MANAGEMENT UPDATE

Adriatic Metals PLC (ASX: ADT, LSE:ADT1, OTCQX:ADMLF) announces the following management changes.

As the Company transitions from developer to a producing mining operation, Mike Norris, Chief Financial Officer, has resigned to pursue other opportunities. Michael Horner, Head of Business Development, has been appointed interim-CFO. Michael joined Adriatic in 2022 and brings over 10 years of progressive mining industry experience across M&A, capital markets, finance and operations.

Paul Cronin, AdriaticÕs Managing Director and CEO, commented: 

"On behalf of the Board I would like to extend my gratitude to Mike Norris for his contributions to Adriatic over the past two years and wish him well for his future endeavours. Mike joined the team at the commencement of the construction of the Vares Silver Operation, and through solid fiscal discipline, successfully navigated that pivotal period to bring the project to completion, largely on time and on budget, despite substantial macro headwinds.

We welcome Michael Horner to the role of interim-CFO. Michael brings considerable experience in corporate finance and will lead Adriatic through its next phase as a producer, working to lower our cost of capital, and execute on new growth opportunities.

As the Company transitions to mining owner operator over the coming months, the management team will focus on increasing underground development, enhancing operational efficiencies, and bringing the Operations to nameplate production in Q4 2024.Ò
