Suspended Glencore executive told Radiant World ‘say nothing on e-mail’

A Glencore executive, Peter Hill, instructed associates at Radiant World not to use email communications in early April 2025. Hill, the head of iron ore at the natural resources company, made these remarks during a WhatsApp conversation. Glencore had been a significant supporter of the Radiant World group, but their relationship deteriorated recently, with Glencore alleging fraud against Radiant World and the latter filing a $2 billion lawsuit.

Hill's suspension is pending an investigation into the company's dealings with Radiant World. Screenshots of the messages were shared with Bloomberg News, though not the full context. A Glencore spokesperson declined to comment, while Hill and Radiant World did not respond to requests for comment. The incident has prompted questions about the extent of Glencore's involvement in the Radiant World network.
