    Regional Context

    MozambiquesInvestment Promotion Centre reportsthat industry, which includes mining andhydrocarbons, attracted most investments in 2013;

    Anadarko and ENI plan to install a large-scaleLNG development to accommodate recoverableresources in the range of 5070 trillion cubic feet(tcf);

    Mozambique natural gas recoverable resourcesare estimated above 100 tcf;

    7 multinational companies will be mining coal in theresource-rich Moatize district Tete Province by theend of 2014;

    Syrah Resources, Auroch Minerals, Triton Mineralsand Gemfields have rolled out drilling programs inMozambique;

    Sasol Petroleum, the first mover in oil & gas inMozambique, announced first commercialproduction and sale of crude oil scheduled for2014, capable of delivering 2000 barrels perday;

    Recently, Mozambique has been host to world-classdiscoveries involving coal, natural gas and naturalgraphite;

    Over $6bn have been invested in mining andhydrocarbon projects in the last 5 years in EastAfrica;

    Statoil and BG Group plan to build a $15bn LNGplant in Tanzania, having recoverable reservesbetween 1013 trillion cubic feet (tcf);

    Kenya, Comoros and Madagascar have reportedmultinational investment inflows related to miningand hydrocarbon exploration;

    Tanzania and Madagascar have recently attractedcompanies interested in exploring precious metalsand industrial minerals;

    Several mining juniors have advanced drillingprograms in Malawi, Tanzania and Zambia forgold, nickel and graphite exploration;

    Most projects in the East Africa region face lack ofinfrastructure challenges that require nationalstrategic plans, roads, railways, and portdevelopments to be in place;

    Political and economic stability, security,transparency and attractive business environmentare critical to the whole region;

    Access to global markets

    According to reports the East Africa region could become the worlds next oil and gas export hub in the

    foreseeable future due to ambitious projects being developed in Kenya, Mozambique and Tanzania;

    Mozambiques hydrocarbon developments intend to target Asian markets, where countries such as China,

    India, Japan and South Korea experience gas shortages;

    Coal projects by Vale Moambique, Jindal Steel & Power, Rio Tinto target future demand from steel making

    industries, mainly, in China and India;

    International companies engaged in advanced gold and natural graphite projects in Mozambique havereported securing funds for additional drilling in their respective areas;

    Most companies involved in exploration and mining in East Africa are active members of reputable stock

    exchanges ,such as the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX), the Toronto Stock Exchange, the London Sock

    Exchange, where they are capable of raising capital to fund their projects worldwide;

    The price of gold forecasted for 2014 is US$ 1,200.00, while nickel has been earmarked at US$ 20,000

    this year by Vale, and agreements between future producer and consumers of graphite, in the industrialminerals space, have been signed with an established base price of US$ 1,000.00 per tonne;

    Recently, the Chinese Government has imposed a ban on graphite mining activities due to environmental

    and pollution concerns. China supplies 70% of graphite, and this ban is expected to reduce graphite supply

    by 30%;

    Indonesias ban on unprocessed nickel in January 2014 is expected to curtail supplies;

    In 2013 China has surpassed the United States as the largest global gold consumer for the first time;
