UPDATE ON ZIMBABWEAN INDIGENISATION PROCESS
Aquarius Platinum Limited ("Aquarius" or the "Company") today announces that
as part of the continuing negotiations between its indirect 50% subsidiary
Mimosa Holdings (Private) Limited ("Mimosa") and the Government of Zimbabwe
relating to its compliance with the Zimbabwean Indigenisation Act, Mimosa
today signed a Deed of Trust incorporating the Zvishavane Community Share
Ownership Trust (the "Trust"). The beneficiaries of the Trust include the
communities surrounding the Mimosa mine and the Deed of Trust is expected to
form an integral part of the overall Indigenisation Plan being developed
between Mimosa and the Government of Zimbabwe.
The Deed of Trust coming into effect and the issuing of equity in Mimosa to
the Trust is an indivisible part of a final Indigenisation Plan on which
Mimosa and the Government of Zimbabwe remain in discussions. The final terms
of the Indigenisation Plan will be announced as soon as this process is
concluded.
