                          Celtic Resources Holdings Plc
                          ("Celtic" or "the Company")
                                        
                      Celtic streamlines Board of Directors
                                        

As foreshadowed in December 2006, by Celtic's Chairman Peter Hannen, the Company
announces a reduction in board size with the retirement of Michael Nesbitt and 
resignation of Euan Worthington.  Mr. Worthington has agreed to remain available
as a consultant for six months.

Commenting on the moves, Celtic's Chairman, Peter Hannen said "I would like to 
thank Michael Nesbitt, who was a foundation director of Celtic, for over 10 
years of service and Euan Worthington, who has served for almost six years and 
has been instrumental in the corporate development of Celtic.  I wish them well 
in their future endeavours."
