   Fatality at the Moma Mine 
 
   Kenmare Resources plc (LSE:KMR, ISE:KMR) regrets to report a fatality at 
its Moma Titanium Minerals Mine (the "Mine" or "Moma") in northern 
Mozambique on 31 August 2020. Initial investigations found that the 
employee, a front-end loader operator, suffered a fatal crush injury 
during the night shift at Wet Concentrator Plant ("WCP") A's dry mining 
operations. 
 
   Kenmare suspended all mining and processing operations at Moma following 
the incident and an investigation by mine management and the police has 
begun. Kenmare has notified Mozambique's Ministry of Mining, 
Ministério dos Recursos Minerais e Energia (MIREME), and remains in 
close contact with Ministry officials. The Mine has now resumed full 
operations, except for WCP A's dry mining operations, which remain 
suspended to allow further investigations to continue. 
 
   Kenmare's primary focus at this time is to provide support to his family 
and counselling services are being made available to his colleagues. 
 
   Statement from Michael Carvill, Managing Director: 
 
   "We are deeply saddened by the passing of our colleague and we offer our 
sincerest condolences to his family and friends. We are conducting 
further investigations to understand why this tragedy occurred and how 
to prevent it from happening again. The safety and wellbeing of our team 
are our highest priorities and we have extensive protocols in place 
regarding the safe operation of heavy mobile equipment. During 
yesterday's cessation of operations our team received additional 
training to reinforce mobile equipment standard operating procedures and 
our commitment to safety."
