Statement from Andrew Webb, Chairman:

“It is with great pleasure that I welcome Katia Ray to Kenmare’s Board as a Non-Executive Director. With a background in chemical engineering and industrial minerals, Katia brings a wealth of experience in the mining industry, having previously worked for Rio Tinto and Anglo American. I am confident that we will benefit from her strategic approach and technical expertise.

I would like to thank Graham Martin for his dedicated service during his nine years as a Non-Executive Director, before he steps down from the Board in January. Graham has played an important role as Senior Independent Director and Chairman of the Remuneration and Nomination Committees and we are grateful for his sound counsel. I am pleased to say that Elaine Dorward-King has agreed to become Senior Independent Director, in addition to her role as Chair of the Sustainability Committee, and I look forward to working closely with her as we continue to strengthen the Board and support Kenmare’s long-term success.”

Background on Katia Ray

Katia has over 25 years’ senior-level experience in the mining sector, including with FTSE 100 companies in Europe, Africa, North America and Asia. She has worked in a number of different commodities including industrial minerals, diamonds and platinum group metals. During her 15 years with Rio Tinto plc from 1993 to 2008, she held various senior positions in sales and marketing, business development and change management, and more recently she worked in business development for Anglo American plc.

Katia founded her own consultancy, KPNB Limited, in 2009, advising multinational corporations, private equity firms and information providers on strategy, M&A, change management and market entry. She was also a Non-Executive Director of Petropavlovsk plc from 2019 to 2020. She holds a Master of Science Chemical Engineering degree (British equivalent) from the University of Chemical Technology, Moscow.
