JayHawk Energy, Inc. says that Lindsay Gorrill, CEO of JayHawk Energy, has been appointed to the position of President of the Company.

The appointment follows the resignation of Marshall Diamond-Goldberg as JayHawk's President and a member of its board of directors. This appointment will allow Gorrill to become even more involved in the day to day operations of JayHawk. This renewed commitment by Gorrill follows on his recent purchase of $144,000 worth of the Company's restricted common shares; bringing his total stake in the Company to over 5 million shares.

As President of JayHawk Energy, Gorrill will execute on the Company's comprehensive business plan designed to accelerate the Company's growth and creating further value for its shareholders.

Gorrill stated, "Following Marshall Diamond-Goldberg's resignation the board of directors felt it was in our shareholder's best interest that I take on the responsibilities of President at this juncture. The Board thanked Marshall for his prior service to the Company, and he will continue to consult with the Company on an ongoing basis, but as President, I believe I can personally foster an environment of growth by helping to create valuable opportunities to further develop the Company's presence within the industry. I am delighted to represent JayHawk and its shareholders in the capacity of President and look forward to driving the Company's success forward."
