Moma update
Kenmare Resources plc (LSE:KMR, ISE:KMR), one of
the leading global producers of titanium minerals and zircon, which
operates the Moma Titanium Minerals Mine (the "Mine" or "Moma") in
northern Mozambique, provides an update on the recent protests in
Mozambique, including in areas surrounding its Moma Mine.
The safety and wellbeing of employees,
contractors, and the Company’s host communities remain Kenmare’s
highest priorities and there are no reported injuries to date at
the Mine. The Company is monitoring the situation closely and is
taking precautionary measures to ensure the continued safety of its
personnel and the integrity of its facilities. Contrary to some
media reports, senior management have remained on the mine site and
no employees have been evacuated.
While the majority of protestors have engaged
peacefully, a proportion have been involved in civil disorder and
criminal activities, including commandeering and damaging vehicles,
some of which have subsequently been returned. However, there has
been no damage to Company facilities and operations at the Mine are
continuing as normal.
The presence of authorities on the ground has
increased, which has calmed the situation over the weekend. The
Company remains committed to maintaining open communication with
all stakeholders to support the swift and peaceful resolution of
the situation.
Kenmare will provide further updates as
required.
