("Evrima" or the "Company")
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."

On appointment, Mr Gordon will be awarded 1,500,000 options to subscribe for
new ordinary shares of £0.001 with a strike price of £0.065 and a life to
