Danakali Ltd. said June 14 that CEO Danny Goeman tendered his resignation and will leave the company effective Aug. 3, after accepting a role from a Perth, Australia-based mining company less than a year after his appointment to the role in December 2017.

In addition, nonexecutive chairman Seamus Cornelius has been appointed executive chairman, with immediate effect, and Niels Wage has been named chief commercial officer.

Earlier this month, Danakali's joint venture company, Colluli Mining Share Co., reached a binding take-or-pay off-take deal with EuroChem Trading GmbH for up to 100% of the module-one sulfate of potash production from the Colluli potash project in Eritrea.
