The AIM-traded investment company said Hattingh, a South Africa-based geologist with more than 30 years’ experience in mining and exploration, had worked closely with the firm for several years and so had detailed knowledge of its asset base.

He had been involved in the preparation of mineral resource estimates for the group’s heavy mineral sands and diamond projects.

Hattingh previously held senior roles at the Geological Survey of South Africa, the Council for Geoscience and Trans Hex Mining, and currently served as chief executive of Creo Design, an exploration and resource development consultancy.

Kazera said he had extensive experience in developing mining operations and preparing competent persons’ reports and mineral resource estimates for listed companies, and is a qualified person under AIM rules.

“We are pleased to confirm Johan's appointment to the board following the completion of due diligence,” said non-executive chairman Geoff Eyre.

“His deep technical expertise and detailed knowledge of the company's asset base will be important as we focus on improving production consistency and volumes, and advancing our projects.”

Kazera confirmed that Hattingh did not currently hold any shares, options or warrants in the company.

It also disclosed that he was a director of Roc Mining between June and July 2000, with the company entering liquidation proceedings in January 2001.

At 1002 BST, shares in Kazera Global were up 2.18% at 0.87p.
