To further strengthen Silver Wheaton's team, Mr. Frazer Bourchier, P.Eng. will join Silver Wheaton as Vice President, Business Development and Technical Services, also effective January 1, 2010. "Randy was a co-founder of Silver Wheaton in 2004 and has been instrumental in helping build Silver Wheaton into the largest silver streaming company in the world," said Peter Barnes, Chief Executive Officer of Silver Wheaton. "His appointment as President is in recognition of his significant contribution to our growth and his long term commitment to the Company. In addition to his key role of continuing to identify high quality growth opportunities, he will take on the added responsibility of helping to increase awareness of the Silver Wheaton brand. I am as excited as ever about the future prospects of our Company and look forward to continuing to work with Randy and the rest of the Silver Wheaton team to maintain Silver Wheaton as the market leader in our sector.

Randy Smallwood assumed the role of Executive Vice President, Corporate Development of Silver Wheaton in 2007 and has been primarily focused on growing the Company through the evaluation and acquisition of silver stream opportunities. Prior to 2007, Mr. Smallwood was Director of Project Development for both Silver Wheaton and Goldcorp/Wheaton River Minerals. In this role he was responsible for project evaluations through a six-year period of acquisitions and corporate mergers, ultimately helping to build Goldcorp into one of the largest gold companies in the world. Before joining the original Wheaton River group in 1993, Mr. Smallwood also worked with Homestake Mining Company, Teck Corp. and Westmin Resources. Frazer Bourchier brings over 20 years of high-level management experience to his new role, most of which were spent with Placer Dome in Canada, South Africa and Papua New Guinea. He is a qualified mining engineer with Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Applied Science & Engineering from the University of Toronto. Most recently, Mr. Bourchier was Vice-President Operations and Business Development for Intrepid Mines. About Silver Wheaton Silver Wheaton is the largest silver streaming company in the world. Forecast 2009 production is 16 million ounces of silver and 17,000 ounces of gold, for total production of 17 million silver equivalent ounces. By 2013, annual production is anticipated to more than double to approximately 39 million ounces of silver and 20,000 ounces of gold, for total production of approximately 40 million silver equivalent ounces.
