For the convenience of the reader, amounts in Renminbi, the Chinese currency ("CNY"), have been translated into United States dollars ("US$") at the applicable rate of US$1.00 = CNY6.7794 as quoted by UKForex as of June 30, 2017, except as disclosed otherwise. No representation is made that the CNY amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at that rate, or at all.

The condensed consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 (unaudited) and the condensed consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30, 2017 (unaudited) are derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, as furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2017 under cover of Form 6-K. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.

Mr. Edward Wong, the Company's Chairman and CEO, commented on the 2017 interim results: "In March 2017, we sold our non-ferrous mining operation to an unrelated third party after concluding that then prevailing market prices for non-ferrous metals coupled with the corresponding costs of extraction did not warrant continued production. In November 2017, we acquired a mining company which holds an exploration permit to a mine located in Bayannaoer City, Inner Mongolia which is believed to contain minable amounts of lead and silver resources, with the prospect that further surveying and exploration may indicate the presence of other minable ore such as copper. We will continue to explore new business opportunities to contribute to revenues and enhance shareholder values."

About China Natural Resources, Inc.:

China Natural Resources, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation, through its operating subsidiaries in the People's Republic of China and Bolivia, is currently engaged in (i) the acquisition and exploitation of mining rights in Inner Mongolia, including exploring for lead, silver and other nonferrous metals, and  (ii) trial production at our copper smelting plant in Bolivia in preparation for commercial production of copper cathodes.
