Diederichs, an engineer with more than two decades of African project development and operational experience at companies including Predictive Discovery, OreCorp and Equinox Minerals, is expected to strengthen Wia’s capability as it accelerates the Kokoseb Gold Project in Namibia toward a Definitive Feasibility Study targeted for completion in the second half of 2026 and transitions from pure exploration to project development, a step that could be pivotal in transforming Kokoseb into a development‑ready gold asset and advancing value creation for stakeholders.
