Toronto- and Johannesburg-listed Eastern Platinum (Eastplats) has appointed chairperson Changyu Liu as interim president and CEO, with effect from August 13, to succeed Wanjin Yang, who is stepping down.

The platinum group metals and chrome miner, with assets in South Africa, notes that Yang's resignation is not related to the company's operations or financial reporting. It also thanks him for his contributions, dedication and support to Eastplats during his tenure.

The company has started a recruitment process for a new president and CEO.
