Fatal incident involving a police officer
Kenmare Resources plc (LSE:KMR, ISE:KMR), which operates the Moma Titanium Minerals Mine (the “Mine” or “Moma”) in northern Mozambique, regrets to report a fatal incident involving a police officer in the early hours of 30 September 2025.
The deceased was assaulted while on guard at the Mine’s water pump station in Pilivili, approximately 16 km from Moma’s Mineral Separation Plant. During this incident he sustained significant head trauma, and he was taken to the Kenmare Clinic within Moma’s camp but unfortunately passed away. The incident appears to have been motivated by theft, with the electrical cable that feeds the pump station stolen.
The Police of the Republic of Mozambique have dispatched an investigation team from Nampula to site and Kenmare is liaising with the Commanding Officer to support the process. The Company is also increasing security provision at Moma to allow security personnel to work in pairs.
Statement from Tom Hickey, Managing Director:
“We are deeply saddened by this tragic incident and extend our sincere condolences to the police officer’s family, friends and colleagues. At Kenmare, the safety and wellbeing of all those involved in our work, including those maintaining law and order, is a fundamental commitment. We are actively supporting the investigation and working closely with the Police of the Republic of Mozambique.”
