ANNOUNCEMENT  8 April 2022

 

RESIGNATION OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

 

MC Mining Limited (MC Mining or the Company) announces that Sam Randazzo will step down as Executive Director, effective close of business on 8 April 2022.  Sam joined MC Mining in November 2019 as a Non-Executive Director and subsequently as interim Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Executive Director from February 2021. Mr Randazzo has agreed to continue in the role of interim CEO while the Board identifies a suitable replacement.

 

In the short time of 12 months since his appointment, Mr Randazzo stabilised the financial position of the Company during a period of acute working capital challenges and social unrest in South Africa. He successfully implemented diligent cash management, negotiated extensions to debt facilities and vendor payments, and concluded the R86 million (US$5.7 million) funding package announced by the Company on 1 February 2022. Additionally, he initiated and directed a bankable feasibility study for the Makhado hard coking coal project (MakhadoProject). Mr Randazzo also originated discussions with several potential key cornerstone funders for the Makhado Project. 

 

Khomotso Mosehla, MC Mining's Chairman, said : "On behalf of the Board I would like to thank Mr Randazzo for his significant contributions as Executive Director. Mr Randazzo agreed to serve in this role during a challenging time and has successfully guided MC Mining during difficult business conditions.  He has been instrumental in setting the foundation for the Company to complete a funding package for the development of the Makhado Project. The Board is very grateful for his commitment."
