London, England & Baie Verte, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada - Rambler Metals and Mining plc (TSXV: RAB, AIM: RMM) ('Rambler' or the 'Company'), a copper and gold producer operating in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, announces proposed change to the Company's Board of Directors.  Subject to approval and completion of diligence as required under the AIM Rules for Companies and AIM Rules for Nominated Advisors, Mr. Glenn Poulter will be nominated by management for election by the shareholders of the Company at the upcoming Annual General Meeting scheduled for 2:30 pm (GMT) on 4 December 2014 at the offices of Cantor Fitzgerald Europe, One Churchill Place, Level 20 Canary Wharf, London, England (the "AGM").

Mr. Glenn Poulter, aged 50, has over 30 years of experience within financial services in the City of London. He has held a number of senior positions including Director of Nat West Markets, Director of UBS, Managing Director of Citi, Co-CEO of ICAP Equities and Director of Oriel Securities.

Mr. Poulter has a strong background in global equities focusing on strategic positioning, scenario planning and leadership.

"Bringing Mr. Poulter in at this point in time will add tremendous value to the Company and the Board of the Directors as a whole.  Glenn has years of experience working with London listed companies and his past work experiences will add new insight as Rambler continues its growth towards becoming a mid-tier base and precious metal producer.

"On behalf of the Board of Directors I would like to welcome Mr. Poulter to our team and wish him success in becoming elected at this year's Annual General Meeting."
