                     Appointment of Non-Executive Director 
 
Evrima plc, the investment issuer focused on structuring investment 
transactions in the mining and junior exploration and development industries is 
pleased to announce the appointment of highly respected and experienced 
corporate financier, Mr Duncan Gordon. Mr Gordon joins the Board effective 
immediately in the capacity of, Independent Non-Executive Director. 
 
Burns Singh Tennent-Bhohi, Chief Executive Officer commented, 
 
"The Board and I are delighted to welcome Duncan to the Board of Evrima. Over 
the last 20 years Duncan has raised in excess of $500M for private and publicly 
quoted companies and operated one of the most successful investment advisory 
practices in Canada, at one of the most competitive Investment Banks in the 
world. 
 
His decades of experience and global network of capital and access to quality 
investment transactions complement the corporate ethos and objectives we have 
set at Evrima. Duncan is someone who operates with integrity, commitment and 
dedication. 
 
Duncan Gordon 
 
Duncan Gordon is a Canadian businessman and financier. He serves as the 
President of Ivy Capital Corp., a firm dedicated to providing financing 
services and strategic plans for companies seeking guidance through the capital 
raising process. He has a wide range of financial transaction experience in 
originating and structuring deals which range from traditional equity to debt 
and alternative financing options. 
 
Mr. Gordon was formerly a Vice President and Senior Investment Advisor at 
Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management for over seventeen years. His dedication to 
his clients, passion and knowledge resulted in him being honoured with 
membership into the Chairman's Club, placing him as owning one of the top 20 
investment advisory practices in Canada. Mr. Gordon's long-term focus and 
support of the junior mining arena has led to a niche specialization as a 
leading financier who has raised over $500M throughout his career. 
 
Incoming Non-Executive Director, Duncan Gordon commented, 
 
"Over the last two years, Evrima has built a portfolio of investment interests 
that reflect opportunities at differing but equally critical stages of the 
mining value chain and have initially decided to concentrate their geographic 
focus in Botswana. 
 
This has resulted in the Company achieving a presence in the market for 
conducting well-structured investment transactions with consistent themes and 
the most recent success at Premium Nickel Resources Ltd validates the 
rationale. 
 
Moving forward and with the Company now starting to realise material value in 
its existing portfolio in conjunction with a strong pipeline of investment 
transactions I am excited to be joining the Board of Evrima at a time where the 
markets for opportunities in our sector are offering cost of entries that 
underpin the importance of the junior exploration and development sector."
