1.2 OVERVIEW OF AFRITIN

AfriTin Mining Limited (“AfriTin”) is a mining company with a portfolio of near-term production tin assets in Namibia and South Africa. The Company was established in 2017 and listed on AIM in November 2017, to acquire the tin assets of Bushveld Minerals Limited, an AIM quoted natural resource company, and was formed to take advantage of the deficit in primary tin production. AfriTin is the first pure play tin company listed in London and has a vision to create a portfolio of world class, conflict-free, tin producing assets. The Company’s flagship asset is the Uis brownfield tin mine in Namibia, formerly the world’s largest hard-rock tin mine. It also owns the Mokopane Tin Project in South Africa.

The company was mandated by its shareholders to establish a small-scale mining and processing operation at Uis in Namibia (“Phase 1”), producing tin concentrate from pegmatite ore. This operation is regarded as a pilot for a large-scale facility to be implemented as a second project phase (“Phase 2”) in 2021.

1.3 LOCATION OF THE V1/V2 PEGMATITE MINING FOR PHASE 1

The Phase 1 mining area is located within the Uis Tin Project on Mining License (“ML”) 134 in the Erongo Region, north western Namibia (Figure 1-1).

The Phase 1 mining area is accessed from Windhoek via the sealed (tarred) B1 highway north to Okahandja, the sealed (tarred) B2 highway from Okahandja westwards to Wilhelmstal, and the sealed (tarred) C36 main road north westwards to Omaruru. From Omaruru westwards to the village of Uis, the C36 is a gravel road (Figure 1-1). The distance by road from Windhoek to Uis is approximately 330 km.

From Walvis Bay, access is via the B2 sealed (tarred) highway northwards to Swakopmund, the main C34 salt road north along the coast to Henties Bay, and then the gravel main M76/C35 road northeast to the village of Uis (Figure 1-1). The total driving distance is approximately 225 km.


Figure 1-1: Location of V1/V2 Pegmatite Mining Area for Phase 1

The V1/V2 pegmatite was identified as a potential source of pegmatite ore for Phase 1. The V1/V2 pegmatite bodies occur within the Uis pegmatite swarm and were exploited by the historic Uis Tin Mine. These bodies comprise the bulk of the historic tin ore reserves as defined by Steffen Robertson & Kirsten (“SRK”). In 1987 SRK defined economic ore reserves of 7.5 million tonnes for the V1/V2 pegmatites at a grade of 0.140% Sn. SRK identified a further 34 million tonnes of “long-term” reserves grading at 0.139% Sn for V1/V2.

1.4 GEOLOGY

The pegmatites at Uis are situated within the Pan-African collisional Damara Belt, where a number of roughly east-northeast trending pegmatite belts contain numerous rare-metal pegmatites hosting W, Nb, Ta, Be and Sn mineralisation. These rare-metal pegmatites appear to be confined to narrow regional belts of upper Damaran Supergroup metasediments preserved in grabens that have been active since Proterozoic times. The pegmatite belts of interest to the Project are the Cape-Cross – Uis Pegmatite Belt and the Nei-Neis – Kohero Pegmatite Belt.

The pegmatites found within ML134 were the target for mining at the former Uis Tin Mine. The mineralised pegmatites were discovered in 1911 and were intermittently worked by various owners until 1958, when the mine was bought by Imcor, who mined the deposit until closure in 1990.

Generally, the pegmatites have grain sizes of a few mm to decimeters, and cassiterite crystals range from fine-grained (<1 mm) to coarse (up to 5 cm) in size. Although most pegmatites are assumed to have a fairly consistent average tin grade, a number of pegmatites exhibit patches of coarser cassiterite, where tin grades are higher. The higher-grade tin mineralisation is usually associated with greisenisation and minor quartz-rich areas.


Figure 1-2: V1/V2 pegmatite and the planned location of the pilot plant

1.4.1 MATERIAL DENSITY

The geological mapping programme did not include material density measurements and grade sampling and assays. Tonnage calculations should be based on an assumed relative density 2.66 t/m3 for both ore and waste material. The average uniform compressive strength (“UCS”) of the rock is 150 MPa.

1.5 MINING

It is assumed that mining will be open pit, with conventional truck and excavator mining methods, and a 10 m bench height (two 5 m loading flitches) for both the mineralised material and waste schist as per historic mining in the Project area.

The overall pit slopes of the historical mining excavations were investigated through digital measurements on the generated DTM, showing maximum slope angles ranging between 50 and 60 degrees. An overall pit slope angle of 55 degrees (crest-to-crest) was selected for design. Assuming that mining for Phase 1 will be conducted with relatively small mining equipment (i.e. excavators and articulated dump trucks) ramps are designed at a gradient of 12.5% and a width of 15m. The minimum mining width is assumed to be 20m.

Each of the pits contains two to three mining phases. The initial phase in each area targets a low overburden stripping ratio; subsequent phases have a higher stripping ratio.

The pit design for the V1 pegmatite contains 2 phases namely Phase 2 is essentially a deepening of the historical excavation and Phase 5 is a pushback to access ore at increasing depth as illustrated in Figure 1-3. The pit design for V2 contains 3 phases with Phase 1 and 3 targeting the surface outcrop of the pegmatite and Phase 4 serving as a pushback at a higher incremental stripping ratio as shown in Figure 1-4.

2. DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLY

2.1 SCOPE OF WORK

All services shall be supplied in accordance with all legislative requirements of the Republic of Namibia, according to the Minerals (Prospecting and Mining) Act of 1992, the Minerals Policy, Mine Health and Safety Regulations (10th Draft) issued by the Ministry of Mines and Energy under section 138A of the Minerals (Prospecting and Mining) Act 33 of 1992 as amended, the Environmental Management Act 7 of 2007 and the Labour Act (Act 11 of 2007.

Mining operations will be carried out in accordance with all relevant acts and regulations, in particular the following:

Minerals (Prospecting and Mining) Act 33 of 1992 (MINING AND MINERALS)

Labour Act 2007

National Heritage Act, 2004

Nature Conservation Ordinance, 1975

Atmospheric Pollution Prevention Ordinance, 1976

Petroleum Products and Energy Act, 1990,

Water Act, 1956

Soil Conservation and Wildlife Conservation Act 2001

Forest Act, 2001

Hazardous Substances Ordinance, 1974

Explosives Act, 1956


Details of this supply, mining and other specifics as well as schedules of tonnes (waste) and tonnes (ore) per area are contained in Annexure A (Mining Schedule).

Generally, the supply involves the loading and haulage of waste and ore material from the V1/V2 mining area to specific waste rock dump and stockpile locations in the project’s mining area. (Please consult the mine infrastructure layout around pit V1/V2 in Figure 2-1 on the next page). The supply includes the provision of support services to allow safe and efficient performance of the supply in accordance with this RFQ.

The supply, on a routine basis, requires the mining of selected ore zones, loading, hauling and stockpiling together with the waste stripping (topsoil, overburden) required to expose the ore.

Ore will be either direct tipped into the primary crusher bin or dumped on stockpiles. The service also includes ore re-handling loading ore material with a suitable front-end loader from the Run of Mine (“RoM”) stockpiles to the primary crusher.

The RoM stockpiles in the vicinity of the primary crusher will be demarcated by the client and must be utilized to stockpile ore mined by the contractor.

The scope also includes the removal of dry tailings material. Ore trucks that would have travelled with an empty load from the RoM pad to the pit area will haul in this case dry tailings material from the plant to the co-disposal waste rock dump areas.

The techniques to be utilized in the mining of open pit mining areas will be required to be developed by the Contractor but must be designed to ensure best mining practices. The client will demarcate the mining boundaries and provide the contractor with geotechnical slope designs at an appropriate time.

Figure 2-1: Proposed mine infrastructure around the V1/V2 pits

This scope of work to be carried out by the Contractor sets out standards that are to be maintained in the execution of the work and establishes the responsibilities of the Client, the Contractor and the Client relevant to the various matters to be performed under the Tender. In performing the work, the Contractor shall meet the following requirements and have due regard for the included guidelines.


The Contractor acknowledges that he has made adequate allowance in his unit rates to accommodate all the requirements and guidelines set out in the scope of work. The Contractor’s work shall include but not be limited to the following activities in the mining area:

Cleaning and preparing the mining areas;

Stripping and placing of overburden on stockpiles and the shaping thereof;

Prevention of unnecessary contamination;

Loading and hauling of ore to a stockpile or directly into the tipping arrangement, when so instructed by the Client;

Creating and maintaining the ore stockpile at the designated area;

Supplying all equipment to perform the activities required;

In pit water handling;

Establishment, re-instalment and maintenance of access ramps and haul roads on site;

Creating and maintaining of clean and dirty water management systems, which include trenches berms and dam;

Maintenance of own equipment; and

Logging of mining data as required by the client for performance management

2.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK

2.2.1 Hard waste (overburden) removal

The hard overburden and waste rock shall be mined separately from the ore and will be stockpiled on waste dumps that will be identified to the contractor. During the contract period of mining it is expected that the waste dumping sites will be within 500 m of the point at which the haul road exits the pit at the pit rim.

2.2.2 Ore handling and removal

Ore will be mined and stockpiled or tipped into the primary crusher. The Contractor will give due consideration to maximising extraction. The Client shall inspect all areas after the ore has been removed and the Contractor shall only fill these areas with other material after receiving written permission from the Client to do so.

The Contractor shall load and transport ore from the open pit workings to the processing facility. The maximum product size allowed at the processing facility will be 500 mm in any dimension. The management, operation and maintenance of the ore stockpile at the pit shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.

2.2.3 Infrastructure roadways and haul roads

The Contractor shall be responsible for the construction and maintenance of mine infrastructure roads, including storm water handling, and the ongoing and regular maintenance thereof. Also, the Contractor shall be responsible for the construction and maintenance of all haul roads planned by the Client or required by the Contractor, for the duration of the contract. Dust allaying is included.


3. MINING AND PRODUCTION

3.1 MINING PRODUCTION SCHEDULING

The pit designs as shown in Figure 1-3 and Figure 1-4 above has been sequenced in order to generate a schedule producing 40,000 tonnes plant feed per month for the Phase 1 pilot plant. The mining production scheduling is set to begin on the 14th of January 2019 and site establishment will have to occur on or before the 7th of January 2019 in order to meet this schedule.

Mining from a single pit increases the production risk and does not allow for flexibility in terms of grade control. The nature of the V1/V2 pegmatite bodies allows for the development of two separate pits and production was modelled to balance mining between these two pits (V1/V2).

It is assumed that production within a single mining phase will proceed in a bench-by-bench fashion from top to bottom. While the opportunity may exist to split production between two or more levels within a phase, this flexibility was not allowed for resulting in a more conservative overburden stripping profile. The mining volumes are summarised per quarter in the next series of graphs.
