Savannah Resources Plc
("Savannah", "SAV" or "the Company")
Change of Name
African Mining & Exploration plc (AIM: SAV) is pleased to announce that it has changed its name to Savannah Resources Plc (AIM: SAV). Dealings under the new name will commence at 8am today when the Company's TIDM (ticker symbol) will change from "AME" to "SAV". The Company also confirms that its website has now changed to www.savannahresources.com.
The change of name follows the recent announcement of the Company's change in strategic focus that has already seen it make significant progress in transforming the Company from a single country, West African focussed gold explorer towards holding a portfolio of resource projects in different geographies. This transition is led by a globally experienced Board and management team with extensive experience in the resources industry.
David Archer, the CEO of Savannah commented "The change of name to Savannah Resources Plc underscores the change of strategic direction and the broadening of the Company's investment horizons".
It is noted that the existing AME share certificates will remain valid and that no replacement certificates are required, or will be issued, in the name of Savannah Resources Plc.
