Titanium minerals and zircon producer Kenmare Resources, which operates the Moma mine, in Mozambique, has appointed Ekaterina (Katia) Ray as an independent nonexecutive director, with immediate effect.

Ray 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 a 15-year career with Rio Tinto from 1993 to 2008, she held various senior positions in sales and marketing, business development and change management. More recently, she worked in business development for Anglo American.

“It is with great pleasure that I welcome Katia Ray to Kenmare’s board as a nonexecutive 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," comments Kenmare chairperson Andrew Webb.

Kenmare director Graham Martin will, meanwhile, step down from the board with effect from January 31, after having served on the board for nine years.

"I would like to thank Graham Martin for his dedicated service during his nine years as a nonexecutive director, before he steps down from the board in January. Graham has played an important role as senior independent director and chairperson 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 chairperson 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," Webb adds.
