1.
We refer to the Asset Sale and Share Subscription Agreement between Mineral

in this letter have the meaning given to them in the Agreement.

2.
As you are aware, under the Agreement the Conditions Precedent Date is 14 June
2019, and, as all the Conditions have not yet been satisfied, the parties have
agreed in lieu of one or other of the Buyer or Seller giving notice to the other
to extend the Conditions Precedent Date to 15 December 2019, to do so by
agreement under this letter.

3.
Accordingly, with effect on and from the date of execution of this letter, the
parties agree the Agreement is amended by:

(a)
deleting clause 2.3;

(b)
in clause 2.6(a)(ii), deleting the words 'Final Conditions Precedent Date' and
replacing them with the words 'Conditions Precedent Date';

(c)
deleting the definition of 'Conditions Precedent Date' in Schedule 1 and
replacing it with the following:

'Conditions Precedent Date means 15 December 2019 or such other date as the
parties may agree in writing.'; and

(d)
deleting the definition of 'Final Conditions Precedent Date' in Schedule 1.

4.
The parties agree that the Agreement:

(a)
will be read and constructed subject to this letter; and

(b)
except as amended in this letter, the Agreement continues in full force and
effect.

5.
The parties acknowledge that:

(a)
the terms of this letter effect an amendment to the Agreement in accordance with
the requirements of clause 27.6 of the Agreement; and

(b)
the amendments to the Agreement in accordance with this letter result in a
variation of the Agreement and not a cancellation, termination or replacement of
the Agreement.

6.
This letter may be executed in counterparts. All executed counterparts
constitute one document.
