Wesizwe Platinum Limited                                                        
(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)                                  
(Registration number 2003/020161/06)                                            
JSE code: WEZ & ISIN: ZAE000075859

General issue of shares for cash                                                
1    Introduction                                                               
At the annual general meeting of the Company held on 8 September 2006, the      
requisite majority of Wesizwe shareholders approved an ordinary resolution      
authorising the directors to issue shares for cash in accordance with paragraph 
5.52 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited ("JSE") ("general          
authority"). In accordance with the general authority the Company has           
successfully placed 28 168 372 ordinary shares ("the placed shares"), equating  
to 7,1 per cent of the Company`s issued share capital with institutions raising 
R94,6 million.                                                                  
The placed shares were issued at a price of 336 cents per share, being a 10 per 
cent discount to the 30 day volume weighted average price on 17 November 2006.  
These shares have been listed on the JSE as of Wednesday, 31 January 2007 and   
rank pari-passu with the existing ordinary shares of the Company.               
The proceeds from the placed shares will be used to fund further exploration,   
drilling and evaluation of current drilling programmes.                         
2    Financial effects                                                          
The table below reflects the unaudited pro forma financial effects of the above 
mentioned general issue of shares for cash. The pro forma financial effects have
been prepared for illustrative purposes only and in terms of the Listings       
Requirements of the JSE and therefore due to their nature, may not truly reflect
Wesizwe`s financial position or results. The directors of Wesizwe are           
responsible for the preparation of the pro forma financial effects.

1    The `Before the issue` figures are based on the unaudited interim financial
statements for the six months ended 30 June 2006.                               
2    The `Pro forma after the issue` figures have been adjusted to include the  
increase in cash as a result of the above proceeds from the placed shares.      
3    The `Pro forma after the issue` column is based on the assumption that the 
issue was effective from 1 January 2006 for basic loss per share and headline   
loss per share and on 30 June 2006 for NAV and NTAV; and that the proceeds were 
utilized to further the  exploration, drilling and evaluation of current        
drilling programmes.
