NORTHAM COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT
The board and management of Northam Platinum Limited (Northam) has noted
the contents of an announcement issued today by Mvelaphanda Resources Limited
(Mvela Resources) which alludes, inter alia, to subscribing for its rights in
the event of a Northam rights issue, and the subsequent unbundling of its
holding in Northam to its shareholders.
In reacting to the announcement by Mvela Resources today, Northam CEO Glyn
Lewis said: "This announcement signals a positive outcome for Northam
shareholders, as we gain further certainty in terms of the financing options
available to us for the development of the Booysendal project. We have made
significant progress with the feasibility study, which is expected to be
completed by the end of September this year. We remain optimistic that
Booysendal is the most promising new project currently being planned in South
Africa; in addition our planning has the built-in flexibility to allow
incremental production build-up to meet market demand."
Lewis noted the resignation of outgoing Mvela Resources CEO Pine Pienaar
from the Northam board, and paid tribute to Pienaar`s contribution to Northam,
and in particular, in securing the Booysendal project for the group.
