ANNOUNCEMENT                                                                    12 February 2021


APPOINTMENT OF INTERIM CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER


MC Mining Limited (“MC Mining” or the “Company") confirms that, further to its announcement of 7
December 2020, the recruitment process for a replacement permanent Chief Executive Officer
(“CEO”) is at an advanced stage and the Company anticipates making a further announcement in due
course. The outgoing acting CEO, Ms Brenda Berlin, will step down on 15 February 2021 and Mr Sam
Randazzo, a non-executive director of MC Mining will serve as interim CEO while the recruitment
process is finalised. Ms Berlin has worked closely with Mr Randazzo, facilitating an orderly handover
and her departure is not expected to impact the finalisation of the funding for the Company’s flagship,
fully permitted Makhado hard coking coal project (“Makhado”) nor the day to day running of the
Group’s operating mine, the Uitkomst Colliery.


Mr Randazzo is chairman of the Company’s Audit & Risk Committee and a member of the Nomination
& Remuneration Committee and is a member of Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand.
He has over 25 years' experience in the mining industry and has completed numerous capital-raisings.
Mr Randazzo has extensive public company exposure as well as operational management experience
across a variety of projects in Africa and the rest of the globe. This includes roles as chief executive
officer, chief financial officer, chairman and directorship positions of ASX-, TSX- and AIM-listed mineral
resource companies.


Commenting today, MC Mining Chairman Bernard Pryor said: “On behalf of the Board I would like to
thank Mr Randazzo for agreeing to serve as interim CEO. Sam brings a wealth of mining, commercial
and financing expertise that will be valuable to the Company as we complete the Makhado Phase 1
funding. The process to recruit a permanent CEO is at an advanced stage and the board anticipates
that this will be completed in the near future.”
