What Happened
Ramaco Resources, Inc.

The filing states Senator Manchin’s resignation was not due to any disagreement with the company on operations, policies, or practices.

Key Details

• Senator Joseph Manchin III resigned effective September 4, 2026.
• At the time of resignation he served on the Environmental, Health & Safety Committee and the Government Relations Committee, and he was Chair of the Technology Committee.

Why It Matters
A board member resignation can affect corporate governance and committee leadership—Ramaco will need to address the vacated committee roles (including Technology Committee chair). For investors, this is a governance update rather than a financial disclosure: there are no reported disagreements or operational issues tied to the resignation. Watch for subsequent filings or press releases naming any replacement directors or committee reassignments.
