History – Gold Production in South Africa

Transforming Gold Mining in South Africa | 2016

• In 1873 the first payable gold field was discovered in South Africa’s Eastern Gold-Fields in the Sabie area,

some 300kms from the Witwatersrand (WITS) which, at the time, had no identity.

• The Sabie-Pilgrims Rest gold-field produced the first genuine gold rush in South Africa. It also produced

the first gold coins (The Burger’s sovereign).

• Around this time, the Transvaal Gold Mining and Estates (TGME) company was born which produced

gold for over 100 years.

• Gold was discovered in WITS in 1886 on farm Langlaagte which later became Johannesburg

• WITS became the largest goldfield in the world and by 1925 made up over 50% of Global gold sales

• Four distinct stages of development on WITS:

o 1880 – 1910 : Discovery to formation of Union of South Africa. Rapid growth with interruption during Boer War

o 1911 – 1951 : Slower rate of growth with interruptions or effects from local and global events (Witwatersrand

Rebellion and First and Second World Wars)

o 1952 – 1965 : Rapid growth through introduction of mines on farther reaches of WITS complex as well as improved

deep mining technologies

o 1966 – Present : Decline in production due to depletion of reserves and increased environmental management

costs of acid mine drainage water and high cost on mining

o Some analysts predict that only 33 years of minable underground reserve left in the WITS fields

The rebirth of the “New” Gold Province in the Sabie-Pilgrim’s Rest Gold Fields.

• First 20 years above 10 g/t

• Next 45 years around 8 g/t

• PMR has been produced at mining grades of between 8 and 10 g/t mined hence the high value of the material

History – Stonewall’s TGME (Sabie / Pilgrim’s Rest)

Transforming Gold Mining in South Africa | 2016

• The Transvaal Gold Exploration Company was established in 1883

• Company reconstituted as Transvaal Gold Mining Estates Ltd (TGME) and registered as a company on 16 May

1895

• By 1896, all the small workings consolidated and owned and managed by TGME

• Production initially from extensive alluvial diggings followed by open cast mining of oxidized primary reefs then

into underground mining of oxidized reef and then fresh un-oxidized reef

• 1955 TGME acquires Glynn’s Lydenburg Ltd. (in operation since 1898 and now called Sabie Mining (PTY) Ltd).

Sabie is a subsidiary of Stonewall along with TGME

• Between 1895 and 1970 TGME and Sabie Mines produced 5moz of gold at an average recovered grade of 10.35

g/t

• Large-scale Mining ceased in 1971.

• The primary mineralisation characterised by narrow, flat-reefs generally less than a meter thick with grades

from 1-50 g/t

• Typically ore bodies mined in the past had grades of 20-25 g/t over average reef thickness of 40-45 cm (800-

1125 cmg/t)

• The payability of historic development averaged 30% (Fowler, 1968)

• From 1968 to 2010 TGME tenements portfolio were collectively owned and operated by Rand Mines Properties

Limited, Randgold & Exploration Ltd and Simmer & Jack Mines Ltd.

• In August 2010, Stonewall Mining Pty Ltd purchased 100% of the equity in TGME and Sabie Mines

14

• PMR discovered in 2013 as part of data review during exploration activities

• Discrepancy identified between milled volumes and volumes of “mined out” stopes. Waste rock dumps should have been larger than what they actually were. Question asked where this material had gone to

• Inspections underground revealed that material had been placed into the mined out stopes

• Sampling and analysis indicated that material had grade, particularly in the fine fractions and the PMR project was born

• Extensive sampling completed in Beta and Poniekranz Mines indicated sufficient grade to pursue conversion into production

• Bulk mining trials completed in early 2015 with lessons learnt for further implementation planning

• Project halted in May 2015 due to illegal strike by workers

• Company recapitalised throughout second half of 2015

• Project reviewed in Q3 of 2015 and revised strategy of risk reduction, extended production timeframes and a broader view on PMR mines available for production implemented

• Internal study is complete. Document currently being finalised

• A PMR resource delineation sampling program scheduled for Q3/Q4 2016, funding required

PMR Project – History of PMR Material

Transforming Gold Mining in South Africa | 2016

16

• Gold deposits that outcropped on surface were mined into the underground sections following gold “veins”

• As the mining progressed into underground sections the stopes were low in height and followed a general 5 phase mining approach

PMR Project – History of PMR Material

Transforming Gold Mining in South Africa | 2016

• A stabilised mine area is clean of material, has a retaining “Stonewall” built and is now ready to mine for gold ore

Phase 1 Drill and Blast Ore : The ore is drilled and blasted into void and is ready for high grading through hand sorting

Phase 2 Hand Sorting : Hand sorting removes visible and large sized high grade material leaving a residue

Lighting equipment used for hand sorting was primitive (candle and paraffin headlamps) resulting in an ineffective hand sorting process which also did not cater for effective fines removal. The fines carry the higher values and was left in the stopes

17

PMR Project – History of PMR Material

Transforming Gold Mining in South Africa | 2016

Phase 4 Drill and Blast Waste : The waste is drilled and blasted into the void and is now ready for packing against “Stonewalls”

Phase 5 Clean Up : The waste is packed against “Stonewalls” and support is put in place for the next cycle of mining

Phase 3 Residue Packing : The residue is packed against “Stonewalls”

18

Production for Central Division in proximity of existing Plant and infrustructure:

• Successfully Trialled in 2015

• In house project study completed

• Targeting 40,000 tpm mined, 27,000 tpm milled

• Commissioning of project in Q1 of 2017 and full production by Q2 of 2017

• The PMR project plan is focussed on maximising mechanisation. The following equipment has been selected :

o Conveyors to clear material from the mine( to replace scrapers used in trial mining)

o Scrapers in stopes to remove bulk of material and transfer onto conveyors (no hand lashing of material)

o Transvac machines to remove bulk of fines and deposit onto conveyors (no hand lashing)

o High pressure water for final clean up of fines and pumping of water and fines out of mine

• Conditions at diferent mines dictate selection of the mechanised equipment for the mining process

• The company owns LHD’s that may be used in some of the sections of some of the mines

• Hydraulic reclamation will also be trialed as a mining technique to be tested in mines with space restrictions of certain mines

– Capital cost is low however operational risk is high hence this technique not being proposed as the mining method commencement of the project; however

– Hydraulic reclamation is expected to reduce capital and operating costs and require fewer personnel. The process will be reviewed after trial mining section is completed

• Labour compliment reflects compromise between capital expenditure and operating expenditure

• Investment of additional capital for larger equipment for underground and Pre-Conditioning sections presents opportunity to reduce number of personnel and therefore operating costs. Less shifts required to get same volumes

• Increased capital expenditure on larger equipment should reduce labour requirements and cost.

• Careful,management of labour is intended to mitigate issues that mining companies typically experience with the lower level employees within the workforce

• Remuneration policies have been considered in order to improve productivity e.g. production and performance bonuses

gold occurs in sedimentary host rocks of the

Transvaal Supergroup.

• TGME mineralization hosted in northeast-striking

disconcordant carbonate reefs in Malmani

Dolomites in flat, bedding parallel shears located

mainly on shale partings.

• Gold mineralization at Rietfontein is hosted in

granites within a shear zone.

• Different operations exploit different reefs in the

area, e.g. Frankfort – Bevett’s and Theta Reefs, Beta

– Beta Reef, Duke’s Hill – Rho Reef. Hermansburg,

DG2 and DG1 target surface gold mineralisation.

• Vaalhoek Rock Dump comprises untreated material

from the historical Vaalhoek Mine. Glynn’s

Lydenburg and Elandsdrift tailings dumps comprise

historically mined out and processed tailings from

various regional gold mines.

Competent Person:

Vaalhoek - the two exploration targets that have been determined from the historical resource block

data. The widths of these target areas are based on the historical blocks with a value greater than 300

cmg/t. The average widths are 750 m and 1 120 m for the two target areas. The extent of the

extension uses a maximum of 1 500 m and a minimum of 500 m which is roughly the width of the

historical mining. This results in a potential tonnage of between 3.55 Mt and 10.96 Mt for the two

target areas. The minimum grade has been based on the lowest category for the historical resource

blocks (0 - 100 cmg/t) and the maximum grade is based on the highest category for the historical

resource blocks (+400 cmg/t).

Beta - The conceptual exploration target is based on the lateral extension of the Beta reef to the

south. The area is estimated to be 983 000 m2 (between the yellow and purple lines). The grade is

expected to range between 95 cmg/t and 350 cmg/t (average of two drill holes in the area; from the

current estimation model in that area).

Competent Person:

Rietfontein - These target areas and ounces are

based mainly on historical resource block information

and the areas that have been targeted are those with

historical resource data indicating values greater

than 300 cmg/t or 3.00 g/t over a stoping width of

100 cm. This "cut off" was used as it is a possible

economic cut off for this type of mining at shallow

depths. The ranges or lateral or down dip extent of

these conceptual target areas are not based on semi-

variogram ranges of the mineralised zones but rather

optimistic forecasts of potential pay areas above 300

cmg/t or 3.00 g/t over a stoping width of 100 cm.

Glynn's - The conceptual exploration targets (best

potential at Glynn's), at Compound Hill and

Malieveld, are based on the historical resource block

data that was available. The lateral extent of these

target areas are based on the historical blocks with a

value greater than 300 cmg/t. The lengths for the

three are 2 160 m, 630 m and 525 m respectively. The

down dip extension is based on a minimum of 200 m

which is approximately the extent of the historical

mining and an average maximum of 500 m which is

the optimistic view. The minimum value has been

based on the lowest category for the historical

resource blocks (0 - 100 cmg/t) and the maximum

value is based on the highest category for the

historical resource blocks (+300 cmg/t).

• Although not yet included in the Company’s resource statement, significant sampling, mapping and accesses to multiple mines (more than 1,500 samples) and testing for both grade and fractional analysis has shown the prevalence of the material across the mines

• The estimation of the conceptual exploration target is based on an in situ grade range of between 1.28 g/t and 2.13 g/t albeit that this may vary from one area to the next

Competent Person: PMR Exploration Target Methodology

TGME has undertaken a study on the residual broken rock that historically had been packed in the old mining stopes. The historical mines that were

accessible have been investigated to get an understanding of the potential of the "residue mining" in the historical operations. The investigations

undertaken by the mine personnel at Beta and Theta mine revealed old mining areas packed with broken rock which has been sampled in places.

Grade

• Some 1,500 samples have been taken in such areas. The samples were analysed for gold grade. This sampling was done randomly without

consideration given to obtain a representative sample.

• The grade range of between 1.28 g/t to 2.13 g/t is based upon a 25% variance from the mean of all sampled values combined to achieve a mean

of 1.7 g/t.

Volume

• The area was determined for the individual mines from the historical mining plans and reduced by 7% to account for the open development areas

already existant in the current mining void. All historical mining areas have been assumed to contain material based on the areas investigated

although it was not possible to investigate all the areas due to access restrictions.

• The height of the broken rock has been estimated to range from 80 cm to 120 cm and is based based on stoping widths of 90 cm to 140 cm which

were factorised by a packing of 80% for the stoping width and swelling factor of an additional 5%.

• The density applied to for the residue has been ranged from 1.7 to 2.3 t/m³, and is based upon a variance of 15% from the mean of 2.0 t/m³. It

has been assumed that the broken density of the PMR represents approximately 65% of the possible unmined rock density of the reef (2.7 t/m³).
