PROPRIETARY LIMITED (“SIOC”)
Shareholders are advised that the Supreme Court of Appeals (“SCA”)
has dismissed the appeal by the Department of Mineral Resources and
Imperial Crown Trading 289 (“ICT”) against the North Gauteng High
Court judgment, delivered in December 2011, which held that SIOC was
granted exclusive rights to mine iron ore at the Sishen mine in 2008
and set aside the granting of prospecting rights to ICT.
The SCA has thus upheld the relief which was sought by ArcelorMittal
South Africa in the High Court proceedings. The ruling paves the way
for ArcelorMittal South Africa and SIOC to resume the arbitration
process that was postponed pending the outcome of the SCA ruling.
