RNS Number : 3838O MC Mining Limited 31 January 2023
ANNOUNCEMENT
31 January 2023
ACTIVITIES REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022
FOR
MC Mining Limited ("MC Mining" or the "Company")
and its subsidiary companies
HIGHLIGHTS
Operations
· Health and safety remains a priority and we continue to make progress
despite two lost-time injuries (LTIs) recorded during the quarter (FY2023 Q1:
one LTI);
· Run-of-mine (ROM) coal production at the Uitkomst metallurgical and
thermal coal mine (Uitkomst Colliery or Uitkomst) was 7% lower than the
December 2021 quarter at 99,336 tonnes (t) (FY2022 Q2: 107,188t). Production
was adversely affected by geological conditions as well as national
electricity blackouts interrupting underground mining operations;
· The Company recorded 56,817t of coal sales during the quarter (FY2022
Q2: 49,063t), comprising 13,095t (FY2022 Q2: 43,280t) of high-grade domestic
coal sales, 2,975t (FY2022 Q2: 5,783t) of lower grade middlings coal and coal
exports of 40,747t (FY2022 Q2: nil t).
· Uitkomst had 27,058t (FY2022 Q2: 10,803t) of high-grade coal at the
colliery and a strong export pipeline of 36,764t of stock (FY2022 Q2: nil t)
at port at the end of the quarter;
· Coal Sales & Marketing Agreement (Marketing Agreement) with
Overlooked (Proprietary) Limited (Overlooked) extended to 30 June 2023;
· Buy-back of a 14% interest in Uitkomst held by a minority black
economic empowerment partner, increasing MC Mining's interest in the colliery
to 84% and ensuring the colliery satisfies the 'once empowered, always
empowered' principle;
· Detailed planning and fund-raising initiatives for the Makhado hard
coking coal project (Makhado Project or Makhado) continued during the quarter;
and
· Conclusion of a Contract Mining Agreement (the Mining Agreement) with
Hlalethembeni Outsourcing Services (Pty) Ltd (HOS) to recommission, upgrade
and operate the Company's Vele Aluwani Colliery (Vele or the Vele Colliery).
This resulted in the recommissioning of the Vele Colliery coal processing
plant (CPP) during the quarter.
Corporate
o Completion of a A$40 million fully underwritten renounceable rights issue
(Rights Issue) through the issue of 200,026,719 new ordinary shares;
o The ZAR60 million (US$3.5 million) owing to Dendocept (Pty) Ltd
(Dendocept) in terms of the previously announced Standby Loan Facility, was
settled as part of the Rights Issue;
o Repayment of the remaining ZAR10 million (US$0.2 million) loan owing to
the Senosi Group Investment Holdings (Proprietary) Limited;
o The Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa Limited (IDC)
agreed to extend the repayment date for the existing ZAR160 million (US$9.4
million) loan, plus accrued interest, to 30 June 2023; and
o Available cash and facilities at quarter-end of US$20.2 million (US$2.2
million at 30 September 2022) and restricted cash of US$0.03 million.
Godfrey Gomwe, Managing Director & Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"The Company made pleasing progress during the December 2022 quarter. The most
notable achievements being the completion of the A$40 million Rights Issue,
the recommencement of operations at the Vele Colliery and the extension of the
Marketing Agreement with Overlooked.
The completion of the Rights Issue confirmed the continued robust support of
our anchor shareholders and provided an opportunity for new equity investors
to participate in the Company's maturing growth strategy. This was completed
despite the current volatile market and uncertain economic environment. The
additional capital has transformed the Company's balance sheet and is a
further key milestone towards the complete financing of the flagship Makhado
Project and the positioning of MC Mining as the only large scale producer of
hard coking coal in South Africa.
The Makhado CPP optimisation study was completed during the period. This will
potentially increase the Makhado CPP annual ROM feed capacity from 3 million
tonnes per annum to 4 million tonnes per annum and will be used in the
detailed CPP and infrastructure design work as well as revised mine plans.
These are expected to be completed during Q1 CY2023. Following this, the
Company's directors approved expenditure of ZAR71.3 million (US$4.1 million)
on early works at Makhado and this is expected to commence in early CY2023.
The funding initiatives for Makhado continued during the period and these
initiatives are expected to be finalised in first half of CY2023.
The Vele Colliery had been on care and maintenance for almost ten years and
during this time the Company assessed various strategies to utilise the asset.
During December 2022, the Company signed the Mining Agreement with HOS and
first coal sales from Vele are expected in Q1 CY2023. The cash generated will
be used for Group general working capital requirements and can also
potentially contribute funding for the construction of Makhado. The
recommissioning will create approximately 245 permanent job positions and the
resumption of production at Vele will also alleviate any 'use it or lose it'
risk associated with unutilised mining assets in South Africa."
DETAILED QUARTERLY OPERATIONS REPORTS
Uitkomst Colliery - Utrecht Coalfields (84% owned)
Two LTIs were recorded during the quarter (FY2023 Q1: one LTI).
The Uitkomst Colliery generated 99,336t of ROM coal during the quarter (FY2022
Q2: 107,188t) with production adversely affected by challenging geological
conditions and frequent electricity blackouts implemented by Eskom, the state
power utility. Uitkomst does have back-up diesel generators with limited
capacity and are only sufficient for underground mining operations. The switch
from Eskom to internally generated power does result in operational delays
within the mining activities while the increased use of generators and high
cost of diesel has had a detrimental effect on mining costs.
Uitkomst sold 53,842t (FY2022 Q2: 43,280t) of high-grade pea and duff-sized
coal during the three months, comprising 40,747t exported from Durban (FY2022
Q2: nil t) and 13,095t (FY2022 Q2: 43,280t) to domestic customers. The export
coal sales volumes included most of the 42,115t at port at the start of the
December 2022 period for which Uitkomst early received export revenue of
US$4.0 million in Q1 FY2023 compared to early export receipts of US$1.5
million in Q2 FY2023. Uitkomst also sold 2,975t (FY2022 Q2: 5,783t) of high
ash, lower value middlings coal under fixed price arrangements. The colliery
had 36,764t (FY2022 Q2: nil t) at port and 27,058t (FY2022 Q2: 10,803t) on
site at the end of the quarter with the almost all of the coal at port sold
during January 2023.
During the quarter, Uitkomst realized an average export sales price of
US$220/t. However, the net revenue per tonne was adversely affected by high
logistics, port, demurrage and export related charges of approximately US$70/t
as well as lower priced, ZAR denominated domestic sales. This yielded net
revenue per tonne of US$129/t (FY2022 Q2: 111/t).
The production costs per saleable tonne were 5% lower than the comparative
period (FY2023 Q2: US$93/t vs. FY2022 Q2: US$98/t) with the higher sales
volumes largely offsetting the 14% weakening of the rand. The ZAR denominated
production cost per saleable tonne have been adversely affected by
inflationary pressures as well as higher energy costs when the underground
mining area uses diesel during blackout periods. Processing costs increased
due to increased overtime incurred at the Uitkomst CPP.

The initial six-month Marketing Agreement with Overlooked was due to expire on
31 December 2022 and was extended to 30 June 2023 during the quarter. The key
terms of the Marketing Agreement remain, allowing Uitkomst the opportunity to
sell the majority of its coal at prices linked to international coal indexes
rather than at floating and fixed price domestic prices.
MC Mining also increased its interest in the Uitkomst Colliery during the
period when it bought back the 14% belonging to a black industrialist
shareholder, for US$511k. This transaction ensures that Uitkomst qualifies
under the 'once empowered, always empowered' principle associated with mining
rights.
Makhado Hard Coking Coal Project - Soutpansberg Coalfield (67% owned)
The development of the Company's flagship Makhado Project is expected to
deliver positive returns for shareholders and position MC Mining as South
Africa's pre-eminent hard coking coal (HCC) producer.
The Company appointed Erudite (Pty) Ltd (Erudite) to complete the detailed
planning for a full process plant design for the Makhado CPP. Erudite expects
to complete the panning during Q1 CY2023 and this plan is also required by
potential additional funders to complete their assessments. The Company has
also employed independent consultants to review the Makhado mine plan and this
forms part of the detailed execution plan.
MC Mining's directors approved the commencement of early works at Makhado and
the Company allocated ZAR71.3 million (US$4.1 million) to this. The early
works are planned to commence in February 2023 and include amongst others, a
bridge and internal roads, initial bulk earthworks, site security and
communication infrastructure.
Makhado Project Funding
The IDC is a 6.7% shareholder in MC Mining subsidiary, Baobab Mining &
Exploration (Pty) Ltd, the owner of the Makhado Project and the bank continues
to provide financial support for the development of the Makhado Project. MC
Mining previously utilised the existing IDC loan facility to develop the
project and during the quarter, the IDC extended the date for repayment of the
ZAR160 million loan (US$9.4 million) plus interest thereon, as well as the
terminal draw down date of the additional ZAR245 million (US$14.4 million)
loan facility, to 30 June 2023. Draw down of the additional ZAR245 million
(US$14.4 million) loan facility remains subject to the IDC confirming its due
diligence and credit approval.
The Company continued the Makhado Project composite funding initiatives during
the quarter and anticipates that the balance of the funding will be concluded
in the first half of CY2023. The various initiatives underway include amongst
others, build, own, operate, transfer (BOOT) funding arrangements, additional
senior debt as well as debt/equity instruments and coal prepayments.
Vele Aluwani Semi-Soft Coking and Thermal Coal Colliery - Limpopo (Tuli)
Coalfield (100% owned)
Vele recorded no LTIs (FY2023 Q1: nil) during the quarter.
The Vele Colliery had been on care and maintenance for almost ten years and
during this period the Company assessed various strategies to utilise the
asset. This confirmed the significant capital and technical investment
required to optimise production at the colliery. With the increase in coal
prices, the outsourcing of operations at Vele was identified as the optimal
strategy as this would secure the necessary investment from a third party to
modify the CPP and remove a significant portion of the ongoing costs
associated with the colliery. This resulted in the conclusion of the Mining
Agreement with HOS during the quarter.
In terms of the Mining Agreement, HOS will undertake mining in terms of an
agreed mine plan on an exclusive basis until 22 December 2027. HOS is
targeting monthly production of 60,000t of saleable thermal coal from Vele and
is responsible for all mining and processing costs. 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 recommissioned the Vele CPP in late December 2022 and first coal sales are
expected in Q1 CY2023 with ramp-up to full production during Q2 CY2023. The
recommissioning adds a further cash generating unit to MC Mining's portfolio
with limited financial or human capital contributions, potentially contributes
funding for Makhado, creates approximately 245 permanent job positions and
also alleviates any 'use it or lose it' risk associated with unutilised mining
assets in South Africa.
Greater Soutpansberg Project (GSP) - Soutpansberg Coalfield (74% owned)
The Greater Soutpansberg Projects recorded no LTIs (FY2023 Q1: nil) during the
quarter and no reportable activities occurred during the period.
Fully Underwritten Rights Issue
During the quarter, the Company completed the Rights Issue to investors in
South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, raising A$40 million (before costs).
The net proceeds are being used as follows:
· to meet the Company's equity contribution required for the IDC's
proposed debt funding, in relation the development of Makhado;
· fund the continued development of the Makhado Project;
· repayment of the ZAR60 million (approximately US$3.5 million) of the
Dendocept Standby Loan Facility; and
· for general working capital purposes.
Appendix 5B - Quarterly Cash Flow Report
The Company's cash balance as at 31 December 2022 was US$20.2 million with
available facilities of US$0.3 million. The aggregate amount of payments to
related parties and their associates, as disclosed as item 6.1 of the December
2022 quarter Appendix 5B was US$59k, comprising executive and non-executive
director remuneration.
