Sylvania Platinum Limited
("Sylvania", the "Company" or the "Group")
Board Changes
Sylvania (AIM: SLP), the platinum group metals ("PGM") and chrome producer and
developer, with assets in South Africa, announces that Ms. Lewanne Carminati
will be stepping down from the position of Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and
from the Board of Sylvania, to pursue personal development goals, with effect
from 30 November 2025.
Following an external process, Sylvania is pleased to announce the promotion
of Executive Officer Finance, Ms. Ronel Bosman, to the position of CFO, with
effect from 1 December 2025. Ronel is a seasoned financial executive with over
20 years of experience, including more than 15 years in finance and leadership
roles across sectors such as mining, facilities management and investment.
Ronel has been with Sylvania since 2021, and in her current role oversees the
financial, treasury and tax functions for the South African subsidiaries,
leading a team of 18 professionals. Her previous roles at Tsebo, Archer
Daniels Midlands and Thebe Investments have further demonstrated her ability
to manage complex financial operations, implement cost saving initiatives, and
drive financial performance across diverse business environments. She has
consistently delivered results by aligning financial strategies with business
goals, streamlining reporting systems, and fostering high performing teams.
She will join the Board of Directors ("Board") in due course.
Eileen Carr, Independent Non-Executive Chair of Sylvania, commented:
"I would like to thank Lewanne for everything she has done for Sylvania over
the past 16 years, five of those as CFO. Her dedication, professionalism and
leadership have been exemplary, and she will be sorely missed by everyone at
the Company. Lewanne has greatly contributed to the ongoing success of the
business and leaves us in a strong position, primed for further growth. On
behalf of the Board, I wish her all the very best for the future.
"I would also like to congratulate Ronel on her new, richly-deserved role. Her
financial expertise, operational insight, leadership skills and knowledge of
the Company made her the standout candidate, and I have no doubt she'll be
successful in the role."

The Group also holds mining rights for PGM projects in the Northern Limb of
the BIC.
