West Wits Mining Limited provided the following update on its management and board. Jac van Heerden will transition from Managing Director of WWI to non-executive director, effective 31 July 2023. Jac is relinquishing his executive role at WWI to take up a position as General Manager of a new and substantial Copper, Zinc and Gold project in East Africa.

The appointment represents a significant career opportunity for Jac and validates the high regard in which he is held by the industry. WWI has been fortunate to have a professional of Jac's skill and reputation to plan the development of its Witwatersrand Basin Project. The company is delighted that he will remain engaged in Company as a non-executive director as the company advance South African Gold projects.

Following Jac's move, Rudi Deysel will assume the role of Chief Operating Officer and Country Manager (RSA). Rudi has worked closely with Jac over the last two and a half years to deliver the project to execution status. He has been responsible for establishing all required site infrastructure in preparation for mining as well as all execution permits, operations contracts and Mine Health and Safety Procedures.

In addition to a formal degree in mining engineering Rudi also holds a B.Sc. (Geophysics) as well as an MBA. Rudi has over 20 years' operational mining experience including senior positions at Anglo American, ERG, Asanko Gold and other major miners.

The Board, including Mr. van Heerden, fully endorse Rudi's credentials to complete delivery of the Qala Shallows stage 1 of WBP on finalisation of funding. As a non-executive director Jac will continue to be available to support Rudi and the team in that capacity. In addition to the above changes, WWI has appointed Mr. Keith Middleton as Executive Manager Commercial.

Keith is an experienced executive of ASX listed companies specialising in the Australian and International resources sector. He is highly skilled in financial analysis, risk management, major capital works expenditure, corporate governance and ESG regulations. He is the former Managing Director of American Rare Earths where he had direct accountability for mining operations and exploration activities coupled with strategy formulation, project evaluation and investor relations.

Keith's role has a broad scope including investor relations, strategy, corporate operations, and management. He will be a key member of the WWI executive team going forward. As part of these changes, Michael Quinert as Chairman will also take a more active role in day-to-day operations.

The updated management structure will be reviewed upon the commencement of mining at Qala Shallows.
