Activity 33: The underground gasification of 300 kilograms or more coal per day, including any associated operation.

NEMA listing notice 2: GNR. 984 Activity 17: Any activity including the operation of that activity which requires a mining right as contemplated in section 22 of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act, 2002 (Act No. 28 of 2002), including associated infrastructure, structures and earthworks, directly related to the extraction of a mineral resource, including activities for which an exemption has been issued in terms of section 106 of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act, 2002 (Act No. 28 of 2002}.

The proposed project will use the Underground Coal Gasification (UCG) process to extract the energy value of the coal in a usable form as synthesis gas (syngas) I DEPARTMENT OF MINERAL RESOURCES MINE ENVIRONMENTA L MANAGEMENT Detailed specifications of the activity are as follows: I PRIVATE BAG X33 WELKOM 9459 TEL· '.lf; ~ ' I() • 1 ''J(l i Mining activity details are as follows: I 0 1 AUG 2019 ) Area under application - 600 hectares (ha) I ::~"11Rom,1EN ,1\1. :1.u1 HOR1s,.; ,uN GRANTEl) Ne MA, 1998 IACT 107 OF 1998) AS '\MENDED Underground coal gasification 1RE GION~~P,N AG ER~FRtES'l}TEREGl~

Underground coal gasification is roughly 100 ha coal footprint (±5 million tons of coal). The UCG technology proposed for this project is referred to as Controlled Retractable Injection Point (CRIP). Using a directionally drilled injection well, the oxidant mix is injected into an underground coal seam where a cavity is formed by removing the carbon from the coal. The cavity acts like a very efficient underground gasifier, consuming and converting the coal in-situ and producing energy-carrying gas which is extracted through the production well. The project will involve gasification of about 5 million tons of coal over 20 years under an area of about 150 ha.

Environmental Authorisation for file reference number FS 30/5/1/2/3/2/1 (10034) EM Page3 of22 Syngas processing and power generation

The ash (non-combustible constituents) remains underground in the gasifier after the coal has been gasified. The raw gas will be cooled on surface to remove water, particulate matter and higher hydrocarbons. If gas turbines are used, sulphur will be removed from the cooled gas as a saleable by-product, but sulphur removal is not necessary if reciprocating gas engines are used.

An independent power producer (IPP) will use the resulting syngas to generate electricity (50 - 60 MWe nett). The footprint of the above ground gas processing facility and power plant will be about 3 ha and it will include: • Infrastructure required for the gasification process; I OEPARTMEN{oi=MT~!cRAL··- R-E-SO-U-RC+lE-s' • Above ground gas preparation facilities; I MINlRrSi~t~~~1~~t~~7i~~~~G9~~:Nlr 057 391 1300 • Some 18 reciprocating gas engines or one gas turbine; , TEL: • Electrical power generators; and I O1 AUG 2019 j I • A ± 10 km power line connecting the power station to the national gridi .:MVIRONMENTAL AUTHORISATION GRANT :0 !

3. Key factors considered in making the decision

All the information presented to the Department was taken into account upon the Department's consideration of the application. A summary of the issues which, in the Department's view, were of the most significance are set out below. a) A sufficient PPP was undertaken and the company has satisfied the minimum requirements as prescribed in the EIA Regulations for public involvement; b) The environmental impacts associated with the activities will be addressed by the implementation of mitigation measures outlined in the EIAR compiled by Mr Etienne Roux of Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd ; c) Social Impact Assessment Report November 2013; compiled by Dr David de Waal of Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd indicated that the project will have some positive impacts in its extension of employment opportunities and economic benefits with con tinued input into the mining sector, the largest economic contributor in the local , and supplying electrical power into the national grid. d) Surface Water Baseline Report dated August 2013 compiled by Ms. Amanda Cassa and Mr. Trevor Coleman of Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd concluded that a monitoring programme must be set up to collect flow and water quality data on the project area. e) Visual Impact Assessment dated August 2013 compiled by Mr. J Bothma indicated that various visual mitigation measures have been identified to address the anticipated visual impacts, however it is expected that the construction and operational mitigation potential will be somewhat limited, due to the design and operational restrictions posed by the plant infrastructure, which is the main visible component of the project.

Air Quality Specialist Assessment dated January 2014 compiled by Ms. Candice Allan and Mr. Lance Coetzee of Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd is in support of the development as the overall significance of this impact is anticipated to be low, as the facility is predicted to comply with local (South African) and international (IFC) ,

ION Of the development as it is stated that at this stage Of the investigation there IS no nsof groundwater contamination of the deeper groundwater system during UCG, as the groundwater movement direction is towards and into the gasification chamber, and therefore no components will be mobilized into the surrounding groundwater system. h) Phase I Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) Study dated 2013 compiled by Dr. Julius CC Pistorius indicated that mitigation measures are outlined in the study should any of these heritage resources be affected by the proposed UCG Project. i) Palaeontological Impact Assessment: Phase 1 Field Study dated 091h of August 2017 compiled by Dr. Heidi Fourie has no objection to the development, and indicated that it is not necessary to request a Phase 2 Palaeontological Impact Assessment. j) Soil, land capability and land use assessment dated the 10th of September 2013 compiled by P.I. Steenekamp of Environmental and Rehabilitation Monitoring Consultant concluded that there is no soils were classed as arable land on either the proposed or alternative plant footprints. k) Expected Goaf Height for Different Combustion Chamber Widths date 17th of January 2014 compiled by Prof JN van der Merwe of Stable Strata Consulting (Pty) Ltd assumes that the rock over the immediate roof area being substantially weaker, it is possible that where the supposedly stronger bottom layer are weaker or thinner, they may collapse and in that case, the weaker overlying rock will collapse sooner than expected.

I) Ecological Study dated July 2013 compiled by Melissa Moffett of African Litany CC concluded that there is no significant ecological flaws that would prevent a project like this from going ahead were identified during this survey. m) Aquatic Biomonitoring and Impact Assessment dated April 2016 compiled by Ms. Kylie Farrell April 2016 of Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd concluded that the appropriate mitigation measures concerning the aquatic environment be implemented, to ensure protection of the downstream rivers. n) Environmental Noise Impact Assessment dated 071h of August 2013 compiled by Barend van der Merwe of dBAcoustics indicated that noise during the proposed UCG project (construction and operational phases) can be controlled by means of appropriate acoustic screening measures, state of the art equipment, proper noise management principles and compliance with the Local Noise Control Regulations, and the International Finance Corporation's Environmental Health and Safety Guidelines. o) Traffic Impact Assessment dated April 2016 compiled by Jonas Makala of EDS Engineering Design Services (Pty) Ltd has no objection and support the proposed development from traffic and transportation engineering perspective. p) Annual Greenhouse Gas Emissions Forecast Report dated the 11th of April 2016 compiled by Mr. David Mercer of Golder Associates Africa (Pty) Ltd conclude A combination of Energy Management Systems
