ANNOUNCEMENT 30 August 2018
COMPLETION OF THE MOOIPLAATS COLLIERY SALE TRANSACTION
MC Mining Limited (“MC Mining” or the “Company”) announced in October
2017 that it had sold its shares and claims in the Mooiplaats thermal
colliery (“Mooiplaats” or the “Colliery”) for an aggregate purchase
price of R179.9 million. The conditions precedent for the transaction
were satisfied in November 2017 resulting in the Company receiving
the initial sale proceeds of R67.0 million. The timing of the ten
equal quarterly payments to settle the remaining balance of R112.9
million was scheduled to commence during August 2018 but was dependent
on the Department of Mineral Resources (“DMR”) approving the requisite
Section 102 application to, amongst other things, incorporate certain
prospecting rights into the Colliery’s mining right, failing which
the payments would be delayed.
MC Mining is pleased to announce that the DMR has timeously approved
the requisite Section 102 application and the first quarterly payment
of R11.3 million has been received.
David Brown, CEO commented:
“The Section 102 approval was the final requirement to complete the
Mooiplaats sales process that commenced during 2013 and is another
significant step in the clean-up of the Company’s balance sheet. The
Mooiplaats disposal will result in estimated annual cost savings of
R18 million and the quarterly payments will be used to develop MC
Mining’s flagship Makhado hard coking coal project.”
