Mining Method Mining Method • Low Profile Mechanised bord & pillar: • 6 -10m Bords, up to 12 Bords per production section • Pillar dimensions vary with depth • Extraction (incl. Geological loss) 64 - 83% • Shift Cycle - Conops (5-5-5) Source of Ore - Current • Main Decline 195 000 tpm ROM – 12 stoping Fleets, 2 Cpaital fleets • North Decline 102 000 tpm ROM – 6 stoping Fleets and one Capital Fleet.
Design Parameters and Bord Widths Pillar Design • In- stope pillars designed with a FOS of at least 1.6 • Based on Hedley and Grant design formula • Surface contours taken into consideration • Pillar size increases with depth • Pillar designs revised on a yearly basis and/or when required • Support Design and COP independently audited annually Bord Widths • Bord sizes change according to the HW beam competence. • Bord widths are on average 10 m, but can vary between 6 – 10 m dependent on geotechnical conditions • Splits are on average 8m wide but can vary between 6 -10 m depending on geotechnical conditions
Concentrator Plant • MF2 Plant (Current Design capacity 240 Kt/month) • Currently average 280 Kt/Month • Silo Capacity 13 000 tons (1.5 days milling) • Tailings Facility (98.5% of product milled) • Dry Concentrate transported by road to IRS • Strategic stockpile of 240 kt created to offset potential community/labour and load shedding • Recovery: 86.5%

13 VOHE Milestone Reporting
14 2024 Milestones E LIMINATION OF O CCUPATIONAL L UNG D ISEASES : By December 2024, 95% of all exposure measurement results will be below the milestone level for Respirable crystalline silica of 0.05 mg/m 3 (these results are individual readings and not the average results). By December 2024, 95% of all exposure measurement results will be below the milestone level for platinum dust Respirable particulate of 1.5 mg/m 3 (<5% crystalline silica) (these results are individual readings and not the average results). Using present diagnostic techniques, no new cases of silicosis, pneumoconiosis, coal worker’s pneumoconiosis will occur amongst previously unexposed individuals. E LIMINATION OF N OISE I NDUCED H EARING L OSS Quieting of Equipment: By December 2024, the total operational or process noise emitted by any equipment must not exceed a milestone sound pressure level of 107 dB(A). Currently NO noise source exceeds the milestone limit. All the equipment operated at all Plant areas are below 107 dB (A). For Individuals: By December 2016, no employee’s Standard Threshold Shift (STS) will exceed 25 dB from the baseline when averaged at 2000, 3000 and 4000 Hz in one or both ears.
