DIRECTOR RESIGNATION
Thabo Mosololi, a non-executive director of MC Mining Limited ("MC Mining" or "the Company"), has resigned as a director of the Company to focus on his executive role in the broader hospitality sector. His resignation was effective from 31 December 2019. Mr Mosololi has been a member of MC Mining's board of directors since 2014 and provided valuable input as Chairman of the Company's Audit & Risk Committee.
Commenting today David Brown, CEO, said: "On behalf of the Board and shareholders, I would like to thank Thabo for his contribution to MC Mining as we transformed to a mining company while also developing our flagship Makhado hard coking coal project. Consistent with our November and December 2019 announcements, we continue to progress the composite debt/equity funding initiatives for Phase 1 of Makhado. This includes due diligence investigations by potential debt providers and investors at both group and project level and we anticipate completion of the funding processes during H1 CY2020, with construction commencing soon thereafter."
