Centurion Minerals Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:CTN) ("Centurion", "the Company") is
pleased to announce significant gold assay results from rock channel samples
from the Zulham prospect within the Banda Raya property in Aceh province,
Northern Sumatra, Indonesia. The assay results are indicative of potentially
large epithermal and/or shallow intrusion-related gold mineralization within the
area. 


Highlights from assay results received to date from a total of 105 rock samples
taken from the Zulham prospect are as follows:




--  8 samples @ 6 - 14.5 grams/tonne (g/t) Au 
    --  Including 4 samples @ 10 - 14.5 g/t Au 
--  18 samples @ 1 - 3.9 g/t Au 
--  17 samples @ 0.1 - 0.9 g/t Au 
--  The balance are less than 0.1 g/t Au 



All assays came from 1 metre (m) sawn rock channel samples with the exception of
four analyses within the 1 - 3.9 g/t Au group that were rock chip samples. The
Company is currently preparing a first-phase drilling program in the area to
commence as quickly as possible. 


The Zulham prospect is situated within the east-west trending Miwah-Menawan
lineament and approximately 1875 m above sea level. Thus far, the mineralization
has been defined over an area of 300 m in length and 2-7 m in width, and remains
open in all directions. Gold is believed to occur in galena-sphalerite-dominated
sulfide veins and stockworks, sheeted veins with comb texture, vuggy breccias
with sulfide dissemination, and hydrothermal breccias with sulfide cements. 


Furthermore, the Zulham prospect is approximately 750 m northeast of the
previously identified Keladi prospect, from which past explorer Highlands
Pacific Ltd. reported nine rock chip samples that returned between 2 and 27 g/t
Au over a 500 m long vein system. Both Zulham and Keladi lie within a 1.5-km
diameter multiple-ring circular structure. 


"These results validate our geological teams' efforts to 'cover the last mile'
in challenging terrain and we are eager to advance the exploration program in
order to determine the size of this gold prospect," stated Alfred Lenarciak,
Centurion Chairman.


Qualified Person, Quality Assurance and Quality Control 

Thomas Mulja, Ph.D., P.Geo and Chief Operating Officer of the Company is the
Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101 who has supervised the

The sampling protocol is managed by Centurion Minerals under the supervision of
Thomas Mulja and/or exploration manager Thomas Dott. Rock chips and sawn channel
samples are sealed in poly zip lock or "Hubco" sample bags and delivered to
Intertek Testing and Inspection Services preparation laboratory in the city of
Medan, North Sumatra. The resulting pulps are sent directly by the laboratory
staff to its headquarters analytical laboratory in Jakarta. The Jakarta
Laboratory is ISO 90001 and 17025 accredited and employs a Laboratory
Information Management System for sample tracking, quality control and
reporting. In addition to Intertek internal standard materials and blank
samples, Centurion regularly inserts into every sample batch its own certified
rock standards from OREAS and GEOSTATS, Australia, and field duplicate samples.
Gold is determined with fire assay methods (FA 50), and other elements with
Induced Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES; Intertek Codes:
IC01 and IC50). Intertek systematically re-assays selected low, high, and
over-limit results.
