Resource Generation Limited
ACN 059 950 337
Quarterly Report
for the three months ended 30 June 2015
Resource Generation is developing its Boikarabelo coal mine in the Waterberg region of South Africa, which accounts for 40% of the country's remaining coal resources. There are probable reserves of 744.8* million tonnes of coal on 35% of the tenements under the company's control (refer ASX announcement dated 16 December 2010). Stage 1 of the mine development targets saleable coal production of 6 million tonnes per annum.
Debt funding
Negotiations with various parties including a club of potential financiers to provide project finance for the construction of the Boikarabelo mine continued during the quarter. The process in reaching an agreed term sheet has been protracted due to several factors including the variable nature of the envisaged loan structure and maintaining deliverable outcomes within prevailing debt and coal markets. It is proposed that if this facility proceeds the existing loan from Noble Group will become part of the above facility.
Expectations are that the project finance will provide all required remaining funding for the mine construction. Consequently, if the proposed facility is made available, the Company does not envisage the need for an associated equity raising.
While this protracted process is on-going, the company continues to explore alternate debt funding arrangements to maximise the chance of finalising the successful development of the Boikarabelo mine.
Boikarabelo mine construction
Several items of construction of the mine's infrastructure continued during the quarter, while project debt funding was being negotiated. Major construction activities can commence after project funding is finalised. The items that occurred during the quarter were:
power supply infrastructure; and
13 kilometres of water pipeline associated with the effluent treatment plant.
EHL Energy (Pty) Limited completed the erection of power poles and transmission lines for the 132kV power supply. Construction of the substation and switch room commenced and is scheduled for completion by October 2015. The power supply infrastructure is funded by a deferred payment facility.
The Marapong effluent treatment facility in Lephalale and the 58 kilometre pipeline to Boikarabelo are an integral part of the mine's social and labour plan. Earthworks were previously completed for a 13 kilometre section of the pipeline adjacent to a main road. Installation of pipes was completed during the quarter and testing is close to completion.

Sub-station Switch Room Construction in Background
As previously announced, all regulatory consents have been received, all necessary land has been acquired and rail haulage and port access contracts sufficient for the mine's stage 1 production have been signed. Sales contracts have been signed that underwrite most of
stage 1 production.
Mining tenements
The coal mining rights and exploration tenements held at the end of the quarter were as follows in South Africa (Waterberg):
MPT15/2012 MR (74%)
PR720/2007 (74%)
PR678/2007 (74%)
The company has no interest in farm-in or farm-out agreements.
The company is in the process of relinquishing PR720/2007, over the properties Lisbon and Zoetfontein, as these are distant from the Boikarabelo site and contain minimal resources that have not been included in the stated JORC resource.
Corporate
Cash reserves at 30 June 2015 were $28.6 million.
