  • Marampa Mines implements new logistics solution to enhance marine transportation efficiencies
  • USD 10 million paid to the Government of Sierra Leone on 29 October 2021, the first installment of a fixed sum of USD 20 million as the current “Stockpile” is monetised
  • Restarted production of premium grade >65% Fe content iron ore concentrate (“IOC”), one of the highest grades in Africa and among the cleanest grades globally
  • Plans to conduct technical studies in 2022 for optimising the production of premium grade iron ore, critical for carbon emissions reduction in the steelmaking process

Lunsar, Sierra Leone, 29 October, 2021: Marampa Mines Limited, (“MML”, “Marampa Mines” or “the Company”) a subsidiary of Gerald Group (“Gerald”), one of the world’s leading metals merchants, has completed loading of its first Capesize and set sail carrying over 175,000 WMT of premium grade iron ore concentrate. The Capesize, M.V. Athenian Phoenix, completed cargo loading and departed from Freetown Outer Anchorage yesterday evening the 28 October 2021.

Gerald has implemented a new logistics solution for marine transportation of material from MML’s own Thofeyim River Terminal to Freetown Port Harbour, by purchasing its own fleet of river coasters and a transhipper, thereby enhancing efficiencies in the export logistics process. This export solution does not rely on 3rd party contracted river barges or smaller geared Ocean-Going Vessels which are less efficient.  With the new logistics solution, Capesize vessels are able to be loaded efficiently at a deep-water anchorage at Freetown Harbour on a consistent and stable basis.

Frederic Lotti, Marampa Mines’ COO and the Group’s Global Head of Investments, said: “I am pleased that ‘Marampa BlueTM’ high grade iron ore concentrate routed through the Thofeyim River Terminal and the Loko river completed loading on a Capesize vessel for the very first time in the history of Marampa, and set sail on Thursday evening, the 28 October 2021. Loading capesize vessels will materially improve efficiencies in our overall supply chain, a key objective not only in reducing our operating cost, but also in advancing our ESG plan and minimising our carbon footprint”.

Timothy Musa Kabba, Minister of Mines and Mineral Resources in the Sierra Leone Government, added: “Sierra Leone’s economic growth is largely based on export earnings from natural resources, particularly from iron ore. My ministry continues to work on the development of the mines and mineral resources sector at a key time in Sierra Leone’s pathway to economic stability and recovery. The restart of Marampa Mines represents a crucial step forward in our new direction”.

With the export of the current Capesize, Marampa Mines is about two-thirds through exporting its initial “Stockpile” of ~707k tonnes of iron ore concentrate, beneficiated by SL Mining Limited and known as Marampa BlueTM, following an out of court settlement, which ended a long-standing dispute between the Government of Sierra Leone and SL Mining. As per the “Contract Regarding Sale of Iron Ore Stockpile” signed on 25 May 2021 pursuant to the binding settlement signed on 7 May 2021, the Company has paid USD 10 million to the Government on 29 October 2021, the first installment of a fixed sum of USD 20 million as the Stockpile is monetised, and the second installment of USD 10 million by 31 December 2021.

Marampa Mines successfully restarted mining and processing of Marampa BlueTM on 1 September 2021, and will raise production of >65% iron ore concentrate from 2M tonnes per year to 3.25M tonnes per year within 12 months. MML will concurrently look at options to implement major expansions to leverage on its compliant mineral resources of approximately 1.7B tonnes of ore. Today, MML employs around 800 people on-site, of which approximately 90% are Sierra Leoneans, and the Project is expected to create a total of 1,400 jobs by early 2022.  The Company is implementing a comprehensive modular training program for Sierra Leonean staff, including training women for the workforce and within the community.

18 February, 2020 –  Lunsar, Sierra Leone and London, UK: SL Mining Limited (“SL Mining” / “the Company”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Gerald International Limited, issues this press release in order to protect its legitimate interests and place third parties on notice.  This release relates to the ICC Arbitral Tribunal’s Peremptory Order dated 13 February 2020 and the binding restrictions placed by the Tribunal upon the Government of Sierra Leone (“Government”) in respect of SL Mining’s Marampa Project, assets, stockpiles and equipment.

SL Mining is pursuing legal action, including ICC Arbitration, against the Government of Sierra Leone as a result of the Government’s unlawful conduct and non-compliance with the binding decisions reached in international arbitration. In the Company’s Statement of 8 October 2019, SL Mining confirmed that the Government had, by letter received on 7 October 2019, purported to cancel SL Mining’s Large-Scale Mining Licence No ML 01/2017 relating to the Marampa Project. This purported cancellation was unlawful and invalid and was contrary to the binding orders of the ICC Emergency Arbitrator.

Following the purported cancellation of SL Mining’s Licence, the ICC Arbitral Tribunal issued an order on 25 November 2019, which the Company has described in a Statement dated 27 November 2019.  The Government failed to comply with that Order and instead aggravated the dispute with SL Mining. The Government’s non-compliance and aggravating misconduct has led the ICC Arbitral Tribunal to issue, at SL Mining’s request, a Peremptory Order on 13 February 2020 in which the Tribunal:

  1. Ordered the Government to rescind the purported cancellation of SL Mining’s Licence or otherwise to reinstate it.
  2. Declared that the Government failed to comply with the ICC Emergency Arbitrator’s orders dated 30 August 2019, 8 September 2018, 4 October 2019 and 9 October 2019.
  3. Declared that the Government failed to comply with the ICC Tribunal’s interim order dated 4 November 2019.
  4. Ordered that, until ordered otherwise and pending the final resolution of the dispute by the Tribunal:
    • The Government lifts any prohibition on shipping or export of minerals directed at SL Mining;
    • The parties continue to comply with their obligations under clause 6.9(d) of the Large Scale Licence Agreement between the Government of Sierra Leone and SL Mining Limited dated 5 December 2017;
    • The parties refrain from aggravating and take no steps to aggravate the dispute between them;
    • The Government shall refrain from:
      • removing, dealing with, or otherwise interfering, directly or via third parties, with SL Mining’s assets, including equipment and stockpiles of iron ore, in relation with SL Mining’s Marampa iron ore project;
      • directly or indirectly operating itself, or allowing third parties to operate, the Marampa Project;
      • taking any steps towards the issuance of a mining licence and/or entry into a mining lease agreement relating to the Marampa Project or any part thereof to and/or with a third party; and
      • otherwise altering the status quo as of immediately before receipt of the letter purportedly cancelling the Licence.
    • Declared and ordered that the ICC Emergency Arbitrator’s orders continue in full force.
    • Ordered the Government to comply with the ICC Tribunal’s orders within 8 days of the Peremptory Order.

A peremptory order is a final order made by a tribunal specifying a time for compliance. It brings with it a number of adverse legal consequences for the Government.  The ICC Tribunal also found that “pursuant to the arbitration agreement between the Parties, as ratified by Parliament, “any decision” of this Tribunal “is final and binding and enforceable” and has “the same force and effect as a judgment of a court of the last resort of the Republic of Sierra Leone or any other appropriate jurisdiction.” SL Mining will not hesitate to take legal action against third parties who infringe its rights in relation to the Marampa Project.

SL Mining is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Gerald International Limited, which is the holding company for all entities in Gerald Group. The Group is one of the world’s leading commodity groups, and the oldest and largest employee-owned metals merchant in the world. SL Mining restarted production at the Marampa Project after 4 years, following earlier failed attempts by other international companies. SL Mining began marketing and shipping premium grade >65% iron ore concentrate to steel mills in China in June and July 2019 from the Marampa Project.
