- to be developed as an extension to the current Delf Sand operation is the     
Pienaarspoort Silica Quartz mine. This is a hard rock silica quartz mining      
project with the beneficiation of a high grade silica aggregate and sand for    
the iron and steel, glass, filter and leisure industries; and                   
- corporate head office, which is responsible for strategy, risk management and 
administration. It is also the provider of shared services across common        
business functions such as finance, IT and human resources, centralised         
procurement, capital expenditure, growth and replacement projects.              
Financial review                                                                
Revenue for the period under review was R211.5 million (F2009: R217.8 million), 
profit from continuing operating activities was R34.9 million (F2009: R42.1     
million), a decrease of R7.2 million.                                           
The profit before taxation for continuing operations for the period under       
review, was R61.6 million (F2009: R36.2 million), which included adjustments to 
fair value of R39.1 million. The analysis of turnover and profit before tax on  
a segmented basis is detailed herein.                                           
Cash of R38.6 million (F2009: R57.1 million) was generated by operations, prior 
to net finance cost of R6.9 million (F2009: net finance income R0.2 million)    
and taxation paid of R5.5 million (F2009: R10.7 million), before outflow of     
investments of R30.4 million (F2009: R58.4 million), and outflow of financing   
activities of R24.4 million (F2009: inflow R24.5 million).                      
Capital expenditure of R34.2 million (F2009: R45.6 million) was incurred in the 
year under review, reflecting an ongoing investment by the Group in plant       
infrastructure and development of mineral reserves.                             
Salient capital expenditure items at Lyttelton Dolomite Centurion mine included 
the refurbishment of the primary crusher, the installation and commissioning of 
an additional aggregate sizing plant (Lunar plant) and mine development. At     
Marble Hall capital expenditure included the refurbishment of the primary       
crusher and mine development.                                                   
Delf Sand continued with refurbishment of the older sand driers and began with  
the establishment of its facility in KwaZulu-Natal. Delf Sand incurred capital  
expenditure in furthering the development of the Pienaarspoort Silica Quartz    
mining asset and also in the preparation of the Cullinan mining asset.          
The capital expenditure was made up as follows for the period under review:     
                                                  Reviewed         Audited

Health and Safety                                                               
The Group`s Occupational Health and Safety initiative towards a "Zero Harm"     
philosophy continued to gain momentum with the appointment of a Group Health,   
Safety and Environment Manager.                                                 
An unwavering drive was taken towards improving safety procedures and systems   
on all three mines. Regrettably two lost time injuries occurred, one at         
Infrabric brick plant and the other at Marble Hall mine, however frequency      
rates, which are calculated using the industry standard Lost Time Injury        
Frequency Rate ("LTIFR") per 200 000 hours worked, indicate improvement in      
Health and Safety awareness on all three mines compared to the previous year.   
The current LTIFR for the Group is 0.24.                                        
Lyttelton Dolomite Centurion and Marble Hall mines                              
Lyttelton Dolomite produced 951 022 tons of dolomite from the Lyttelton         
Dolomite Centurion mine during the year under review (F2009: 922 863 tons), an  
increase of 28 159 tons (3.1%). At the Marble Hall mine, production amounted to 
251 379 tons (F2009: 204 999 tons) of limestone, an increase of 46 380 tons     
(22.6%).                                                                        
As part of the pit expansion programme to open up and develop the southern and  
western portions of the Centurion mine, over-burden was removed, totalling 288  
460 tons (F2009: 188 133 tons), which forms part of the pit`s future expansion  
of its mining area. Similarly pit expansion activities at Marble Hall mine,     
resulted in over-burden removal totaling 73 901 tons (F2009: 71 594 tons).      
Lyttelton`s turnover was R133.2 million for the period under review (F2009:     
R116.5 million). Lyttelton`s profit before tax was R20.2 million                
(F2009: R19.1 million), an increase of 5.8%.                                    
The primary crusher at Lyttelton Dolomite Centurion mine required refurbishment 
which was conducted over a three week period and resulted in higher than        
expected repair and maintenance costs. The new aggregate sizing plant (Lunar    
plant) was successfully built and commissioned in February 2010 providing       
additional capacity and flexibility in its operations.                          
The management team has been bolstered by the appointment of a new managing     
director and restructuring of the production team during the last quarter of    
the year. This will result in improved efficiencies and enhanced sales being    
achieved. Due to the demand cycles the sales mix of products tended to be       
inversely correlated as the metallurgical market volumes returned and           
construction aggregate demand flattened.                                        
Delf Sand mine                                                                  
Delf Sand sold 269 330 tons of silica in the period under review (F2009: 337    
130 tons), a reduction of 67 800 tons (20.1%).                                  
Delf Sand`s turnover was R73.8 million (F2009: R90.7 million), and contributed  
R13.9 million (F2009: R22.3 million) to Group profit before tax , a reduction   
of 37.7%.                                                                       
Delf Sand experienced decline in the foundry off-take volumes which fell        
sharply at the beginning of the year and remained depressed for much of the     
year. Overall the sales volume to the foundry market was down by 36% compared   
to F2009. Likewise golf and leisure markets decreased during this period by     
53%. The mine was able to successfully enter the tile adhesive market and has   
become a recognised supplier of quality silica sand. The volume supplied into   
the tile adhesive market has seen a healthy increase of 28% compared to the     
previous year.                                                                  
Refurbishment of the existing sand drying plants were carried out during the    
year ensuring that the Delf Sand operation is able to meet the demands of both  
the foundry and tile adhesive markets, when full market demand is restored.     
As part of the plans to increase Delf Sand`s national footprint, construction   
of the KwaZulu-Natal facility at Tongaat has commenced. This will serve the     
local foundry and tile adhesive markets and will concurrently provide a         
superior service to customers in that region.                                   
Infrabric                                                                       
Infrabic was discontinued as an operation on 30 November 2009. Prior to its     
closing down, Infrabric contributed R9.5 million (F2009: R32.5 million) to      
Group turnover. The decrease in turnover was a result of weak market conditions 
and the planned discontinuation of the operation.                               
The decision to discontinue the operation was approved by the board for the     
following reasons:                                                              
low sales due to the depressed building and construction sectors;               
low levels of available ash dump supply at the operations site in Kempton       
Park; and                                                                       
expected high future rental increases.                                          
As a result of the discontinuation of the brick plant, goodwill was impaired by 
R16.9 million and PPE was impaired by R6.0 million.                             
Mining assets, mining licenses and mineral reserves                             
New order mining rights have been granted and executed for the alluvial Delf    
Sand mine and the Pienaarspoort Silica Quartz mine, which includes the alluvial 
Pienaarspoort deposit. Currently all the mining rights are in the process of    
being registered.                                                               
The Lyttelton Dolomite Centurion and Marble Hall mines new order mining right   
conversion applications were submitted to the DMR before the May 2009 deadline. 
New order prospecting right applications have been submitted in respect of the  
Cullinan property and the southern extensions to the existing Marble Hall mine. 
A small scale mining permit was granted and executed for a portion of the farm  
bordering the Cullinan property. The permit is in the process of being          
registered.                                                                     
Further drilling of the Delf S and ore body is currently being undertaken and   
an increase in the reserve is anticipated.                                      
Outlook - Infrasors Group                                                       
The products and services supplied by the Infrasors Group broadly form part of  
the industrial minerals supply chain and are directly and immediately affected  
by overall demand in the base minerals and manufacturing economy. Consequently  
Infrasors was directly and immediately affected by the demand slump which       
manifested in F2009 and continued in F2010. Infrasors is equally                
well-positioned to respond to the anticipated gradual upturn expected.          
The anticipated end of the recession in the South African economy and the       
lessening of global financial instability have resulted in the demand for       
Infrasors products beginning to increase. The latter is particularly noticeable 
with key clients in base metals industrial applications.                        
Capital expenditure projects and plant refurbishments have been designed to     
expand production and reduce unit costs per ton mined and beneficiated at       
Lyttelton Dolomite and Delf Sand. These have been implemented enabling greater  
tonnage throughput per month once the economic recovery takes off.              
Outlook - Lyttelton Dolomite                                                    
Lyttelton Dolomite Centurion mine - due to the management restructuring and the 
commissioning of the new Lunar aggregate plant - the mine is well-positioned to 
increase throughput and to focus on driving down unit costs. The mine has seen  
a slow recovery of demand for its metallurgical sales after the slowdown in     
off-take from the steel industries during F2009. Recent high sales of           
construction aggregate due to infrastructural development is anticipated to     
taper off. Powder markets remain liquid with high levels of orders received.    
Marble Hall mine - operations continued efficiently at the mine. Sales have     
been increasing steadily with higher off-take for metallurgical grade aggregate 
having been secured for the year ahead and powder sales continue to have a      
positive outlook . The mine is well-positioned to supply product utilised in    
clean air initiatives with regard to power generation.                          
Outlook - Delf Sand                                                             
Delf Sand mine - a slow increase in foundry volumes has been experienced within 
its core clients.                                                               
This trend is expected to continue and strengthen in the year ahead. The mine   
is working closely with its tile adhesive customers to ensure that their        
capacity and quality needs are met in this relatively new market. Volume        
off-take in this sector is expected to remain steady for the year ahead.        
Delf Tongaat - the new processing and distribution facility in KwaZulu-Natal    
will play a key role in servicing the KwaZulu-Natal foundry and tile adhesive   
sectors as it gains market share. This is in line with Delf Sand`s initiative   
to expand its footprint to cover national silica markets.                       
Pienaarspoort Silica Quartz mine - with the mining licence having been granted  
and executed, initial work will go into the bulk sample and securing sufficient 
off-take agreements. Electrical supply of 1MVA to the mine is in the process of 
being commissioned. Upon successful implementation of the mine plan, the        
crushing and screening plant will be established.

3. Investment property adjustments                                              
It is the intention of the Group to establish a township development and sell   
off the land which has been classified as Investment property for capital       
profits. The property was previously classified as - Land within the Group`s    
statement of financial position, and was within the mining area.                
Infrasors, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Delf Sand (Proprietary) Limited  
("Delf"), is the owner of Portion 55 of the Farm Pienaarspoort 339 JR ("P.55"), 
measuring in extent some 501 hectares ("the property").                         
Delf historically mined alluvial silica on the property and has explored and    
established the mining area for the proposed Pienaarspoort Silica Quartz        
crushing operation in the north eastern portion of the property. Alluvial       
silica mining operations on the southern eastern portion of the property began  
winding down in October 2009.                                                   
Consequently, with effect from 1 November 2009, this portion of land was        
transferred from PPE Land used for mining purposes to PPE: Land                 
At 1 November 2009 the land was independently valued at R17.5 million resulting 
in a gross revaluation of R7.2 million (less deferred tax of R1.0 million       
resulting in a net revaluation of R6.2 million) on the historic cost of R10.4   
million which was transferred to a revaluation reserve in anticipation of the   
transfer of land from PPE to Investment properties.                             
Subsequently, the Infrasors board has commissioned a town planning feasibility  
study by Hunter Theron Inc (Town and Regional Planners) with a view to          
establishing a township on the property. The purpose of the study was to        
ascertain if it is feasible to establish a township.                            
The township establishment process consists of three consecutive phases, these  
being:                                                                          
Phase I - assessment phase;                                                     
Phase II - preparation of the township development framework plan; and          
Phase III - township establishment process.                                     
Phase I has been completed and the consolidated findings of the town planners,  
together with other consultants (land surveyors, conveyancers, geologists,      
electrical engineer, civil engineer, traffic engineer and environmentalist)     
have been submitted to Infrasors and are summarised below.

General                                                                         
The aforesaid is a theoretical calculation and should be regarded as such.      
Final calculations can only be made once a detailed layout plan has been        
compiled. Various aspects can influence the potential of the study and          
therefore further detailed studies are required in this regard to accurately    
determine the potential of the site. Pursuant to the Phase I assessment phase   
of the "Township Establishment Feasibility Study", Infrasors appointed an       
independent valuator to provide a market valuation of the property, based on a  
"willing, able and informed seller and willing, able and informed buyer" market 
value methodology.                                                              
The independent valuation of P.55 at 28 February 2010, taking into account the  
land suitable for development based on a willing, able and informed buyer and a 
willing, able and informed seller in an arm`s length negotiation, amounts to    
R56.8 million which results in a fair value adjustment of R39.1 million.

Infrabric (Proprietary) Limited ("Infrabric"), ceased operations in November    
2009 due to the depletion of the ash dump supply used in the production of      
bricks at the operation`s location and the downturn in the brick market,        
resulting in the operation becoming no longer viable. Consequently Infrabric`s  
goodwill has been impaired by R16.9 million, and its plant and equipment, which 
include the brick plants and mobile equipment, and has been impaired by R6.0    
million.
