available for incorporation into the base case financial model for the Project, the Board
will be in a position to consider the proposal for approval. At the time of any Board
approval the terms will be binding on all parties and only subject to certain conditions
precedent that are specified by the proposed Lending Syndicate. The Company will then
be in a position to disclose the key terms of the mine funding package together with the
targeted timeline to Financial Close.
The rail link negotiations for a funding package of R750m (approx. A$75m at current
exchange rates) are at an advanced stage. The funding is required to construct the
44km rail infrastructure linking the mine to the Transnet main line. Finalisation of a
binding term sheet for the rail link funding is expected to be a condition precedent
attached to the proposed mine construction funding.
In the lead up to commissioning of the Mine the Company will also need to raise working
capital currently estimated as being R500m (approx. A$50m at current exchange rates).
On 17 May 2019, the Company advised the market that it was finalising the extension
of a further US$2.5m in working capital funding under a Facility Agreement with Noble
Resources International Pte Ltd (Noble). This further extension of funding was to be
made available for the period through to 30 June 2019. At the date of this release the
Company has drawn down US$1.0m of the further US$2.5m extension. The Company
is in the process of agreeing with Noble to extend the availability period for the undrawn
amount of up to US$1.5m.
The Company will keep the market informed regarding further progress on project
funding in accordance with its continuous disclosure obligations.
