Mr. Kelly Strong has been appointed as a Non-Executive Director on the Board of Ironbark Zinc Limited as a nominee of Nyrstar N.V. Ironbark advises that Mr. Jason Dunning has resigned as a Non-Executive Director of Ironbark as a result of him accepting another role outside of Nyrstar.

In his current role Mr. Strong is responsible for all of Nyrstar's zinc mining and milling operations in Canada and the United States, operating the mining of polymetallic zinc ore bodies, and associated products.
