Lonmin appoints COO to board
JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Platinum miner Lonmin has appointed COO Ben Moolman as executive director with immediate effect.
“[This appointment] emphasises the importance the board places on operational performance and safety, particularly as we face significant challenges in these areas as highlighted in our second quarter production report,” CEO Ben Margara said, adding that Moolman played a key role on the management team, overseeing the operational restructuring and improving safety, operational productivity and efficiencies.
Lonmin chairperson Brian Beamish noted that, together with Magara, Simon Scott and the rest of the executive team, Moolman would make a vital contribution to delivering value for shareholders.
Before rejoining Lonmin in August 2014 to head the newly created business support office, Moolman worked at Glencore Xstrata where he headed the platinum division with responsibility for the value chain across all mining and processing operations.
Prior to this, in his previous service to Lonmin, he served in a variety of operational management positions, including mining VP.
