## Environmental record

### Technical review identifies tailings-water pathway [wwi_siwisa_mudrush_context]

March-June 2026; presented 3 September 2026 · issuer reported · medium materiality

West Wits’ September 2026 technical review states acidic tailings water passed through unlined surface trenches, creating a potential ingress pathway; its conclusion says geological structures and tailings-dam runoff led to the mud rush. This is an issuer technical explanation, not an environmental enforcement finding.

**Attribution:** Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Siwisa held corporate-affairs and permitting roles; no source assigns her responsibility for the technical water controls.

**Relevance:** Relevant to stakeholder, environmental and permitting oversight; no personal breach is established.

## Litigation and enforcement

### Same-name reference in unrelated Labour Court matter [wwi_siwisa_case_review]

2013-2014 correspondence; judgment 9 May 2017 · documented · low materiality

A 2017 Labour Court judgment names a Tozama Kulati-Siwisa in employer correspondence in a separate unfair-dismissal dispute. The judgment says she did not testify and makes no adverse finding about her; identity match to the West Wits executive is unverified.

**Attribution:** Responsibility unresolved. Court material does not establish identity with the executive and records no misconduct finding against the correspondent.

**Relevance:** Resolves a same-name legal-search lead; must not be treated as an adverse finding about this executive.

## Suitability for the current role

### Corporate affairs and permitting background [wwi_siwisa_fit]

2020-2025 · analyst inference · medium materiality

West Wits’ 2025 annual report says Siwisa joined in 2020 and played a central role in obtaining Qala’s Mining Right and Water Use Licence; it reports a 2025 AAMEG Rising Star Award. BCom/MBA claims in issuer biography are unverified.

**Attribution:** Individual involvement documented. Issuer directly credits her with permit and stakeholder work; it does not quantify her individual contribution or independently verify award/credentials.

**Relevance:** Relevant permitting and stakeholder experience for Head of Corporate Affairs.
