The Company welcomes Mr. Goodlace's appointment and the  expertise in mining that he brings.

 

Mr Goodlace's mining career commenced in 1977, and has spanned more than 40 years.

Anthony Viljoen said "I would like to join with my board of directors in welcoming Terence to the board of directors of Afritin. Terence brings a wealth of experience to an already strong board, with a particular emphasis on mine development and management. As the Company continues its rapid transition from an exploration and development company into a full scale tin miner, Terence's experience will be valuable in assisting the technical team in driving the Company's objectives forward".

Notes to editors

AfriTin Mining is the first pure tin company listed in London and its vision is to create a portfolio of world-class, conflict-free, tin producing assets. The company's flagship asset is the Uis brownfield tin mine in Namibia, formerly the world's largest hard-rock tin mine.

AfriTin is managed by a highly experienced board of directors and management team with a current two-fold strategy: fast track Uis brownfield tin mine in Namibia to commercial production in 2018 ramping up to 5,000 tonnes of concentrate, and consolidation of other quality African tin assets. The Company strives to capitalise on the solid supply/demand fundamentals of tin by developing a critical mass of tin resource inventory, achieving production in the near term and further scaling production by consolidating tin assets in Africa.
