Mr. Aly Mawji, President of Golden Touch stated: "Golden Touch and JAB have achieved another significant milestone by obtaining TSX-V final acceptance for the acquisition of JAB. The Company looks forward to completing the scheme of arrangement over the coming days with security holders of JAB. I would like to welcome Mr. Rob Murdoch to the Board of Directors and look forward to advancing on the significant work already completed to date by JAB and its team.

Mr. Rob Murdoch, Executive Chairman of JAB, and new Chairman of Golden Touch stated: "I am very pleased to join the current Board of Golden Touch with the directive to advance the work of JAB over the last five years. I feel with the capital market experience Golden Touch brings, along with JAB's technical expertise, the Company can become an industry leader in Albania."

JAB has already spent in excess of US$5 million on exploration within the permit areas, which has resulted in the outlining of significant gold, platinum group elements (PGE) and chromite mineralization. Golden Touch has filed updated National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") compliant technical reports on the Albanian Exploration Projects with the TSX-V and once they have cleared comments the updated NI 43-101 reports will be posted on SEDAR.
