Village Main Reef Gold Mining Company (1934) -   
Village Main Reef Gold Mining Company (1934)                                    
(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)                                  
(Share code: VIL   ISIN  ZAE000007720 )                                         
(Registration number 1934/005703/06)                                            
("the Company")                                                                 
STATEMENT ON THE CLOSURE OF THE MINE                                            
At the Annual General Meeting held on Thursday, 23  October 2003, the Chairman  
reported that significant progress had been made during the year towards        
reducing the Company"s outstanding liabilities:                                 
- The Company"s only remaining freehold property,                              
     Portion 9 of the farm Turffontein (4 hectares), is subject to advanced sale
negotiations;                                                                   
 - Clearance was received during the last year from the National Nuclear        
Regulator on three sites, and all remaining sites are expected to achieve       
clearance once government effects new regulations within the near future. The   
Company will then be in a position to cancel its nuclear licence and remove this
significant constraint on orderly closure of defunct operations; and            
- Negotiations are progressing on the disposal of all remaining mine dumps,    
together with associated environmental liabilities that are the responsibility  
of the Company. With the exception of one small dump, all dumps are well        
vegetated and require minimal maintenance. Existing environmental rehabilitation
trust funds and cash resources are adequate to meet any current liabilities.    
Other business concluded at the meeting was:                                    
 - The approval of the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June   
2003;                                                                           
- The re-election of Messrs M Arnold, DN Campbell, RP Menell and AN Lewis as   
directors of the Company; and                                                   
 - The passing of two ordinary resolutions i.e. (1) placing all the authorised  
but unissued ordinary shares in the capital of the Company under the control of 
the directors and, (2) authorising the directors to allot and issue for cash,   
without restriction, all or any of the authorised but unissued ordinary shares  
placed under their control, as they deem fit, subject to the provisions of the  
JSE Listings Requirements.
