pleased to announce that Mark Burridge has agreed, in principle, to become a
Director of the new mining company ("Goldco") being spun out from BacTech, upon

operations, M&A and financings. Most recently, he was CEO of Cambrian Mining Plc
up until its acquisition by Western Canadian Coal. Prior to this, he was
Managing Director at Hatch Corporate Finance, a corporate finance advisory firm.
Earlier experience includes positions with Merrill Lynch, where he was a ranked
Analyst, and with Barrick Gold Corporation, as a Geological Engineer. He has a
degree in Mining Geology and is a Chartered Financial Analyst.

cost effective manner," said Ross Orr.


BACTECH PROFILE

BacTech owns patented bacterial oxidation technology for the treatment of
refractory ores and concentrates to enhance the recovery of gold, silver and
base metals. The Company's focus is the acquisition of equity positions in
projects amenable to bioleaching. In January the Company announced its intention
to effect a divisive reorganization whereby BacTech will transfer all of its
interests in mining projects and the rights to its bioleaching technology to a
wholly-owned subsidiary. The common shares of the subsidiary will be distributed
to the shareholders of BacTech upon completion of the reorganization. BacTech
will hold an exclusive and perpetual right to use the bioleaching technology for
projects related to environmental remediation of mine tailings.
