Management and Board Changes

Precious and base metals explorer and developer Adriatic Metals Plc (ASX:ADT, LON:ADT1) is pleased to announce some management and board changes that will help position the Company as it moves from single asset explorer to multi-asset explorer and developer in the coming years.

Mr Dominic Roberts will join the Company as Head of Corporate Affairs, commencing 1 July 2020 and Mr Bosnjakovic will be ceasing his involvement with the Company and its subsidiary.

Mr Roberts is a British National who has more than 25 years' experience operating in the Balkans, primarily focused on the mining and property industries.

Mr Roberts was previously Group Operations Director at Mineco, one of the largest base metal miners in the Balkans, with 5 operating mines, 2 lead smelters, 3 exploration projects and 2,500 people employed across the group. In his role at Mineco he most recently oversaw the permitting and development of the Olovo mine, in the same Canton as Adriatic's Vares Project, and has strong relationships within the local community and government.

Prior to Mineco, Mr Roberts' professional experience in the Balkans included the successful permitting and delivery of a commercial waste re-treatment plant.

Mr Roberts will work alongside Adriatic's General Manager - Bosnia, Dr Adnan Teletovic who will also become an Executive Director of Eastern Mining d.o.o., Adriatic's wholly owned subsidiary in Bosnia. Dr Teletovic has been integral in the Company's operating success since his appointment in May 2018. Dr Teletovic is a Bosnian national, educated in Bosnia and Australia, with extensive project management experience, in the Balkan region, and elsewhere in the world, for major companies including BHP Billiton and Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines.

Mr Bosnjakovic has for some time been considering his involvement with the Company and, as part of these management changes, all executive employment and consultancy agreements with Mr Bosnjakovic have been terminated and he has ceased to be a director of Adriatic Metals Plc.

Paul Cronin, CEO & Managing Director of Adriatic Metals, commented:

"Milos Bosnjakovic has been involved with Adriatic since its acquisition of the Vares Project in 2017 and has been instrumental in establishing the strong relationships we enjoy with government and the local community. On behalf of all of the Board, I would like to thank Milos for his contribution during his time with the Company and wish him well in his future endeavours."

"We are delighted to appoint Dominic to this senior role at Adriatic. Dominic brings significant experience of both the Balkans in general and of developing and operating mining and industrial assets in the region. He has successfully overseen the permitting and development of the first base metals mine in the Federation to be developed in the last 25 years. His experience of operating in Bosnia and the region will be invaluable to Adriatic as we implement our strategy of developing historical high grade, low cost assets in the Balkans."
