Bushveld Minerals Limited announced the appointment of David Noko as an independent non-executive director to the Board of Directors (the "Board"), concurrent with this appointment, the Company also announces the retirement of Anthony Viljoen from the Board. Anthony was a founding member of Bushveld Minerals and played an instrumental role in Bushveld Minerals' growth and transition from explorer to producer. Following this transformation in the business, Anthony focused on developing the Company's tin assets, which led to them being spun out of Bushveld with the listing of AfriTin Mining Limited ("AfriTin") on AIM in 2017.

Anthony is the CEO of AfriTin and his retirement from the Bushveld Minerals Board comes at a time when AfriTin is rapidly developing its large-scale resources at the Uis Mine in Namibia. David is highly regarded in the South African and global business circles and has years of experience both as an executive and more recently as board member on several prominent companies, including, Royal Bafokeng Platinum Limited, Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited, AstraPak Pty Ltd. and Platistone Holdings (Pty) Ltd. He is currently a Non-Executive Director at inter alia African Rainbow Minerals and Tongaat Hulett, as well as being a Lead Advisor at his consultancy company, ESG Advisory Ltd. He is also the Chairman of the Council of the University of the Free State. David's appointment follows the appointments, announced on 17 March 2022, of three other non-executive directors, made to ensure that the Board's composition meets the high standards of corporate governance expected of London listed companies and reflect Bushveld Minerals' status as a significant primary producer of vanadium in South Africa.
