Looks like a Canon FD 'breechlock' mount.

This adapter should work for you although don't expect fantastic quality. You can also get adapters without a correction lens but you'll lose the ability to focus at infinity.

I made an assumption that you wanted to put it on a Canon body (no idea why I made that assumption :shrug: ) but if it's to go on another marque then ignore my suggestion.

yup u r right, it's going into an EOS :)

so it's definitely an FD mount?
 
To be honest, FD glass on an EOS is only good for macro work. I wouldn't bother with the lens unless you get a Sony NEX or m4/3 to mount it on. And the quality might not be what you expect if you do.

Edit: and yes it's definitely an FD breechlock as said earlier.

I'm 99% sure it's not K-Mount, and it looks like the breechlock for definite.
