Frank Cooper, Peter Kukielski, Futhi Mtoba and Wayne Osborn would become nonexecutive directors of the Perth-based mining company, effective May 7, while Xolani Mkhwanazi would step in effective July, following a transition from BHP Billiton.

Keith Rumble would retire from the BHP Billiton board to take up a board appointment at South32 from May 22.

As previously reported, South32 president and COO-designate Mike Fraser would head up the regional head office and global shared services centre in Johannesburg, while his Australian counterpart, Ricus Grimbeek, would run the Australian division of the newly formed company.
