Jean-Sébastien Jacques, the company's chief executive and executive director, will depart by"mutual agreement," Rio Tinto said. He'll remain in the role until a replacement is found or by March 31, whichever comes first.
Friday's announcement came after"significant stakeholders have expressed concerns about executive accountability," according to the company. Critics of Rio Tinto say there is abundant evidence that the company was aware of the site's importance before the blasting. For example,,"last week it was revealed that in the days running up to the caves' destruction in May, Rio Tinto hired lawyers in case opponents tried to seek injunctions to stop them."
"Our focus continues to rest heavily on preserving Aboriginal heritage and advocating for wide-ranging changes to ensure a tragedy like this never happens again."
Aussie mining companies have an atrocious record regarding preservation! Number of Aussie companies currently busy destroying large areas of pristine coastline & wetlands in various parts of South Africa! Ignore court orders, leaving devastation in their wake! Fucking Aussies!
'The destruction in the Pilbara region was not illegal under Australian law, according to local media reports.' Why not?! Government is for the public good. Businesses exist to make money. So why do we keep putting (global) heritage + future in the hands of businesses?

Critics say there's evidence that Rio Tinto was aware of the site's importance beforehand. As the BBC reported, 'in the days running up to the caves' destruction in May, Rio Tinto hired lawyers in case opponents tried to seek injunctions to stop them.'
