Great Western Mining, the AIM and ESM quoted mineral exploration company with 73 sq. kilometres of mineral claims in south-west Nevada USA, announces that Mr. Christopher Hall has decided to step down from the board as a non-executive director with effect from 15 March 2014. Christopher Hall was appointed to the Company's board at the time of its introduction to AIM Market in 2011 and has seen it through a three year period during which it has carried out first drilling on its mineral project in Nevada and conducted a recent fund-raising which will enable it to build on the results of first drilling and take it to the next stage of development.

GWM Chairman, Brian Hall, commented:

"Christopher has other commitments in the mining industry, at board level and as consultant, and we appreciate his support, the benefit of his experience and the time he has been able to allocate to Great Western during an important growth period for the Company. The board would like to thank him for his participation and wish him well".
