APPOINTMENT OF NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS

Bathurst Resources Limited ("Bathurst" or "the Company" NZX/ASX: BRL)
announces the appointment of two non-executive directors to the Company's
Board.

Mr Russell Middleton and Mr Peter Westerhuis were both appointed today
further to the Chairman, Malcolm Macpherson, signalling his intention to
retire in May, and following the resignation of Chief Executive Officer and
Managing Director, Hamish Bohannan, earlier this year.

Mr Middleton is Chief Financial Officer for Hillgrove Resources Limited.
Based in Sydney, he has over 25 years' experience in the mining, construction
and services sectors spanning all facets of the mining project life cycle. Mr
Middleton has worked for various sized organisations with experience that
crosses over from an asset owner perspective to mining contracting in service
and construction.

Mr Westerhuis has more than 30 years' Australian and international resources
experience; the last 6 years at CEO/MD level. He was Managing Director of
Guildford Coal, developing a coking coal project in Mongolia, and CEO of the
Ensham Resources joint venture, developer and operator of large open cut and
underground reserves in Queensland. Mr Westerhuis is currently providing
management consulting services to resource companies in Africa and South
America.

Chairman Malcolm Macpherson said "The appointment of these two non-executive
directors will add further corporate and commercial expertise to the Board as
Bathurst focuses on maintaining sustainable operations in the current market
conditions."
