Rick Menell, Chairman commented:

“The last six months has been a period of significant progress with the completion of our strategic review and the announcement of a pioneering transaction to transform Avmin into the largest fully empowered, diversified mining company in South Africa.”

“At our operations, the Nkomati nickel mine performed exceptionally well, taking full advantage of high nickel prices, and the new Target gold mine delivered improved results.”

“However, our earnings have been severely impacted by the strength of the rand, especially at our ferrous metals division. Despite the strong rand we were strongly cash generative and our balance sheet shows low gearing levels.”

“We are excited about the future prospects of the company and look forward to unlocking the value inherent in our operations and new projects.”
