Correction - Quarterly update PETMIN LIMITED Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa Registration Number 1972/001062/06 Share Code JSE: PET ISIN: ZAE000076014 ("Petmin" or "the Company") CORRECTION - QUARTERLY UPDATE Shareholders are advised that the quarterly update published on SENS on 6 December 2016 had an error with regards to costs per tonne, in that it referred to costs per tonne being in line with FY15 and should have read FY16. This has been corrected and for completeness the full corrected quarterly update is published below. SOMKHELE ANTHRACITE MINE: SOLID PERFORMANCE CONTINUES Tendele Coal Mining, the operator of Petmin’s Somkhele anthracite mine in KwaZulu-Natal, continues to focus on safety and productivity improvements to reduce costs and maximize production and sales in difficult trading conditions. During the quarter to end-September 2016, Somkhele increased anthracite sales by 2% and maintained production costs per tonne in line with FY16. Quarter ended Quarter ended Year ended Description % Change September 2016 September 2015 June 2016 Anthracite tonnes produced 342 536 352 179 (3%) 1 236 433 Anthracite tonnes sold 363 982 355 201 2% 1 122 162 Anthracite yield 44.51% 44.56% 0% 44.01% Energy coal tonnes produced 86 474 86 032 1% 349 405 Energy coal tonnes sold 55 920 85 190 (34%) 441 579 Energy coal yield 26.89% 26.45% 2% 29.53% Production of metallurgical anthracite for the quarter decreased by 3% to 342 536 tonnes (2015: 352 179 tonnes). Sales volumes increased by 2% to 363 982 tonnes (2015: 355 201 tonnes) as demand for Somkhele anthracite products remains firm. Energy coal production increased by 1% to 86 474 tonnes for the quarter (2015: 86 032 tonnes). Although sales for this product in the quarter were down, this was a timing issue related to planned export vessels and is not reflective of the continued strong demand for this product. 55 920 tonnes of energy coal were sold in the three-month period (2015: 85 190 tonnes). While sales volumes have improved in 2016, average export prices (in Rand terms) for the three months ended 30 September 2016 were some 18% lower than the average prices achieved in the year ended 30 June 2016. Average inland prices remained unchanged from the average prices achieved in the year ended 30 June 2016. At-mine-gate energy coal sales prices have increased by 1% from those achieved in the year ended 30 June 2016. Export prices have been extremely volatile since 30 June 2016. We expect export prices in Rands to improve in the period to 30 June 2017, although the volatility of the markets makes it difficult to accurately forecast the Rand prices in the period ahead. Sales commitments have been received for 1.16 million tonnes of an estimated 1.5 million tonnes of anthracite sales expected for the year ending 30 June 2017. The remaining tonnes are under offer and confirmation of these sales is expected. Sales commitments have been received for 400 000 tonnes of an estimated 450 000 thousand tonnes of energy coal sales expected for the year ending 30 June 2017.The balance of these tonnes are under offer and negotiations are expected to be concluded for all remaining tonnes. DROUGHT AND WATER SHORTAGE The recent rains in KwaZulu-Natal has provided much needed relief and Somkhele’s water storage dams are full and we have sufficient process water for the foreseeable future. NORTH ATLANTIC IRON CORPORATION (NAIC) PROJECT UPDATE During the quarter ended 30 September 2016, the Petmin board approved an additional $4 million investment into NAIC, subject to various conditions. At the time of this update, the conditions have not been met and the additional investment has not been made.
