manager at Anglo Platinum"s RPM mine in Rustenburg.
Said Aflease CE Neal Froneman:
"We are delighted to welcome Robert on board as a member of our growing team of
top mining professionals, as Aflease continues its progress towards the
development of its Dominium Reefs mine near Klerksdorp, while also moving
forward with the planned merger with Sub Nigel.
"The Sub Nigel transaction will provide a separate listing for our pure gold
assets, and is an important step forward in the consolidation of the East Rand

The Sub Nigel transaction will involve the merger of Sub Nigel with the New
