PELANGIO EXPLORATION ANNOUNCES THE ADDITION OF JOHN CLARKE TO ITS BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Pelangio Exploration Inc. has added John Clarke to its board of directors.

Mr. Clarke is an experienced mining executive with senior technical, operating, corporate development and public company leadership experience in Africa and internationally, including metallurgy, mine operations, exploration, development and executive roles with companies listed on the London, New York and Toronto stock exchanges.

Mr. Clarke began his career in metallurgy and smelting operations before joining Ashanti Goldfields Company Ltd. in 1982. At Ashanti, he held progressively senior roles in plant operations, mine management, strategic planning, corporate services and project development, including service as relief general mines manager for the Obuasi mine and later as executive director responsible for strategic planning and business development. He helped establish Ashanti's Africa-wide gold exploration program and contributed to acquisitions that included the Geita deposit in Tanzania, the Siguiri deposit in Guinea and the Bibiani deposit in Ghana.

From 1997 to 2009, Mr. Clarke served as president and chief executive officer of Nevsun Resources Ltd. and subsequently as vice-chairman and non-executive director. During his tenure, Nevsun discovered and advanced the Tabakoto gold mine in Mali, the Bisha gold-copper-zinc discovery in Eritrea and the Kubi mine in Ghana. He later served as president and chief executive officer of Banro Corp. from 2013 to 2018, where he focused on Banro's gold mining operations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the continued development of the Twangiza-Namoya gold belt.

Mr. Clarke holds a BSc in metallurgy from the University of Wales, University College Cardiff, a PhD in metallurgy from Cambridge University, a postgraduate diploma in management studies and an MBA.

Pelangio's president and chief executive officer, Ingrid Hibbard, commented: "John Clarke brings substantial Ghana operating and corporate development experience, including mine-level responsibilities at Obuasi, strategic planning and business development leadership at Ashanti Goldfields, and direct involvement in building one of the broader African gold exploration portfolios of its time. His background in metallurgy, mine operations, project development and public company leadership is directly relevant to Pelangio's Ghana strategy, including our Obuasi-area exploration plans and ongoing work at Manfo."

Mr. Clarke will succeed David Mosher on the board. Pelangio thanks Mr. Mosher for more than 10 years of guidance and support to the company. Mr. Mosher will continue to support Pelangio as a member of the advisory committee.
