Yancoal Australia Ltd has announced the appointment of Mr. Sharif Burra as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective 8 September 2025. Mr. Burra is an experienced mining executive with 28 years of experience spanning open-cut and underground mining, business improvement, technical studies, and due diligence and asset valuation. He has held several roles at Yancoal over the past 12 years, including General Manager - Operation Services, General Manager - Procurement and Major Contracts, General Manager - Operations Improvement / Business Improvement, and Executive General Manager - Health, Safety and Sustainability. He is also a member of the Yancoal Executive Committee. The Board believes Mr. Burra's broad experience and existing knowledge of Yancoal's operations will provide continuity to the CEO role and enable him to effectively implement the Company's operational and strategic priorities.
