ANNOUNCEMENT 7 December 2017
CHANGE OF NAME TO MC MINING LIMITED
Coal of Africa Limited's ("CoAL" or the "Company") shareholders
approved the change of the Company's name ("Name Change") at the
Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on 24 November 2017. The results of
the AGM as well as previous announcements detailing the recently
completed 20 to 1 share consolidation ("Consolidation") and Name
Change are available on the Company's website
www.coalofafrica.com.
The Consolidation was completed yesterday, 6 December 2017 and
trading of CoAL shares listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock
Exchange ("AIM") recommenced today. Following the Consolidation,
the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX") and AIM are utilising the
International Securities Identification Number ("ISIN")
AU000000CZA6 while the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("JSE") will
continue using the ISIN AU0000CZADC4, pending the implementation of
the new Name Change ISIN.
As previously announced, the Company has received Australian
Investments and Securities Commission approval to change its name
to MC Mining Limited ("MC Mining"). The ASX notified the Company
today that as a result of the Name Change, its new ISIN is
AU000000MCM9, that will be implemented on the ASX on 8 December
2017. The ASX approved timetables previously distributed to the
market anticipated that the Name Change ISIN would be received on 6
December 2017 and this delay unfortunately impedes Euroclear, the
securities settling organisation for AIM transactions, from
effecting the necessary system and administrative amendments
required to implement the Name Change ISIN. As a result, Euroclear
will not be able to process trades in the Company's shares on
Friday, 8 December 2017, requiring the suspension of shares on AIM.
The Company anticipates the suspension will be lifted prior to AIM
market opening on Monday, 11 December 2017. A further update will
be made in due course.
The Name Change will be implemented on the ASX, AIM and JSE as
per the table below.

Shareholders on the South African register are reminded that due
to the Name Change processes, share certificates may not be
de-materialised or re-materialised between the ex-date (11 December
2017) and the record date (14 December 2017). The change in ISIN
precludes the transfer of the Company's shares from or to the South
African share register until record date when the Name Change
process is complete.
The Company expresses its gratitude to shareholders, regulators
and its advisors for their assistance during the complex
Consolidation and Name Change processes.
