Director Appointment

Lionsgold (LSE: LION), the gold company focused on the exploration, production and retail application of physical gold, including the development of physical gold as a currency, is pleased to announce the appointment of Michael Paul Joseph as Non-Executive Director with immediate effect.

Mr Joseph, aged 47, is a highly successful entrepreneur and Managing Director of Right Choice Insurance Brokers Limited ("RCIB") - a company he founded that commenced trading in 2008 and has grown year on year, now employing more than 300 people, and in its last full financial year ending 31 December 2017, had turnover of over £26m generating in excess of £9m in earnings before tax for the 12-month period. The inherent value of RCIB is underpinned by it's own purpose-built data technology system and the competitive advantage it delivers to the business, which has grown to over 250,000 customers currently. In June 2018, Lloyds Bank private equity division ("LDC") invested £28m at a valuation over £100m.

RCIB is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA" reference number 475620) and Mr Joseph is an FCA approved person (FCA reference number 01051) for relevant control functions.

Cameron Parry, Lionsgold Chief Executive Officer, commented: "It is my pleasure to announce the addition of Michael Joseph to the board of Lionsgold. He is a highly successful and esteemed entrepreneur with the proven knowledge and ability to rapidly grow a customer facing business in the financial services sector with a proprietary core technology.

"Michael is a key addition to the Liongold board as the Company enters the commercialisation phase of giving people the choice to use a 100% reserve banking platform and hard currency. Furthermore, this new director appointment ties in to the Company's stated objective of applying for admission to trading on AIM in Q1 2019."
