Zijin Mining revises independent director nominee list for ninth term

Zijin Mining Group has updated its nomination for independent non-executive director candidates for the ninth term of its board of directors. Initially, the eighth term's board approved the nomination of seven individuals: Wu Xiaomin, Bo Shao Chuan, Zhang Yongtao, Lin Shoukang, Qu Xiaohui, Hong Bo, and Wang Anjian, for shareholder consideration on November 28, 2025.

However, on December 9, 2025, Zhang Yongtao withdrew his nomination due to personal work reasons, leading to an adjustment in the candidate list. Following consideration, the board of directors agreed to cancel Zhang's nomination. The revised list of independent non-executive director candidates now comprises six individuals: Wu Xiaomin, Bo Shao Chuan, Lin Shoukang, Qu Xiaohui, Hong Bo, and Wang Anjian.

The proposal, which was approved by the nomination and remuneration committee, will be tabled at the company's shareholders' meeting for consideration, with voting results showing 12 votes for, 0 against, and 0 abstained. According to the amended articles of association, the ninth term of the board of directors is required to have seven independent non-executive directors, and the company will proceed with a by-election to fulfill this requirement as soon as possible.
