                               Corporate Update

The board of Continental Coal Limited (ASX:CCC; AIM:COOL)("Continental" or "the
Company") wishes to advise shareholders that subsequent to the completion of
the Rights Issue (see ASX announcement dated 30  September 2014) it has been
presented with offers from third parties interested in acquiring its 74%
interest in South African subsidiary Continental Coal Limited SA ("CCL SA").

The offers include proof of funds and are also of a quantum which provides for
the satisfaction of key debts at both the parent and 74% subsidiary level
(namely ABSA and EDF) in accordance with negotiations that have been ongoing
since the new Board was appointed in February 2014. The offers (if accepted and
completed) would leave the company with excess cash reserves at its disposal
and the ability to pursue new opportunities that have been presented to it.

Currently the Board is finalising legal advice with regards to a scenario
whereby an accepted offer is announced and Shareholders are then offered the
opportunity to have their funds returned from the Rights Issue, remain in a
new raising by way of a supplementary prospectus or participate in the new
raising given the change in circumstances which some Shareholders may want to
participate in as opposed to the previous Rights Issue.

It is expected that an announcement detailing the outcome of this
consideration, together with advice received, will be released to the ASX and AIM on or
before Tuesday 14 October 2014.

For and on behalf of the Board

Peter Landau
Executive Director
