Bernard Pryor has been appointed MD of Karo Holdings, in which platinum group metals and chrome miner Tharisa holds a 66.3% interest.

Karo Holdings holds an indirect 85% interest in the Karo platinum project in Zimbabwe.

Pryor is a metallurgical engineer with more than 35 years’ experience in the international mining industry.

He has held senior executive positions across a range of disciplines, including project acquisition, evaluation, development and construction and has run large-scale fully operational mining assets.

His experience also includes international commercial and general management, most notably in Australia, Brazil, West and Southern Africa, the Middle East and Russia.

Recently, Pryor was CEO of Alufer Mining where, under his supervision, its flagship Bel Air bauxite mine, in the Republic of Guinea, was developed and put into production.

“We are privileged to have Bernie join our team as we embark on this transformative journey, developing our Tier 1 Karo Platinum asset in Zimbabwe. His technical expertise coupled with developing mines around the globe ensures we have leadership in place that will deliver on our stated objectives.

“I look forward to working with Bernie as we develop our second high-grade, low-cost and high-return PGM asset,” says Tharisa CEO Phoevos Pouroulis.
