Aminex Chairman Brian Hall commented:
"Jay Bhattacherjee and Philip Thompson have been working with the Company as consultants for several months and we are pleased to cement the relationship through their appointments to the Board.
They have each acquired substantial holdings in the Company through vending their own Company into Aminex for shares and following this up with material cash contributions in the recent successful placing. Max Williams has been with Aminex for many years and his services are highly valued, never more so than during the last 12 month period. All three will be proposed for election at the forthcoming AGM.
Mike Rego has been a long-serving Exploration Director. We wish him well in his future ventures and warmly thank him for his support in the past.
The new and existing Board members will now jointly own approximately one eighth of the enlarged
Company's issued share capital."
