[s-d76] [s-d4] [s-d6] ## Chairman and chief executive - Analysis: Jeremy Weir joined the group in 2001 and was its chief executive for more than a decade before becoming non-executive chairman on 1 January 2025; Spain's commercial-register gazette and an aggregator record him as chairman of the Spanish mining companies Minas de Aguas Teñidas and TM Mining Ventures. His successor as chief executive, Richard Holtum, was a director of the UK company Trafigura Limited in 2023–2024, and both were members of the statutory body of Trafigura Trading (Europe) Sàrl recorded in the Czech register.

Pierre Lorinet became a director of five UK companies in 2010, all since left or dissolved, and Andrew Vickerman's UK register entries include Cambridge Energy, Petropavlovsk and a Rio Tinto pension trustee. [s-d92] [s-d94] [s-d93] [s-d96] - Qualification: The aggregator matches the name 'Trafigura Holdings Ltd.' without a registry number, so which company of that name is meant is not certain. ## Sources - [s-d76] Company statement source · s-d76 - [s-d4] Company statement source · s-d4 - [s-d6] Company statement source · s-d6 - [s-d216] Company statement source · s-d216 - [s-d274] Commercial-registry gazette entry (BORME), 2019, on Minas de Aguas Teñidas, Agencia Estatal Boletín Oficial del Estado (Spain), 2019-11 - [s-d107] Corporate registry source · s-d107 - [s-d293] Corporate registry source · s-d293 - [s-d95] Corporate registry source · s-d95 - [s-d252] Public-register record: Trafigura Trading (Europe) Sàrl, Czech branch (06262341), ARES, Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic, 2026-10-16 - [s-d92] Corporate registry source · s-d92 - [s-d94] Corporate registry source · s-d94 - [s-d93] Corporate registry source · s-d93 - [s-d96] Corporate registry source · s-d96
