OVERVIEW OF BARBERTON GOLD MINES

OVERVIEW OF BARBERTON MINES ( BML ) Mining started in 1886 at Sheba Mines oldest operating mine Currently BML have three operations i.e. Sheba, New Consort and Fairview BML treat about 24 000 ore tons per month at about 11g/t BML also have a Tailings Retreatment Plant (90,000t/m) Combined gold production per month is 290kg Each operation have a treatment plant with a centralised BIOX plant BML is the biggest employer in the Barberton area 5

CURRENT MINING METHODS

CURRENT MINING METHODS Mechanised Mining Cut and fill (90%) Breast & Updip Open Stoping Conventional Mining (10%) Shrinkage Mining (0%) 21

CURRENT MINING METHOD Mechanised Mining Cut and fill (90%) Waste from your infrastructure development is hauled back into stope for fill (Ramp system and Access cross cut which is then fan lifted) 55% of reef tons removed equates to waste tonnage requirement for waste fill (Development meters required) Mining sequence o Blasting stope face and support o Loading reef o Waste filling o Compacting o Cement capping 22

FALL OF GROUND MEASURES Mechanised Mining Cut and fill (90%) Because the back areas are filled with waste the overall stability of the stopes are good At Fairview we are mining at about 1800m below surface and have not seen any seismic related activities Only the current stope face area is exposed reducing FOG risk No back areas. This also helps with ventilation conditions and reduces fire risk Both sidewalls are supported with sheppard crook roofbolts In stopes wider than 4m, the stope face (hanging wall) are supported with the 40t, 15m long pre-stressed anchors 33

MRC ORE BODY AND EXPLORATION POTENTIAL

BARBERTON MINES - FAIRVIEW The MRC is the second richest orebody in the world Current life of orebody is 26 years, which greatly exceeds the BML life of mine There is a realistic potential for MRC to continue at depth 35

BARBERTON MINES Exploration Potential at BML Unique geology Amira Project Study by University of Western Australia Current UJ study 40

BARBERTON MINES Metamorphic devolatilisation Transition from greenschist to amphibolite facies triggers process of devolatilisation H 2 O-CO 2 -H 2 S fluids are released from mineral crystal structures and these fluids can transport gold to favourable depositional sites Adequate amounts of gold can be dissolve if enough cubic kilometres of appropriate rocks undergo metamorphism Non-leachable site Leachable site 41

BARBERTON MINES Metamorphic devolatilisation At higher pressure (and T) gold solubility is higher When pressure is released, H 2 S (the ligand that makes gold soluble) is driven off, resulting in gold precipitation Pressure shadows, which can form during faulting and folding, create spaces effectively sucking the fluid into these spaces and releasing pressure, resulting in gold precipitation 42
