Amigo Resources PLC (LSE: AMGO) is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary Amigo Capital FZE has appointed Mr Anil Kumar Reddy Yerrapareddy as Chief Executive Officer of African Mining Operations effective 1 April 2026.
In this key executive role, Anil will report directly to the Executive Chair of Amigo Resources PLC and will be responsible for the strategic identification, technical due diligence, acquisition, and operational management of the Group's mining assets across the African continent, with initial focus on the Company's priority projects in Tanzania and Mauritania.
Professional Background and Track Record
Anil is a highly accomplished mining entrepreneur with over 15 years of global experience spanning mineral exploration, processing, and industrial development across Africa, India, and the Middle East. He is founder, director and ultimate beneficial owner of AK Corporation FZCO ("AK"). AK is headquartered in Dubai, with offices in: Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and Zambia. AK is the strategic technical partner working with Amigo on the two projects that it has announced.
Strategic Alignment
The appointment of Anil is intended to significantly accelerate Amigo's goal of transitioning from exploration to commercial production. By leveraging his unique technical network and proven track record in project de-risking and processing infrastructure development, Amigo aims to expedite the expansion of its resource base and unlock the full value of its district-scale assets in the Kilindi-Handeni Goldfields and the Lake Victoria Gold Belt.
Remuneration and Incentives
In addition to a market-based salary, Anil's remuneration package is designed to align his interests directly with tangible asset growth and shareholder value. Under the terms of his employment agreement, he (or his nominated vehicle) will receive 25% equity in any mining venture, project entity or special purpose vehicle that he introduces to the Group (as an absolute property right). These interests vest automatically upon the acquisition or incorporation of the relevant project and are protected against dilution.
Craig Ransley, Executive Chair, commented:
"We are delighted to welcome Anil to Amigo in this pivotal leadership role. His extensive on-the-ground experience across African mining jurisdictions, combined with a proven track record in project de-risking, processing infrastructure development, makes him the ideal leader to advance our strategic growth ambitions in Africa. Anil's appointment reinforces our commitment to operational excellence and sustainable value creation for shareholders."
Anil Kumar Reddy commented:
