About the Stanhove Mining Tailings Dump

The Stanhove tailings dump is located east of Johannesburg, South Africa, within the area known locally as the East Rand gold basin and was accumulated after mining and processing gold ore from within the Witwatersrand gold mining district. The Witwatersrand basin comprises a sequence of very old, Archean, sedimentary rocks with the gold hosted in a quartz pebble conglomerate. The dominant mineral in the rock hosting the original ore is predominantly quartz with minor pyrite with which the gold is associated. Initial processing involved crushing and grinding the rock to liberate the gold by various processes, depending on the historical period, with the resulting waste being accumulated in tailings piles, of which the Stanhove pile is one. The earliest recovery processes were less efficient and therefore the waste tailings still contained significant quantities of gold. Drill sampling of the Stanhove tailings pile has identified gold values ranging upwards from <0.3g/t Au to >1.3g/t Au with increasing depth in the pile. It is typical of these old dumps for the earliest material mined to have accumulated at the bottom of the tailings pile and to have the highest grades in the basal layer. The Stanhove tailings pile of dry, ground-up rock covers an area of approximately 270 x 170 metres and reaches a maximum height of 20 metres, although most of it is less than half that height according to information provided by the vendors.

The company holds a non-compliant technical report about the project. Prior to final closing of the documentation of the agreement Greenbank and Ubique will undertake technical due diligence to verify the technical aspects of the project.
