Buffalo Coal confirms identification of positive COVID-19 case following screening and testing at its Coalfields
Operation

Buffalo Coal is a South African based company with mining operations in Dundee, KwaZulu Natal.

Buffalo Coal confirms that one employee working at the processing plant based at its Coalfields site has tested
positive for COVID-19. The employee was quarantined and referred to a medical practitioner after presenting flu-
like symptoms. The Company received confirmation of the test results on July 11, 2020. A total of 7 employees,
deemed to have had direct contact with the individual, were identified and have been requested to self-isolate in
line with national health protocols and will be tested as a precaution.

All areas where the individual may have worked have subsequently been subject to a deep cleaning and sanitisation
process. Some employees have been re-deployed to ensure that the Coalfields processing plant can continue to
operate.

The Department of Health, Department of Mineral Resources and Energy, regional health authorities, National
Institute of Communicable Diseases and labour unions have been informed and engagements in this regard are
