BAY CITY, MI--(MARKET WIRE)--Jun 3, 2008 -- Sarissa Resources, Inc. (Other OTC:SRSR.PK) announced today that the Company has appointed seasoned mining industry veteran and project geologist, Alan A. Hawke B.Sc. M.Sc to its Board of Directors. Mr. Hawke, currently based in Tianjin, China, will offer his considerable experience to assist Sarissa in the ongoing exploration program of its Nemegosenda carbonatite deposit and extensive industry connections to source new and compelling exploration properties for the Company's property portfolio.
In a distinguished mining and exploration career that has spanned 30 years and three continents, Mr. Hawke has operated in key managerial roles -- encompassing mine development and construction management -- with prominent mining companies including eight years in Indonesia with PT Kelian Equatorial Mining. While at Kelian as project geologist, Mr. Hawke was responsible for all exploration activities, definition drill-out and resource studies that identified the Kelian Gold Mine.
Sarissa Resources CEO, Scott Keevil, stated, "I am thrilled to be working with Alan again, and want to warmly welcome him on board. He is the consummate exploration and mining professional possessing a stellar reputation among the industry's elite. His operational know-how and deep-rooted business connections will help create enormous value for Sarissa shareholders."
Ben Fuschino, who had served as Sarissa's president before Mr. Keevil, has resigned from the Board to concentrate on his other business ventures.
