Personal achievements

Relevant professional experience

Earlier career; exact dates not established in reviewed profile · issuer reported · medium materiality

Geologist with 25+ years across resources; former MD of Metallum with Chile development/operating projects and prior Brazil project leadership.

Board and Management (Zeff Reeves profile; career/role section)

Litigation and enforcement

Wanaco litigation included a dismissal and a later criminal complaint

2021–2026; later case outcomes unverified · alleged · high materiality

Tesoro reported dismissal of the initial Wanaco civil case in August 2025; its June 2026 half-year report states Wanaco appealed and ancillary proceedings remained. Separately, a September 2025 news report says a criminal complaint named Reeves and Uribe and reproduces a law-firm denial. The underlying complaint, any individual response and final case outcomes were not obtained.

Attribution: Individual involvement documented. News reporting names this person in a complaint; allegations are not findings. The civil dismissal does not resolve the separate criminal complaint.

Relevance: Material governance and legal exposure in the executive’s Chilean project and partner relations; distinguish the first-instance civil win from unresolved appeals/ancillary cases and the separate criminal complaint.

Suitability for the current role

Role fit and evidence limits

Assessment at cutoff 2026-10-31 · analyst inference · medium materiality

The issuer-reported career has potential relevance to the current role; prior outcomes and individual contribution need independent verification.

Attribution: Responsibility not applicable. This is an analytical inference from the cited career profile and the company’s stated stage; it does not claim personal causation of company outcomes.

Relevance: Connects prior experience to the role’s execution and oversight needs.
