MineralsCouncilSABusinessLive reports that the Minerals Council SA (MCSA), which was previously called the Chamber of Mines, has appointed Mzila Mthenjane, the head of stakeholder affairs at Exxaro Resources, as its CEO.

He replaces Roger Baxter who has served in leadership roles at the council for nine years. Mthenjane will join the MCSA in late-August. He has over 30 years of experience in the mining industry. Baxter will leave the MCSA at the end of June. After leaving Royal Bafokeng Platinum, Mthenjane joined Exxaro in 2013 where he was responsible for facilitation, development and maintenance of the group’s business strategy processes. “With his high competence in mining, stakeholder management and given his experience in developing sustainability strategies, he is well placed to support the Minerals Council as we focus on the ESG [environmental, social and governance] agenda,” council president Nolitha Fakude said. Paul Dunne (CEO, Northam Platinum), Themba Mkhwanazi (CEO, bulk commodities, Anglo American) and Peter Steenkamp (CEO, Harmony Gold) agreed to their reappointment as MCSA office bearers, ensuring continuity, the council said. They will be joined by Dr Nombasa Tsengwa, CEO of Exxaro Resources.
