FCR, the European lead-zinc explorer, is pleased to announce that Mr Daniel Smith has been

of Australia and has over 10 years’ primary and secondary capital markets expertise. As a director
of Minerva Corporate, he has advised on, and been involved in, over a dozen IPOs, RTOs and
capital raisings on both the ASX and NSX. His key focus is on corporate governance and
compliance, commercial due diligence and transaction structuring, as well as ongoing investor and
stakeholder engagement. Mr Smith is also currently Company Secretary for Taruga Gold Limited
and Love Group Global Limited, both listed on the ASX. He holds a BA in International Relations
from Curtin University, Western Australia.

Mr Grant Button has resigned from his position as Company Secretary with immediate effect but
will continue to serve as a Non-Executive Director of the Company. The Board would like to thank

Commenting today, Mr Laurence Read, Executive Director, said:
“We continue to identify and implement cost efficiencies in order to best position the Company to deliver
shareholder value from our ongoing exploration work. The appointment of Daniel and Minerva Corporate
signals a new way forward for the administration and financial management of the Company on
shareholders’ behalf. I believe that appointing Minerva, a professional company secretarial and
administrative services provider to numerous ASX companies, will enable us to deliver further cost
savings and efficiencies during 2018, thereby allowing the maximum amount of funds to be allocated to
continued exploration work at our promising Toral lead-zinc and associated metals project in Léon,
Spain. ”
