Shareholders are advised to read this trading statement in conjunction with the cautionary
announcement released on SENS on 9 November 2015. As a result of the decision taken by
the board of directors during September 2015 to dispose of the Vaalkrantz operation, the
Balgray project and the Koudelager project (all part of Leeuw Mining and Exploration
Proprietary Limited) as well as the Mooiklip Coal project (part of Amalahle Exploration
Proprietary Limited) these segments were classified as held-for-sale and discontinued
operations. The comparative information has therefore been re-stated to show the
discontinued operations separately.
Shareholders are advised that this information has not been reviewed or reported on by the
company’s auditors.
This trading statement is issued in terms of the JSE Limited’s Listings Requirements.
