September 21, 2023: CRU, the research consultancy, has appointed Frank Nikolic as North America VP for base and battery metals, the company said on September 14.
In this newly created post, Nikolic (pictured) will have a particular focus on the energy transition and how firms should make the most of opportunities, CRU said.
Before joining the data and intelligence firm Nikolic was head of commercial operations for Vale.
CRU head of base metals Simon Morris said Nikolic was joining at a critical time for the sector, as decarbonization, economic volatility and geopolitical tensions redefine the future for mined commodities.
