CHANGES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Pan African shareholders ("Shareholders") are hereby advised that Rob Still has

any board committees of Pan African.

Shareholders are also advised that Rowan Smith has accepted the appointment as
a non-executive director on Pan African's board of directors. Rowan will be
formally appointed to the board and the effective date of his appointment will
be announced once the AIM processes pertaining to his appointment have been
completed.

qualified geologist and has in excess of 20 years of experience in the minerals
and investment banking industries. His experience also includes geological
valuation work for Rand Mines, seven years with Societe Generale de
Surveillance and four years as a Director of Investec Bank's Resource Finance
Division.

Keith Spencer, Chairman of Pan African, commented: "The board of directors and
I would like to thank Rob for his invaluable contribution to Pan African over
the past 10 years, during which Pan African has grown from a junior exploration
company to a mid-tier miner with a market capitalisation in excess of US$400m.
We wish him well in his future endeavours. Rowan's appointment as a
non-executive director will further strengthen the technical and commercial
expertise available to our board, and we look forward to working with him. "
