4. RESTATEMENT OF 30 SEPTEMBER 2009 RESULTS                                     
As a result of an inadvertent accounting error during the quarter ended 30      
September 2009, other income was overstated by $3.9 million. Loans and          
borrowings at 30 September 2009 were understated by $4.1 million as a result of 
the error. The restated loss for the nine months ended 30 September 2009 is     
$33.3 million compared to $29.4 million as previously reported (for the three   
months ended 30 September 2009, the restated loss is $18.7 million compared to  
the $14.9 million as previously reported).                                      
In addition to the restatement of the loss for the three and nine months ended  
30 September 2009, basic and diluted loss per share have also been restated for 
a change in the weighted average number of shares due to an inadvertent error in
the calculation of the weighted average number of shares. The restated basic and
diluted loss per share for the nine months ended 30 September 2009 is $0.10     
compared to $0.16 as previously reported (for the three months ended 30         
September 2009, the restated basic and diluted loss per share is $0.04 compared 
to the $0.08 as previously reported).                                           
The statement of cash flows for the three and nine months ended included errors 
relating to deferred acquisition costs previously capitalised, loan costs       
capitalised, ESOP Trust contribution, common shares issued and the disclosure of
finance income. As a result, the restated cash utilised by operating activities,
cash utilised by investing activities and cash generated from financing         
activities for the nine months ended 30 September 2009 are, $23,225,210,        
$146,277,576 and $188,425,528 respectively, compared to $20,928,615,            
$138,427,721 and $173,295,222 respectively, as previously reported (for the     
three months ended 30 September 2009, the restated cash utilised by operating   
activities, cash utilised by investing activities and cash generated from       
financing activities are $25,963,168, $140,083,176 and $188,425,528             
respectively, compared to $22,078,614, $126,600,972 and $173,295,222            
respectively, as previously reported).                                          
Depreciation was also reclassified to cost of sales as it is more closely       
aligned to the production process. The reclassification had no impact on        
earnings. The restated cost of sales for both the nine months and three months  
ended 30 September 2009 is $40.5 million compared to the $34.6 million as       
previously reported.

The Group has two reportable segments as described below. These segments are    
managed separately based on the nature of operations. For each of the segments, 
the Group`s CEO (the Group`s chief operating decision maker) reviews internal   
management reports monthly.  The following summary describes the operations in  
each of the Group`s reportable segments:                                        
- Bokoni Mine - Mining of PGM`s.                                                
- Projects - Mining exploration in Boikgantsho, Kwanda, and Ga-Phasha           
exploration projects.                                                           
The majority of operations and functions are performed in South Africa.  An     
insignificant portion of administrative functions are performed in the Company`s
country of domicile.                                                            
During the period, the CEO considered earnings before net finance expense,      
income tax, depreciation and amortisation ("EBITDA") to be a more appropriate   
measure of each segment`s performance as compared to "Loss before income tax".  
Accordingly, the EBITDA for each segment has been included. All external revenue
is generated by the Bokoni Mine segment
