Resumption of Mining Operations at Marikana Platinum Mine
Aquarius Platinum Limited wishes to advise that production has resumed at the
Marikana Platinum Mine following the unprotected industrial action by employees
of the underground contractor Murray & Roberts Cementation (MRC).
On Friday, 21 December 2007, MRC reported that employees had signed on at
Marikana Mine and that production commenced with the morning shift.
As a result of the temporary shutdown, production losses are estimated to be
3,000 PGM (4E) ounces (Attributable to Aquarius 1,500 PGM ounces). It is not
expected that these ounces will be made up during the quarter.
