Exxaro Coal asset structure

Overview
Eight coal mines produce 41,3Mtpa of power station, steam and coking coal. All of the power station coal produced is supplied to the national power utility, Eskom. Grootegeluk is one of the lowest-cost and most efficient mining operations in the world, and operates the world’s largest coal beneficiation complex. A strong pipeline of greenfield and expansion projects at various stages of development will result in Exxaro becoming one of the largest coal producers in South Africa.
STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES
- Improving operational excellence by maintaining and strengthening our position in the lower quartile

- Strengthening our dominant market position as a supplier to domestic metals and energy markets, and
increasing our presence in the power station coal export market.
- Ensuring exceptional value growth by executing brown- and greenfields coal growth projects to
produce 85Mtpa by 2015.
- Diversifying our portfolio by moving downstream into the reductant and energy business sectors.
- Maintaining and improving our high-performance culture.
