A confluence of:
◆ Perceptions of high risk and barriers to entry
◆ A historic legacy of South Africa as the domain of De Beers, which
is no longer the case
◆ Limited competition for exploration ground
◆ Latest generation diamond exploration technologies not yet
applied
Is South Africa a ‘tired’ mineral province? NO
KEY FACTS
And the oversight of:
◆ Sophisticated fixed and banking infrastructures
◆ A long history of diamond production with some 700m carats of
diamonds produced since 1870.
◆ The county produces in excess of US$1 billion of gems per year
(c.8% of global supply)
Highlights of Vutomi earn-in:
◆ Portfolio of highly prospective multi-stage projects in the vicinity
of known diamond mines
◆ 20 high-interest kimberlites already identified on the various
prospecting rights
BOD Junior Indaba June 2018 5
◆ Supply & demand:
◆ Positive (‘modestly optimistic’) long-term
outlook: rough diamond supply predictable and
stable until 2030; rough diamond demand
expected to grow 1-4% per annum
◆ Continued growth of middle class in China and
India underpins growth forecast
◆ Rough diamond producers boosting investment
in generic and branded marketing
◆ Diamond Prices:
◆ Diamond prices fundamentally driven by
supply-demand dynamics and economic
growth
◆ Fastest commodity to recover following the
Global Financial Crisis
◆ Less prone to volatility than mainstream
commodities, albeit more volatile lately
◆ Rough diamond prices expected to continue
outperforming gold in years ahead
◆ Diamonds attracting interest as an investment
category
Does the dominance of gold and platinum (and coal) blind us
to opportunities in other commodities? Yes! Diamonds!
BOD Junior Indaba June 2018
Why are overseas juniors recognising opportunities while
homegrown entrepreneurs are lagging?
6
◆ AK6/Karowe Mine
◆ Early investors extracted substantial
value from AFD share price growth
◆ Would AK6 be Karowe today, were it
not for ‘Friends, Family & Fools’?
◆ Cash is king!
◆ Fast-forward more than ten years:
have things changed? NO
◆ Exploration and resource
development is highly complex and
risky
◆ It demands a unique skill set,
commonly found in so called resource
incubators
◆ Simply, we don’t have them ….

  • 4. BOD Junior Indaba June 2018 4 A confluence of: ◆ Perceptions of high risk and barriers to entry ◆ A historic legacy of South Africa as the domain of De Beers, which is no longer the case ◆ Limited competition for exploration ground ◆ Latest generation diamond exploration technologies not yet applied Is South Africa a ‘tired’ mineral province? NO KEY FACTS And the oversight of: ◆ Sophisticated fixed and banking infrastructures ◆ A long history of diamond production with some 700m carats of diamonds produced since 1870. ◆ The county produces in excess of US$1 billion of gems per year (c.8% of global supply) Highlights of Vutomi earn-in: ◆ Portfolio of highly prospective multi-stage projects in the vicinity of known diamond mines ◆ 20 high-interest kimberlites already identified on the various prospecting rights
  • 5. BOD Junior Indaba June 2018 5 ◆ Supply & demand: ◆ Positive (‘modestly optimistic’) long-term outlook: rough diamond supply predictable and stable until 2030; rough diamond demand expected to grow 1-4% per annum ◆ Continued growth of middle class in China and India underpins growth forecast ◆ Rough diamond producers boosting investment in generic and branded marketing ◆ Diamond Prices: ◆ Diamond prices fundamentally driven by supply-demand dynamics and economic growth ◆ Fastest commodity to recover following the Global Financial Crisis ◆ Less prone to volatility than mainstream commodities, albeit more volatile lately ◆ Rough diamond prices expected to continue outperforming gold in years ahead ◆ Diamonds attracting interest as an investment category Does the dominance of gold and platinum (and coal) blind us to opportunities in other commodities? Yes! Diamonds!
  • 6. BOD Junior Indaba June 2018 Why are overseas juniors recognising opportunities while homegrown entrepreneurs are lagging? 6 ◆ AK6/Karowe Mine ◆ Early investors extracted substantial value from AFD share price growth ◆ Would AK6 be Karowe today, were it not for ‘Friends, Family & Fools’? ◆ Cash is king! ◆ Fast-forward more than ten years: have things changed? NO ◆ Exploration and resource development is highly complex and risky ◆ It demands a unique skill set, commonly found in so called resource incubators ◆ Simply, we don’t have them ….
