Zoloto Resources Ltd.
Management's Discussion & Analysis
For the six months ended June 30, 2007

The following discussion and analysis of the operations, results, and financial position of Zoloto Resources Ltd. (“Zoloto” or “the Company”) for the six months ended June 30, 2007, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited Interim Financial Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and the Company’s audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006.

This MD&A covers the six months ended June 30, 2007 and was prepared August 29, 2007.

While gold exploration remains the core business of the Company with a primary focus to become a mid-tier gold producer, 2006 was a year of transition for Zoloto Resources. Following a strategic review in May 2006, the Company decided to refocus its exploration activities from British Columbia, Canada to the Russian Federation. Consequently, during the second half of 2006, Zoloto assembled four gold exploration projects in the Russian Far East and initiated a major equity financing which was completed during the first quarter of 2007.

As of June 30, 2007, Zoloto had $895,116 in cash and cash equivalents (2006: $3,379,955) and working capital of $1,178,628 (2006: $3,483,070).

The Company has no long-term debt and its credit and interest rate risks are limited to interest-bearing assets of cash and cash equivalents. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are short-term and non-interest bearing.

There are a number of full and part-time management and administrative employees/consultants based in Vancouver and Russia.

Zoloto Resources’ focus is to become a mid-tier gold producer through the advancement of its gold exploration properties in the Russian Federation. In addition, management will continue to evaluate further acquisition opportunities in Russia. For 2007, the Company intends to proceed as follows:

Zoloto has, assembled nine gold exploration properties – specifically, Ozherelie, Ykanskoye, Tumannoye, Elvenei, Kankaran, Koralveem River, Eqilknyveem River, Left Koralveem River and Maingy-Pauktuvaam River.

All of the technical work performed previously at these exploration properties has been carried out by Russian personnel on behalf of Russian exploration companies. In some cases, resource estimates have been calculated by the Russian investigators using Russian methodologies and Russian classification nomenclature. Russian resource estimates for the Tumannoye and Elvenei properties were prepared prior to February 1, 2001 and represent historical estimates. For these estimates, insufficient work has been done by a Qualified Person to classify the historical estimates as current mineral resources. Zoloto is not treating the historical estimates as current mineral resources and the historical estimates should not be relied upon.

The Russian resource estimates for the Ozherelie and Ykanskoye properties were prepared after February 1, 2001. At the time of the ML Ltd. acquisition, these estimates were not Canadian National Instrument 43-101 compliant. During the 2007 first quarter, Zoloto completed a NI 43-101 report that confirmed previous Russian C1 and C2 resources as equivalent to CIM inferred resources. Relative to the significant scope of both projects, previous exploration has been relatively limited. Consequently Zoloto is carrying out exploration programs on these projects which started in the second quarter of 2007.

Baykal Gold (“Baykal”) is a company incorporated under the laws of the Russian Federation and is owned by Zoloto to acquire tendered or licensed properties in the region of Irkutsk. It holds the 51% interest of Zoloto in ML Ltd. and has the right to purchase the remaining 49% upon fulfilling certain conditions.

ML is the owner of the Ozherelie and Ykanskoye gold projects located in the Irkutsk Oblast region of East Siberia, approximately 1,100 km north of the City of Irkutsk and 35 km from the Sukhoi Log gold deposit.

Chukot Gold (Chukot) is a Company incorporated under the laws of the Russian Federation and is owned by Zoloto to acquire tendered or licensed properties in the region of Chukutka. It holds the interests in the Tumannoye, Ykanskoye and Kankaran properties.

KM Gold is a Company incorporated under the laws of the Russian Federation and is owned by Zoloto. It holds the rights to the balance of the properties, namely Koralveem River, Eqilknyveem River, Left Koralveem River and Maingy-Pauktuvaam River.

The Ozherelie and Ykanskoye gold deposits are located within a highly mineralized belt which includes the world class Sukhoi Log gold deposit as well as a number of other hard rock and alluvial gold mines. The region has historically produced a reported 48 million ounces, making it one of the most prolific gold producing regions in the world. Approximately 10km apart, Ozherelie and Ykanskoye are located in two separate areas both with mining licenses having terms of 20 years from August 2, 2006.

Zoloto has initially budgeted US$12.0m for exploration at its Irkutsk properties, which will include over 15,000m of core drilling, 40,000m of RC/conventional air rotary (BTS) drilling and 30,000m³ of trenching. Two large diameter core rigs have been mobilized with drilling on both gold properties initially scheduled to start in August of 2007 but now slated to start in September of 2007.

Approximately two-thirds of the above budget will be spent at Ozherelie, with the remainder spent at Ykanskoye. At both properties, two phases of exploration are planned with the following objectives:

At Ozherelie, five mineralized zones have been identified by ML Ltd. The approximate strike length comprised in the resource blocks of Zones 1 and 4 is only 0.5km, leaving more than 6.5km of potential strike remaining to be tested. In the first phase of exploration, a 480m x 160m drilling grid is planned along strike and down dip of the current resource in Zone 1. In addition, three widely spaced drill fences will test the continuity of the mineralized horizon between Zone 3 and Zone 4. Due to the coarse free gold nature of the mineralization, core drilling will also be supplemented by a significant amount of trenching, and BTS drilling primarily in Zone 3. For Phase 2, exploration will be augmented with a large diameter RC drill rig. Drilling will concentrate on expanding known resources around Zone 1 through infill drilling on a 120m x 80m grid. To date significant site preparation work has taken place prior to drilling starting in mid-September.

Currently at Ykanskoye, trenching has only been along approximately 1.4km of the potential 6km strike length. In Phase 1 of exploration, additional trenching will be completed along the remaining 4.6km of strike length. Furthermore, seven widely spaced fences of core holes (approx 1km apart) are planned to test down dip continuity. Phase 2 exploration will concentrate on expanding the current resource in the central-north area of the property through step out and infill core drilling on a 120m x 80m grid pattern (for plan details see attachments to SR Press Release #03-07 filed on Sedar).

In addition to the above exploration programs, Zoloto, through ML Ltd, is completing a centralized database and data verification program from ML’s regional exploration office in Bodaibo, Irkutsk, and their corporate office in Konakovo. ML retains a staff complement of 20 qualified employees who are currently assigned to prepare the infrastructure around the projects in order to commence the drill and trenching programs.

On April 5, 2007 the Company filed with the TSX Venture Exchange its National Instrument 43-101 independent technical report prepared by Gustavson Associates, LLC on the Company’s Irkutsk projects in the Russian Federation. The report dated March 20, 2007 and entitled “Technical Report on the Ozherelie and Ykanskoye Gold Projects, Irkutsk Oblast, Russia” is filed on www.sedar.com.

The report was prepared under the supervision of Mr. William J. Crowl, R.G. who is an independent qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. Key findings of the report, which reviews the historic exploration work undertaken at the two properties, are:

Gustavson considers that the previously reported Russian C1 and C2 mineral resources can be classified and reported as CIM Inferred Mineral Resources and as such are therefore NI 43-101 compliant. The Inferred Mineral Resources (using a 1.0g/t cutoff grade, a 3m composite thickness and a 2.7 S.G.) are as follows:

Property	Tonnes (*millions*)	Grade *(g Au/t)*	Contained *Au (oz)*	Contained *Au (t)*
Ozherelie	1.05	3.68	124,000	3.86
Ykanskoye	1.40	3.43	154,000	4.78
Total	2.45	3.53	278,000	8.65

Resource estimates at Ozherelie relied on the data from 20 core holes (1,317m) with an average spacing of 100m to 125m and 11 trenches on the mineralized zone spaced from 40m to 125m apart. At Ykanskoye, data from 6 core holes (476m), spaced from 75m to 125m apart, combined with 17 trenches with an average spacing of some 50m were used in the resource estimate. Simple polygonal estimation methodology was employed to estimate the mineral resources.

Relative to the potential extent of the deposits, Gustavson considers that only a small portion of the prospective ground has been explored. Consequently, there is “significant potential for the discovery of substantial additional gold mineralization both along strike and down dip” at both properties.

In the Chukotka Autonomous Oblast, Chukot Gold acquired 20 year mineral licenses for 2 highly prospective gold projects explored from the 1950’s through the 1990’s. Each has a long history of exploration by Russian entities. No material exploration activity has taken place on any of the properties since at least 1994.

The Tumannoye project is located in the northern part of the Chukotski Peninsula, in the Ilutin administrative area of Chukotka. The project is located on a Class II Egvekinot-Ilutin motorway, 199km to the east of the seaport of Egvekinot. The nearest settlement, Geologichesky, is located 40km to the west. There is a 29.3MW thermal power station in Ekveginot and an 110kW power line following the Egvekinot-Ilutin motorway.

The Tumannoye gold project, comprising approximately 19km2 has seen 128,000m3 of trenching and 15,771m of core drilling. The host rocks are Triassic sediments and Cretaceous granodiorites, dikes of earlier-cretaceous lamprophyres, granite-porphyries, late-cretaceous granite-porphyries, diorite-porphyrite, andesites, basalts and trachydolerites. The structures containing the gold-sulfidic mineralization are related to brecciation, collapse features and metasomatic alteration zones. The gold mineralization occurs in two forms – tabular deposits of interspersed pyrite-arsenopyrite in metasomatically altered terrigenous-carbonaceous bodies and, to a lesser extent, as arsenopyrite-quartz stringers in mineralized dikes of granite porphyry.

Gold mineralization is reported to be associated with arsenopyrite and carbonaceous material. Also associated with the mineralization are varying amounts of antimonite, sphalerite, galena and chalcopyrite. Gold content ranges from 0.5g/t up to 111g/t, reportedly averaging 5 to 12g/t. Silver is reported at relatively low concentrations in samples. A zone of partial oxidation exists near the present ground surface.

Drilling has intersected mineralized zones up to 350m in vertical depth, with projections exceeding 400m. Some 15 separate zones (targets) have been identified in the prospect.

Mineralized bodies reportedly range from 0.4m to 7.5m in thickness and from 50m to 400m along strike.

A historical resource estimate for the Tumannoye deposit by Russian investigators as at July 9, 1995 was 3.6 million tonnes at a gold grade of 7.1g/t. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource. Zoloto is not treating the historical estimate as a current mineral resource and the historical estimate should not be relied on.

Zoloto has commissioned Gustavson Associates, LLC to complete a National Instrument 43-101 independent report on the Tumannoye property which is expected to be completed late September early October 2007. To date equipment has been purchased, camp construction is almost completed, personnel have been put in place and engineering and geological work has commenced. Zoloto has commenced on the Tumannoye, the compilation and evaluation of all historical exploration work, including metallurgical recovery test-work. Confirmatory drilling, sampling and test-work will be planned to confirm the resource defined to date and to bring the samples databases up to the required reporting standards. Ongoing work will consist of the drill testing of the extensions of the gold mineralization discovered to date and based on the ongoing evaluation work on drill testing and sampling of additional targets to the vein system discovered to date. Priority will be given to evaluating exploration methods suitable at defining additional drill targets.

The Elvenei project is located in the Chaunsky area of the Chukotka Autonomous Oblast, 540km southwest of the town of Pevek, the largest Arctic seaport in the area. It is 15km off the Pevek-Bilibino automobile road, 110km west of Bilibino, the site of a nuclear power station (43MW).

Russian exploration to date (1968 to 1992) has defined a gold-mineralized system of quartz veins and linear silicified breccias in Triassic sandstones, shales and siltstones intruded by a granitoid dome and a late Cretaceous complex of independent small intrusions forming a ring dike structure. Early work in the area concentrated on tungsten mineralization in the contact metamorphosed sediments adjacent to the intrusives. Subsequent work focused on the gold mineralization, with a number of trenches and core holes being completed. Mineralogy of the mineralized bodies is simple. The main ore minerals are pyrite and arsenopyrite. Other sulfides present include antimonite.

Six potential mineralized bodies have been outlined at Elvenei, not all of which have seen systematic trenching and drilling. Initial exploration at Elvenei in the Chukotka region will involve the compilation and review of all historical exploration results. A drilling and sampling program based on this will be designed to test the vein hosted gold mineralization at Elvenei to bring the exploration up to NI43-101 reporting standards and to enable the testing of the current 6 known vein systems both along strike and at depth to define the overall potential of the mineralized system. Exploration will also be focused on discovering additional zones beyond those discovered to date. To date equipment has been purchased, camp construction is in progress, engineering and geological personnel are in place and preliminary work has begun. Diamond drilling will commence in 2007. Zoloto has commissioned Gustavson Associates, LLC to complete a National Instrument 43-101 independent report on the Elvenei project which is expected to be completed late September early October 2007.

To expedite and enhance the future exploration programs, Zoloto has mobilized a skid-mounted Longyear 38 Diamond drill with new Deutz Turbo Diesel Engine to Tumannoye. In addition, Zoloto has purchased two D9 dozers, one for Tumannoye and one for Elvenei. A 20 man camp, generators and supplies for Tumannoye has been purchased and delivered.

Currently Zoloto has commissioned Gustavson Associates, LLC to complete a National Instrument 43-101 independent report on the Kenkeren property which is expected to be completed late September early October 2007.

Koralveem, Eqilknyveem, Left Koralveem and Maingy-Pauktuvaam River projects are now going through the initial permitting stages.

The Harrison Lake Project is a belt of ultramafic and metavolcanics and metasediments which extend from the site of the former B.C. Nickel Mine, 7 kilometers north of Hope, B.C., over 60 kilometers along the east side of Harrison Lake. The Company had previously identified 15 high priority sulphide related Airborne ElectroMagnetic (AEM) targets and combined with the data from detailed ground geophysical surveying had selected drill hole locations.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2007, the General and Administrative expenses were $2,647,521(2006 - $691,578). The increase of $1,955,943 was a result of the accelerated developments in the acquisition of mineral properties in Russia and the initiation of a major financing which was completed in 2007. During this three month period, consulting fees were $1,008,528 (2006 - $84,028); salaries and contract services were $330,537 (2006 - $nil); investor relations were $92,024 (2006 - $18,663). Professional fees were $527,279 (2006 - $44,779). All these increases were a result of the mineral property acquisitions in Russia and the equity financing which was initiated during the last quarter of 2006 and was completed in the first quarter of 2007.

The Company follows the fair value method of accounting for its stock-based compensation plans. The fair value of the stock options awarded is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Consequently included in general and administrative expenses of $2,647,521 is $1,141,393 of non-cash flow expenses of which $921,842 was added to consulting fees and $219,551 was added to management fees. Amortization of $160,432, an additional non-cash flow item also forms part of the total $2,647,521 in expenses.

Resource property expenditures for the six months ended June 30, were as follows:

For the three month period ended June 30, 2007, related party transactions were management fees charged by director totaling $49,500.

Unless otherwise noted, the above noted transactions were measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.

Exploration and mining companies face many and varied kinds of risks. While risk management cannot eliminate the impact of all potential risks, the Company strives to manage such risks to the extent possible and practical.

The principal activity of the Company is mineral exploration, which is inherently risky. Exploration is also capital intensive, and the Company currently has no source of income and must depend on equity financings as its main source of capital. Only the skills of its management and staff in mineral exploration and exploration financing serve to mitigate these risks and therefore are one of the main assets of the Company.

Following are the risk factors, which the Company’s management believes are most important in the context of the Company’s business. It should be noted that this list is not exhaustive and that other risk factors may apply. An investment in the Company may not be suitable for all investors.

The Company has shifted the focus of its exploration activities from British Columbia, Canada to the Russian Federation. The Company has been successful in 2006 in assembling four major gold exploration projects in the Russian Far East with additional acquisitions to come on stream in 2007. Operations in the Russian Federation, however, do come with an inherent risk that is not generally prevalent in most Western countries. The major uncertainties include economic risk factors and the predictability of both government policy and Russian law. Since 1999 the Russian economy has stabilized, and along with stability in government policies and the alignment of Russian law with World Trade Organization regulations, these measures have significantly reduced the business risks of operating in the Russian Federation.

The Company competes with many companies that have substantially greater financial and technical resources than the Company for the acquisition of mineral properties as well as for the recruitment and retention of qualified employees.

Title to and the area of mining concessions may be disputed. Although the Company has taken steps to verify the title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current state of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company’s title. Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects.

The success of the Corporation’s business will depend upon the Corporation’s ability to develop its cash flow from operations to a point where it becomes profitable. Since it is experiencing negative cash flow its cash reserves are being depleted. Accordingly, the Corporation will require additional funds through the sale of equity and/or debt capital in the future. The only alternatives for the financing of the Corporation’s business would be the offering by the Corporation of an interest in its mining properties to be earned by another party or to obtain project or operating financing from financial institutions, neither of which is presently intended.

If the Corporation cannot increase its cash flow and become profitable it will have to raise additional funds. However, such funds might not be available on acceptable terms as a result of which there will be a material adverse effect on the Corporation, its business and results of operations and it may not achieve its business objectives.

The Corporation has no history of, and is in the early stages of development on its mining property. The Corporation may experience higher costs than budgeted and delays which were not expected. The Corporation must also locate and retain qualified personnel to conduct exploration work. Further adverse changes in any one of such factors or the failure to locate and retain such personnel will have an additional adverse effect on the Corporation, its business and results of operations.

Mining activities are speculative by their nature and involve a high degree of risk, which even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome.

The Corporation’s drilling activities are in the development stage and such development is subject to the risk that previously reported inferred mineralization is not economic. If this occurs, the Corporation’s existing resources may not be sufficient to support a profitable mining operation.

The Corporation’s activities are subject to a number of factors beyond its control including intense industry competition and changes in economic conditions, including some operating costs (such as electrical power). Its operations are subject to all the hazards normally incidental to exploration, development and production of precious metals, any of which could result in work stoppages, damage to or loss of property and equipment and possible environmental damage.

An adverse change in any one of such factors, hazards and risks would have a material adverse effect on the Corporation, its business and results of operations. This might result in the Corporation not meeting its business objectives.

The Corporation’s success is dependent upon the performance of key personnel. The Corporation does not maintain life insurance for key personnel and the loss of the services of

senior management or key personnel could have a material and adverse effect on the Corporation, its business and results of operations.

The Corporation’s Activities might suffer Losses from or Liabilities for Risks which are not Insurable

Hazards such as unusual or unexpected geological formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and development. The Corporation may become subject to liability for pollution, cave-ins or hazards against which it cannot insure or against which it may elect not to insure. The payment of such liabilities would have a material, adverse effect on the Corporation’s financial position and results of operation.

The Corporation currently carries general commercial liability, tenant’s legal liability, building, contents and contractors equipment insurance. Additionally, all contractors carry their own general and equipment liability insurance.

Although the Corporation intends to maintain liability insurance in an amount which it considers adequate, the nature of these risks is such that liabilities might exceed policy limits, the liabilities and hazards might not be insurable against, or the Corporation might not elect to insure itself against such liabilities due to high premium costs or other reasons, in which event the Corporation could incur significant costs that could have a materially adverse effect upon its financial condition and results of operation.

While the Corporation has carried out, and will carry out on an annual basis, estimates of its mineral resources, this should not be construed as a guarantee that such estimates are accurate. If such estimates prove to be materially inaccurate, that would have a material and adverse effect on the Corporation’s business and results of operations.

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its variable interest entities. The Company consolidates a variable interest entity when the Company has a variable interest that absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of the entities expected residual returns, or both, in compliance with the Accounting Standards Board’s (“AcSB”) Accounting Guideline 15 (“AcG15”) “Consolidation of Variable interest Entities”. An entity is a variable interest entity and accordingly, is subject to consolidation according to AcG15 when, by design, the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or the holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lack any characteristics of a controlling financial interest. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

In September, 2006, the Emerging Issues Committee issued Abstract No. 163, “Determining The Variability To Be Considered in Applying AcG-15” (“EIC-163”). EIC 163 concludes that the “by-design” approach should be the method used to assess variability of an interest when applying AcG-15. The by-design analysis focuses on the role of a contract or arrangement in the design of the entity, rather than its legal form or accounting classification. EIC-163 requires an analysis of the design of the entity in determining the variability of interests to be considered in applying AcG-15 using a two-step approach. The first step is to analyze the nature of the risks in the entity. The second step is to determine the purpose(s) for which the entity was created and determine the variability (created by the risk identified in Step 1) the entity is designed to create and pass along to its interest holders. The guidance may be applied to all entities (including newly created entities) with which an enterprise first becomes involved, and to all entities previously required to be analyzed under AcG-15 when a reconsideration event has occurred, effective January 1, 2007, with early adoption encouraged.

ZAO Chukot Gold (“Chukot”) was incorporated on December 26, 2005. On July 16, 2006 the Company signed an agreement guaranteeing funding for the future expenditures of Chukot.

The Company had supplied Chukot with non interest-bearing, no repayment term loans in the sum of $4,791,462 to be used for resource property acquisition and exploration costs. Chukot would not be able to operate without this subordinated support and this capital was at risk. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary because it absorbs the expected risk and residual gain of Chukot. As a result, the operations of Chukot were consolidated with the Company as of the date of the agreement guaranteeing funding on July 16, 2006 (“the Involvement date”).

Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as at June 30, 2007, to provide reasonable assurance that all material financial information relating to the Company was made known to the CEO and CFO by others within the Company in order for them to complete their analysis and review of the financial position and results of the Company for the three month period ended June 30, 2007.

The Company evaluated the design of it is internal controls over financial reporting as defined in Multilateral Instrument 52-109 for the period ended June 30, 2007 and based on this evaluation have determine these controls to be effective except as noted in the following paragraph.

This evaluation of the design of internal controls over financial reporting for the Company resulted in the identification of internal control deficiencies which are not atypical for a company of this size including lack of segregation of duties due to a limited number of employees dealing with accounting and financial matters and insufficient in-house expertise to deal with complex accounting, reporting and taxation issues. The deficiencies relate primarily to the Company’s venture into the Russian Federation. Competent personnel are actively being sought to improve internal controls.

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting in the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

This MD&A was reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee and Board of Directors and is effective as of August 29, 2007.
