ASX: IPT
Date: 20 July 2009

APPOINTMENT OF NEW DIRECTOR
TO THE BOARD OF
IMPACT MINERALS LIMITED
The Directors of Impact Minerals Limited ("Impact") are
pleased to announce the appointment of Mr.

Paul Ingram as a
Non-Executive Director of the Company.
Paul Ingram is the CEO (Australia) and an Executive Director of
Polo Resources Limited ("Polo Resources") which, following the
completion of the placement announced previously on 5 June
2009, will be the largest shareholder in Impact, with a 19.9% equity
interest in the Company.
Mr Ingram has been involved in the mining sector for over thirty
years and is a geologist with extensive experience in managing
major mineral exploration programs for several publicly listed
companies.

He has designed and implemented innovative
techniques for exploration in remote areas, and has managed
projects in countries throughout Australia and East Asia.

He also
has extensive corporate experience and was formerly Managing
Director of Menzies Gold Ltd and Exploration Director of Caledon

Mr.

Ingram has a Bachelor of Applied Science (Geology) degree
from Queensland University of Technology and is a member of
the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and the Mining
Industry Consultants Association.
The experience and international connections of Mr Ingram will
be of significant help to Impact as it progresses its exploration
and development projects in Australia and Africa.
Polo Resources Limited
Polo Resources is an AIM-listed mining and investment company
in the United Kingdom which focuses on global uranium
opportunities (see www.poloresources.com).
Polo Resources also has an equity interest in other ASX-listed preproduction
uranium companies A-CAP Resources Limited,
Berkeley Resources Limited, Extract Resources Limited and Uranex
NL.
Impact"s Uranium Projects
Impact owns 100% of its Botswana Uranium Project which comprises about 25,000 sq km of
Prospecting Licences.

These cover 350 km of the strike extensions of rocks that host uranium
deposits owned by ACAP Resources Ltd at the Letlhakane Project.

ACAP have reported an
inferred resource for the project of 98 million lbs uranium oxide at an average grade 158 ppm
at a cut-off grade of 100 ppm.
Impact"s licences are variably prospective for three types of uranium deposits:
• deposits hosted by Karoo sedimentary rocks, which host uranium deposits in many
places in southern Africa;
• uranium hosted by calcrete in Cainozoic palaeochannels, a style of mineralisation well
known in Australia and Namibia; and
• areas of salt lakes which, in Australia and elsewhere in Africa, are known to host
uranium deposits.
Initial interpretation by Impact has identified about 20 areas with elevated surface uranium
responses and other targets in regional airborne radiometric data.

Following field work, six
of these areas were identified as high priority with widespread surface uranium anomalism
in calcretes and sandstones.
Impact Minerals also owns approximately 40% of the Inferred Resource of uranium oxide
within the Nowthanna calcrete-hosted uranium deposit located 70 km south east of
Meekatharra in Western Australia.

At a cut-off grade of 0.2 kg/t (200 ppm) uranium oxide
Impact"s 40% share of the deposit is about 3.92 Mt at an average grade of 0.45 kg/t (450 ppm)
for a contained 1,800 t or 4 million pounds of uranium oxide (JORC 2004).
