(“Resource Generation” or the “Company”)
Quarterly Report
for the three months ended 30 September 2016
Resource Generation Limited (the “Company” or “Resgen”) is developing its Boikarabelo
Coal Mine in the Waterberg region of South Africa. This region accounts for 40% of the
country’s remaining identified coal resources. The Company is currently updating the
Probable Coal Reserves for the Boikarabelo Coal Mine (previously disclosed to the market
in December 2010) as a result of completing a new mine plan and execution strategy.
Project Funding
During the quarter, the Company announced (ASX Announcement 8 August 2016) that its BEE
subsidiary, Ledjadja Coal (Pty) Limited, had agreed commercial terms with entities (Financing
Syndicate) including but not limited to:
. FirstRand Bank Limited, acting through its Rand Merchant Bank division (RMB);
. Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa Limited;
. Public Investment Corporation SOC Limited; and
. Noble Resources International Pte Limited (Noble).
The Financing Syndicate is currently performing due diligence in order to seek the requisite
approvals to secure funding to complete the construction of the Boikarabelo Coal Mine.
Resgen has also held discussions with the Export Finance and Insurance Corporation (Efic)
with a view to Efic joining the Financing Syndicate. Efic has been included in discussions of the
terms and has commenced with its due diligence on the project.
The Independent Technical Experts, commissioned by the Financing Syndicate, have
completed their initial reports and have identified no fatal flaws in relation to the newly
adopted execution strategy and mining plan. The new strategy and mining plan takes
advantage of current market conditions by reducing the capital requirement and reducing risk
by outsourcing construction and operations to external contractors.
As recently announced (ASX Announcement 14 October 2016) the company is working toward
reaching financial close no later than March 2017. This translates into “first coal” by Q1 2019.

Resource Generation Limited
Quarterly Report to 30 September 2016
The Request for Proposal referred to in the Report to Shareholders released to the market on
1 June 2016 has now been determined and the Company’s BEE operating subsidiary, Ledjadja
Coal (Pty) Limited, selected Stefanutti Stocks Mining Services (“SSMS”) as the preferred
mining contractor (ASX Announcement 4 October 2016). The Parties have concluded a Heads
of Agreement containing the following salient terms:
. the parties will negotiate on an exclusive basis a detailed Term Sheet to cover mining
and related services over a period of 40 days;
. thereafter the parties will negotiate the terms and conditions of a Mining Contractor
Agreement (“MCA”) within 15 days; and
. formal appointment of SSMS as mining contractor will be confirmed with the parties’
execution of the MCA.
The Heads of Agreement applies until the MCA comes into force. The MCA will, at a minimum,
be subject to the following conditions precedent:
. board approval by both parties of the formal agreement; and
. project funding being procured by the Company.
Capital structure and cash position
The Company’s summarised capital structure at 30 September 2016 is as follows:
Issued fully paid ordinary shares: 581,380,338
Performance rights: 6,250,000
Cash at bank: $8.2 million
Shareholders and potential investors should also review the Company’s Annual Report and
audited Financial Report for the year ending 30 June 2016 to fully appreciate the Company’s
financial position.
Mining tenements
The coal mining rights and exploration tenements held at the end of the quarter were as
follows:
. MPT15/2012 MR (74%)
. PR720/2007 (74%)
. PR678/2007 (74%)
The Company has no interest in farm-in or farm-out agreements.
The Company is in the process of relinquishing PR720/2007, over the properties Lisbon and
Zoetfontein, as these are distant from the Boikarabelo site and contain minimal resources
that have not been included in the JORC resource.
The Mining Right Application for Kubu, adjacent to Boikarabelo, was lodged at the end of
2015. Kubu was previously known as Waterberg No 1 and encompasses the farm Koert Louw
Zyn Pan (PR678/2007).
