DARWIN - The chief executive of Rio Tinto, the world's second-largest mining company, will step down after a shareholder revolt over the company's willful destruction of prehistoric rock shelters sacred to two Australian Indigenous groups.

In addition to the company's chief executive, Jean-Sébastien Jacques, two other top executives, Chris Salisbury and Simone Niven, will leave the company by"mutual agreement," the company said in a statement released Friday. All three executives are expected to forgo their bonuses. Salisbury and Niven will leave Dec. 31. The resignations follow months of pressure from investors, politicians, environmental groups and Indigenous activists over the destruction of the Juukan Gorge sites.
