                             REPORT FOR THE QUARTER ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2017

                                      EXCELLENT RESULTS FROM UITKOMST

MC Mining Limited (“MCM” or the “Company”) which operates in South Africa, together with its subsidiaries,
hereby provides its update for the quarter ended 31 December 2017 (the “Quarter”). All figures are
denominated in United States dollars unless otherwise stated. A copy of this report is available on the Company's
website, www.mcmining.co.za.


Salient operational features
-     A positive safety performance resulted in no lost-time injuries (“LTIs”) during the Quarter (FY2018 Q1: nil);

-     The Uitkomst metallurgical and thermal coal colliery (“Uitkomst Colliery” or “Uitkomst”) produced 140,501
      tonnes (“t”) of run of mine (“ROM”) coal during the period, up 12% on the prior period;

-     The reduced availability of slurry and constrained supply from a third party opencast mine supplier due to
      adverse weather conditions, resulted in a 14% decline in sales of metallurgical, high quality and blended
      thermal coal from Uitkomst, with total sales volumes reducing from 165,432t in the September 2017
      quarter to 142,843t. This was partially offset by the 17% increase in sales of coal derived from Uitkomst
      ROM, reflecting the incredibly strong demand for the colliery’s products;

-     Delivery on MCM’s balance sheet restructuring strategy with the sale of the Mooiplaats thermal coal colliery
      (“Mooiplaats Colliery” or “Mooiplaats”) for R179.9 million ($13.2 million) (the “Purchase Price”);

-     Commencement of the Competent Persons Report (“CPR”) on the Makhado hard coking and thermal coal
      project (“Makhado Project” or “Makhado”) by independent expert Minxcon (Proprietary) Limited
      (“Minxcon”). The results of the CPR are expected by early Q3 2018; and

-     Vele coking and thermal coal colliery (“Vele Colliery”) remained on care and maintenance.

Corporate and financial features
- Change of the Company’s name to MC Mining Limited and a 20 for one share consolidation (“the
    Consolidation”) as approved by shareholders at the November 2017 Annual General Meeting (“AGM”);

-   Issue of 48,175,033 warrants (2,408,752 post the Consolidation) to the Industrial Development Corporation
    of South Africa Limited (“IDC”) in terms of the R240 million ($17.6 million) loan agreement with Baobab
    Mining & Exploration (Proprietary) Limited, MCM’s subsidiary and the owner of Makhado;

-   Available cash at Quarter-end of $9.7 million and restricted cash of $0.05 million; and

                                                                                                         2
-   Positive coking and thermal coal price movements during the Quarter, principally due to market supply
    constraints.



QUARTERLY COMMENTARY

Uitkomst Colliery – Utrecht Coalfields (91% owned)
The Uitkomst Colliery employs approximately 573 employees (including contractors) and reported no LTIs during
the Quarter (FY2018 Q1: nil).

Uitkomst comprises the existing underground coal mine and a planned life of mine (“LOM”) extension directly
to the north of current operations, totalling 16 years remaining LOM. The LOM extension requires the
development of a north adit (horizontal shaft) and the colliery has applied for an amendment of its Integrated
Water Use Licence (“IWUL”) prior to commencing this expansion. Uitkomst sells sized coal (peas) products with
the 0 to 40mm product sold into the domestic metallurgical market for use as pulverised coal while the peas are
supplied to local energy generation facilities. Uitkomst’s marketing strategy ensures that the colliery is
positioned to take advantage of higher international coal prices with exposure to both South African rand and
US dollar denominated sales.

The south adit currently being mined comprises two underground sections and ROM production during the
Quarter increased by 12% (140,501t vs. 125,108t) compared to the September 2017 period. The 140,501t of
ROM coal generated during the Quarter resulted in sales of 94,271t (FY2018 Q1: 80,677t). Sales from slurry
processed at the wash plant reduced as anticipated by 53% from 36,489t to 17,201t whilst sales derived from
ROM coal purchased from nearby collieries and blended or, sold directly, yielded 31,371t (FY2018 Q1: 48,266t).
The reduction in slurry and ROM coal purchases is due to seasonal rainfall affecting opencast production during
this period.

Revenue in both US dollars and South African rands was positively impacted by improved international coal
prices and a weaker ZAR during the Quarter. Mining and processing (production) unit costs were largely in line
with the previous quarter (the numbers below are unaudited and extracted from Uitkomst’s management
accounts).

In order to meet the requirements of the South African Mining Charter, the Company is in the process of selling
an additional 21% interest in Uitkomst to Black Economic Empowerment (“BEE”) shareholders on a vendor
financed basis. The transaction will be concluded in Q3 FY2018.

Makhado Coking Coal Project – Soutpansberg Coalfield (95% owned - 69% post BEE and IDC transactions)
The Makhado Project recorded no LTIs (FY2018 Q1: nil) during the Quarter.

The MCM Board approved the Makhado Lite project in the September 2017 quarter facilitating the unlocking of
near-term shareholder value from the Company’s flagship project by reducing capital expenditure and
shortening the construction period. The revised strategy anticipates that Makhado will be constructed in 12
months, a 46 year LOM and allows for future expansion of mining and processing if appropriate. The project has
all the regulatory permits required to commence mining and requires access to the key Lukin and Salaita farms
to confirm geotechnical information prior to the construction of Makhado. These properties are subject to the
South African government’s land claims processes and final resolution of this matter remained outstanding at
the end of the Quarter and, the Company anticipates that this will be resolved in early H2 FY2018.

During the Quarter, the Company engaged independent mining experts Minxcon to complete a CPR on the
Makhado Project and the results are expected in early Q3 FY2018. The Company anticipates that the CPR will
confirm Makhado’s significant near-term value. The Company also continued hard coking and export thermal
coal off-take discussions with various parties and expects that a substantial portion of Makhado’s hard coking
coal will be sold locally with the balance sold on international markets.

Mooiplaats Thermal Coal Colliery – Ermelo Coalfield (sold during the Quarter)
The Mooiplaats Colliery recorded no LTIs prior to its sale (FY2018 Q1: nil) during the Quarter.

The underground Mooiplaats Colliery was developed by MCM with the first coal extracted in 2009 and due to
the reduction in thermal coal prices and increasing logistics costs, was placed under care and maintenance in
October 2013. During the Quarter the Company agreed to sell the Mooiplaats Colliery equity and claims to a
consortium of investors, Mooiplaats Coal Holdings Proprietary Limited (“MCH”), for R179.9 million ($13.2
million). The Purchase Price will be settled as follows:

-   R67.0 million ($4.9 million) paid on transaction closing date, namely 2 November 2017 (“Closing Date”), of
    which R15.0 million ($1.1 million) was paid to the Mooiplaats Colliery BEE partner, Ferret Mining &
    Environmental Services (Proprietary) Limited in full and final settlement of their equity; and
-   The balance of the Purchase Price, being R112.9 million ($8.3 million) to be settled in ten equal quarterly
    instalments (the “Deferred Payments”). The first Deferred Payment is anticipated to be due and payable
    on the last business day nine months after the Closing Date.

MCM acquired ownership and all risk in and benefits to Mooiplaats with effect from the Closing Date and has
pledged its shares and ceded its rights in the Mooiplaats shares and claims as security for the Deferred Payments.
Special and general notarial bonds have also been registered in respect of specific Mooiplaats Colliery assets.
The sale is a culmination of the Company’s strategy to restructure its balance sheet and the proceeds will support
MCM’s project pipeline and develop its flagship Makhado Project.

Vele Coking and Thermal Coal Colliery – Limpopo (Tuli) Coalfield (100% owned)
The Vele Colliery remained on care and maintenance throughout the Quarter and no LTIs were recorded during
the period (FY2018 Q1: nil).

The Company awaits the granting of an IWUL by the Department of Water & Sanitation, the final approval
required to complete the regulatory approvals process for the stream diversion in respect of future mining. Once

                                                                                                                4
all regulatory approvals are in place, the Company will be in a position to consider prevailing market pricing and
the ability to finalise off-take agreements in order to conclude an investment decision on the requisite plant
modifications.

Greater Soutpansberg Project (MbeuYashu) – Soutpansberg Coalfield (74% owned)
The MbeuYashu Project recorded no LTIs (FY2018 Q1: nil) during the three months.

No further developments to report during the Quarter.



Corporate
MCM has made significant progress in the restructuring of its balance sheet, positioning the Company to unlock
shareholder value. During the Quarter shareholders approved, by special resolution requiring at least 75%
support, the re-naming of the Company to reflect its potential growth, particularly of its hard coking
(metallurgical) coal prospects and as a result, the Company changed its name to ‘MC Mining Limited’. The change
of name appropriately recognises the Company’s geographic and operational focus, namely the development
and mining of high quality metallurgical coal projects in Southern Africa.

The settlement of all material legacy issues resulted in MCM’s Directors assessing the disproportionately large
number of shares in issue due to historical equity-based capital raisings and shareholders approved a 20 for one
consolidation of the Company’s issued capital at the AGM, presenting an opportunity to better endorse the
Company to the wider investment community.

The change of name and Consolidation corporate actions were completed in December 2017 and resulted in a
change in the Company’s ticker on the Australian Securities Exchange and AIM Market of the London Stock
Exchange to ‘MCM’, while the Company’s shares trade under the MCZ ticker on the Johannesburg Stock
Exchange, all utilising International Securities Identification Number AU000000MCM9.

Markets
The hard coking coal price continued to increase during the Quarter due to short term supply constraints owing
to adverse weather and infrastructure constraints. The current international price movement underpins the
tightness of world supply and, as such, is positive for longer term pricing. Thermal coal prices have also reflected
more positive fundamentals in the short term with the API4 index increasing from $92/t at the beginning of the
Quarter to approximately $95/t at the end of December 2017 due to increased international demand.

David Brown, CEO commented:
“The Company recorded significant progress during the Quarter with increased production and profitability at
the Uitkomst Colliery, the successful sale of the non-core Mooiplaats Colliery and the change of name and share
consolidation corporate actions. The sale of the Mooiplaats Colliery is the final step in the Company’s balance
sheet restructuring strategy, setting the course for MCM to become a self-sufficient mid-tier coal mining
company.”

“The Mooiplaats disposal will yield annual operational cost savings of approximately $1.4 million and the
aggregate proceeds of approximately R179.9 million will be used to further develop the Company’s flagship
Makhado Project or, the potential acquisition of a cash generating asset.”

“The Makhado Project has the requisite regulatory approvals to commence mining and MCM continues its
efforts to secure access to two key properties for the completion of confirmatory geotechnical work, ensuring
appropriate positioning of the project footprint. The Company anticipates that this will be resolved in early H2
FY2018 with construction following in H1 FY2019. The accelerated build-plan ensures Makhado is positioned to

                                                                                                                  5
take advantage of higher hard coking and thermal coal prices, delivering positive returns for shareholders in the
near-term.”
