Director
Berkeley Energia is pleased to announce that highly respected
London-based mining executive Mr Nigel Jones has been appointed as

Mr Jones has thirty years' experience in the international

Mr Jones spent two decades at Rio Tinto, where ultimately he
held the position of Global Head of Business Development and prior
to that Managing Director of Rio Tinto Marine, Head of Investor
Relations and Marketing Director, Uranium.
Mr Jones was recently appointed as Head of Private Side Capital
Markets at ICBC Standard Bank, the global markets subsidiary of

Mr Jones will replace Dr Jim Ross, who is today retiring from
the Board after over twelve years of service.
Paul Atherley, Managing Director, commented:
"We are delighted to welcome Nigel to the Board, a key
appointment in step with the Company's transition into a
European-focused uranium developer and producer.
We believe his considerable experience in corporate development
and marketing of uranium products will be of considerable value to
the Company.
On behalf of the Board and the rest of the Company, I would like
to sincerely thank Dr Ross for his guidance and many contributions
to the highly successful transformation of the Company from a
junior explorer to an institutionally backed European uranium
developer. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours."
