Change of Directors' Roles and update regarding Quadling Quarry

Pan Pacific Aggregates plc (AIM:PPA), a quarry operator in British Columbia, today announces a change of Directors' roles and an update regarding Quadling Quarry.

Change of Directors' Roles

Euan McAlpine will become Executive Chairman with immediate effect and William Voaden will become Managing Director. This will strengthen the effectiveness of the board and improve corporate governance by splitting these roles.

In addition, the Company is looking to strengthen its board with the appointment of another non executive Director with considerable AIM and public markets experience.

Update regarding Quadling Quarry

Recently, the City of Abbotsford has approved an application by the Company to extend working hours at Quadling Quarry. This puts the quarry on the same footing as nearby competitor quarries. The change of working hours allows the Company to process and load customers' trucks in a more efficient manner and also to synchronise production with their customers' requirements.

The Company is now embarking on the next stage of development at the quarry, maximising the quality and quantity of its existing reserves by the diversion of the British Columbia Hydro power cable, which is expected to be completed within Q3 2011.

The quarry continues to be fully operational and is performing to the Directors' expectations in terms of sales and pricing.

Annual Report and Accounts

The Company intends that the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ending 31 December 2010 will be published and sent to shareholders by the end of this month.

A further announcement will be made following the Meeting of PPA creditors and General Meeting of shareholders later today.
