Health and safety remains a priority and we
continue to make progress, against the background of the goal of
zero harm, with no lost-time injuries (LTIs) recorded during the quarter
(FY2024 Q1: nil LTIs);
·
As a result of the implementation of the
Operation Penduka turnaround plan, run-of-mine
(ROM) coal production at
the Uitkomst steelmaking and thermal coal mine (Uitkomst Colliery or Uitkomst) was 31% higher than the

·
Uitkomst sold 102,266t of coal during the quarter
(FY2023 Q2: 56,817t), comprising 102,266t (FY2023 Q2: 53,842t) of
high-grade domestic sales and coal for the export market with no
lower grade middlings coal sold (FY2023 Q2: 2,975t);
·
Uitkomst had 14,422t (FY2023 Q2: 27,058t) of
high-grade coal at the colliery and no coal at port at the end of
the quarter (FY2023 Q2: 36,764t);
·
Steady progress during the quarter on critical
early works activities at the Makhado steelmaking hard coking coal
project (Makhado Project or
Makhado) as well as
advancing the detailed design of the coal handling and processing
plant (CHPP) and related
infrastructure;

Corporate
· Depressed thermal coal prices continued during the quarter,
with average prices of US$116/t
for the three months compared to US$109/t in Q1
FY2024 and US$221/t in Q2 of FY2023. Premium steelmaking hard
coking coal (HCC) prices,
however, remained elevated, averaging US$335/t in the quarter
(FY2023 Q2: US$280/t);
· The Industrial Development Corporation
of South Africa Limited extended the date for repayment of the R160
million loan (c.US$8.7 million) plus interest thereon, to 30
September 2024. The repayment of the loan,
plus accrued interest, was due for repayment by 30
September 2023;

behalf of shareholders and associates stated to represent in
aggregate 64.3% of the issued capital in the Company (together, the
Consortium). The Bidder's
Statement is still to be lodged by the Consortium; and
· Available cash and facilities of US$3.4 million (FY2024 Q1:
net cash balance of US$5.1 million).
Godfrey Gomwe, Managing
Director & Chief Executive Officer,
commented:
"The Uitkomst Colliery
turnaround plan continues
to yield very pleasing results, and ROM coal production
significantly exceeded the comparative period. Production at the
underground colliery is challenging due to the extended travel time
to the mining areas but the optimisation plan has resulted in increased mining time and higher volumes of coal, with no
lost-time injuries. These results were achieved despite the ongoing
electricity blackouts implemented by Eskom, the state power
utility. The international and domestic thermal coal markets remain
under pricing pressure and the colliery continues to assess
alternative coal products as well as marketing strategies for its
premium product.
"The Company progressed the Makhado
Project during the quarter, including early works to secure the
site and construction of a bridge across the Mutamba river along
with water infrastructure for the CHPP. The managed tender
processes to select the outsourced mining, plant and laboratory
operators progressed and we anticipate making the relevant
appointments in FY2024 Q3. We have also commenced assessing the
potential early production of steelmaking HCC and thermal coal on a
smaller scale with no impact to the existing project plan and will
provide further updates in due course.
"The outsource agent, HOS, notified
the Company during December 2023 that due to production challenges
at Vele, combined with elevated logistics costs and the depressed
API4 coal price, it intends downscaling operations at the colliery
while it progresses a production optimisation strategy."
DETAILED QUARTERLY OPERATIONS
REPORTS
Uitkomst Colliery - Utrecht Coalfields (84%
owned)
No LTIs were recorded during the
quarter (FY2024 Q1: nil LTIs) with the continued focus on leading
indicators delivering safety improvements.
Uitkomst produced 129,272t of ROM
coal during the quarter (FY2023 Q2: 99,336t). This followed the
implementation of a turnaround plan in June 2023 that included a
revised underground operating shift system that included in an
increase in the number of days worked in December 2023, benefitting
coal production. Uitkomst achieved a 31% improvement in ROM coal
production over the prior year comparative period, despite the
impact of daily electricity blackouts.
The poor performance of the state
utility responsible for rail and port logistics also continued to
impact Uitkomst. This has resulted in higher quality South African
coal that is normally exported, being sold in the domestic market.
The challenging market conditions have prompted the reassessment of
the colliery's coal product portfolio, including investigation of
the ability to sell coal to the pulverised steelmaking coal or
thermal coal markets. These initiatives are expected to be
finalised in FY2024 Q3.
Uitkomst sold 102,266t (FY2023 Q2:
53,842t) of coal during the quarter, comprising 96,544t of
high-grade pea and duff-sized coal to domestic as well as customers
exporting coal (FY2023 Q2: 53,842t) and 5,722t (FY2023 Q2: nil t)
of a lower grade blended product, also for export. International
thermal coal prices remained under pressure, with an average price
of US$116/t during the quarter, 48% lower than FY2023 Q2
(US$221/t). The fixed-price contract for the sale of high-ash,
lower value middlings coal expired during the FY2023 Q4 and
Uitkomst sold nil t (FY2023 Q2: 2,975t) during the three months.
The colliery had 14,422t (FY2023 Q2: 27,058t; 36,764t at port) of
high-grade coal on site at the end of the quarter.
The revenue per tonne declined by
43% compared to FY2023 Q2 due to the decline in international coal
prices and the change in sales mix with a significant volume of
coal exported in FY2023 Q2. The colliery's production costs per
saleable tonne benefitted from the higher sales volumes and weaker
exchange rate, declining 44% to US$52/t (FY2023 Q2:
US$93/t).

Makhado Hard Coking Coal Project - Soutpansberg Coalfield (67%
owned)
The development of the
Company's flagship
fully-licensed and shovel-ready
Makhado Project is
expected to position MC Mining as South
Africa's pre-eminent steelmaking HCC producer. Makhado
recorded no LTIs (FY2024 Q1: nil) during the
quarter.
The Makhado Project remains a significant strategic asset for the Company
that has the potential to take the Company's production profile to
in excess of 800,000 tonnes per annum of steelmaking HCC. The
detailed design of the CHPP and related infrastructure for the
Makhado Project in preparation for procurement, continued during
the quarter. The Company also progressed the managed tender
processes to select the mining contractor as well as the operating
and maintenance contractors for the Makhado CHPP. Relevant
appointments are anticipated to be confirmed in FY2024
Q3.
Early works
The critical early works activities
to ensure that the site is secure as well as construction of water
infrastructure for the CHPP are ongoing. The critical Makhado early works undertaken during the quarter
included:
·
Construction of the main access road and the
preparatory earthworks for a bridge across the Mutamba
river;
·
Construction of the foundations for the CHPP bulk
water supply reservoirs;
·
Detailed design, procurement and construction of
the power supply overhead transmission line;
·
Refurbishment of onsite accommodation to house
project construction crews; and
·
Securing the site including significant progress
with erection of fencing.
Makhado Project Funding
The Company continued with the
Makhado Project composite funding initiatives during the quarter,
including progressing the detailed designs for the CHPP and related
infrastructure in preparation for procurement. This information is
required by potential funders and the Company anticipates
that the funding will be concluded in FY2024 H2, with construction
commencing soon thereafter. The various initiatives being
negotiated include, amongst others, funding arrangements through
build, own, operate, transfer (BOOT); senior debt; coal prepayments;
and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contracts.
It is noted that the terms of the
Consortium's proposed Takeover Offer restrict the issue of any new equity.
Consequently, the composite debt/equity funding initiatives can
only progress meaningfully in the event the Takeover Offer expires,
is withdrawn or once the process has been completed.
The Company is also assessing
various scenarios for the Makhado Project to facilitate an
accelerated start of coal production in H2 CY2024 and anticipates
making further announcements in due course.
Vele Aluwani Semi-Soft Coking and Thermal Coal Colliery -
Limpopo (Tuli) Coalfield (100% owned)
Vele recorded no LTIs (FY2024 Q1:
nil) during the quarter.
The mining and processing operations
at the opencast Vele Colliery were outsourced to
HOS and recommissioned in
late December 2022. HOS is responsible for all mining and processing costs while the
Company remains responsible for the colliery's regulatory
compliance, rehabilitation guarantees, relationships with
authorities and communities as well as the supply of electricity
and water. HOS pays Limpopo Coal Company
(Pty) Ltd (LCC), the owner
of Vele, a fee of ZAR200/t of coal sold if the
monthly average API4 price is higher than $120/t. The contractor delivered 48,268t
(FY2023 Q2: nil t) of thermal coal during the quarter.
HOS experienced operational challenges in attaining
the targeted monthly saleable coal production while unit costs have
been adversely impacted by the lack of access to rail capacity to
transport Vele's coal to port. The railing of coal was anticipated
to result in a significant reduction in logistics costs due to the
colliery's location and the high cost of trucking coal to port and
domestic customers. The challenges experienced by HOS were
exacerbated by the decline in the API4 export thermal coal price
during CY2023. The three-month average API4 price for CY2023 Q1 was
US$146/t, reducing to US$115/t in CY2023 Q2, US$109/t in CY2023 Q3,
US$116/t in CY2023 Q4 and currently trades at approximately
US$95/t.
HOS has informed LCC, the owner of
Vele, that due to the operational
challenges at the colliery, it intends downscaling
operations while it progresses development of a production
optimisation strategy at the colliery. As a result, HOS has
exercised the hardship clause in its agreement with LCC and
commenced downscaling operations, which is expected to be completed
during January 2024. HOS's production optimisation strategy
(Operation Shandukani), which borrows from
some of the aspects of the Uitkomst turnaround plan,
will potentially include, amongst others, changes
to the mining methodology, as well as further modifications to the
CHPP and securing access to rail transport at competitive prices.
The evaluation of these measures is expected to take place in
FY2024 H2 and will result in improved profitability at the
colliery.
Greater Soutpansberg Project (GSP) - Soutpansberg Coalfield
(74% owned)
The Greater Soutpansberg Projects
recorded no LTIs (FY2024 Q1: nil) during the quarter and no
reportable activities occurred during the period. The Company has
commenced executing the mining rights for the GSP. The mining
rights for the Mopane and Generaal project areas were executed
during the quarter and the Chapudi mining right is expected to be
completed during January 2024. The studies required for the
environmental and water use licences are expected to commence
during H2 CY2024.
Receipt of Non-Binding Indicative proposals
The Company received a
further notice of
intention to make a Takeover from the Consortium on 2 November
2023. Following this, on 18 December 2023, MC Mining received a
revised Takeover offer to acquire all of the Company's shares that
the Consortium currently does not own for a cash price of A$0.16
per share. The Company has established an Independent Board
Committee which, together with MC Mining's advisors, is considering
the revised offer and will provide a recommendation to shareholders
if and when it is in possession of an offer capable of acceptance.
There is no need for shareholders to take any action with respect
to the current non-binding indicative proposal from the
Consortium.
Appendix 5B - Quarterly Cash Flow Report
The Company's available cash balance
and facilities as at 31 December 2023 was US$3.4 million. The
aggregate amount of payments to related parties and their
associates, as disclosed as item 6.1 of the December 2023 quarter
Appendix 5B, was US$201k, comprising executive and non-executive
director remuneration.
