Heraldo de Madrid - Galway Metals Announces Changes to the Board of Directors and Granting of Options

Director Changes

Mr. Michael Kazickas was appointed to the Board following the AGM on October 25, 2024. Mr. Kazickas' career has been dedicated to building up a successful commodity trading business that he later successfully sold in 2013. This trading business was based out of New York and was focused on the trading of oil, precious and basic metals. Over the years, Mr. Kazickas built up an extensive network of institutional traders and bankers operating in different areas of the commodity trading arena. Mike initiated his career in the NYBOT futures and later switched the focus to oil and precious metals. Prior to starting his trading business, Mr. Kazickas started a truck rental business and a home decor manufacturing business as well. In recent years Mr. Kazickas business efforts have been focused on proprietary trading portfolio with a focus on value stocks and commodities.

The Board has since accepted the resignation of Alfonso Gomez Rengifo as a director of the Company, and as member of the Board's Audit Committee and newly formed Compensation Committee effective December 4, 2024.

"It has been an absolute pleasure working with Alfonso for 25 years. Initially as a country manager in Colombia and more recently as a Director for Galway Metals since its inception 10 years ago, I wish him well in his retirement but am excited with two recent additions at the board level" states Rob Hinchcliffe, President and CEO of Galway Metals.He adds "At the operational level, our focus continues to be directed to our Clarence Stream Gold Project led by Project Manager Jesse Fisher. It is worth noting that Phil Walford and Alan Moranda are actively supporting our geologists at the project level. We look forward to a prosperous 2025."

The board is also pleased to announce that Mr. Andreas Curkovic has been joined as a director of the Company to fill the vacancy created by the foregoing resignation and has been appointed to the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee in place of Mr. Gomez. Mr. Curkovic has spent twenty plus years in the capital markets in asset management, sales, and as a founder of Proconsul Capital, an investor relations and capital advisory firm where he has worked with more than two hundred public companies. Over the years, Mr. Curkovic has developed a unique network of investors across North America. He graduated from McMaster University and is a Chartered Financial Analyst.

As previously announced in the Company's AGM materials, Mr. Joseph Cartafalsa and Mr. Michael Sutton did not stand for re-election at the AGM. Galway Metals thanks Mr. Cartafalsa and Mr. Sutton for their contributions to the Company.
