Directorate Change

KAZ Minerals PLC (“KAZ Minerals” or “the Company”) announces that Clinton Dines has decided to step down as an independent non-executive Director of the Company and consequently as a member of the Audit Committee and the Health, Safety and Environment (“HSE”) Committee with effect from 31 December 2015.

Clinton Dines has served on the Board of Kazakhmys PLC and KAZ Minerals for six years. During that time he has provided valuable insight and assistance in building the strong partnerships in China which have helped KAZ Minerals to deliver its strategy of high growth, low cost copper production in Kazakhstan.

In light of this Board change, John MacKenzie (an independent non-executive Director of the Company) will join the Audit Committee with effect from 1 January 2016. There will be four remaining members of the HSE Committee so there are no plans to appoint a replacement to that committee.

Following the departure of Clinton Dines, the Board will remain fully compliant with the independence requirements of the UK Corporate Governance Code, with a majority of independent non-executive Directors.

Simon Heale, Chairman, said: “I would like to thank Clinton on behalf of the Board and all of our colleagues in KAZ Minerals for the valued contribution he has made to the Group since 2009. Clinton’s knowledge of China combined with his experience of the global resources sector have been a great asset to the Group as we have re-focused the business on copper and the development of our major growth projects in conjunction with our Chinese partners. We wish Clinton every success in the future.”
