Development at the Messina Platinum Mine Voorspoed Project has                  
continued. This is reflected in the increase in fixed assets in the             
balance sheet. The development has been funded from advances from the           
company`s bankers and its holding company, SouthernEra Resources Limited        
of Canada.                                                                      
The company remains dependent upon the continued support of its bankers         
and its holding company for the completion of the project which is              
progressing essentially in line with expectations.                              
Revenue generated from PGM sales during project construction is                 
capitalised.                                                                    
The interim report has been prepared in terms of Generally Accepted             
Accounting Practices adopted in the mining industry in South Africa. The        
same accounting policies applied in the most recent annual financial            
statements have been applied in the interim report.
