Back in October, CEO Lennart Evrell said he would stand down half way through 2018.
Staffas has been within Boliden group management since 2011, first holding the CFO position and then, from 2015, being the director of its Mines business area.
Anders Ullberg, chairman of the board, said: "Mikael knows the company very well and has a deep understanding of the strategic focus as well as the importance of continuous improvement of operations to ensure competitiveness and value creation."
