TRADING UPDATE
Shareholders are referred to the trading update dated 20 May 2005 whereby
shareholders were notified that headline and attributable earnings for the
financial year to 30 June 2005 were anticipated to be between R197,00 and
R240,00 per share.
This trading update serves to inform shareholders that due to the weakening of
the rand against the US dollar and additional sales volumes for manganese ore
and ferromanganese since the last trading update, headline and attributable
earnings for the financial year to 30 June 2005 are both now anticipated to be
between R254,00 and R276,00 per share (financial year to 30 June 2004 : headline
earnings - R60,26 per share / attributable earnings R61,53 per share).
The above forecast earnings per share information has not been reviewed, or
reported on by Assmang`s auditors. The year end results are expected to be
released towards the end of August 2005.
