Celtic Resources Holdings Plc ("Celtic" or the "Company")
Shareholder Update
The Directors of Celtic can confirm that on 13 November 2006 the Company
received a requisition to convene an extraordinary general meeting ("EGM") of
the Company's shareholders ("Shareholders") from Aton International Limited
("Aton") on behalf of a group of shareholders, who in aggregate have reported
holding 11.6 per cent. of the issued share capital of the Company.
The purpose of the suggested EGM was to allow Shareholders to discuss and vote
on certain aspects of the Company's strategy, its proposed acquisition of Eureka
Mining Plc and to propose the payment by Celtic of a dividend to Shareholders.
In the intervening period the Directors of Celtic have engaged in a constructive
dialogue with representatives of Aton to discuss these issues. Aton has
subsequently agreed to withdraw its request for an EGM.
