Trek waves in Reece on Leibowitz resignation

Trek Metals’ (ASX:TKM) Chairman and Director Tony Leibowitz has tendered his resignation as of 30 April 2026.

He will remain with the company in an advisory capacity and will be succeeded by Andrew Reece, who joined the board as a non-executive director last year. 

Leibowitz has been on the board of Trek since 4 September 2020, overseeing the company’s evolution to advance its portfolio of assets, including Christmas Creek in Western Australia. 

Reece has extensive commercial and executive leadership experience, co-founding Inspect Real Estate and serving as CEO through to its acquisition. 

Director Andrew Reece says the board is grateful for Leibowitz’s contribution to the company.

“Tony has played an important role in guiding the company’s corporate development and market engagement and we wish him all the best in the future,” Reece says. 

“I am excited about the opportunity to lead Trek as Chairman, as we embark on a transformational period for the company.”

Chairman Tony Leibowitz says it has been a “privilege” to serve on the board of Trek.

“I am proud of the progress the company has made over the past several years, particularly with the recent Kuro manganese discovery and I leave the board with confidence in the company’s people, strategy, and future prospects,” Leibowitz says. 

Trek Metals is an exploration company focused on unlocking value in underexplored regions.
