Government Chief Valuer Approves RAP Compensation Schedules

The Company is also pleased to report that the Government Chief Valuer from the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Human Settlements Development (MLHHSD) has approved the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) compensation schedules for the Epanko Graphite Project. The compensation schedules have been subsequently signed off by the Regional Commissioner for the Morogoro Region and also by the District Commissioner for the Ulanga District.

The Valuation Reports contain the compensation schedules that cover all Project affected areas, including the access road, mine site, associated infrastructure and resettlement area (including new farmland). The schedules detail the compensation rates applicable to land, crops, trees and the amounts payable to each Project affected person and household.

The RAP was previously provided to the Company’s proposed Project lenders, MLHHSD, Government Chief Valuer, Ministry of Minerals, National Environment Management Council and Regional and District Government authorities. It has also been published on the Company’s website for the mandatory period, as part of the public disclosure requirements of the Equator Principles and IFC Environmental & Social Performance Standards. No complaints or adverse comments on the RAP have been received by the Company.

The Equator Principles are recognised as the global standard for assessing and managing environmental and social risks for projects domiciled in emerging markets. The guidelines of the Equator Principles have been adopted by leading financial institutions worldwide and compliance is a pre-requisite by all development banks and other leading international financial institutions for project financing.

The Government approval of the Valuation Reports marks another milestone in the pre-development process and is an important requirement for the Company’s proposed debt financiers KfW IPEX-Bank, Nedbank CIB and EFIC.
