Lucara Diamond chief financial officer (CFO) and corporate secretary Zara Boldt and vice president (VP) of technical services John Armstrong have both resigned.
The diamond company said that Boldt will step down on December 29, 2023, while Armstrong will leave on December 1, 2023.
“Over the last five years, Zara's leadership, consistently high standards and notable work ethic were exemplary, and we wish her the best in her next endeavours,” said Lucara chairperson Paul Conibear.
“John's technical expertise and hard work over the past 10 years has been integral to the successful planning, development and execution of mining at the Karowe Diamond Mine, including the recovery of some of the world's most historical stones, and we wish him the best in his next endeavours."
The resignations of Boldt and Armstrong come after that of former chief executive Eira Thomas who was replaced by William Lamb last August.
Lamb had previously served as the chief executive of Lucara from May 2011 until February 2018, when Thomas, who co-founded the company in 2007 with Lukas Lundin and Catherine McLeod-Seltzer, succeeded him.
