Hamak Gold Limited

("Hamak Gold" or the "Company")

Appointment of Nicola Horlick as Non-Executive Director

Hamak Gold Limited (LSE: HAMA), a company combining traditional gold
exploration in West Africa with a Digital Asset Treasury Management strategy,
is pleased to announce the appointment of Nicola Horlick as a Non-Executive
Director. Nicola will also join both the Audit Committee and the Remuneration
Committee of the Board.

Nicola Horlick is a prominent figure in the UK investment industry, with over
35 years of experience in institutional fund management, corporate governance,
and financial innovation. She has been described in the British media as the
"City superwoman" due to her high-profile career and pioneering success in
leading major asset management businesses.

Nicola began her career at S.G. Warburg before moving to Morgan Grenfell
Investment Management, where she became Managing Director and oversaw the
management of multi-billion-pound institutional portfolios.  Over the
following five years, funds under management quadrupled.

In 2004, she founded Bramdean Asset Management, specialising in alternative
investments and private equity, and in 2013, founded Money&Co., a fintech
lending platform focused on providing capital to UK SMEs from institutional
and private investors. Nicola continues to serve as CEO of Money&Co. and
remains active in the financial services sector, with board-level roles across
multiple private companies.

Nicola's deep experience spans equities, fixed income, private capital,
alternative assets, and retail and institutional fund distribution. She brings
extensive boardroom knowledge and regulatory insight, having served in both
executive and non-executive capacities, including as Chair and Committee
Member of regulated financial services firms.

Nicola holds a degree in Jurisprudence from Balliol College, Oxford, and has
consistently championed innovation, transparency, and diversity in the
investment industry.

Nick Thurlow, Executive Chairman of Hamak Gold, commented:

"We are delighted to welcome Nicola to the Board.She brings deep institutional
investment experience, extensive governance expertise, and a unique
perspective as both an asset management leader and financial innovator. Her
appointment strengthens our board at a pivotal time and reinforces our
ambition to create long-term value for shareholders."

Nicola Horlick added:

"Hamak Gold is building a fascinating business, which I believe will be
attractive to both institutional and private investors. In an uncertain world,
alternative assets have provided diversification for fund managers who are
constantly looking for investment opportunities that are uncorrelated with
equity markets. I look forward to working with my new colleagues on the board
of Hamak Gold and to helping to grow the business."
