Wesizwe Platinum’s Bakubung Platinum Mine development moving full steam ahead

Wesizwe Platinum’s flagship Bakubung Platinum Mine located on the Western Bushveld is progressing according to schedule. The mine will have a projected lifespan of 35 years producing up to 350koz per year, with production ramp-up scheduled for 2018. Wesizwe’s Chinese strategic equity partner ensures that the project is funded. Wesizwe also owns a stake in the PTM-managed Maseve project, adjacent to the Bakubung Platinum Mine. The company is on track to become a significant multi-commodity company focusing on strategic metals with sound derived demand fundamentals. Wesizwe’s strategic objectives remain focused on ensuring that the Bakubung Platinum Mine is delivered within budget and on schedule. To assist in this

process, a new Mine General Manager and Resident Engineer have recently been appointed. At the same time, Wesizwe will explore synergistic consolidation opportunities with industry peers in the vicinity of the Bakubung Platinum Mine project. Wesizwe is looking to achieve definitive growth through acquisitions within the platinum sector in South Africa and also in base metals across Southern Africa. The company also looks to achieve a 26% BEE ownership by 2014 from the current 0.16% HDSA holding.

In terms of human resources, the Bakubung Platinum Mine project currently has 53 permanent employees and 921 contract workers, but at full production, the mine will employ 3200 employees directly. Plans to increase the core Wesizwe team in support of the mine development programme are at an advanced stage.

The Bakubung Platinum Mine project aims to capitalise upon a perfectly located quality resource, as the Western Limb provides 67% of the world’s platinum. Its flat lying, thick reef makes it easier and more efficient to mine and is one of the best-to-be-mined PGM ore bodies in South Africa. It also has greater amenability to mechanisation, fewer mining levels and as a result a lower cost mining regime. What makes this key asset different is that it is shallow in relation to other producers with a mean mining depth of 850mbc and high mining extraction of 74%. The thick reef widths of 1.4m to 1.7m mean higher operating efficiency and yields, and the favourable prill split, with good Pt yield from the Merensky reef, means an improved basket value. In addition, head grades are in line with normal averages in the region.

In terms of funding for the project, the China Development Bank (CDB) has approved the US$ 650m project funding and the finalisation of the project funding documents is in progress. The CDB, as part of the US$ 650m project funding, has also approved two bridging loans of US$ 100m each, of which one US$ 100m drawdown took place in December last year, and the second in June this year. These short-term loans will be refunded in part by the US$ 650m long-term loan. The 15 years loan facility has an applicable interest rate of six month LIBOR plus 3.5% repayments only commencing seven years after the first drawdown.

Wesizwe Platinum is currently exploring possible synergistic opportunities including infrastructure/bulk services: water and power supply, and is currently in collective discussions with Eskom and Magalies Water to this end. In addition, investigations are underway locally to identify possible Concentrator Plant Synergies. Other opportunities could include shared concepts for employee housing programmes, joint training and skills development in the area, community upliftment and socio-economic development projects, and the establishment of a mine owners’ forum for the three neighbouring mines to explore further synergies and collaborations.

On Mandela Day this year, Wesizwe Platinum staff at the regional office in Ledig got down to some serious dirty work as part of their 67 minute contribution. The Bakubung Clinic was in need of a revamp to make it a more pleasant place for the local community to go for their healthcare and wellbeing needs. The Wesizwe regional office teamed up with Top-Turf, a local gardening and landscaping company to help re-landscape the front garden of the clinic, planting trees, shrubs and ground cover plants, and donating the services of their specialist groundsmen and women to help with the garden tidy-up. Other Wesizwe office team members got to work on cleaning up the actual clinic building, rolling up their sleeves and scrubbing floors, cleaning windows, and generally making the clinic environment more pleasant for patients. Learners from the nearby Ratheo Primary School joined in, filling buckets with water and cleaning materials, and cleaning the many windows in the clinic building. Others helped by picking up litter from around the clinic yard and raking leaves in the grounds, under the guidance of their teachers , Mrs Mathebu la and Mrs Motsaalore. Members of the general public, seeing the efforts of the Wesizwe team and the young learners, also took time to help out. The remainder of the Wesizwe crew went into a neighbouring village to donate their 67 minutes to cleaning water tanks in order to ensure that clean water was available to all local residents in the community. They used

pressure hoses and disinfectant to ensure the tanks were clean, then repaired leaking joints and taps, as well as sealing inlets to the tanks to avoid contamination. After a long hard day, all the Wesizwe crews met up at the Bakubung Clinic to celebrate a good dayʼs work done for the community.

Closer to home, the Wesizwe Platinum head office staff at the companyʼs Melrose Arch offices gave their 67 minutes on Mandela Day to the Johannesburg General Hospital Childrenʼs Ward, raising money to buy gifts for the sick children undergoing treatment. Three members of the Wesizwe team, Lireko Ncube, Dimpho Maruping and Mpho Matshidiso hand-delivered the gifts to the children, spending time talking and playing with them on the wards and trying to make their Mandela Day special, despite the treatment they were undergoing.
