Greystar Resources Appoints Richard Robinson to Board of Directors
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Dec. 17, 2009) - Greystar Resources Ltd. (TSX:GSL)(AIM:GSL)
(the "Company") is pleased to announce the appointment of Richard L. Robinson to the Board of
Directors effective January 1, 2010. Mr. Robinson will serve as a non-executive director.
Richard Robinson (56 years old) was formerly Chief Executive Officer of Gold Fields Limited (1997-
1998) and an executive director of Gold Fields of South Africa Ltd (GFSA). During his tenure, Robinson
led the successful merging of GFSA's and Gencor Ltd.'s gold assets to form Gold Fields Limited. In
addition, at various times during his career at Gold Fields, Robinson had executive responsibility for
gold operations, gold exploration, international operations, the base metals and coal operations, and
all group commercial activities.
Following Gold Fields, Robinson became Managing Director of Normandy LaSource SAS (1998-2001), a joint
venture between Normandy Mining Limited of Australia and the French State, with interests in Africa,
Europe, Middle East and CIS. Robinson was responsible for the unbundling and restructuring of the
joint venture to focus on precious metals with concurrent management of its gold operations,
exploration and development projects.
Currently, Robinson is a Director of Recylex SA, a Euronext listed company involved in base metal
recycling, refining and high purity special metals and Crew Gold Corporation, a Toronto and Oslo
listed company involved in gold mining in Guinea. Robinson recently stepped down as Chairman of the
Board of Metalor Technologies International SA following the sale of the company to private equity.
"Richard brings over 30 years of wide ranging experience in the mining industry to Greystar. His
addition to the Board of Directors will add immediate depth as Greystar transitions from a developer
to a producer," commented David Rovig, Chairman.
Except for the declarations above there is no further information to be disclosed in respect of the
appointment of Mr. Robinson under AIM Rule 17 or Schedule Two paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules for
Companies.
