KEFI Minerals announced that Mark Wellesley-Wood, who has been Deputy Chairman and Senior Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company since August 2015, has been appointed to the role of Non Executive Chairman with immediate effect. Harry Anagnostaras-Adams, currently Executive Chairman will assume the role of Managing Director with immediate effect. This move separates the roles of Chairman and Managing Director that Harry Anagnostaras-Adams has fulfilled since late 2014 and reflects the Board's desire to strengthen its corporate governance as the Company transitions to the mine build and operational phases of its development.
