Kenmare Moma Development Association ANNUAL REPORT 2022 www.kenmareresources.com/sustainability/kmad Kenmare Moma Development Association INTRODUCTION A Catalyst for Positive Social and Economic Change Who we are The Kenmare Moma Development Association (KMAD) is a not-for-profit organisation, established in 2004, to implement development programmes in the Moma Mine’s host communities. The Moma Titanium Minerals Mine is owned and operated by Kenmare Resources plc and located in north-east Mozambique. What we do KMAD aspires to be a catalyst for positive social and economic change in the mine’s host communities. The focus of our work is framed by our four key strategic pillars: livelihoods and economic development, education, healthcare and water and sanitation. How we do it KMAD is run by an independent team, responsible for the day-to-day management of activities, with oversight provided by the KMAD General Assembly. Funding is primarily provided by Kenmare, augmented by contributions from third parties. Development programmes support small businesses, enhance healthcare provision, and increase access to education. KMAD also partners with specialist, and where possible local, NGOs to help implement these projects.

Sustainability Investment in building skills and capacity will accompany any projects supported by KMAD to ensure their viability and only those initiatives with strong potential for sustainability are supported. Equality All people and parts of the community have the same rights and are treated equally. KMAD particularly promotes the involvement of women in all activities to achieve this aim. Efficiency KMAD aims to maximise the local benefits of resources, leveraging the Mine’s infrastructure rather than setting up parallel systems and evaluation processes to measure improvement and effectiveness. Integrity, honesty, and transparency KMAD is open about the way it allocates and uses resources and its dealings with all its partners and stakeholders. KMAD’S VISION & MISSION KMAD aims to be a catalyst for positive social and economic change in the host communities of Kenmare’s operations.

KMAD immediately provided funds to respond to the emergency and repaired the four damaged schools and Topuito Health Centre. Seven months after the storm, KMAD handed over the Mititicoma health centre with all the repairs completed. The Director of Health, Mr. Narciso Sandulane, highlighted the impact of the devastation throughout the province of Nampula and in Topuito, and how KMAD’s extensive support had played a critical role in helping health services recover. 9 KMAD Annual Report 2022 10 KMAD Annual Report 2022 2022 ACTIVITIES LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT KMAD is committed to creating employment opportunities for local people that deliver sustainable economic growth, while not harming the environment. This includes supporting income-generating initiatives such as poultry farms, sewing projects, and community shops. KMAD also supports capacity development, for example transferring new skills and knowledge to local farmers to help them increase the agricultural productivity of their land. The sustainability of proposed businesses is assessed by a forum of local leaders and KMAD representatives. KMAD also funds business projects to build the capacity of local suppliers to supply the Mine. This allows host communities to maximise the economic opportunities that arise from the presence of the Mine. Both types of business funding include training in commerce and management for the business owners, as well as technical skills, where required. Continuous monitoring and support are provided even after the loan has been repaid. In 2022, KMAD provided 4.8 million Mts ($76,000) in interest-free loans to 23 new micro-businesses across the Namalope, Pilivili and Mpaco areas (out of a total of 191 proposals received) including two projects from 2021 and three projects for vulnerable families. The total number of income generating projects now supported by KMAD is 89, with an additional five livelihood projects for Vulnerable People, who are not obliged to pay back the loan. These generated revenues of over 42 million Mts ($650,000) during the year. providing employment or income to 341 people. The additional five projects for VPs provided incomes to 20 people. The Namalope funded projects ranged from grocery and hardware shops to warehousing, mobile banking and laundry businesses. KMAD recognises that small businesses can face challenges from increased competition or poor management, and this can impact their ability to repay their loans. 2022 ACTIVITIES | LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED The appendix sets out a full list of projects funded in Namalope and Pilivili, the value of loans provided, and their revenues to date. Native seeds in Topuito Machado Seleman Muhante, a married 28-year-old from Mecane in Moma District received financing from KMAD for a project to produce seedlings of native species. Unable to find a job after completing his training in agricultural extension and development at the Ribaue Agrarian Institute, in 2018 Machado came to Topuito looking for opportunities. He knew no one in Topuito and this was his first trip away from home, but he secured a six-month professional internship at Kenmare. This gave him the opportunity to learn about soil preparation, filling and arranging pots and mechanical seed treatment. Machado learned that KMAD was financing new groups to produce seedlings and decided to form a group of 11 young people from the local community. The group was given training in seedling production from the Rehabilitation department in coordination with the Institute of Agrarian Research, as well as in business management. In 2020, they received financing of 59,925 Mts to fund the construction of a greenhouse to start their seedling production. There were some challenges at the beginning and some of the group left but after six months Machado succeeded in producing 2100 plants, which earned the group 157,500 Mts. The Topuito youth nursery now delivers on average 4,000-6,000 seedlings/month in high season earning 450,000 Mts /month and 1,000-2,000 seedlings per month in the low season, earning 150,000 Mts /month. Machado is still producing and selling the native seedlings to Kenmare and has fully refunded the initial loan. The native seedlings project has transformed his life, enabling him to build two houses and support both himself and his wife to enrol in university courses. Mualadi fish conservation project Albertina João Amade, is married and 30 years old and from Mualadi, and is a member of the local fishing association. Mualadi, despite being one of the smallest villages in Pilivili, is in an area rich in marine resources with great potential for fishing businesses. Like most residents, Albertina grew up in a family of fishermen. For many years they faced difficulties in preserving shellfish because the neighbourhood had no energy and they had to smoke or dry the products. In the rainy season the seafood did not dry properly, and it ended up going off and they lost income. In 2021, KMAD invested Mts 2,125,465 in the construction of a fish conservation and processing establishment in Mualadi, which is managed by the Fishermen’s Association. A solar panel system powers the freezers that preserve the shellfish. This project means Albertina’s family manages to store 100-150kg of shellfish/month in high season generating an estimated income of between 18,000-27,000 Mts and 20-50kg/month in low season earning an estimated additional 3,600-9,000 Mts /month. This income has improved her family’s diet, housing conditions and pays for school supplies for three cousins and a brother-in-law. 11 12 KMAD Annual Report 2022KMAD Annual Report 2022 2022 ACTIVITIES | LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED 2022 ACTIVITIES | LIVELIHOODS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED Conservation Agriculture Pilivili Most resettled families have not started using their replacement land despite it being available for planting. Local authorities and KMAD team cross checked and confirmed that 77 out of 850 farmers that have received replacement farmland are currently using the land and technical assistance is being provided. KMAD continued to support farmers by teaching them Conservation Agriculture (CA) methods to improve agricultural productivity. CA methods include mulching of biomass to create a fertiliser and protection from the natural elements, intercropping, improved diversity of crop types, crop spacing, and not clearing land through burning. They are also provided with good quality seeds to support the growth of resilient and healthy crops and are taught techniques to improve future quality. The contract with AENA (a Mozambican NGO) was renewed and slightly modified with the objective of continuing to support the farmers with production improvements in the rehabilitation areas and providing access to markets starting from December 2022 to October 2024. Other agriculture and livelihood projects Vegetable project In 2022, local farmers continued providing vegetables and fruit for Kenmare’s kitchen. They produced 18,043kg (2021: 24,250 kg) of vegetables and fruit in a total area of 11 hectares (2021: 21.5 hectares). Of these 5,326 kg were sold to the Mine kitchen and 12,717 kg went to the local market. The farmers earned 1 million Mts ($16,000) a reduction of 29% compared with 2021, this was due to crop damage from Storm Ana in January 2022. In addition, fruit suppliers who are not direct KMAD beneficiaries supplied the Mine kitchen with a total of 18,273 kg of various vegetables and fruit, earning 1.1 million Mts ($17,000) a reduction of 2% compared with 2021. This reduction was due to a fall in orders being placed by the camp catering company, IFS. Vulnerable people Across the Namalope, Pilivili and Mpaco areas, KMAD works to enable the inclusion of vulnerable people in the company’s community development projects. KMAD defines vulnerability as “people who by virtue of gender, ethnicity, age, physical or mental disability, economic disadvantage or social status may be more diversely affected by displacement than others and who may be limited in their ability to claim or take advantage of resettlement assistance and related development benefits.” KMAD recognises that disadvantaged groups and individuals may find it more difficult to participate in formal engagement activities and benefit from the opportunities arising from the presence of Kenmare’s mining operations. KMAD has supported nearly 300 vulnerable people in the Namalope area since 2007. Projects focus on income generation, support for a grocery shop, and support for elderly and female- headed households through donations of chickens, participation in KMAD’s CA programme, and vegetable cultivation in nursery plots. Support for vulnerable people in Namalope Key projects in 2022 were fruit and vegetable production including the distribution of groundnuts, pigeon pea, and cowpea seeds to 166 vulnerable individuals, scholarships for dependents of vulnerable families and quarterly mobile check-ups for elderly and physically challenged people. Support for vulnerable people in Pilivili and Mpaco Support was provided for vulnerable people in Pilivili and Mpaco to produce vegetables, raise goats, as well as through finance for sewing and bakery projects. Conservation Agriculture farmer Cristina Santos is a married small-scale farmer with 10 children from Mulimuni. Like most Mozambicans, Cristina earns her living from traditional agriculture. She participated in the conservation agriculture programme for the first time in 2014 and then took on the role of programme facilitator, raising awareness and motivating other producers. She started using the techniques in an area of 0.25 hectares and gradually increased this to 2.5 hectares for the 2021-2022 season. She now produces 12,500-15,000 kg of cassava, 500 to 900 kg of peanuts and 300 to 700 kg of beans. Half of the production is used by her family and the other half is sold to help buy school supplies, household products and farming materials and to pay five seasonal employees. 12,500 to 15,000 kg of cassava 500 to 900 kg of peanuts 300 to 700 kg of beans 13 14 KMAD Annual Report 2022KMAD Annual Report 2022 2022 ACTIVITIES - CONTINUED 2022 ACTIVITIES | HEALTH DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED HEALTHCARE DEVELOPMENT KMAD believes that ensuring healthy lives and promoting wellbeing at all ages is essential to sustainable development. As a result, KMAD provides funding for healthcare infrastructure improvements, such as building medical centres and pharmacies, donating ambulances, capacity development of medical staff, and community health awareness initiatives. Community health centre in Mititicoma The community health centre in Mititicoma, built and equipped by KMAD, has been in operation since 2013 and it serves people living close to Kenmare’s Namalope operations. In 2022 KMAD equipped the new laboratory and delivered it officially to communities and local authorities. In January, Storm Ana hit Topuito destroying the roof of the health centre and KMAD financed the repairs and health services are now back to normal. As part of the Namalope West resettlement plan the construction of a simplified maternity facility in Cotocuane was agreed with host communities. Work has started and is expected to be completed in 2023. In 2022 just over 21,000 people attended the clinic’s outpatient department, 57% of whom were women. This represented a 18% decrease in patient appointments compared to 2021. Of these consultations, over 8,500 were paediatric consultations, just over half of which were for girls. Malaria continued to be the primary reason for people seeking medical care. As set out below while there was a 57% decrease in total number of tests, there was an overall reduction in the number of people diagnosed with malaria compared with 2021. Malaria Men Women Male children Female children TOTAL Total number tested Positive 2021 5,191 5,307 3,847 4,414 2022 2021 2022 2,966 3,132 (58%) 1,720 (58%) 3,588 2,688 (51%) 2,034 (57%) 3,513 2,033 (53%) 1,563 (44%) 3,513 2,525 (58%) 1,949 (55%) 18,759 18,759 10,378 (55%) 7,266 (54%) Fever and diarrhoea were the most common illnesses people sought medical attention for, with just over 2,100 adults and children with fever and almost 500 patients with diarrhoea. There were no diagnoses of cholera and four cases of tuberculosis in 2022. Fewer tests for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV were undertaken compared with 2021. Of the patients who tested positive for HIV, 339 patients started treatment with antiretroviral therapy, 52% of whom were women. Men tested (% positive) Women tested (% positive) Diseases tested 2021 2022 2021 2022 STDs HIV 153 (88%) 62 (76%) 105 (87%) 58 (25%) 137 (26%) 138 (31%) 186 (34%) 176(45%) Mother and child healthcare services The services delivered by the mother and child healthcare services included pre- natal consultations, family support, births, and midwife educational sessions in both the clinics and the villages. Women giving birth in the clinic decreased marginally in 2022 (682 vs 717). The number of home births increased to seven in 2022, compared to five in 2021. Community health awareness The community health programme promotes awareness of health issues, hygiene, and sanitation, primarily through group discussions. The main topics covered related to COVID-19 prevention, including the correct use of masks and improving sanitation; reducing the risk of diarrhoea; reducing the risk of contracting HIV and AIDS; and malaria prevention, with a focus on the correct use of mosquito nets and the need to follow the full malaria treatments prescribed. Other topics covered included tuberculosis, maternal health, nutrition and family planning. In 2022, community volunteers and midwives conducted 31 (2021: 167) sessions in the health clinic and 2030 (2021:800) sessions in the villages. The number sessions in the clinic reduced because the health centre was hit by Storm Ana. 1407 community members attended community health sessions in the clinic and 23,806 attended sessions held in the villages. Pilivili health centre KMAD handed over the fully completed and equipped health centre in 2021 so 2022 was its first full year of operation. The centre includes a maternity facility, a main treatment unit, two sizable houses for medical staff, and water and solar power supply for each building. In 2022 over 35,000 people attended the clinic’s outpatient department, 59% of whom were women. Of these consultations, over 12,758 were paediatric consultations (6,449 female).

Staff professional development and funding KMAD financed 27 nurses on nursing courses in 2019. Of these, 17 were employed by the district health authorities. In an MoU with the Government KMAD agreed to support the salaries of these nurses to October 2022 and ten were transferred to the Government’s payroll by year end and the remaining five will continue to be supported until the end of Q1 2023. Mother and child healthcare services The services delivered by the mother and child healthcare services were as follows: Mother and child healthcare services Total patients received Patients who attended pre-natal consultations Patients who received family planning support Number of births in the clinic 2022 5,127 2,030 1,875 1,215 Community health awareness Based on the MoU signed with health authorities five health volunteers are working on Pilivili deposit and they provided 600 sensitisation campaigns (303 in the community and 297 in the health centre). A total of 13,834 (7,189 females) attended and themes were: Covid prevention, malaria and diarrhoea prevention treatment, sanitation, family planning, importance of pre-consultation, child vaccination calendar, birth related risks in the communities, HIV-AIDS prevention and treatment. 15 16 KMAD Annual Report 2022KMAD Annual Report 2022 2022 ACTIVITIES - CONTINUED 2022 ACTIVITIES | HEALTH DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT School construction: Pilivili In 2022, KMAD financed the construction of new school blocks in Pilivili, Muolone and Epuire. KMAD believes that ensuring all children have a good quality education is the foundation for sustainable development. As a result, KMAD funds the building of classrooms and other educational infrastructure, supports capacity development of teachers, and sponsors scholarships for further education that would not otherwise be accessible within the local area. Quality of primary education support KMAD contracted a Mozambican NGO, Facilidade, to undertake a programme to improve the quality of primary education in the locality. Facilidade is based in Nampula with experience in education methodologies to improve the quality of learning in schools. The programme was restarted after being suspended in 2020 due to COVID and 760 (407 females) Grade 3 pupils attended. All seven primary schools in Topuito locality were part of the programme which combines creative, interactive and game-like activities with the objective of successful and rapid progress in reading, counting and calculation skills. The programme puts children into groups based on an assessment of their skills. Facilidade’s first assessment showed that of the 760 Grade 3 students participating in the programme only 6.6% were able to read letters, words, simple paragraphs, and stories and on numeracy 29.6% recognised numbers of one or two algorithms and were able to complete addition, subtraction and multiplication. By the end of the year the students were reassessed and showed the following improvements: Literacy: 6.6% increased to 33.6% Numeracy: 29.6% increased to 47.1% School construction: Pilivili In 2022, KMAD financed the construction of new school blocks in Pilivili, Muolone and Epuire. School construction: Namalope The additional new school block in Mititicoma was completed, equipped with 105 benches, and handed over to communities and authorities. In Cabula, Mititicoma, Topuito and Nahocolo the old school blocks lost their roof during Storm Ana in January 2022. KMAD repaired the damage, and the schools are back to their normal operation. Construction of phase three of the Namalope technical school was initiated. As part of Namalope West resettlement plan the construction of school block in Cotocuane was agreed with host communities. The construction has started and is expected to be delivered in 2023. In 2022, KMAD provided school materials to almost 6,000 pupils and 78 teachers in the Namalope area, a 13% increase over 2021. Pilivili primary school Santos Marcelino Praça is a teacher and has been the Director of the Primary School of Pilivili since 2021. In the past, students had to travel from Epuire to study at the Pilivili Primary School, which is 3km away. Due to population growth, the community built two rooms from locally available material (wattle and daub) and attached them to the primary school in Pilivili so their children could study here. In 2021 these classrooms were categorised as the Epuire Primary School. In accordance with the social projects agreed in the Pilivili Resettlement Plan, KMAD built a school block consisting of three classrooms, administration and toilets and desks for pupils and teachers and a meeting table for planning. Santos Marcelino explained the benefits the improvements have brought. “The new block of classrooms brought comfort to students and teachers. In the old room, about 68 children sat on the floor and in winter we suffered from the lack of doors and windows. The teachers did not have their own room and the chalkboards were improvised. Without toilets, the children had to return to their homes to relieve themselves and the teachers always relied on the goodwill of neighbouring houses since they do not live in Epuire. The new reality has changed the school life of my students and teachers. We have three equipped rooms that comfortably fit 70 students/ room sitting at desks, not counting the administrative part where teachers have their own room and not only that, the Directorate and the pedagogical department have individual work offices, a place for files as well as a student office. The restrooms have improved attendance as no one has to go home to access the restroom. Before, we had ten dropouts per year, but with this new block we did not have more than five students drop out in this first year which makes me believe that the new block is an incentive for teachers and especially for students.” 17 18 KMAD Annual Report 2022KMAD Annual Report 2022 2022 ACTIVITIES | EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED Scholarships Namalope In 2022 KMAD supported 135 existing scholarships and 78 (28 for vulnerable people) new scholarships for secondary school students. The 143 students at Topuito Secondary School had a 93% pass rate, with the remainder either dropping out or failing the year. Of the 42 students at the Moma Secondary School, there was a 95% pass rate with the remainder failing the year. From the 28 dependants of vulnerable families there was a 79% pass rate, one passed away, two failed and three dropped out. In 2022, five students (two female) were selected for full university scholarships and five for partial scholarships. KMAD is currently sponsoring a total of 15 students at university. Pilivili and Mpago In Pilivili and Mpaco 22 students (12 females) were selected for the secondary school scholarship, and they achieved a 100% pass rate. Technical school KMAD also supports skills transfer through vocational training, primarily through the Topuito Technical Training College. KMAD funded its construction and equipment between 2018-2020. The College is open to all, and students can obtain a Vocational Certificate-Level 5 qualification in mechanical construction, electrics and industrial electronics, or civil WATER AND SANITATION KMAD is working as a catalyst to help solve these issues and find sustainable solutions. The local community Water Committees need to grow their capacity to manage charging community members for water consumption to finance the maintenance of water infrastructure. An extension to the water system in Tibane was initiated in 2021 was completed and delivered to community and authorities. In 2021 KMAD engaged SNV to review the water and sanitation infrastructure in Topuito. Based on the findings of their report KMAD contracted AMASI, an NGO based in Nampula with over ten years’ experience implementing water and sanitation programs in Mozambique with a special focus in Nampula province, to carry out the recommendations in 2023. Water is a new strategic pillar in the 2022-2024 KMAD Strategic Plan and several programmes and initiatives aim to make progress with access to clean water. Since its inception, KMAD has drilled 30 boreholes, supplying clean water to approximately 24,000 people. Previously, local women and children had to travel long distances to collect water from local rivers. Sanitation is another important focus and KMAD has been working with the Mine’s host communities and local authorities to overcome sanitation- related issues during recent years. One issue is the quality of water from some boreholes, which tests have shown to contain levels of nitrates, faecal coliforms, and iron levels above the World Health Organisation (WHO) recommended limits for human consumption. This is connected to the lack of latrines and the sanitation habits of local communities, a situation compounded by the increased population influx over the last 10 years and lack of capacity among the local authorities to manage the water resources. construction. In 2022, its fourth year of operation, the College had a total of 244 students enrolled, 34% of whom were girls. The construction of a male boarding school, soccer field and two houses for technical school teachers was started in 2022 and is expected to be delivered in the first term of 2023. Sports and culture Namalope Soccer equipment was distributed to 26 teams (12 female) that are involved in the local championship. Prizes were given to the first three male and female winners. Support was also given to the Larde District soccer championship along with prizes for cultural and sports prizes at secondary school level. Soccer uninforms and socks were distributed to five (four from Pilivili and one from Mpuitine) teams that are involved in the district championship. Tibane water access Matina Assane Mussevele, 38 years old, is the mother of six children and was born and raised in Tibane town, Topuito locality. Matina says that before the installation of the water supply system in the neighbourhood of Tibane Expansion, she travelled approximately 1.5 km every day to draw water from the traditional well located near the swamp. The wait at the traditional well could be more than five hours due to the queue or if the well was recharging slowly. She needed a lot of water for her daily tasks, but only managed to carry a maximum of 40 litres per day at times when the well had water. It was cloudy, smelly and in the rainy season it caused illnesses such as diarrhoea and stomach problems. Now the neighbourhood has a water supply system built by KMAD, which means Matina does not need to be far from the house for long periods of time as there is clean and healthy water at the agreed hours from 6-8 am and from 3-6 pm. Matina belongs to the System Management Committee group and, among other tasks, this body requires the community to pay a monthly fee of 30.00 Mts per family. This is used for the purchase of Credilec (electricity), system maintenance and the remainder is saved by the committee. “On behalf of the entire community of Tibane Expansion, I am immensely grateful to KMAD for having minimised the suffering, especially for women, caused by the previous problem of time, distance, quantity and quality of water. I hope that KMAD continues investing in high impact projects such as this one.” Pilivili The Mpuitine borehole is still to be finalised. The assessment shows that the best option is to transform the wells into a small water system. The drawings were approved by the local authorities and the project is being executed. The Nampeia borehole was finalised and delivered to community and authorities. The Pilivili water system is essentially complete, and delivery is scheduled for January 2023. The contract for a water system in Muolone has been finalised. The rehabilitation of Epuire water system was not completed because communities have changed their request to manual boreholes. A new contractor is conducting geophysical studies for the drilling of these boreholes. 19 20 KMAD Annual Report 2022KMAD Annual Report 2022 2022 ACTIVITIES | EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUED SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 Sources of funds 2021 2022 Kenmare Resources plc and other subsidiary companies 2,296,975 2,976,105 Third Party Donations Deposit interest TOTAL Uses of funds Health Infrastructure Projects Pilivili RAP - School Support Employee Salary Costs Technical Training Centre Small Business Support Water & Sanitation Projects Nam West - Other infrastructure Pilivili RAP - Sanitation Primary Schools Infrastructure Local Governance Scholarships Nam West - Health Infrastructure Agricultural Prod & Diversif Pilivili RAP - Governance Nam West - Education Infrastructure Technical Assistance Office Supplies Travel & Accomodation Educational Capacity Building Pilivili RAP - Projects Sports & Social Nam West - Income Generating Projects Vehicle Running Costs Community Radio Fuel Costs Storm Ana Vulnerable groups Miscellaneous Costs Pilivili RAP - Vulnerable 21 3,440 407 54,902 495 2,300,822 3,031,503 2021 141,220 217,938 211,650 82,869 95,776 57,411 - 213 150,557 19,316 52,324 - 152,437 55,893 - 49,474 12,579 24,020 11,862 35,051 23,474 - 9,787 6,009 4,225 - 20,970 4,406 1,068 2022 705,621 505,849 292,805 278,236 98,067 87,007 79,259 245,867 39,776 43,386 46,833 93,162 76,211 33,309 95,105 34,620 23,400 34,785 112,710 22,567 29,341 8,652 7,304 7,036 7,994 71,490 4,173 10,273 2,878 Educational Support Projects Nam West - Land Access Projects Pilivili Road Rap - Schools Pilivili RAP - Health Centre Pilivili RAP Expenditures Pilivili RAP - Agriculture Pilivili RAP -Scholarships Communication Pilivili Road RAP Other Community Projects Poultry Project Eggs Poultry Project Broliers Horticultural Project Abattoir Project Sewing Project Bee Keeping Project Cashew Support Project Fishing Project Cyclone Donations Livestock and Fishing Projects FMO Sponsored Health Costs Staff training Covid-19 Pilivili Road RAP-Other costs Pilivili RAP - Other Costs Nam West - Water and Sanitation Projects Other Employee Costs Pilivili Road RAP - Projects TOTAL Changes of funds Surplus/(deficit) of funds for the period Bank Charges Foreign Exchange (Gain)/Loss TOTAL 1,113 - 285,664 261,139 1,826 220 - 972 2,049 - 47 -16 - - - - - - - - - 980 344,197 - 548 - - 26,790 2,366,061 2021 -65,239 743 -21,512 -44,470 17,575 182,370 55,466 -773 1,395 465 1,663 132 55 8 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 47 - -1,438 3,354,682 2022 -323,180 1,496 -1,323 -323,353 22 KMAD Annual Report 2022KMAD Annual Report 2022 CHALLENGES FACED DURING 2022 ACTIVITY PLAN The main challenges were principally related to difficulties in shortlisting reliable contractors who can execute water system projects, causing delays in their implementation. Storm Ana and cyclone Gombe affected farmers’ production, and destroyed health and education infrastructure as well as the access from Nampula to the site causing delays to the construction work as most materials come from there. APPENDIX Summary of activities implemented The following table provides detailed information regarding the implementation status of KMAD’s community projects during 2022. 1. Livelihoods and economic development 1.1 Funding income generating projects CHALLENGES FACED DURING 2022 ACTIVITY PLAN - CONTINUED Six businesses completed their loan repayments from previous years, namely: two community nurseries in Topuito, one community nursery in Mititicoma, one in Mulimuni B and one in Larde as well as the Mititicoma hardware store. Two businesses from previous years closed namely: goat selling and second-hand clothing from Nataka (both due to bad management). This led to the writing off 216,000 Mts ($3,400) in loans. Non-operational small business owners, although having closed the businesses that were financed, are still making their loan repayments (Naholoco carpentry, eggs, hardware store (concluded), and Topuito fish and prawns processing). Outstanding loans with active businesses at the end of 2022 stood at 13 million Mts. Summary of economic development and livelihoods projects In general, the small businesses performed well, but there were several Covid related challenges. Broiler project The poultry projects performed well compared to previous years as chicks were provided on time by the supplier and as the growth of small bars and restaurants is increasing the demand for chickens in Topuito. As a result, the broiler projects (Topuito, Naholoco and Mititicoma) managed to do four planned cycles during the year. In 2022 Topuito sold 3,027 chickens yielding a total of 760,000 MTs (US$12,000), Naholoco 1,095 yielding 375,000 ($5,900) Mititicoma sold 1,806 earning 608,000MTs, (US$ 9600). representing a 492% increase compared with broiler project incomes in 2021. Nataka have made a request to change the business as after losing a large portion of chicks during transportation in 2021, meaning the owner was not able to continue the business. The request to change the business under assessment. Sewing project The sewing projects are still the most stable of the projects and in 2022 the groups produced a total of 87,102 items of which 376 were school uniforms for KMAD scholars and the remainder were calico bags and embroidered t-shirts yielding 3.7 million Mts ($58,000), a reduction of 9% compared with 2021 (2021: 4 million Mts ($63,000) Shops and other income generating projects The performance of the grocery shops varied from village to village but in general they are performing well. The bakery in Mititicomais in operation although the refurbishment is still to be finalised. The native seed suppliers are supplying casuarina saplings. The guest house at Mititicomawas fully booked over the year, providing accommodation to Kenmare contractors. Areas / activities Indicators Expected outcome Areas / activities Indicators Expected outcome 1.1.1 Funding 10+2 community income generating projects Nº of businesses funded Nº of beneficiaries New small businesses established. Existing projects operating successfully and independently Outcome and comments: Forms were distributed and 87 project proposals were received. Eight out of 14 projects approved have been financed, namely: • Eggs in Mititicoma The following projects are still being financed: • Isoa projects – Eggs (2020), a grocery shop (2021) and a sea food shop and secondary grocery shop from 2022 have been approved but it was decided to postpone these until after the resettlement of the village was complete (the resettlement took place in November 2022) • A grocery shop and a grocery and domestic items shop in • Laundry from Mtiticoma Topuito • A food shop in Naholoco • A second-hand clothing shop in Cabula • A domestic utensil shop in Nataka • A hens project and shoe shop in Nathuco Two of the chosen projects were not progressed: • Selling of Mpesa (mobile credit) in Nataka because the beneficiary passed away. • Butchery in Naholoco due to false declarations from the beneficiary who claimed that he had premises he could use for the business and this turned out not to be the case. • Vegetable production from Mulimuni The following projects from 2021 were financed: • A second broiler project in Topuito after ascertaining there was sufficient demand • A small seafood shop in Nathuco At the beginning of 2022 there were a total of 10. 9 million Mts in outstanding loans to small businesses. A further 3.7 million Mts ($59,000) was invested in new businesses in 2022, of which 210,000 Mts ($3,300) were provided by the business owners and 3.5 million Mts ($56,000) by KMAD. In total there are 66 operational projects in Namalope directly benefitting a total 283 people (90 women). KMAD received repayments of 1.6 million Mts ($25,000), with 1.4million Mts ($22,000) being for loans from previous years and 194,000 Mts ($3,000) from the 2022 loans. Depending on the terms of the business loan, repayments can be scheduled over a period of between 12 months and three years. 1.1.2 Training on project design in all villages Training sessions held in all 10 villages Well thought out small business proposals received Outcome and comments: Nine villages were trained in designing project proposals and as a result 87 (20 from females) projects were submitted for financing. 1.1.3 Training in small business management for new and refresher for existing projects Nº of beneficiaries Outcome and comments: The training was completed for all 14 projects approved in 2022.

Based on the final report provided by AENA and the detailed audit carried out on the conservation agriculture project, the number of beneficiaries was 507 in an area of 206.9 hectares (verified by a team of KMAD and AENA undertaking field visits). The number of participants is less than reported in 2021 due to a duplication of registrations verified during the auditing by the KMAD and AENA team. Yield measurements for groundnuts, cowpeas and jugo beans crops were carried out in all communities, using 157 farmers as samples (each farmer with two plots with dimensions of 5m*5m corresponding to 50m2). On average the farmers produced 700kg/hectare of groundnut, 567kg/hectare for cowpeas. According to the 2020 Relatório do Inquérito Agrícola Integrado (Integrated Agricultural Survey Report), the average yield of groundnut and cowpea in small farmers is around 619kg/ha and 427kg/ha, respectively. The data shown on the yield in the fields of small farmers in Topuito showed an average increase for peanut and cowpea crops in the order of 13% and 32% respectively compared to standard average small farmer yields. This result is due to the adoption of two principles of conservation agriculture namely: minimum tillage and intercropping/crop rotation. In summary, the 2021/2022 crop production season produced a total of 603,570kgs vs 1,951,443 during last season, which represents a decrease of about 69% due to cyclones Ana and Gombe which destroyed many of the crops planted.

They produced 18,043 (2021: 24,250kg) of vegetables and fruit in a total area of 11 hectares (2021: 21.5 hectares). Of these 5,326.50kg were sold to the mine kitchen and 12,717kg sold to the local market. The farmers earnt a total of 1 million Mts (US$ 16,000) a reduction of 29% compared with 2021. In addition, fruit suppliers who are not direct KMAD beneficiaries supplied the mine kitchen with a total of 18,273 kg of various vegetables and fruits, earning 1.1 million Mts (US$ 17,000) a reduction of 2% compared to 2021. This reduction was due to a fall in orders being placed by the camp catering company, IFS. 1.3 Support to vulnerable groups 1.3.1 Direct support for Female Headed Households (small businesses, vegetables) and Support to elderly and physically challenged groups. Nº of new projects supported Nº of beneficiaries New initiatives commenced/ ongoing support Outcome and comments: 166 vulnerable families were participating in the CA project at year-end. 498 kg of seeds were distributed for the 2021/2022 production season. 22.1 ha was cultivated in CA as a result, 7ha planted with approximately 8,500kg of groundnut and cowpeas. The remaining 15ha was planted with cassava which will only be harvested in 2023. A goat project was identified but families advised they would not able to implement it as the goats would be stolen by neighbouring communities. A business plan for a tailoring project was submitted from Mulimuni but this project has been done in the past and there were no clients with financial capacity to pay for the services so this project will not be financed. The grocery shop in Cabula and Tibane broiler project generated revenues of 420,000 ($6,600 ) with 16,500Mts ($300) paid in salaries and Mzn 204,000 ($3,200 ) profit. Although the Tibane broiler project generated income for eight months it was closed due to bad management. From the Mzn 150.000 invested, Mzn 92,000 was recovered. In 2022 there were registered 411 new births of chickens, 309 deaths, 1,001 were eaten and 53 sold to buy other products needed by the business owner. The balance at the end of the year was 168 hens, which represents a decrease of 84% on 2021. In the beginning of 2022 there was 334 ducks, during the year 119 were born, 32 died and 398 were consumed leaving a balance of 25 ducks 74 vulnerable people, produced in an area of 2.8 hectares. In total 3,600 kg of vegetables were produced in 2022, a 7% decrease compared to 2021. Over 100 orange and tangerine trees were distributed to nine vulnerable families in Natuco and Nataka 1.3.2 Poultry repopulation for 12 families Nº of new projects supported Hens be raised and reproduced/sold Outcome and comments: Government has set a limit on providing technical assistance to large numbers of beneficiaries on the hens’ project. Also the families have not been following the principles sustaining a viable brood of chickens by consuming too many before they could breed. For these reasons KMAD is not increasing the number of beneficiaries in this initiative. Outcome and comments: • 28 are being supported on the secondary school scholarship programme. It was not possible to reach the target because the number of dependents studying at secondary level was low. 1.3.4 Quarterly mobile health clinics Nº of clinics Nº of consultations Improved access to health care Outcome and comments: • Four held. 70 (58 elderly, six physically challenged, six female-headed households) attended each quarter 1.4 Good governance 1.4.1 KMAD monitoring sessions with all stakeholders Nº of sessions organized Nº of people attending the meetings Facilitation of three monitoring meetings per year with SCO, Government and communities undertaken Outcome and comments: Due to the unavailability of authorities two sessions were held and attended by Community Leaders, Provincial MIREME, District Government, SCO and Provincial Assembly.
