SYDNEY--Rio Tinto PLC (RIO) said Chairman Jan du Plessis plans to step down in the coming year, ending a run of more than eight years at the world's No. 2 mining company, which is facing scrutiny from authorities over its former African operations.
He joins a growing list of departures from the top ranks of global miners as the industry emerges from a multiyear downturn. BHP Billiton Ltd. (BHP) Chairman Jac Nasser and Anglo American PLC (AAL.LN) Chairman John Parker have also signaled their intentions to stand down.
Rio Tinto said it has been looking for a successor to Mr. du Plessis, a South African and British citizen, since last June, after the appointment of Chief Executive Jean-Sebastien Jacques, who is known as J.S.
Mr. du Plessis will become chairman of British telecommunications company BT Group PLC (BT) in November. Rio Tinto said it expects to name his replacement this year.
