About CoAL:
CoAL is an AIM/ASX/JSE listed coal exploration, development and mining company
operating in South Africa. CoAL`s key projects include the Vele Colliery (coking
and thermal coal), the Greater Soutpansberg Project, including CoAL`s Makhado
Project (coking coal) and the Mooiplaats and Woestalleen Collieries (both
thermal coal).
The Mooiplaats Colliery commenced production in 2008 and is currently ramping up
to produce 2 Mtpa. The Woestalleen Colliery, acquired through the acquisition of
NuCoal Mining (Pty) Limited in January 2010, currently processes approximately
2.5Mtpa of saleable coal for domestic and export markets. The Woestalleen
Complex also incorporates three beneficiation plants with a total processing
capacity of 350,000 run-of-mine (ROM) feed tonnes per month.
CoAL`s Vele Colliery commenced production in Q1 2012. During the initial phase,
the operation is targeting 2.7 Mtpa ROM production to produce 1.0Mtpa of
saleable coking coal. The Makhado Project, CoAL`s flagship project in the
Soutpansberg coalfield, is well into the feasibility stage, with a Definitive
Feasibility Study having been reviewed by the CoAL Board in March 2012. An
application for a New Order Mining Right for the Makhado Project was submitted
in January 2011.
In May 2012, CoAL acquired the Chapudi coal project and several other coal
exploration properties in the Soutpansberg coal basin in South Africa,
subsequently renamed the Greater Soutspansberg Project, from the previous
owners, including Rio Tinto. The Greater Soutpansberg Project is a consolidation
of nine potential coking and thermal coal assets grouped into three proximate
regions, namely Mopane, Makhado and Chapudi. The acquisition of these assets
strengthens Coal of Africa`s position as one of the most substantial holders of
prospecting and mining rights for coking coal in South Africa`s Soutpansberg
coalfield.
