ANNOUNCEMENT

CONDITION SATISFIED FOR THE ISSUE OF NEW EQUITY

Further to the announcement published on 21 July 2020, MC Mining Limited ("MC Mining" or the "Company") is pleased to confirm South Africa Reserve Bank approval for the issue of new equity ("New Equity") for a collective R15.0 million ($0.9 million*). This satisfies the condition required for the issue of the New Equity comprising 13,331,433 new ordinary shares in the Company. The New Equity will be issued at an agreed price of 105.56 SA cents/ 6.27 pence (United Kingdom).

A commitment for the issue of the New Equity was a condition in the R40 million ($2.4 million) restructured loan agreement (the "Agreement") with the Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa Limited ("IDC") to advance the Makhado hard coking coal project ("Makhado Project") and for general working capital. In terms of the Agreement, the IDC will receive an estimated 1.1 million warrants, equating to 0.8% of MC Mining's issued shares, and its direct participation in the Makhado Project will increase from 5% to 6.7%.

Application will be shortly made for the admission of the 13,331,433 new ordinary shares to trading on AIM, the ASX and the JSE and an announcement will be made in due course. Following admission of the New Equity, the Company will have 154,419,555 ordinary shares in issue, such figure can be used as the denominator for the calculations by which a shareholder will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company, under the ASX Listing Rules or the DTRs.
