Background The Mining Charter was implemented in 2004.
The Mining Charter was amended in 2010 to facilitate sustainable Growth, Development and Transformation of the South African Mining Industry. The 2010 amendments introduced: Effective HDSA ownership through Meaningful Economic Participation and full shareholder rights (broad based) It also introduced the concepts of ring fenced elements (i.e. Reporting, Ownership and Housing and Living Conditions) and weighted elements CONFIDENTIAL
4
Background cont.… The year 2014 marked the 10th year anniversary of the Mining Charter and the period at which all targets set should have been met. The Department developed a reporting templates through a consultative process with the MIGDETT task team. The department developed a Web-based system to collect the data from mining right holders. The reporting template is aligned with the Mining Charter score card. CONFIDENTIAL

PROJECT ASSESMENT METHODOLOGY
CONFIDENTIAL
6
Reporting system The templates Original solution EXCEL based
Challenges Inability of EXCEL to collate large volume of data in a short period of time. Revised solution WEB based Outcome Database of information where different analysis can be drawn. CONFIDENTIAL
7
Data The data was assessed with the assistance of an Actuarial Scientist For this assessment, the mining industry and the DMR agreed on the various data fields to be populated and submitted by the industry to the DMR; The DMR augmented the industry data with the following: Data for assessment of Housing and Mining Community Development ; and Employment numbers against each mining right; CONFIDENTIAL
8
Data Weighting For each element, the presentation of the results include a brief outline of the method applied to assess achievement of the Mining Charter targets The aggregate industry results are presented on the following basis: Not-weighted This approach aggregates the industry on a basis that mines of different sizes have equal significance in the output i.e. whether the industry has achieved the targets. Weighted by Size of Mine Weighing the output by the size of the mine provides a better assessment of the significance of the results as larger mines carry more weight than smaller mines in the aggregation of the industry performance. Employment figures have been used as a measure of size of mine. This measure was selected as it is viewed to better capture the social impacts of mining operations, which significantly cuts across all elements of the Mining Charter CONFIDENTIAL
9
Size Categorisation The different mining right holders were categorised by size The size was determined by the number of employees per mining right Categories were therefore: Large employers – mining right holders employing more than people Medium sized employers - mining right holders employing from 101 to 5000 people Small employers - mining right holders employing equal or less than 100 people CONFIDENTIAL
10
Process: - Reasonableness check was conducted on the data. Mining companies that were due for assessment were identified. Further consultations were conducted with stakeholders to clarify issues. Feedback was given to stakeholders through MIGDETT. CONFIDENTIAL
11
Reporting framework The framework used to assess the current transformation status is the reporting template of the mining charter scorecard. The scores for: Reporting, Ownership, Housing & Living Conditions are ring-fenced and targets of 100% must be achieved. The following scores are weighted and aggregated : Procurement & Enterprise Development Employment Equity Human Resource Development Mining Community Development Sustainable Development & Growth CONFIDENTIAL
12
Reporting framework Element Scoring principle
Determination of percentage of companies that have reported. Scoring is Yes if the company has reported and No if the company has not reported. Measured through Meaningful Economic Participation and Full Shareholder Rights. The data was categorized as follows: Category 1: Equal or greater than 26% HDSA ownership credits, but does not have all three identifiable beneficiaries i.e. Entrepreneurs, ESOPS & Communities. Category 2: Equal or greater than 26% HDSA ownership credits and broad-based, but no trickle cash flow to HDSA. Category 2+: Equal or greater than 26% HDSA ownership, broad-based, with reported trickle cash flow to HDSA. Category 3: HDSA ownership below 26% Reporting Ownership CONFIDENTIAL
13
Reporting framework Element Scoring principle
Housing and living conditions The Mining Charter has clearly set a target of 100% conversion of hostels using the following measures: Reduction in occupancy to one person per room; and Conversion of hostels into family units If progress achieved is 100% then the score is Yes. If progress achieved is less than 100% then score is No. CONFIDENTIAL
14
Reporting framework Element Scoring principle
Procurement and Enterprise Development Calculation of percentage expenditure from BEE entities on capital goods, services and consumables, respectively targets are Capital goods = 40%, Services = 70%, Consumables = 50% and ; 0.5% of annual spend on procurement from multinational suppliers CONFIDENTIAL
15
Reporting framework Element Scoring principle
Calculation of percentage HDSA representation to represent country’s demographics at levels specified by the Charter targets for Top Management = 40%, Senior Management = 40%, Middle Management = 40%, Junior Management = 40% and Core Skills = 40% Calculation of percentage payroll expenditure on training as per target target is 5% of total annual payroll (excluding mandatory skills development levies) to be spent on HRD Employment Equity Human Resources Development CONFIDENTIAL
16
Reporting framework Element Scoring principle
The element measures progress against implementation of mine community project commitments by December 2014 Calculation of percentage implementation of the tripartite plan on mine health and safety, approved EMPs and utilisation of SA facilities for analysis of samples targets are EMPs = 100%, Tripartite Action Plan = 100% and Percentage of samples in South African facilities = 100% Mine Community Development Sustainable development and Growth CONFIDENTIAL
17
Spread of Employment across Mining Rights
The below chart provides an indication of how the employees of the sector are spread across mining right holders used in the analysis. Section 28(2)(c) of the MPRDA, 2002, requires every mining company to report its level of compliance with the Charter annually In total data from 375 mining rights was assessed In terms of employment these mining rights account for 95% of total employment by rights that were due for assessment 68% of the employees are amongst 15 operations CONFIDENTIAL
18
Ownership The analysis is based on 442 mining right holders, being the information extracted as at 31 March 2015; Of these, 7 claimed HDSA ownership of more than 100% and 60 mining rights were linked to other mining rights and therefore 375 operations were analysed This analysis on ownership is estimated to cover approximately 95% of employment of those rights that were due for assessment Total employment of out of for companies subject to the Mining Charter CONFIDENTIAL
19
Ownership 79% (not-weighted ) and 90% (weighted) of mining right holders reported meeting the 26% HDSA ownership target with simple total industry average HDSA owners hip of 30.6% (not-weighted ) and 32.5% (weighted) respectively. However when this report is analysed for meaningful economic participation as required by the Charter: Only 6.3% (not-weighted) and 20% (weighted) of the right holders met this criteria Analysis also took into account the continuing consequences of previous deals claimed by mining right holders where it was reported in the system CONFIDENTIAL
20
Ownership Reported data shows that most of the right holders had deals that had one or two of the three identifiable beneficiaries as per the charter requirement For not-weighted data, mine workers are the most excluded category of identifiable beneficiaries followed by communities CONFIDENTIAL
21
Ownership For weighted data, BEE entrepreneurs were the most excluded category of identifiable beneficiaries followed by communities CONFIDENTIAL
22
Ownership 15% of companies have accrued Economic Benefit to HDSA in excess of 26% 64% of the deals have not accrued any value to HDSA These results are not weighted by the size of mine CONFIDENTIAL
23
Ownership Company Value estimated from current value of BEE shareholding 36% of industry has accrued Economic Benefit to HDSA in excess of 26% 37% (i.e. just under 4 out of 10) of the industry deals have not accrued any value to HDSA CONFIDENTIAL
24
Ownership Level of Indebtedness is Value of BEE Shareholding less Current Value of loan Company Value estimated from current value of BEE shareholding 222 operations had NAV to HDSA of zero These results are not weighted by the size of mine CONFIDENTIAL
25
Housing Decent housing and living conditions are the core to a healthy workforce and enhanced productivity 45% of the affected mining operation have FAILED to either convert the hostels to family units OR to reduce the occupancy as required CONFIDENTIAL
