REPORTING ENTITY                                                                
Anooraq Resources Corporation (the "Company" or "Anooraq") is incorporated in   
the Province of British Columbia, Canada.  The condensed consolidated interim   
financial statements of the Company as at and for the three and nine months     
ended 30 September 2011 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together     
referred to as the "Group" and individually as "Group entities") and the Group`s
interests in associates and jointly controlled entities. Its principal business 
activity is the mining and exploration of Platinum Group Metals ("PGM") through 
its mineral property interests. The Company focuses on mineral property         
interests located in the Republic of South Africa in the Bushveld Complex.      
Anooraq operates in South Africa through its wholly-owned subsidiary Plateau    
Resources (Proprietary) Limited ("Plateau") which historically owned the Group`s
various mineral property interests and conducted the Group`s business in South  
Africa.                                                                         
GOING CONCERN                                                                   
The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis that  
the Group will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realisation of
assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations as they 
become due.                                                                     
As a result of the acquisition of the operating mine in 2009, the Group secured 
various funding arrangements including securing a long-term credit facility, the
Operating Cash Flow Shortfall Facility ("OCSF"), with Rustenburg Platinum Mines 
Limited ("RPM") for an amount of $190.4 million (ZAR 1,470 million). The        
facility is used to fund operating cash and capital requirements for an initial 
period of three years. As at 30 September 2011, the Group utilised $131.6       
million (ZAR 1,016 million), excluding interest, thereof to fund operating      
requirements from 1 July 2009 as the mining operations are not currently        
generating sufficient cash flows to fund operations and operational projects.   
The Group has no obligation to repay significant interest and capital on its    
outstanding loans and borrowings during 2011 and 2012.                          
As a result of securing the financial resources and long-term funding,          
management expects that cash flows from the mining operations and the OCSF will 
be sufficient to meet immediate ongoing operating and capital cash requirements 
of the Group.

Senior Term Loan Facility                                                       
On 28 April 2011, the Senior Term Loan Facility with Standard Chartered Bank    
("SCB") and FirstRand Bank acting through its division, Rand Merchant Bank      
("RMB") was ceded to Anglo Platinum Limited ("Anglo") through its subsidiary,   
Rustenburg Platinum Mines Limited ("RPM"). The outstanding interest rate swap   
was settled with funding obtained from RPM.                                     
The debt ceded to RPM has similar terms as the Senior Term Loan Facility except 
for certain revisions. The revised terms of the loan is a reduction in the      
interest rate from a 3 month JIBAR plus applicable margin (4.5%) and mandatory  
cost (11.735% at 31 December 2010) to 3 month JIBAR plus 4% (9.585% at 30       
September 2011). The total facility has been increased from $107 million (ZAR   
750 million) to $132.7 million (ZAR 930 million). The commencement of re-       
payments has been deferred by one year from 31 January 2013 to 31 January 2014. 
RPM has also waived the loan covenants on the debt until 30 June 2012.          
Transaction costs capitalised of $4 million (ZAR 28 million) were written off to
finance expense on the cession of the Senior Term Loan Facility.

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.                                                            
The CEO considers earnings before net finance expense, income tax, depreciation 
and amortisation ("EBITDA") to be an appropriate measure of each segment`s      
performance. Accordingly, the EBITDA for each segment is included in the segment
information. All external revenue is generated by the Bokoni Mine segment.

13. EARNINGS PER SHARE                                                          
The basic and diluted loss per share for the three and nine months ended 30     
September 2011 was 4 cents (2010: 4 cents) and 14 cents (2010: 8 cents)         
respectively.                                                                   
The calculation of basic loss per share for the three months ended 30 September 
2011 of 4 cents (2010: 4 cents) is based on the loss attributable to owners of  
the Company of $14,926,427 (2010: $15,495,792) and a weighted average number of 
shares of 424,764,699 (2010: 424,660,916).                                      
The calculation of basic loss per share for the six months ended 30 September   
2011 of 14 cents (2010: 8 cents) is based on the loss attributable to owners of 
the Company of $58,853,342 (2010: $33,319,336) and a weighted average number of 
shares of 424,764,699 (2010: 424,660,916).                                      
Share options were excluded in determining diluted weighted average number of   
common shares as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
