Blackstone Minerals’ (ASX:BSX) CEO Scott Williamson is resigning as of 31 January 2026, amid the company entering a leadership transition phase.
In the interim, the board has appointed Geoff Gilmour, currently a non-executive director, as Executive Chairman to maintain continuity while a search for a new CEO continues.
The board has also expanded its ranks with the appointment of Greg Cunnold as a non-executive director. Cunnold brings geological experience from his previous role at IDM, including technical exposure to the Mankayan Copper-Gold Project in the Philippines.
Cunnold’s addition to the board is intended to bolster technical oversight amid ongoing exploration programs.
The company says it will update shareholders once a permanent CEO appointment is made and as the leadership search progresses.
Blackstone Minerals is a critical metals explorer focused on discovering minerals needed for the global energy transition.
