Change of Auditors

6th November 2024

Griffin Mining Limited ("Griffin" or the "Company") announces that the directors have resolved to appoint BDO LLP ("BDO") as auditors to the Company to fill a casual vacancy to serve until the next Annual General Meeting of the Company, following a competitive tender process.

There is no allegation or indication of anything untoward concerning the audit of Griffin's financial statements by PricewaterhouseCoopers ("PWC"), following penalties imposed upon the PWC China firm (PricewaterhouseCoopers Zhong Tian LLP) by the Chinese authorities resulting from their audit work elsewhere in China. 

BDO is an international network of public accounting, tax and advisory firms that perform professional services under the name of BDO. It is represented in 166 territories, and has over 115,700 people working out of over 1,770 offices worldwide. BDO's China practice is one of the leading audit firms in China.

Griffin thanks PWC for their past services and looks forward to working with BDO.
