   Update following Cyclone Idai 
 
   Kenmare Resources plc (LSE:KMR, ISE:KMR), which operates the Moma 
Titanium Minerals Mine in north-eastern Mozambique, provides an update 
following Cyclone Idai, which has impacted central Mozambique and other 
parts of southern Africa. 
 
   The Moma Mine has not been impacted materially by Cyclone Idai. The 
on-site team activated the cyclone preparedness plan to ensure that the 
Company's employees and assets were protected, and production continued 
without any significant interruptions. Product loading activities and 
shipping were suspended for seven days, however they resumed on Friday 
15 March 2019, as sea conditions improved. Kenmare continues to receive 
grid power as the power network in northern Mozambique was not affected 
by the cyclone. 
 
   Kenmare is deeply saddened by the news of loss of life and scale of 
damage, and is providing financial support towards the relief effort in 
Mozambique. The Company's employees have also initiated a collection 
scheme to provide clothing and dry goods for the people impacted by the 
cyclone.
