies The functional currency of each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Determination of the functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment and the Company reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions, which determined the primary economic environment. 5.B. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company considers items included in shareholders’ equity as capital. The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. As at December 31, 2016, the Company had working capital of $6,002,318 (December 31, 2015 - $5,787,109). The Company has continuing royalty income that will vary depending on royalty ounces received, the price of gold, and foreign exchange rates on US royalty payments. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company has sufficient working capital to undertake it’s current business plan. However, should the Company undertake anything over and above these plans, management will need additional sources of working capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares through public and/or private placements, sell assets, or return capital to shareholders. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. On February 22, 2017, the Company announced it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of up to $7,000,000 through the sale of 5,000,000 units at a price of $1.40 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one common share and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $2.00 for a period of two years. Operating Activities Cash used in operations was $5,315,543 for the year ended December 31, 2016 (2015 - $5,082,224) and represents expenditures primarily on mineral property exploration and general and administrative expense for both periods, offset by royalty income received in the year. 76 Financing Activities The Company received $127,800 in 2016 (2015 - $Nil) from the exercise of stock options and $Nil in 2016 (2015 - $Nil) from the exercise of warrants. Investing Activities Some of the significant investment activities during the year ended December 31, 2016 are: - The Company sold the EMX subisidiary that controls the Akarca gold-silver project in Turkey to Çiftay İnşaat Taahhüt ve Ticaret A.Ş. ("Çiftay"), for a US$2,000,000 ($2,630,760) cash payment. - The Company sold the Sistora gold property in Turkey to Bahar Madencilik Sinayi ve Ticaret Ltd Sti for a US$250,000 ($332,969) cash payment. - The Company advanced $542,622 to an associated company pursuant to a convertible loan agreement. - The Company received $130,737 in net proceeds from the purchase and sale of marketable securities. - The Company sold strategic investments in Revelo for $17,375. 5.C.

Compensation Compensation Discussion and Analysis This section includes disclosure of the Corporation’s 2016 compensation discussion and analysis and a sub-section, “Significant Changes to Compensation Policies for 2017”, which outlines the recommendations of Lane Caputo Compensation Inc. (“Lane Caputo”), an independent compensation advisor engaged by the Corporation to review its compensation arrangements with senior management and Directors and to recommend any changes needed to align the Corporation’s compensation components and strategy with both current market practices and the Corporation’s business strategy. That sub-section also details the Corporation’s proposed changes to its compensation policies in response to the advisor’s recommendations. The Compensation Committee of the Board is responsible for ensuring that the Corporation has appropriate procedures for reviewing executive compensation and making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of the Corporation’s executive officers. The Compensation Committee seeks to ensure that total compensation paid to all executive officers is fair and reasonable and is consistent with the Corporation’s compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for recommending compensation for the directors, stock options grants to the directors, officers, employees and consultants pursuant to the Corporation’s Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) and issuances of Common Shares to directors and officers pursuant to the Corporation’s Incentive Stock Grant Program (the “Stock Grant Program”). Both the Option Plan and the Stock Grant Program assists the Corporation in employee retention and cash preservation, while encouraging Common Share ownership and entrepreneurship on the part of the Corporation’s NEOs. The Compensation Committee consists of Brian Bayley (Chairman), Brian Levet, and Larry Okada, all of whom are independent (outside, non-management) directors. The Board is satisfied that the composition of the Compensation Committee ensures an objective process for determining compensation. Each of the members of the Committee has skills and direct experience relevant to his responsibilities as a member of the Committee as follows: Brian Bayley: Mr. Bayley is experienced in the areas of natural resource and real estate lending, corporate restructuring and management and administration of public companies. He is the President of Earlston Management Corp. (formerly called Ionic Management Cop.), a private management company providing services to public and private companies. Mr. Bayley 79 has held active senior management positions in both private and public natural resource companies and has over 30 years of public issuer experience as both a director and an officer. Brian Levet: Mr. Levet has over 35 years of diversified executive and management experience in mineral exploration, project start-up and mine development and operation. He spent over 27 years with Newmont Mining Company, most recently as the Group Executive for Worldwide Exploration, from which he retired in 2011. Larry Okada: Mr. Okada is a Chartered Professional Accountant in British Columbia and Alberta, as well as a Certified Public Accountant in Washington State. He has been in public practice with Deloitte LLP, his own firm, Okada & Partners, and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for over 35 years. For more than 30 years, the majority of Mr. Okada's clients have been public mining companies listed on the TSX-V. Mr. Okada has extensive experience in accounting, finance, and corporate governance. Philosophy and Objectives The philosophy used by the Compensation Committee and the Board in determining compensation is that the compensation should: (i) (ii) assist the Corporation in attracting and retaining high caliber executives; align the interests of executives with those of the Shareholders; (iii) reflect the executive’s performance, expertise, responsibilities and length of service to the Corporation; and (iv) reflect the Corporation’s current state of development, performance and financial status. As part of Lane Caputo’s review of the Corporation’s executive remuneration, the Corporation and Compensation Committee determined that the successful execution of the Corporation’s business plan requires “above average” management talent and experience. As outlined below under “Compensation Philosophy”, this determination has resulted in the Corporation targeting salary for its senior management at the 75th percentile of the peer group. Risk Assessment Under the direction of the Board, the Compensation Committee evaluates the potential risks associated with Corporation’s compensation policies and practices. The Committee has not identified any risks arising from the Corporation’s compensation policies and practices which would have a material adverse effect on the Corporation. As outlined above in “Philosophy and Objectives” above, the Compensation Committee evaluates and recommends to the Board compensation strategies which align each NEO’s goals and values with those of the Shareholders and other stakeholders to ensure the Corporation’s long term goals are met without exposing the Corporation to unnecessary risk. The Compensation Committee considers a mix of base salary, short term incentives and long term incentives to attract high caliber executives sufficient to encourage behaviour that leads to creation of long term value while limiting incentives that might promote inappropriate risk-taking. As part of the annual review of the compensation packages of the Corporation’s NEOs, the Compensation Committee identifies and if necessary changes strategies to mitigate risks. The Committee considers several factors as part of this review including retention of key employees; competitive salaries within the context of peer companies, short term incentives linked to specific goals as discussed below and long term incentives (stock options and RSU’s) which link executive pay to real value creation and long term share appreciation. Compensation Hedging No NEO or director is permitted to purchase financial instruments, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds, designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of equity securities granted as compensation or held, directly or indirectly, by the NEO or director. Compensation Components The compensation of the Corporation’s NEOs is comprised primarily of (i) base salary, (ii) annual short-term incentives in the form of cash bonuses and stock grants under the Stock Grant Program, (iii) long-term incentives in the form of stock grants under the Stock Grant Program and stock options granted under the Option Plan, and (iv) benefits related to health and pension plans, such as United States 401(k) plans. 80 To be competitive with industry rates, the Corporation may provide additional compensation from time to time in the form of stock grants. The Compensation Committee believes that annual and long term stock grant awards align the interests of the NEOs with the interests of Shareholders by linking a component of compensation to the longer term performance of the Common Shares. No formulas have been developed to assign a specific weighting to each of these components. Instead, the Compensation Committee considers the Corporation’s performance and, based on its assessment, recommends appropriate compensation levels to the Board. In establishing levels of cash and equity-based compensation, the Compensation Committee considers the executive’s performance, level of expertise, responsibilities, length of service to the Corporation and comparable levels of remuneration paid to executives of other companies of comparable size and development within the mining exploration and development industries as well the financial and other resources of the Corporation. In determining the amounts payable under the various compensation components, the Corporation also retains, from time to time, a compensation consultant. In March 2015, the Compensation Committee retained McDowall Associates Human Resource Consultants Ltd. (“McDowall”), a North American external compensation consultant headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, to provide an independent review of the compensation paid by the Corporation to its CEO and CFO. McDowall benchmarked the Corporation’s compensation arrangements against a peer group of companies that included a mix of royalty companies and exploration companies with assets greater than $30 million and less than $450 million to reflect the Corporation’s current business operations. McDowall used total assets as the primary determinate of company size because it is more stable over time than either revenue or market capitalization. The peer group of companies consisted of: Almaden Minerals Limited Altius Minerals Corporation Callinan Royalties Corporation Gold Standard Ventures Corporation Midway Gold Corporation Mirasol Resources Limited Osisko Gold Royalties Limited Pilot Gold Inc. Panoro Minerals Limited Sandstorm Gold Limited Seabridge Metals Limited Strategic Metals Limited In addition to the peer group analysis, McDowall compared the compensation of the Corporation’s CEO and CFO against a broad group of 90 mining companies and 12 large mining companies. With respect to the broad group of 90 mining companies, direct comparisons were made to CEOs and CFOs, while for the 12 large mining companies, comparisons were made to an executive one or two levels below the CEOs of the large mining companies. McDowall compared base salary, total cash (base salary + bonuses) and total direct compensation (total cash + long term incentives). In making this comparison, McDowall used an average of the peer group companies and the broad group of 90 mining companies to establish a benchmark for comparison (“Benchmark Companies”). McDowall concluded that the cash base salary of the Corporation’s CEO is higher than the Benchmark Companies average and below the large mining group. With respect to total cash and total direct compensation, it concluded that the Corporation’s CEO is comparable to the average paid by the Benchmark Companies and substantially below the large mining group. It should be noted that the CEO’s cash salary is paid in United States dollars but converted to Canadian dollars for reporting purposes. The Canadian equivalent was used in the comparison to the Benchmark Companies. The higher base salary of the CEO to the Benchmark Companies is partly attributable to the decline in the Canadian dollar against the United States dollar in 2014. McDowall concluded that the base salary, total cash, and total direct compensation for the Corporation’s CFO was below the compensation paid to CFOs by Benchmark Companies and substantially below the larger mining group of companies. In the Corporation’s last two financial years, McDowall has not provided any other services to the Corporation or its affiliates. An independent external compensation consultant was not engaged to provide a review of the compensation paid to the CEO and CFO of the Corporation during the Corporation’s 2016 financial year primarily because of market conditions and the Corporation did not plan to increase such compensation. 81 The Compensation Committee also relies on the experience of its members as officers and directors at other companies in similar lines of business as the Corporation in assessing compensation levels. The other companies of which they are currently a director are identified under the heading “Corporate Governance Practices – Other Directorships” of this Circular. The purpose of this process is to:    understand the competitiveness of current pay levels for each executive position relative to companies with similar business characteristics; identify and understand any gaps that may exist between actual compensation levels and market compensation levels; and establish a basis for developing salary adjustments and short-term and long-term incentive awards for the Compensation Committee’s approval. Base Salary The Compensation Committee recommends, and the Board establishes, each NEO’s salary. The base salary review for each NEO is based on assessment of factors such as    current competitive market conditions, compensation levels within the peer group and particular skills, such as leadership ability and management effectiveness, experience, responsibility and proven or expected performance of the particular individual. Using this information, together with budgetary guidelines and other internally and externally generated planning and forecasting tools, the Compensation Committee performs an annual assessment of the compensation of the Corporation’s CEO and CFO (it does not have any other NEOs). The Committee then recommends to the Board what should be the base salaries of the CEO, CFO and other NEOs, and the Board sets the base salaries of the CEO and CFO and approves the base salaries for the other NEOs. The Corporation did not increase the base salaries of the CEO and CFO for 2016. Annual Short-Term Incentives Annual short-term incentives are made by way of cash bonuses and the issuance of stock grants based, in part, on the Corporation’s success in reaching its annual objectives and, in part, on individual performance and extraordinary effort and achievement. Also, the Corporation may utilize cash bonuses to encourage retention of its staff during periods of increased industry competition for its executive officers and other employees. The Compensation Committee reviews corporate performance objectives during the year to determine its recommendations to the Board of annual short-term incentives. During the last financial year, the principal performance factors and objectives included:  Exploration success;  Acquisition of new properties;  Sale and joint venture of properties;  Royalty creations and acquisitions;  Capital management;  Successful management of the Corporation’s environmental, community, and safety objectives;    Management of human resources. Increasing investor interest in the Corporation; Increasing the Corporation’s market capitalization; and The success of the NEOs’ contributions to the Corporation in reaching its overall goals is a factor in the determination of their annual incentive. The Compensation Committee assesses each NEO’s performance on the basis of his or her respective contribution to the achievement of corporate goals as well as to needs of the Corporation that arise on a day-to-day basis. This assessment is used by the Compensation Committee in developing its recommendations to the Board with respect to the determination of annual incentives for the NEOs. 82 Although a number of the corporate performance objectives were achieved, the Corporation did not grant any annual short- term incentives by way of cash or stock grants to NEOs for its last financial year. Long-Term Incentives Long term compensation is paid in the form of grants of stock options under the Option Plan and the issuance of Common Shares under the Stock Grant Program. Stock Options are generally granted on an annual basis subject to the imposition of trading black-out periods, in which case options scheduled for grant will be granted subsequent to the end of the black-out period. All options granted to NEOs are recommended by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board. In monitoring stock option grants, the Compensation Committee takes into account the level of options granted by comparable companies for similar levels of responsibility and considers each NEO or employee based on reports received from management, its own observations on individual performance (where possible) and its assessment of individual contribution to Shareholder value. To determine the number of Common Shares issuable under options granted pursuant to the methodology outlined above, the Compensation Committee also makes the following determinations:     the exercise price for each option granted; the date on which each option is granted; the vesting terms for each stock option; and the other materials terms and conditions of each stock option grant. The Compensation Committee makes these determinations subject to, and in accordance with, the provision of the Option Plan. Stock options already held by NEOs are considered when granting new options to them. On October 18, 2016, options were granted to NEOs of the Corporation. See Summary Compensation Table below for details. Stock grants for 2016 performance have yet to be determined. Significant Changes to Compensation Policies for 2017 In November 2016, the Compensation Committee retained Lane Caputo to review and make recommendations regarding the Corporation’s executive compensation policies and practices. The report containing Lane Caputo’s recommendations (the “Lane Caputo Report”) will be used by the Compensation Committee to guide and assist it in 2017 in establishing short and long term equity incentive programs (“STIP” and “LTIP”) and compensation levels. To facilitate these programs, the Board has adopted, subject to approval of disinterested Shareholders at the Corporation’s Annual General Meeting to be held on May 17, 2017, a Restricted Share Unit (“RSU”) plan. If the plan is approved by disinterested Shareholders, it is the Board’s intention to terminate the Stock Grant Program. The key components of the Lane Caputo Report are as follows: Peer Group Standard compensation methodology involves benchmarking compensation practices against a group of peer companies of similar size with relevant operations in the same regional geography; the resulting peer group then represents a realistic “market” against which to define the Company’s compensation strategy. As the availability of cash flow tends to determine pay mix to a certain extent, matching the development stages of peer companies is particularly important. Whereas exploration-stage companies tend to rely more heavily on equity-based compensation in order to focus the majority of available cash on exploration activities, companies that have achieved a sustainable level of commercial production, and have associated predictable cash flow levels, gradually reduce their reliance on equity-based compensation in favor of cash compensation. Geographical similarity of peer companies allows for a more accurate benchmarking of the skillsets required to manage international versus domestic operations and reflects the additional time commitment often associated with international operations. The inclusion of internationally-focused companies can have an influence on pay practices due to the risk/reward profile of international operations and the market for executives with international operating experience. 83 The magnitude of executive compensation is closely correlated to the size of organization the executive oversees; as such, compensation levels are compared to companies that would be considered of relevant size to Eurasian. Lane Caputo developed a peer group of mining companies based on the parameters mentioned above against which they benchmarked the compensation competitiveness of Eurasian’s executive team members and non-executive directors. In order to reflect Eurasian’s unique business model, consideration was limited to companies that have an element of royalty income or project generation as part of their business strategy. The 19 companies in the peer group developed for the review are: Abitibi Royalties Inc. Marathon Gold Corp. Riverside Resources Inc. Almaden Minerals Ltd. Millrock Resources Inc. Sabina Gold & Silver Corp. Altius Minerals Corp. Mirasol Resources Ltd. Sandstorm Gold Ltd. ATAC Resources Ltd. NexGen Energy Ltd. Solitario Exploration & Royalty Corp. AuRico Metals Inc. NGEx Resources Inc. Strategic Metals Ltd. Balmoral Resources Ltd. Orex Minerals Inc. Treasury Metals Inc. Corvus Gold Inc. Compensation Philosophy Eurasian’s compensation philosophy is based on the fundamental principles that the Company’s compensation program should assist the Company in attracting and retaining high caliber executives, align the interests of executives with those of the shareholders, reflect the executive’s performance, expertise, responsibilities and length of service to the Company and reflect the Company’s current state of development, performance and financial status. Given the skillsets required to execute the any’s complex business strategy, the proposed positioning for each element of compensation under such a philosophy is as follows: Salary: is based on relevant marketplace information, experience, past performance and level of responsibility. For a fully-qualified incumbent in a given position, Eurasian will target salary at the 75th percentile of the peer group to reflect the complexity of the multiple aspects of the Corporation’s business strategy. The Corporation may pay above or below this target to reflect each incumbent’s relative experience or performance versus the market, or to reflect competitive market pressures for a given skill set. Short-Term Incentives: awards are based on the performance of the executive against predetermined individual performance objectives and the performance of the Company against predetermined annual corporate performance objectives. Target incentive levels (as a percentage of salary) are established to maintain total cash compensation (salary + bonus) at the 75th percentile of the market when performance is at target levels. Incentive opportunity will have sufficient leverage that total cash compensation (salary + bonus) can achieve top quartile levels of cash compensation when performance warrants. In an effort to manage cash flow and/or provide executives with more exposure to the company’s stock, Eurasian may consider paying annual incentives in Restricted Share Units, rather than cash. As with any compensation plan, the Compensation Committee or the Board as a whole should always have discretion to reward above, or below, plan parameters when an individual or team has made an exceptional contribution to the performance of the Company, or conversely, if the financial performance of the company is above targeted levels for external market or economic conditions despite poor operational performance of the management team. 84 Long-Term Incentives: are a particularly important component of compensation in the mining industry, as executives and employees need to be aligned with the risk/reward profile of shareholders through participation in share price appreciation. The number of stock options and other equity-based incentives granted annually to each position is targeted at median levels in the peer group and should be sufficient that, when combined with each position’s other elements of compensation, will allow total direct compensation to achieve upper quartile positioning for superior share price performance. Based on the Lane Caputo Report, the Compensation Committee intends to establish the following compensation components for its 2017 financial year: Base Salary Salary for the Corporation’s NEOs will be dependent upon the final structure of both the STIP and LTIP, as agreed to between the NEOs and other executive officers and the Compensation Committee. In conjunction with the compensation review and the establishment of the STIP and LTIP programs, David M. Cole, CEO, has agreed to decrease his annual cash salary from US$ 400,000 to US$ 325,000, to further align his interests with the overall success of the Corporation. Annual/Short Term Incentives A structured incentive program based on quantifiable corporate and personal goals and objectives that are tied to the overall success of the Corporation and that are closely aligned with the Corporation’s business strategy will be established. The Compensation Committee and the NEOs and other executive officers will develop meaningful, yet attainable, targets for the following key performance indicators, which will be measured over a one year period:  Capital spent by third party partners  Cash management  Corporate Social Responsibility measures (both internal and 3rd party partner programs)  New projects staked/acquired  New exploration and option agreements Long-term Incentives The Corporation intends to adopt, subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, a RSU Plan with the following guidelines:  Performance measured over a three year period, with the entire award vesting at the end of the performance period (known as “cliff-vesting”) to generate sufficient long-term incentive.  Half of each award under the Plan will be subject to performance against an absolute cash flow per share metric or similar, tied directly to the Corporation’s strategic plan.  Half of each award under the Plan will be subject to total shareholder return performance relative to the S&P/TSX Global Gold Index. The Committee and the NEOs and other executive officers are currently discussing appropriate performance targets and mechanics of the RSU Plan so as to achieve the Corporation’s incentive and remuneration goals. 85 Cash Compensation Summary Compensation Table Annual Compensation Long-Term Compensation Awards Payouts Name and Principal Position David M.

The Board established the Option Plan to attract and motivate the directors, officers and employees of the Company (and any of its subsidiaries), employees of any management company and consultants to the Company (collectively the “Optionees”) and thereby advance the Company’s interests by providing them an opportunity to acquire an equity interest in the Company through the exercise of stock options granted to them under the Option Plan. Pursuant to the Option Plan, the Board, based on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, may grant options to Optionees in consideration of them providing their services to the Company or a subsidiary. The number of Common Shares subject to each option is determined by the Board within the guidelines established by the Option Plan. The options enable the Optionees to purchase Common Shares at a price fixed pursuant to such guidelines. The options are exercisable by the Optionee giving the Company notice and payment of the exercise price for the number of Common Shares to be acquired. The Option Plan authorizes the Board to grant stock options to the Optionees on the following terms: 1. 2. The number of Common Shares subject to issuance pursuant to outstanding options, in the aggregate, cannot exceed 10% of the outstanding Common Shares. The number of Common Shares subject to issuance upon the exercise of options granted under the Option Plan by one Optionee or all Optionees providing investor relations services is subject to the following limitations (a) no Optionee can be granted options during a 12 month period to purchase more than (i) 5% of the issued Common Shares unless disinterested Shareholder approval has been obtained (such approval has not been sought), or (ii) 2% of the issued Common Shares, if the Optionee is a consultant, and (b) the aggregate number of Common Shares subject to options held by all Optionees providing investor relations services cannot exceed 2% in the aggregate. 3. Unless the Option Plan has been approved by disinterested Shareholders (such approval has not been obtained), options granted under the Option Plan, together with all of the Company’s previously established and outstanding 91 stock options, stock option plans, employee stock purchase plans or any other compensation or incentive mechanisms involving the issuance or potential issuance of Common Shares, shall not result, at any time, in (a) (b) (c) the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance pursuant to stock options granted to insiders exceeding 10% of the outstanding Common Shares at the time of granting, the grant to insiders, within a one year period, of options to purchase that number of Common Shares exceeding 10% of the outstanding Common Shares, or the issuance to any one insider and such insider’s associates, within a one year period, of Common Shares totaling in excess of 5% of the outstanding Common Shares. The exercise price of the options cannot be set at less than the greater of $0.10 per Common Share and the closing trading price of the Common Shares on the day before the granting of the stock options. If the Optionee is subject to the tax laws of the United States of America and owns (determined in accordance with such laws) greater than 10% of the Common Shares, the exercise price shall be at least 110% of the price established as aforesaid. The options may be exercisable for up to 10 years. There are not any vesting requirements unless the Optionee is a consultant providing investor relations services to the Company, in which case the options must vest over at least 12 months with no more than one-quarter vesting in any three month period. However, the Board may impose additional vesting requirements and, subject to obtaining any required approval from the Exchange, may authorize all unvested options to vest immediately. If there is a potential “change of control” of the Company due to a take-over bid being made for the Company or a similar event, all unvested options, subject to obtaining any required approval from the Exchange, shall vest immediately. The options can only be exercised by the Optionee (to the extent they have already vested) for so long as the Optionee is a director, officer or employee of, or consultant to, the Company or any subsidiary or is an employee of the Company’s management Company and within a period thereafter not exceeding the earlier of: (a) the original expiry date; (b) 90 days after ceasing to be a director, officer or employee of, or consultant at the request of the Board or for the benefit of another director or officer to, the Company unless the Optionee is subject to the tax laws of the United States of America, in which case the option will terminate on the earlier of the 90th day and the third month after the Optionee ceased to be an officer or employee; and (c) if the Optionee dies, within one year from the Optionee’s death. If the Optionee is terminated “for cause”, involuntarily removed or resigns (other than at the request of the Board or for the benefit of another director or officer) from any such positions, the option will terminate concurrently. The options are not assignable except to a wholly-owned holding company. If the option qualifies as an “incentive stock option” under the United States Internal Revenue Code, the option is not assignable to a holding company. No financial assistance is available to Optionees under the Option Plan. Any amendments to outstanding stock options are subject to the approval of the TSX-V and NYSE MKT and, if required by either exchange or the Option Plan, of the Shareholders of the Company, possibly with only “disinterested Shareholders” being entitled to vote. Disinterested Shareholder approval must be obtained for the reduction of the exercise price of options (including the cancellation and re-issuance of options within a one year period so as to effectively reduce the exercise price) of options held by insiders of the Company. The amendment to an outstanding stock option will also require the consent of the Optionee. Any amendments to the Option Plan are subject to the approval of the TSX-V and NYSE MKT and, if required by either exchange or the Option Plan, of the Shareholders of the Company, possibly with only “disinterested Shareholders” being entitled to vote. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. No options have been granted under the Option Plan which are subject to Shareholder approval. The Option Plan does not permit stock options to be transformed into stock appreciation rights. 92 Name Officers/Directors: David M. Cole Michael D. Winn Christina Cepeliauskas Brian E.

The Board created the Incentive Stock Grant Program for the benefit of the officers and directors of the Company in 2010, and expanded the Program in 2011. The grants have a two-year vesting period. The purpose of the Stock Grant Program is as follows. Firstly, to reward and provide an incentive to such persons for the ongoing efforts towards the continuing successes and goals of the Company as many of its successes directly result from their very significant efforts. Secondly, to provide such persons with a long-term incentive to remain with the Company. Finally, from time to time, the Company may provide additional compensation in the form of stock grants as part of annual salaries. 93 The Stock Grant Program provides that, following the approval of the independent members of the Compensation Committee, up to 300,000 Common Shares may be awarded in each year. The Common Shares awarded will vest and be issued in three separate tranches over a two year period – on the date of grant, and on the first and second anniversaries of the initial grant. None of the 300,000 Common Shares not awarded in one year can be rolled over or awarded in subsequent years. If the recipient ceases to be a director or officer of the Company before the relevant anniversary, he or she will not be entitled to receive any further Common Shares under the Stock Grant Program, including Common Shares previously awarded for issuance on such anniversary (with the exception of historical stock grants to Mr. Michael Winn, who shall receive the Common Shares even if he ceases to the be director). The actual number of Common Shares awarded in each year is that number recommended and approved by the independent members of the Compensation Committee or independent directors of the Company. In addition to the Stock Grant Program, the Compensation Committee can recommend the Board approve the issuance of up to 700,000 Common Shares to certain officers and directors of the Company as performance based discretionary bonuses. The purposes of the bonuses are to reward these individuals for their extraordinary efforts and to provide them with a long term incentive to remain with the Company. Any such share grants are subject to the approval of by the TSX-V and NYSE MKT and, if required by either exchange, the independent Shareholders of the Company. ITEM 7.

There are no Canadian restrictions on the repatriation of capital or earnings of a Canadian public company to non-resident investors. There are no laws in Canada or exchange restrictions affecting the remittance of dividends, profits, interest, royalties and other payments to non-resident holders of the Company’s securities, except as discussed in Item 10, ”Taxation" below. Restrictions on Share Ownership by Non-Canadians - There are no limitations under the laws of Canada or in the organizing documents of the Company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote securities of the Company, except that the Investment Canada Act may require review and approval by the Minister of Industry (Canada) of certain acquisitions of "control" of the Company by a "non-Canadian". The threshold for acquisitions of control is generally defined as being one- third or more of the voting shares of the Company. "Non-Canadian" generally means an individual who is not a Canadian citizen, or a Company, partnership, trust or joint venture that is ultimately controlled by non-Canadians. 10.E. Taxation Canadian Federal Income Tax Considerations The following is a brief summary of some of the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences to a holder of common shares of the Company (a "U.S. Holder") who deals at arm's length with the Company, holds the shares as capital property and who, for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Act") and the Canada – United States Income Tax Convention (the "Treaty"), is at all relevant times resident in the United States, is not and is not deemed to be resident in Canada and does not use or hold and is not deemed to use or hold the shares in carrying on a business in Canada. Special rules, which are not discussed below, may apply to a U.S. Holder that is an insurer that carries on business in Canada and elsewhere. Under the Act and the Treaty, a U.S. Holder of common shares will generally be subject to a 15% withholding tax on dividends paid or credited or deemed by the Act to have been paid or credited on such shares. The withholding tax rate is 5% where the U.S. Holder is a Company that beneficially owns at least 10% of the voting shares of the Company and the dividends may be exempt from such withholding in the case of some U.S. Holders such as qualifying pension funds and charities. In general, a U.S. Holder will not be subject to Canadian income tax on capital gains arising on the disposition of shares of the Company unless (i) at any time in the five-year period immediately preceding the disposition, 25% or more of the shares of any class or series of the capital stock of the Company was owned by (or was under option of or subject to an interest of) the U.S. holder or persons with whom the U.S. holder did not deal at arm's length, and (ii) the value of the common shares of the Company at the time of the disposition derives principally from real property (as defined in the Treaty) situated in Canada. For this purpose, the Treaty defines real property situated in Canada to include rights to explore for or exploit mineral deposits and other natural resources situated in Canada, rights to amounts computed by reference to the amount or value of production from such resources, certain other rights in respect of natural resources situated in Canada and shares of a Company the value of whose shares is derived principally from real property situated in Canada. The US Internal Revenue Code provides special anti-deferral rules regarding certain distributions received by US persons with respect to, and sales and other dispositions (including pledges) of stock of, a passive foreign investment company. A foreign Company, such as the Company, will be treated as a passive foreign investment company if 75% or more of its gross income is passive income for a taxable year or if the average percentage of its assets (by value) that produce, or are held for the production of, passive income is at least 50% for a taxable year. The Company believes that it was a passive foreign investment company as at December 31, 2016. Dividends A Holder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax ("Part XIII Tax") equal to 25%, or such lower rate as may be available under an applicable tax treaty, of the gross amount of any dividend paid or deemed to be paid on common shares. Under the Canada-U.S. Income Tax Convention (1980) as amended by the Protocols signed on 6/14/1983, 3/28/1984, 3/17/1995, and 104 7/29/1997 (the "Treaty"), the rate of Part XIII Tax applicable to a dividend on common shares paid to a Holder who is a resident of the United States and who is the beneficial owner of the dividend, is 5%. If the Holder is a company that owns at least 10% of the voting stock of the Company paying the dividend, and, in all other cases, the tax rate is 15% of the gross amount of the dividend. The Company will be required to withhold the applicable amount of Part XIII Tax from each dividend so paid and remit the withheld amount directly to the Receiver General for Canada for the account of the Holder. Disposition of Common Shares A Holder who disposes of a common share, including by deemed disposition on death, will not normally be subject to Canadian tax on any capital gain (or capital loss) thereby realized unless the common share constituted "taxable Canadian property" as defined by the Tax Act. Generally, a common share of a public Company will not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Holder if the share is listed on a prescribed stock exchange unless the Holder or persons with whom the Holder did not deal at arm's length alone or together held or held options to acquire, at any time within the five years preceding the disposition, 25% or more of the shares of any class of the capital stock of the Company. The Canadian Venture Exchange is a prescribed stock exchange under the Tax Act. A Holder who is a resident of the United States and realizes a capital gain on a disposition of a common share that was taxable Canadian property will nevertheless, by virtue of the Treaty, generally be exempt from Canadian tax thereon unless (a) more than 50% of the value of the common shares is derived from, or from an interest in, Canadian real estate, including Canadian mineral resource properties, (b) the common share formed part of the business property of a permanent establishment that the Holder has or had in Canada within the 12 month period preceding the disposition, or (c) the Holder is an individual who (i) was a resident of Canada at any time during the 10 years immediately preceding the disposition, and for a total of 120 months during any period of 20 consecutive years, preceding the disposition, and (ii) owned the common share when he ceased to be resident in Canada. A Holder who is subject to Canadian tax in respect of a capital gain realized on a disposition of a common share must include three quarters of the capital gain (taxable capital gain) in computing the Holder's taxable income earned in Canada. The Holder may, subject to certain limitations, deduct three-quarters of any capital loss (allowable capital loss) arising on a disposition of taxable Canadian property from taxable capital gains realized in the year of disposition in respect to taxable Canadian property and, to the extent not so deductible, from such taxable capital gains realized in any of the three preceding years or any subsequent year. Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations The following is a general summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to a U.S. Holder (as defined below) arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. This summary is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations that may apply to a U.S. Holder arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. In addition, this summary does not take into account the individual facts and circumstances of any particular U.S. Holder that may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such U.S. Holder, including specific tax consequences to a U.S. Holder under an applicable tax treaty. Accordingly, this summary is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or U.S. federal income tax advice with respect to any U.S. Holder. This summary does not address the U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non- U.S. tax consequences to U.S. Holders of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. Except as specifically set forth below, this summary does not discuss applicable tax reporting requirements. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares. No legal opinion from U.S. legal counsel or ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the positions taken in this summary. Scope of this Summary Authorities This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations (whether final, temporary, or proposed), published rulings of the IRS, published administrative positions of the IRS, the Treaty, and U.S. court decisions that are applicable and, in each case, as in effect and available, as of the date of this document. Any of 105 the authorities on which this summary is based could be changed in a material and adverse manner at any time, and any such change could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis which could affect the U.S. federal income tax considerations described in this summary. This summary does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied on a retroactive or prospective basis. U.S. Holders For purposes of this summary, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of common shares that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:     an individual who is a citizen or resident of the U.S.; a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Columbia; an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or a trust that (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the U.S. and the control of one or more U.S. persons for all substantial decisions or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. Non-U.S. Holders For purposes of this summary, a "non-U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of common shares that is not a U.S. Holder or is a partnership. This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax consequences to non-U.S. Holders arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. Accordingly, a non-U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences (including the potential application of and operation of any income tax treaties) relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. U.S. Holders Subject to Special U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules Not Addressed This summary does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders that: (a) are tax-exempt organizations, qualified retirement plans, individual retirement accounts, or other tax-deferred accounts; (b) are financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, or regulated investment companies; (c) are broker-dealers, dealers, or traders in securities or currencies that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method; (d) have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; (e) own common shares as part of a straddle, hedging transaction, conversion transaction, constructive sale, or other arrangement involving more than one position; (f) acquired common shares in connection with the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for services; (g) hold common shares other than as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment purposes); or (h) own or have owned (directly, indirectly, or by attribution) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of the outstanding shares of Eurasian. This summary also does not address the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. Holders who are: (a) U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.; (b) persons that have been, are, or will be a resident or deemed to be a resident in Canada for purposes of the Act; (c) persons that use or hold, will use or hold, or that are or will be deemed to use or hold common shares in connection with carrying on a business in Canada; (d) persons whose common shares constitute "taxable Canadian property" under the Act; or (e) persons that have a permanent establishment in Canada for the purposes of the Treaty. U.S. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, U.S. Holders described immediately above, should consult their own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. federal alternative minimum, U.S. federal estate and gift, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares. If an entity or arrangement that is classified as a partnership (or "pass-through" entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds common shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to such partnership and the partners (or owners) of such partnership generally will depend on the activities of the partnership and the status of such partners (or owners). This summary does not address the tax consequences to any such partnership or partner (or owner). Partners (or owners) of entities or arrangements that are classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences arising from and relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. 106 Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules If Eurasian were to constitute a "passive foreign investment company" (a “PFIC”), as defined below, within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code, for any year during a U.S. Holder’s holding period, then certain different and potentially adverse rules will affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder resulting from the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares. In addition, in any year in which Eurasian is classified as a PFIC, such holder will be required to file an annual report with the IRS containing such information as Treasury Regulations or other IRS guidance may require. A failure to satisfy such reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing such information returns under these rules, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8621. PFIC Status of Eurasian Eurasian generally will be a PFIC if, for a tax year, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of Eurasian is passive income (the "income test"), or (b) 50% or more of the value of Eurasian’s assets either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income, based on the quarterly average of the fair market value of such assets (the "asset test"). "Gross income" generally includes all sales revenues less the cost of goods sold, plus income from investments and from incidental or outside operations or sources, and "passive income" generally includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions. Active business gains arising from the sale of commodities generally are excluded from passive income if substantially all (85% or more) of a foreign corporation’s commodities are stock in trade of such foreign corporation or other property of a kind which would properly be included in inventory of such foreign corporation, or property held by such foreign corporation primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business and certain other requirements are satisfied. For purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, if Eurasian owns, directly or indirectly, 25% or more of the total value of the outstanding shares of another corporation, Eurasian will be treated as if it (a) held a proportionate share of the assets of such other corporation and (b) received directly a proportionate share of the income of such other corporation. In addition, for purposes of the PFIC income test and asset test described above, and assuming certain other requirements are met, "passive income" does not include certain interest, dividends, rents, or royalties that are received or accrued by Eurasian from certain "related persons" (as defined in Section 954(d)(3) of the Code), to the extent such items are properly allocable to the income of such related person that is not passive income. Eurasian currently expects that it will be classified as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for the tax year ending December 31, 2016 and expects to be a PFIC in future tax years. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the status of Eurasian as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested. The determination of whether any corporation was, or will be, a PFIC for a tax year depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. In addition, whether any corporation will be a PFIC for any tax year depends on the assets and income of such corporation over the course of each such tax year and, as a result, cannot be predicted with certainty as of the date of this document. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not challenge any determination made by Eurasian concerning its PFIC status. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the PFIC status of Eurasian. Default PFIC Rules Under Section 1291 of the Code If Eurasian is a PFIC, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares will depend on whether such U.S. Holder makes an election to treat Eurasian as a "qualified electing fund", or "QEF", under Section 1295 of the Code, or a "QEF Election", or a mark-to-market election under Section 1296 of the Code, or a "Mark-to-Market Election". A U.S. Holder that does not make either a QEF Election or a Mark-to- Market Election will be referred to in this summary as a "Non-Electing U.S. Holder". A Non-Electing U.S. Holder will be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code with respect to, (a) any gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares, and (b) any excess distribution received on common shares. A distribution generally will be an "excess distribution" to the extent that such distribution (together with all other distributions received in the current tax year) exceeds 125% of the average distributions received during the three preceding tax years (or during a U.S. Holder’s holding period for common shares, if shorter). Under Section 1291 of the Code, any gain recognized on the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares and any "excess distribution" received on common shares must be ratably allocated to each day in a Non-Electing U.S. Holder’s holding period for the respective common shares. The amount of any such gain or excess distribution allocated to the tax year of disposition or distribution of the excess distribution and to years before the entity became a PFIC, if any, would be 107 taxed as ordinary income. The amounts allocated to any other tax year would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest tax rate applicable to ordinary income in each such year, and an interest charge would be imposed on the tax liability for each such year, calculated as if such tax liability had been due in each such year. A Non-Electing U.S. Holder that is not a corporation must treat any such interest paid as "personal interest", which is not deductible. If Eurasian is a PFIC for any tax year during which a Non-Electing U.S. Holder holds common shares, Eurasian will continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such Non-Electing U.S. Holder, regardless of whether Eurasian ceases to be a PFIC in one or more subsequent tax years. A Non-Electing U.S. Holder may terminate this deemed PFIC status by electing to recognize gain (which will be taxed under the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above), but not loss, as if such common shares were sold on the last day of the last tax year for which Eurasian was a PFIC. QEF Election A U.S. Holder that makes a timely and effective QEF Election for the first tax year in which its holding period of its common shares begins generally will not be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above with respect to its common shares. A U.S. Holder that makes a timely and effective QEF Election will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such U.S. Holder’s pro rata share of, (a) the net capital gain of Eurasian, which will be taxed as long-term capital gain to such U.S. Holder, and (b) the ordinary earnings of Eurasian, which will be taxed as ordinary income to such U.S. Holder. Generally, "net capital gain" is the excess of (i) net long-term capital gain over (ii) net short-term capital loss, and "ordinary earnings" are the excess of (i) "earnings and profits" over (ii) net capital gain. A U.S. Holder that makes a QEF Election will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such amounts for each tax year in which Eurasian is a PFIC, regardless of whether such amounts are actually distributed to such U.S. Holder by Eurasian. However, for any tax year in which Eurasian is a PFIC and has no net income or gain, U.S. Holders that have made a QEF Election would not have any income inclusions as a result of the QEF Election. If a U.S. Holder that made a QEF Election has an income inclusion, such U.S. Holder may, subject to certain limitations, elect to defer payment of current U.S. federal income tax on such amounts, subject to an interest charge. If such U.S. Holder is not a corporation, any such interest paid will be treated as "personal interest", which is not deductible. A U.S. Holder that makes a timely and effective QEF Election with respect to Eurasian generally, (a) may receive a tax-free distribution from Eurasian to the extent that such distribution represents "earnings and profits" of Eurasian that were previously included in income by the U.S. Holder because of such QEF Election, and (b) will adjust such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in common shares to reflect the amount included in income or allowed as a tax-free distribution because of such QEF Election. In addition, a U.S. Holder that makes a QEF Election generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares. The procedure for making a QEF Election, and the U.S. federal income tax consequences of making a QEF Election, will depend on whether such QEF Election is timely. A QEF Election will be treated as "timely" if such QEF Election is made for the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period for common shares in which Eurasian was a PFIC. A U.S. Holder may make a timely QEF Election by filing the appropriate QEF Election documents at the time such U.S. Holder files a U.S. federal income tax return for such year. If a U.S. Holder does not make a timely and effective QEF Election for the first year in the U.S. Holder’s holding period for common shares, the U.S. Holder may still be able to make a timely and effective QEF Election in a subsequent year if such U.S. Holder also makes a "purging" election to recognize gain (which will be taxed under the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above) as if such common shares were sold for their fair market value on the day the QEF Election is effective. A QEF Election will apply to the tax year for which such QEF Election is timely made and to all subsequent tax years, unless such QEF Election is invalidated or terminated or the IRS consents to revocation of such QEF Election. If a U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election and, in a subsequent tax year, Eurasian ceases to be a PFIC, the QEF Election will remain in effect (although it will not be applicable) during those tax years in which Eurasian is not a PFIC. Accordingly, if Eurasian becomes a PFIC in another subsequent tax year, the QEF Election will be effective and the U.S. Holder will be subject to the QEF rules described above during any subsequent tax year in which Eurasian qualifies as a PFIC. For each tax year that Eurasian qualifies as a PFIC, Eurasian intends to: (a) make available to U.S. Holders, upon their written request, a “PFIC Annual Information Statement” as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1295-1(g) (or any successor Treasury Regulation) and (b) upon written request, use commercially reasonable efforts to provide all additional information that such U.S. Holder is required to obtain in connection with maintaining such QEF Election with regard to Eurasian. Eurasian may elect to provide such information on its website, www.EurasianMinerals.com. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the availability of, and procedure for making, a QEF Election. A U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621, including a PFIC Annual Information Statement, to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return. However, if Eurasian does not provide the required information 108 with regard to Eurasian, U.S. Holders will not be able to make a QEF Election for such entity and will continue to be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above that apply to Non-Electing U.S. Holders with respect to the taxation of gains and excess distributions. Mark-to-Market Election A U.S. Holder may make a Mark-to-Market Election only if the common shares are marketable stock. Common shares generally will be "marketable stock" if the common shares are regularly traded on, (a) a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC, (b) the national market system established pursuant to section 11A of the U.S. Exchange Act, or (c) a foreign securities exchange that is regulated or supervised by a governmental authority of the country in which the market is located, provided that, (i) such foreign exchange has trading volume, listing, financial disclosure, and meets other requirements and the laws of the country in which such foreign exchange is located, together with the rules of such foreign exchange, ensure that such requirements are actually enforced, and (ii) the rules of such foreign exchange ensure active trading of listed stocks. If Eurasian’s common shares are traded on such a qualified exchange or other market, the common shares generally will be "regularly traded" for any calendar year during which common shares are traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election with respect to its common shares generally will not be subject to the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above with respect to such common shares. However, if a U.S. Holder does not make a Mark-to-Market Election beginning in the first tax year of such U.S. Holder’s holding period for common shares or such U.S. Holder has not made a timely QEF Election, the rules of Section 1291 of the Code discussed above will apply to certain dispositions of, and distributions on, common shares. A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will include in ordinary income, for each tax year in which Eurasian is a PFIC, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the fair market value of common shares, as of the close of such tax year over (ii) such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in such common shares. A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will be allowed a deduction in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in common shares, over (ii) the fair market value of such common shares (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the Mark-to-Market Election for prior tax years). A U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election generally also will adjust such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in common shares to reflect the amount included in gross income or allowed as a deduction because of such Mark-to-Market Election. In addition, upon a sale or other taxable disposition of common shares, a U.S. Holder that makes a Mark-to-Market Election will recognize ordinary income or ordinary loss (not to exceed the excess, if any, of (i) the amount included in ordinary income because of such Mark-to-Market Election for prior tax years over (ii) the amount allowed as a deduction because of such Mark-to-Market Election for prior tax years). A U.S. Holder makes a Mark-to-Market Election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return. A Mark-to-Market Election applies to the tax year in which such Mark-to-Market Election is made and to each subsequent tax year, unless common shares cease to be "marketable stock" or the IRS consents to revocation of such election. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the availability of, and procedure for making, a Mark-to-Market Election. Other PFIC Rules Under Section 1291(f) of the Code, the IRS has issued proposed Treasury Regulations that, subject to certain exceptions, would cause a U.S. Holder that had not made a timely QEF Election to recognize gain (but not loss) upon certain transfers of common shares that would otherwise be tax-deferred (e.g., gifts and exchanges pursuant to corporate reorganizations). However, the specific U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. Holder may vary based on the manner in which common shares are transferred. Certain additional adverse rules will apply with respect to a U.S. Holder if Eurasian is a PFIC, regardless of whether such U.S. Holder makes a QEF Election. For example under Section 1298(b)(6) of the Code, a U.S. Holder that uses common shares as security for a loan will, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations, be treated as having made a taxable disposition of such common shares. Special rules also apply to the amount of foreign tax credit that a U.S. Holder may claim on a distribution from a PFIC. Subject to such special rules, foreign taxes paid with respect to any distribution in respect of stock in a PFIC are generally eligible for the foreign tax credit. The rules relating to distributions by a PFIC and their eligibility for the foreign tax credit are complicated, and a U.S. Holder should consult with their own tax advisor regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit with respect to distributions by a PFIC. 109 The PFIC rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the PFIC rules and how the PFIC rules may affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of common shares. Ownership and Disposition of Common Shares The following discussion is subject to the rules described above under the heading "Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules". Distributions on Common Shares Subject to the PFIC rules discussed above, a U.S. Holder that receives a distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to common shares will be required to include the amount of such distribution in gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the current or accumulated "earnings and profits" of Eurasian, as computed for U.S. federal income tax purposes. A dividend generally will be taxed to a U.S. Holder at ordinary income tax rates if Eurasian is a PFIC. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the current and accumulated "earnings and profits" of Eurasian, such distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. Holder's tax basis in common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such common shares. See "Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Shares" below. However, Eurasian may not maintain the calculations of earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, and each U.S. Holder should therefore assume that any distribution by Eurasian with respect to common shares will constitute ordinary dividend income. Dividends received on common shares generally will not be eligible for the "dividends received deduction". Subject to applicable limitations and provided Eurasian is eligible for the benefits of the Treaty, dividends paid by Eurasian to non- corporate U.S. Holders, including individuals, generally will be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains for dividends, provided certain holding period and other conditions are satisfied, including that Eurasian not be classified as a PFIC in the tax year of distribution or in the preceding tax year. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of such rules. Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Common Shares Subject to the PFIC rules discussed above, upon the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received and such U.S. Holder's tax basis in such common shares sold or otherwise disposed of. Subject to the PFIC rules discussed above, gain or loss recognized on such sale or other disposition generally will be long- term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the sale or other disposition, common shares have been held for more than one year. Preferential tax rates apply to long-term capital gain of a U.S. Holder that is an individual, estate, or trust. There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gain of a U.S. Holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital losses are subject to significant limitations under the Code. Additional Considerations Additional Tax on Passive Income Certain U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts (other than trusts that are exempt from tax) will be subject to a 3.8% tax on all or a portion of their "net investment income", which includes dividends on the common shares and net gains from the disposition of the common shares. Further, excess distributions treated as dividends, gains treated as excess distributions under the PFIC rules discussed above, and mark-to-market inclusions and deductions are all included in the calculation of net investment income. Treasury Regulations provide, subject to the election described in the following paragraph, that solely for purposes of this additional tax, that distributions of previously taxed income will be treated as dividends and included in net investment income subject to the additional 3.8% tax. Additionally, to determine the amount of any capital gain from the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares that will be subject to the additional tax on net investment income, a U.S. Holder who has made a QEF Election will be required to recalculate its basis in the common shares excluding QEF basis adjustments. Alternatively, a U.S. Holder may make an election which will be effective with respect to all interests in a PFIC for which a QEF Election has been made and which is held in that year or acquired in future years. Under this election, a U.S. Holder pays the additional 3.8% tax on QEF income inclusions and on gains calculated after giving effect to related tax basis adjustments. U.S. Holders that are individuals, estates or trusts should consult their own tax advisors regarding the applicability of this tax to any of their income or gains in respect of the common shares. 110 Receipt of Foreign Currency The amount of any distribution paid to a U.S. Holder in foreign currency, or on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares, generally will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency based on the exchange rate applicable on the date of receipt (regardless of whether such foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time). A U.S. Holder will have a basis in the foreign currency equal to its U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt. Any U.S. Holder who converts or otherwise disposes of the foreign currency after the date of receipt may have a foreign currency exchange gain or loss that would be treated as ordinary income or loss, and generally will be U.S. source income or loss for foreign tax credit purposes. Different rules apply to U.S. Holders who use the accrual method. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign currency. Foreign Tax Credit Subject to the PFIC rules discussed above, a U.S. Holder that pays (whether directly or through withholding) Canadian income tax with respect to dividends paid on common shares generally will be entitled, at the election of such U.S. Holder, to receive either a deduction or a credit for such Canadian income tax paid. Generally, a credit will reduce a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. Holder’s income subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. Holder during a year. Complex limitations apply to the foreign tax credit, including the general limitation that the credit cannot exceed the proportionate share of a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability that such U.S. Holder’s "foreign source" taxable income bears to such U.S. Holder’s worldwide taxable income. In applying this limitation, a U.S. Holder’s various items of income and deduction must be classified, under complex rules, as either "foreign source" or "U.S. source". Generally, dividends paid by a foreign corporation should be treated as foreign source for this purpose, and gains recognized on the sale of stock of a foreign corporation by a U.S. Holder should be treated as U.S. source for this purpose, except as otherwise provided in an applicable income tax treaty, and if an election is properly made under the Code. However, the amount of a distribution with respect to common shares that is treated as a "dividend" may be lower for U.S. federal income tax purposes than it is for Canadian federal income tax purposes, resulting in a reduced foreign tax credit allowance to a U.S. Holder. In addition, this limitation is calculated separately with respect to specific categories of income. The foreign tax credit rules are complex, and each U.S. Holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the foreign tax credit rules. Backup Withholding and Information Reporting Under U.S. federal income tax law and Treasury Regulations, certain categories of U.S. Holders must file information returns with respect to their investment in, or involvement in, a foreign corporation. For example, U.S. return disclosure obligations (and related penalties) are imposed on individuals who are U.S. Holders that hold certain specified foreign financial assets in excess of certain threshold amounts. The definition of specified foreign financial assets includes not only financial accounts maintained in foreign financial institutions, but also, unless held in accounts maintained by a financial institution, any stock or security issued by a non-U.S. person, any financial instrument or contract held for investment that has an issuer or counterparty other than a U.S. person and any interest in a foreign entity. U.S. Holders may be subject to these reporting requirements unless their common shares are held in an account at certain financial institutions. Penalties for failure to file certain of these information returns are substantial. U.S. Holders should consult with their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing information returns, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8938. Payments made within the U.S. or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, of dividends on, and proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of, common shares will generally be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax, at the rate of 28%, if a U.S. Holder, (a) fails to furnish such U.S. Holder’s correct U.S. taxpayer identification number (generally on IRS Form W-9), (b) furnishes an incorrect U.S. taxpayer identification number, (c) is notified by the IRS that such U.S. Holder has previously failed to properly report items subject to backup withholding tax, or (d) fails to certify, under penalty of perjury, that such U.S. Holder has furnished its correct U.S. taxpayer identification number and that the IRS has not notified such U.S. Holder that it is subject to backup withholding tax. However, certain exempt persons generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding rules. Any amounts withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will be refunded, if such U.S. Holder furnishes required information to the IRS in a timely manner. The discussion of reporting requirements set forth above is not intended to constitute a complete description of all reporting requirements that may apply to a U.S. Holder. A failure to satisfy certain reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax, and under certain circumstances, such an extension may apply to assessments of amounts unrelated to any unsatisfied reporting requirement. Each U.S. Holder should consult its own tax 111 advisors regarding the information reporting and backup withholding rules. 10.F. Dividends and Paying Agents --- No Disclosure Necessary --- 10.G.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Credit Risk The Company is exposed to credit risk by holding cash and cash equivalents and receivables. This risk is minimized by holding a significant portion of the funds in Canadian banks. The Company’s exposure with respect to its receivables is primarily related to royalty streams, recovery of exploration evaluation costs, and convertible promissory notes. Interest Rate Risk The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because of fluctuating interest rates. Management believes the interest rate risk is low given interest rates on promissory notes is fixed and the current low global interest rate environment. Fluctuations in market rates is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s operations due to the short term to maturity and no penalty cashable feature of its cash equivalents. Market Risk The Company is exposed to market risk because of the fluctuating values of its publicly traded marketable securities and other company investments. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its investments. Based on the December 31, 2016 portfolio values, a 10% increase or decrease in effective market values would increase or decrease net shareholders’ equity by approximately $48,000. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital to ensure the Company’s expenditures will not exceed available resources. Commodity Risk The Company’s royalty revenues are derived from a royalty interest and are based on the extraction and sale of precious and base minerals and metals. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of metals discovered. Metal prices have historically fluctuated widely. Consequently, the economic viability of the Company’s royalty interests cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in mineral prices. Currency Risk Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. The Company operates in Canada, Haiti, Turkey, Georgia, Sweden, Australia and the U.S.A. The Company funds cash calls to its subsidiary companies outside of Canada in US dollars and a portion of its expenditures are also incurred in local currencies. ITEM 12.

MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS --- No Disclosure Necessary --- ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure Controls and Procedures The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that material information related to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), by others within those entities on a timely basis so that appropriate decisions can be made regarding public disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2016. The CEO and CFO concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2016, were effective to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting The Company’s management is responsible for designing, establishing and maintaining a system of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) to provide reasonable assurance that the financial information prepared by the Company for external purposes is reliable and has been recorded, processed and reported in an accurate and timely manner in accordance with GAAP. The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities. The Audit Committee fulfills its role of ensuring the integrity of the reported information through its review of the interim and annual financial statements. Management reviewed the results of their assessment with the Company’s Audit Committee. Because of its inherent limitations, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all possible misstatements or frauds. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. To evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, Management has used the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013), which is a suitable, recognized control framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and concluded that such internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2016. Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls The Company's management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our Internal Controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions 113 about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. As a non-accelerated filer, the Company is not required to provide the registered public accounting firm’s attestation report on management’s assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Form 20-F, that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. ITEM 16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT The Company’s Board has determined that Messrs. Levet, Bayley and Okada qualify as audit committee financial experts (as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K under the U.S. Exchange Act), are financially sophisticated (as determined in accordance with Section 803B(2)(iii) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide), and are independent (as determined under U.S. Exchange Act Rule 10A-3 and Section 803A of the NYSE MKT Company Guide). ITEM 16B. CODE OF ETHICS The Board of Directors of the Company has responsibility for the stewardship of the Company including responsibility for strategic planning, identification of the principal risks of the Company’s business and implementation of appropriate systems to manage these risks, succession planning (including appointing, training and monitoring senior management), communications with investors and the financial community and the integrity of the Company’s internal control and management information systems. To facilitate meeting this responsibility, the Board of Directors seeks to foster a culture of ethical conduct by striving to ensure the Company carries out its business in line with high business and moral standards and applicable legal and financial requirements. In that regard, the Board has:   adopted a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code”) for its directors, officers, employees and consultants and a written Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for its CEO and Senior Financial Officers. established a whistleblower policy which details complaint procedures for financial concerns. Copies of the Code are available without charge to any person upon request from the Company’s CFO at http://www.eurasianminerals.com or at Eurasian’s headquarters at Suite 501, 543 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1X8. The Board must also comply with the conflict of interest provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act, as well as the relevant securities regulatory instruments, in order to ensure that directors exercise independent judgment in considering transactions and agreements in respect of which a director or Executive Officer has a material interest.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) December 31, 2016 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and Directors of Eurasian Minerals Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Eurasian Minerals Inc., which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of loss, comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eurasian Minerals Inc. as at December 31, 2016 and 2015 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN Eurasian Minerals Inc. (the “Company” or “Eurasian” or “EMX”) and its subsidiaries operates as a royalty and prospect generator engaged in the exploring for, and generating royalties from, metals and minerals properties. The Company’s royalty and exploration portfolio mainly consists of properties in North America, Turkey, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company’s common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”) and on the NYSE MKT under the symbol of “EMX”. The Company’s head office is located at 501 - 543 Granville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 1X8. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets, discharge its liabilities and continue in operation for the following twelve months. Management estimates it has sufficient funding for operations for the ensuing year, which results in the going concern assumption being an appropriate underlying concept for the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. Some of the Company’s activities for exploration and evaluation assets are located in emerging nations and, consequently, may be subject to a higher level of risk compared to other developed countries. Operations, the status of mineral property rights and the recoverability of investments in emerging nations can be affected by changing economic, legal, regulatory and political situations. At the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not identified a known body of commercial grade mineral on any of its exploration and evaluation assets. The ability of the Company to realize the costs it has incurred to date on these exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the Company identifying a commercial mineral body, to finance its development costs and to resolve any environmental, regulatory or other constraints which may hinder the successful development of the exploration and evaluation assets. These consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted, which is the functional currency of the parent company and its subsidiaries except as to Bullion Monarch Mining, Inc., the holder of a royalty income stream whose functional currency is the United States (“US”) dollar. 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Statement of Compliance These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss or available for sale, which are stated at their fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting except for cash flow information. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Eurasian, the parent company, and its controlled subsidiaries, after the elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions. Page 7 EURASIAN MINERALS INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Basis of Consolidation (Continued) Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Company has exposure to variable returns from its involvement and has the ability to use power over the investee to affect its returns. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether the Company controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company until the date on which control ceases. The accounts of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions are eliminated. The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries are as follows: Functional and Reporting Currency The functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The functional currency for the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar except the functional currency of the operations of Bullion Monarch which is the US dollar. The functional currency determinations were conducted through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. Translation of transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are re-measured. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured at the rate of exchange at each financial position date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at period end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in profit or loss. On translation of the entities whose functional currency is other than the Canadian dollar, revenues and expenses are translated at the exchange rates approximating those in effect on the date of the transactions. Assets and liabilities are translated at the rate of exchange at the reporting date. Exchange gains and losses, including results of re-translation, are recorded in the foreign currency translation reserve.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Financial Instruments All financial instruments are classified into one of the following four categories: a) Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) Financial assets and financial liabilities classified as FVTPL are acquired or incurred principally for the purpose of selling or repurchasing them in the near term. They are recognized at fair value based on market prices, with any resulting gains and losses reflected in profit or loss for the period in which they arise. b) Held-to-maturity financial assets Held-to-maturity financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that an entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. They are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method less any impairment loss. A gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognized or impaired, and through the amortization process. c) Available for sale financial assets Available for sale (“AFS”) financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available for sale, or that are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or FVTPL. They are measured at fair value. Fair value is determined based on market prices. Equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market are measured at cost. Gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income (loss) until the financial asset is derecognized, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized in profit or loss for the period. d) Loans and receivables and other financial liabilities Loans and receivables and other financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method less any impairment loss. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, investments, receivables, restricted cash, reclamation bonds, convertible notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and advances from joint venture partners. Unless otherwise noted the fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values. Cash and cash equivalents are classified as loans and receivables. Cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. Warrants held through investments are classified as derivative financial assets at FVTPL and are accounted for at fair value. For warrants that are not traded on an exchange, no market value is readily available. When there are sufficient and reliable observable market inputs, a valuation technique is used; if no such market inputs are available, the warrants are valued at intrinsic value, which is equal to the higher of the market value of the underlying security less the exercise price of the warrant, or zero. Page 9 EURASIAN MINERALS INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Investments (Marketable securities) are classified as FVTPL and are measured at fair market value. Marketable securities transferred to the Company as part of an acquisition are classified as AFS and are carried at fair market value. Changes in fair value of FVTPL assets are reflected in profit or loss in the period in which they occur. Changes in fair value of AFS assets are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income on the statement of financial position until sold or if there is an other than temporary impairment in value. Reclamation bonds are classified as financial assets held-to-maturity. The Company classifies its restricted cash and certain receivables as loans and receivables and its accounts payable and accrued liabilities and advances from joint venture partners as other financial liabilities. Certain receivables related to the sale of Akarca (Note 4) are considered to be derivative financial assets as they are subject to variations in gold price per ounce on record date and final price received and are accordingly classified as FVTPL. The derivative receivable is recorded at fair value each period until final settlement occurs, with changes in fair value reflected in profit or loss for the period in which they arise. Impairment of Financial Assets Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial assets, the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets have been impacted. For all financial assets, objective evidence of impairment could include:  Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty;  Default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; or,  It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization. For certain categories of financial assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually, they are subsequently assessed for impairment on a collective basis. The carrying amount of financial assets is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss. With the exception of FVTPL marketable securities, if in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized. In respect of AFS marketable securities, impairment losses previously recognized through profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized directly in equity. Convertible Notes Receivable The notes receivable are hybrid financial assets that consist of a note receivable component and a separate equity conversion component. The notes receivable are measured at fair value on initial recognition by discounting the stream of future interest and principal payments at the rate of interest prevailing at the date of the issue for instruments of similar Page 10 EURASIAN MINERALS INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) term and risk. Interest income based on the rate of the note and the accretion of the additional interest to the amount that will be receivable on maturity are recognized through profit and loss as interest income. The equity conversion option is an embedded derivative that has been separated from the notes receivable and is valued based on residual value. The embedded derivative is not revalued subsequent to initial measurement unless terms of the original loan are changed. Investments in Associated Companies The Company accounts for its long-term investments in affiliated companies over which it has significant influence on the equity basis of accounting, whereby the investment is initially recorded at cost, adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of earnings or losses and reduced by dividends received. The Company assesses its equity investments for impairment if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the equity investment and that the event or events has an impact on the estimated future cash flow of the investment that can be reliably estimated. Objective evidence of impairment of equity investments includes: Significant financial difficulty of the associated companies;   Becoming probable that the associated companies will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization; or,  National or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults of the associated companies. Exploration and evaluation assets and exploration expenditures Acquisition costs for exploration and evaluation assets, net of recoveries, are capitalized on a property-by-property basis. Acquisition costs include cash consideration and the value of common shares, based on recent issue prices, issued for exploration and evaluation assets pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Exploration expenditures, net of recoveries, are charged to operations as incurred. After a property is determined by management to be commercially feasible, an impairment test is conducted and subsequent development expenditures on the property will be capitalized. When there is little prospect of further work on a property being carried out by the Company or its partners, when a property is abandoned, or when the capitalized costs are no longer considered recoverable, the related property costs are written down to management’s estimate of their net recoverable amount. The costs related to a property from which there is production, together with the costs of production equipment, will be depleted and amortized using the unit-of- production method. An exploration and evaluation asset acquired under an option agreement, where payments are made at the sole discretion of the Company, is capitalized at the time of payment. Option payments received are treated as a reduction of the carrying value of the related acquisition cost for the mineral property until the payments are in excess of acquisition costs, at which time they are then credited to profit or loss. Option payments are at the discretion of the optionee and, accordingly, are accounted for when receipt is reasonably assured. Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with IAS 18 Revenue and based upon amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying royalty agreements. Specifically, royalty revenue is recognized in accordance with the terms of the underlying royalty agreements subject to (i) when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the risks and rewards having been transferred; (iii) the royalty or stream being fixed or determinable; and (iv) the collectability of the royalty being reasonably assured. In some instances, the Company will not have access to sufficient information to make a Page 11 EURASIAN MINERALS INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) reasonable estimate of revenue and, accordingly, revenue recognition is deferred until management can make a reasonable estimate. Royalty revenue may be subject to adjustment upon final settlement of estimated metal prices, weights, and assays. Adjustments to revenue from metal prices are recorded monthly and other adjustments are recorded on final settlement and are offset against revenue when incurred. Royalty interests Royalty interests in mineral properties include acquired royalty interests in production stage and exploration stage properties. In accordance with IAS 38 Intangible Assets, the cost of acquired royalty interests in mineral properties is capitalized as intangible assets. Acquisition costs of production stage royalty interests are depleted using the units of production method over the life of the related mineral property, which is calculated using estimated reserves. Acquisition costs of royalty interests on exploration stage mineral properties, where there are no estimated reserves, are not amortized. At such time as the associated exploration stage mineral interests are converted to estimated reserves, the cost basis is amortized over the remaining life of the mineral property, using the estimated reserves. The carrying values of exploration stage mineral interests are evaluated for impairment at such time as information becomes available indicating that production will not occur in the future. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the price paid for the acquisition of a consolidated entity over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is allocated to the cash generating unit to which it relates. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Impairment is determined by assessing if the carrying value of a cash generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, exceeds its recoverable amount. Property and equipment Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Building is depreciated using a 5 year straightline method. Equipment is depreciated over its estimated useful life using the declining balance method at a rate of 20% per annum. Depreciation on equipment used directly on exploration projects is included in exploration expenditures for that mineral property. Decommissioning liabilities Decommissioning liabilities are recognized for the expected obligations related to the retirement of long-lived tangible assets that arise from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of such assets. A decommissioning liability is recognized in the period in which it is incurred and when a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the liability can be made with a corresponding decommissioning cost recognized by increasing the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The decommissioning cost is subsequently allocated in a rational and systematic method over the underlying asset’s useful life. The initial fair value of the liability is accreted, by charges to profit or loss, to its estimated future value. Environmental disturbance restoration During the operating life of an asset, events such as infractions of environmental laws or regulations may occur. These events are not related to the normal operation of the asset and are referred to as environmental disturbance restoration Page 12 EURASIAN MINERALS INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) provisions. The costs associated with these provisions are accrued and charged to profit or loss in the period in which the event giving rise to the liability occurs. Any subsequent adjustments to these provisions due to changes in estimates are also charged to profit or loss in the period of adjustment. These costs are not capitalized as part of the long-lived assets’ carrying value. Impairment of assets Events or changes in circumstances can give rise to significant impairment charges or reversals of impairment in a particular year. The Company assesses its cash generating units annually to determine whether any indication of impairment exists. Where an indicator of impairment exists, an estimate of the recoverable amount is made, which is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The determination of the recoverable amount for value in use requires the use of estimates and assumptions such as long-term commodity prices, discount rates, future capital requirements, exploration potential and future operating performance. Fair value is determined as the amount that would be obtained from the sale of the asset in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. Share-based payments Share-based payments include option and stock grants granted to directors, employees and non-employees. The Company accounts for share-based compensation using a fair value based method with respect to all share-based payments measured and recognized, to directors, employees and non-employees. For directors and employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is measured at the date of grant. For non-employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is measured on the earlier of the date at which the counterparty performance is complete, or the date the performance commitment is reached, or the date at which the equity instruments are granted if they are fully vested and non-forfeitable. For directors, employees and non-employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is accrued and charged to operations, with the offsetting credit to share based payment reserve for options, and commitment to issue shares for stock grants over the vesting period. If and when the stock options are exercised, the applicable amounts are transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital. When the stock grants are issued, the applicable fair value is transferred from commitment to issue shares to share capital. Option based compensation awards are calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model while stock grants are valued at the fair value on the date of grant. Income taxes Income tax expense consists of current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax is calculated providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable income nor loss. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Page 13 EURASIAN MINERALS INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously. A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized. Income (loss) per share Basic income or loss per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss for the year by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted income or loss per share is calculated whereby the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted income or loss per share assumes that the deemed proceeds received from the exercise of stock options, share purchase warrants and their equivalents would be used to repurchase common shares of the Company at the average market price during the year, if they are determined to have a dilutive effect. Existing stock options and share purchase warrants have not been included in the current year computation of diluted loss per share as to do so would be anti-dilutive. For the years presented the basic and diluted losses per share are the same. Valuation of equity units issued in private placements The Company has adopted a residual value method with respect to the measurement of shares and warrants issued as private placement units. The residual value method first allocates value to the more easily measurable component based on fair value and then the residual value, if any, to the less easily measurable component. The fair value of the common shares issued in the private placements was determined to be the more easily measurable component and were valued at their fair value, as determined by the closing quoted bid price on the day prior to the issuance date. The balance, if any, was allocated to the attached warrants. Any fair value attributed to the warrants is recorded in reserves. Segment reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segment, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer. Classification of investments as subsidiaries, joint ventures, associated company and portfolio investments Classification of investments requires judgement as to whether the Company controls, has joint control of or significant influence over the strategic financial and operating decisions relating to the activity of the investee. In assessing the level of control or influence that the Company has over an investment, management considers ownership percentages, board representation as well as other relevant provisions in shareholder agreements. If an investor holds 20% or more of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. Conversely, if the investor holds less than 20% of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the investor does not have significant influence, unless such influence can be clearly demonstrated.

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Accounting pronouncements not yet effective The following standards and pronouncements have been issued by the IASB and have not yet been adopted by the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new and amended standards are expected to have on its consolidated financial statements. IFRS 9 requires financial assets to be classified into three measurement categories on initial recognition: those measured at fair value through profit and loss, those measured at fair value through other comprehensive income and those measured at amortized cost. Measurement and classification of financial assets is dependent on the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. For financial liabilities, the standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements. In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("IFRS 15"), which supersedes IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue, IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate, IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers, and SIC 31 Revenue - Barter Transactions involving Advertising Services. IFRS 15 establishes a single five-step model framework for determining the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a contract with a customer. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 16 Leases was issued in January 2016 (effective January 1, 2019) and provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Critical Accounting Judgments and Significant Estimates and Uncertainties The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported revenue and expenses during the periods presented therein. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgments and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, royalty revenues and expenses. Management bases its judgments and estimates on historical experience and on other various factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The Company has identified the following critical accounting policies in which significant judgments, estimates and assumptions are made and where actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions and may materially affect financial results or the financial position reported in future periods. Further details of the nature of these assumptions and conditions may be found in the relevant notes to the consolidated financial statements. a) Royalty interest and related depletion In accordance with the Company’s accounting policy, royalty interests are evaluated on a periodic basis to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If any such indication exists, a formal estimate of recoverable amount is performed and an impairment loss recognized to the extent that carrying amount exceeds recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of a royalty asset is measured at the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The determination of fair value and value in use requires management to make estimates and assumptions about expected production and sales volumes, the proportion of areas subject to royalty rights, commodity prices (considering current and historical prices, price trends and related factors), and reserves. These estimates and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty; hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter these projections, which may impact the recoverable amount of the assets. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying value of the assets may be further impaired or the impairment charge reduced with the impact recorded in profit or loss.

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Critical Accounting Judgments and Significant Estimates and Uncertainties (Continued) b) Goodwill Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. Impairment is determined by assessing if the carrying value of a cash generating unit, including the allocated goodwill, exceeds its recoverable amount. The assessment of the recoverable amount used in the goodwill impairment analysis is subject to similar judgments and estimates as described above for property and equipment and royalty interests. c) Exploration and Evaluation Assets Recorded costs of exploration and evaluation assets are not intended to reflect present or future values of exploration and evaluation assets. The recorded costs are subject to measurement uncertainty and it is reasonably possible, based on existing knowledge, that a change in future conditions could require a material change in the recognized amount. d) Taxation The Company’s accounting policy for taxation requires management’s judgment as to the types of arrangements considered to be a tax on income in contrast to an operating cost. Judgment is also required in assessing whether deferred tax assets and certain deferred tax liabilities are recognized on the statement of financial position. Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unused tax losses, capital losses and temporary differences, are recognized only where it is considered probable that they will be recovered, which is dependent on the generation of sufficient future taxable profits. Deferred tax liabilities arising from temporary differences caused principally by the expected royalty revenues generated by the royalty property are recognized unless expected offsetting tax losses are sufficient to offset the taxable income and therefore, taxable income is not expected to occur in the foreseeable future. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. These depend on estimates of future production and sales volumes, commodity prices, and reserves. Judgments are also required about the application of income tax legislation in foreign jurisdictions. These judgments and assumptions are subject to risk and uncertainty, hence there is a possibility that changes in circumstances will alter expectations, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognized on the statement of financial position and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognized. In such circumstances, some or the entire carrying amount of recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a corresponding credit or charge to profit or loss. Information about critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the following: a) Functional Currencies The functional currency of each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Determination of the functional currency may involve certain judgments to determine the primary economic environment and the Company reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change in events and conditions, which determined the primary economic environment.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT (Continued) During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company sold certain foreign operations for a gain of $6,834,999. Included in this gain was property and equipment with a net book value of $23,555. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company acquired and sold certain exploration and evaluation assets for a net gain of $5,393,305. Included in this gain was the acquisition of property and equipment with a net book value of $7,013. Also, during the year ended December 31, 2015 the Company sold property and equipment with a net book value of $21,041 for total proceeds of $36,933 for a net gain of $15,892, and included in exploration and evaluation expenditures is a loss disposal of property and equipment with a net book value of $6,490. 7. CONVERTIBLE NOTES RECEIVABLE On February 5, 2015, the Company entered into a convertible loan agreement with IG Copper, LLC (“IGC”), an associated company of EMX (Note 8) allowing IGC to borrow up to a maximum of US$500,000 (“IGC Loan”). The loan carries an interest rate of 8% per annum and the full amount of the principal and interest was due January 3, 2017. The full US$500,000 has been drawn and during the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into an amended and restated loan agreement with IGC such that the IGC Loan shall include any further sums that may be advanced by the Company to, or paid by the Company on behalf of IGC from time to time prior to January 3, 2017. As such, US$198,953 of expenses paid by the Company on behalf of IGC were added to the IGC Loan. At any time prior to the maturity date, the Company had the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding amount of the loan into membership units at US$6.00 per unit. If IGC completed a financing at less than US$6.00 per unit, the conversion price will be adjusted to the price used in the financing. Each membership unit represents a single membership interest in IGC. Additionally, if subsequent to the date of the Amended Agreement, IGC completes a financing and, as part of that financing, issues warrants to purchase Units or other securities of IGC, then the Company shall be entitled, upon conversion of the IGC Loan and accrued and unpaid interest, to also receive warrants to purchase Units or other securities of IGC on the same terms as the warrants issued in such financing. During fiscal 2016, the Company advanced an additional US $400,000. On August 15, 2016, the Company converted the full amount of the outstanding loan, US$1,184,511 inclusive of accrued interest of US $85,558, at US$5.00 per unit, which was the unit price of the most recently completed financing, into 236,902 membership units and 236,902 warrants of IGC. 8. INVESTMENTS IN ASSOCIATED COMPANIES The Company has a 39% (2015 – 42%; 2014 – 42%) equity investment in IGC. At December 31, 2016, the Company, including conversion of a note receivable (Note 7), has invested an aggregate of US$8,967,010 towards its investment (December 31, 2015 - US$7,782,500; 2014 – US$7,782,500). At December 31, 2016, the Company’s investment including dilution gain less its share of accumulated equity losses was $4,992,823 (2015 - $3,333,491; 2014 – 4,072,737). The Company’s share of the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $1,295,568 (2015 - $1,062,146; 2014 - $1,086,649). The Company has a minority position on the Board of IGC, and does not control operational decisions. The Company’s judgment is that it has significant influence, but not control and accordingly equity accounting is appropriate. At December 31, 2014, the Company had a 49% equity investment in a private Turkish company (“Turkish Co”) with Chesser Resources Ltd; an Australian Stock Exchange listed Exploration Company. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company purchased the remaining 51% interest in the Turkish company (Note 9). As such, the books and records of the Turkish company are consolidated as a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company. The carrying value of the investment prior to the purchase and as at December 31, 2014 was $Nil and the Company’s share of the net loss of the former joint venture for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $Nil (2015 - $Nil; 2014 - $Nil).

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS Acquisition Costs At December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014, the Company has capitalized the following acquisition costs on its exploration and evaluation assets: During the year ended Dececmber 31, 2016, the Company received a $129,820 (US$100,000) annual option payment related to an exploration and option to purchase agreement for the Superior West project with Kennecott Exploration Company (“Kennecott”). Pursuant to Company policy, $105,100 has been applied against the Superior West capitalized costs, and $24,720 has been included in exploration income as option payments. Also during the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company sold its Sisorta project in Turkey and all capitalized costs were recovered. During the year ended December 31, 2015 the Company wrote-off $56,085 of capitalized exploration costs related to the termination of a 1% net smelter returns royalty (“NSR”) agreement on one of its interests in Haiti. During the year ended December 31, 2014 the Company wrote-off previously capitalized acquisition costs of $707,567 which related to the Jasper Canyon and Silver Bell projects in the US. All claims for the Jasper Canyon and Silver Bell are in good standing and held by the Company, but Management has determined that there was little prospect of significant work on these claims being carried out by the Company or its partners in the foreseeable future. Asia Pacific (Australia) exploration licenses The Company’s Australian properties are comprised of contiguous exploration licenses along the Koonenberry gold belt in New South Wales, Australia. The Australian properties are acquired either directly through staking or through agreements with license holders. Koonenberry - Perry & Armstrong In 2013, the Company earned its 100% ownership of a single exploration license and the vendor’s interest reverted to a 2% NSR. The Company has the right to buy the 2% NSR (after bankable feasibility study) for consideration equivalent to 10% of the “Proved Ore Reserves”, as defined in the Code for Reporting of Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the “JORC Code”) set by the Australasian Joint Ore Reserves Committee, of gold contained within the tenement at a price of US$30 per ounce of gold. Koonenberry - Arastra In 2013, the Company by mutual agreement terminated an option agreement with Arastra Exploration Pty Ltd (“Arastra) after earning a 50% interest in four exploration licenses. As part of the termination the 50% interest earned by the Company was exchanged for a 100% ownership in one of the licenses (subject to a 2% NSR in favor of Arastra), and a 1% Page 21 RegionPropertiesDecember 31, 2016December 31, 2015December 31, 2014Asia PacificVarious81,124$ 81,124$ 81,124$ HaitiVarious- - 56,085 SwedenVarious16,671 16,671 16,671 Viad royalties421,084 421,084 421,084 TurkeyAlankoy153,960 153,960 153,960 Sisorta- 131,440 - Trab78,587 78,587 78,587 United StatesSuperior West, Arizona1,000,479 1,105,579 1,179,280 of AmericaYerington, Nevada393,095 393,095 393,095 Total2,145,000$ 2,381,540$ 2,379,886$ EURASIAN MINERALS INC.

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS (Continued) NSR against the other three licenses. Arastra relinquished their 3 tenements in 2015, accordingly EMX no longer holds the 1% NSR. Koonenberry - Rockwell In 2013 an agreement with Rockwell Resources Pty Ltd was terminated and the Company was granted a NSR of 0.5% in and over the tenement held by Rockwell. Koonenberry - Bates The Company holds 100% in two exploration licenses and the vendor’s interest has reverted to a 2% NSR. The Company has the right to buy the 2% NSR (after bankable feasibility study) for consideration equivalent to 10% of the “Proved Ore Reserves”, as defined in the “JORC Code”, of gold contained within the tenement at a price of US$30 per ounce of gold. In 2015 the Company relinquished one of the two tenements and further reduced the area of the remaining tenement. The Company signed a letter of agreement with Bates, should the Company re-apply for the areas within 12 months EMX would honor a similar NSR. In February 2014, the Company signed an exploration and option agreement with North Queensland Mining Pty Ltd. (“NQM”), a privately-held Australian company, giving NQM the right to acquire the Company’s Koonenberry exploration licenses in New South Wales, Australia. NQM will bear responsibility of satisfying all existing work commitments and honoring all underlying property agreements during the term of the Agreement. NQM has the option to earn a 100% interest in the EMX subsidiary that holds the licenses, with EMX retaining a 3% production royalty. Asia Pacific (New Zealand) exploration licenses In September 2014, and amended in December 2015 the Company signed an option agreement with Land & Mineral Limited (“L&M”), a privately-held Australian company, giving L&M the right to acquire Hauraki Gold Ltd. (“Hauraki”), the wholly-owned EMX subsidiary that controls the Neavesville gold-silver property located in the Hauraki goldfield of New Zealand’s North Island.

ROYALTY INTEREST Changes in royalty interest for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014: During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company acquired a 2% NSR royalty on all precious metals and a 1% NSR royalty on all other minerals for the Maggie Creek property (non-producing) in Nevada, and a 1% NSR royalty on all minerals for the Afgan property (non-producing) in Nevada from Golden Predator US Holdings Corp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Till Capital Ltd. (“TCL”). In consideration of the acquisition, the Company issued 250,000 of its common shares to TCL valued at $145,000. Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block The Company holds an interest in the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block in Nevada which includes the following Royalty Properties: Leeville Mine: Located in Eureka County, Nevada, the Company is receiving a continuing 1% gross smelter return royalty (“GSRR”). East Ore Body Mine: Located in Eureka County, Nevada, the property is currently being mined and the Company is receiving a continuing 1% GSRR. North Pipeline: Located in Lander County, Nevada. Should the property become producing, the Company will receive a production royalty of US$0.50 per yard of ore processed or 4% of net profit, whichever is greater. During the year ended December 31, 2016 $2,227,322 (2015 - $1,609,553; 2014 – 2,247,334) in royalty income was included in operations offset by a 5% direct gold tax and depletion. Impairment of Non-Current Assets The Company’s policy for accounting for impairment of non-current assets is to use the higher of the estimates of fair value less cost of disposal of these assets or value in use. The Company uses valuation techniques that require significant judgments and assumptions, including those with respect to future production levels, future metal prices and discount rates. Non-current assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company continuously reviews the production of gold from the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Page 33 Balance, December 31, 201335,063,725$ Adjusted for:Depletion(1,334,845) Impairment charge(7,371,765) Cumulative translation adjustments2,970,845 Balance, December 31, 201429,327,960 Adjusted for:Depletion(1,716,848) Impairment charge(3,973,699) Cumulative translation adjustments5,161,567 Balance, December 31, 201528,798,980 Adjusted for:Acquisition145,000 Depletion(2,163,221) Cumulative translation adjustments(949,607) Balance, December 31, 201625,831,152$ EURASIAN MINERALS INC.

ROYALTY INTEREST (Continued) Block and expected long term gold prices to be realized. As a result, periodically the Company revises its estimated annual gold production over the expected mine life and adjusts it’s long term gold price. As a result of these adjustments, the Company recorded $Nil (2015 - $3,973,699; 2014 – $7,371,765) in impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2016 related to the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block and related assets that make up the same cash-generating unit (“CGU”). 11. RECLAMATION BONDS Reclamation bonds are held as security towards future exploration work and the related future potential cost of reclamation of the Company’s land and unproven mineral interests. Once reclamation of the properties is complete, the bonds will be returned to the Company. 12. GOODWILL The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid during fiscal 2012 for the acquisition of Bullion Monarch Mining Inc. over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired. Change in goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014: The Company applies a one-step approach to determine if the Carlin Trend Royalty Claim Block and the related assets within the same CGU are impaired (Note 10). The impairment loss is the amount by which the CGU’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Goodwill has been written down in conjunction with the decline of $1,518,328 (2015 - $3,047,605; 2014 - $2,248,057) of the related deferred income tax liability.

Not included in this CGU is a $200,000 royalty interest held in Serbia and $145,000 royalty interest in Nevada, USA. 18. RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company considers items included in shareholders’ equity as capital. The Company’s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. As at December 31, 2016, the Company had working capital of $6,002,318 (December 31, 2015 - $5,787,109). The Company has continuing royalty income that will vary depending on royalty ounces received, the price of gold, and foreign exchange rates on US royalty payments. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company has sufficient working capital to undertake it’s current business plan. However, should the Company undertake anything over and above these plans, management will need additional sources of working capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares through public and/or private placements, sell assets, or return capital to shareholders. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. Fair Value The Company characterizes inputs used in determining fair value using a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs depending on the degree to which they are observable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:    Level 1: inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active markets are those in which transactions occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 valuations are based on inputs, including quoted forward prices for commodities, market interest rates, and volatility factors, which can be observed or corroborated in the market place. Level 3: inputs that are less observable, unavoidable or where the observable data does not support the majority of the instruments’ fair value.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 18. RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) As at December 31, 2016, there were no changes in the levels in comparison to December 31, 2015. Financial instruments measured at fair value on the statement of financial position are summarized in levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows: The carrying value of receivables (excluding the receivable related to the sale of AES, Note 9), accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and advances from joint venture partners approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Accounts receivable, including both long and current portions related to the sale of a AES (Note 9) were valued using a pricing model which require a variety of inputs, such as expected gold prices and foreign exchange rates. These receivables are valued using observable market commodity prices and thereby classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company updated the model for changes in expected long term gold prices. As such, the Company recorded a loss on the change in assumpitions of $120,900 (2015 - $Nil) which has been included in Interest income and other items in the statement of comprehensive loss. The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, interest rate risk, market risk, liquidity risk and currency risk. Credit Risk The Company is exposed to credit risk by holding cash and cash equivalents and receivables. This risk is minimized by holding a significant portion of the funds in Canadian banks. The Company’s exposure with respect to its receivables is primarily related to royalty streams, recovery of exploration evaluation costs, and the sale of AES (Note 9). Interest Rate Risk The Company is exposed to interest rate risk because of fluctuating interest rates. Management believes the interest rate risk is low given interest rates on promissory notes is fixed and the current low global interest rate environment. Fluctuations in market rates is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s operations due to the short term to maturity and no penalty cashable feature of its cash equivalents. Market Risk The Company is exposed to market risk because of the fluctuating values of its publicly traded marketable securities and other company investments. The Company has no control over these fluctuations and does not hedge its investments. Based on the December 31, 2016 portfolio values, a 10% increase or decrease in effective market values would increase or decrease net shareholders’ equity by approximately $48,000.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Expressed in Canadian Dollars) For the Year Ended December 31, 2016 18. RISK AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital to ensure the Company’s expenditures will not exceed available resources. Commodity Risk The Company’s royalty revenues are derived from a royalty interest and are based on the extraction and sale of precious and base minerals and metals. Factors beyond the control of the Company may affect the marketability of metals discovered. Metal prices have historically fluctuated widely. Consequently, the economic viability of the Company’s royalty interests cannot be accurately predicted and may be adversely affected by fluctuations in mineral prices. Currency Risk Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. The Company operates in Canada, Turkey, Sweden, Australia and the U.S.A. The Company funds cash calls to its subsidiary companies outside of Canada in US dollars and a portion of its expenditures are also incurred in local currencies. The exposure of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities to foreign exchange risk as at December 31, 2016 is as follows: The balances noted above reflect the US dollar balances held within the parent company and any wholly owned subsidiaries. Balances denominated in another currency other than the functional currency held in foreign operations are considered immaterial. Based on the above net exposure as at December 31, 2016, and assuming that all other variables remain constant, a 10% depreciation or appreciation of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar would result in an increase/decrease of approximately $725,000 in the Company’s pre-tax profit or loss. 19.

EVENT AFTER THE REPORTING DATE Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company: a) announced it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of up to $7,000,000 through the sale of 5,000,000 units at a price of $1.40 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one common share and one-half of one non-transferable share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one additional Share at a price of $2.00 for a period of two years. b) entered into an exploration and option agreement through its wholly owned subsidiary BCE, with Anglo American Exploration (USA), Inc. (“Anglo”) for the Copper Springs gold-copper property in Arizona. Pursuant to the Agreement, Anglo may acquire a 100% interest in the Property by (a) reimbursing BCE’s 2016 holding and permitting costs and making annual option payments, together totaling US $447,000, and (b) completing US $5,000,000 in exploration expenditures before the fifth anniversary of the Agreement. Upon exercise of the option, Anglo American will pay EMX an additional US $110,000 and EMX will retain a 2% NSR royalty on the Project. The royalty is not capped or purchasable, except over two parcels of Arizona State Land where Anglo American can buy a 0.5% NSR royalty from EMX for US $2,000,000. Certain annual advance minimum royalty payments and certain milestone payments are required after exercise of the option. c) entered into an agreement with Boreal Metals Corp. (“BMC”), a British Columbia corporation, pursuant to which BMC will acquire two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company that control the Gumsberg and Adak exploration assets in Sweden and the Tynset and Burfjord assets in Norway. In exchange for the transfer of its wholly-owned subsidiary Iekelvare AB, which owns or will own that portion of the Properties located in Sweden, and its entire interest in its wholly-owned subsidiary EMX Exploration Scandinavia AB, which owns that portion of the Properties located in Norway, BMC issued to the Company 1,713,390 shares of BMC that represents a 19.9% equity ownership in BMC. BMC will have the continuing obligation to issue additional shares of BMC to Eurasian to maintain its 19.9% interest in BMC, at no additional cost to Eurasian, until BMC has raised $5,000,000; thereafter Eurasian will have the right to participate pro-rata in future financings at its own cost to maintain its 19.9% interest. EMX also received an uncapped 3% NSR royalty on each of the Properties and has the right to nominate one seat on the board of directors of BMC. Within five years of the closing date, BMC has the right to buy down up to 1% of the royalty owed to EMX on any given project by paying US $2,500,000 in cash and shares of BMC. Such buy down is project specific. Additionally, EMX will receive annual advance royalty (“AAR”) payments of US $20,000 for each of the Properties commencing on the second anniversary of the closing, with each AAR payment increasing by US $5,000 per year until reaching US $60,000 per year, except that BMC may forgo AAR payments on two of the four Properties in years two and three. Eurasian will receive a 0.5% NSR royalty on any new mineral exploration projects generated by BMC in Sweden or Norway, excluding projects acquired from a third party containing a mineral resource or reserve or an existing mining operation. These royalties are not capped and not subject to a buy down. Page 44 I, David M. Cole, certify that: SECTION 302 CERTIFICATION 1.
