Buffalo Coal is a South African based company, with its head office based in Centurion, Gauteng, and its mining operations based in Dundee, KwaZulu Natal.

Although Buffalo Coal recommenced with limited mining activities today, as detailed in the Company’s announcement titled “Permission granted to recommence mining activities at 30% of operating capacity”, the extension to the National Lockdown will have a considerable negative impact on the Company’s mining operations.
