CHAIRMANS STATEMENT

Our strategy is: To grow the market for PGMs; To expand into that growth; and To optimize value in current operations
Barry Davison Chairman
Dear Shareholder, Despite a challenging set of circumstances in 2003, the Groups strategy again proved to be robust. Worldwide demand for newly mined platinum continued its unbroken growth for the eleventh consecutive year, reaching a record high of 6,59 million ounces and vindicating our decision to embark on an expansion drive almost four years ago. We raised our platinum group metal (PGM) production by another 5,4% and, notwithstanding the revision of our expansion plans announced towards the end of the year, we will continue growing our output at an average annual rate of 8% for the next three years, thus meeting our customers need for these remarkable metals. In the face of some difficult economic conditions, the operating margin of our steady-state mines averaged 34%, down from 55% in 2002. By far the most significant contributory factor in this drop was the strengthening of the rand, and gross revenue fell by R3,8 billion to R16,5 billion. Headline earnings per share fell from 2 625 to 972 cents per share. what the extent of this recovery will be, and whether sustained. While demand for platinum, palladium, and rhodium, which are the three major PGMs, varies between these key markets, some broad trends are discernible. The growth in platinum demand continued to outstrip supply by a significant margin and for the fifth year in succession there was a substantial shortfall in platinum supply. This accounts in part for the strength in the platinum price, which increased versus the prior period by 28% in US dollar terms. The fortunes of palladium and rhodium, however, were quite the opposite: there continued to be an over-supply of both metals in international markets and their prices consequently fell by 40% and 37% respectively. Overall the basket price rose 9% in dollar terms.

The impact of the strengthening rand on our performance


The 28% appreciation in the value of the South African rand against the US dollar versus the previous year had a profoundly negative impact on revenues received for our basket of products and on our operating margins. Our ability to manage the effects of a volatile rand is limited. We will continue looking as broadly as we possibly can at our existing cost structures in order to keep these under strict control. Indeed, a new initiative in this regard has already begun and I look forward to substantial progress being made in the year ahead. Against the backdrop of the rands performance and its impact on cash flows, the recently announced revision of our expansion schedule was prudent. A challenging period of rapid expansion is still ahead of us, but it would have been inadvisable to have maintained the pace and scope we originally set ourselves given the 19% reduction in the basket price in rand terms that we experienced in 2003.

Safety at our operations


We continued building on a positive trend in lost-time injuries recorded over the past few years. Although the number of fatalities fell, I am deeply saddened by these tragedies and I extend my condolences and those of the Board to the family members, friends, and colleagues who have been bereaved. We are dedicated to the task of ensuring that we continue reversing the trend of fatal accidents. Zero fatalities remains our objective.

Economic conditions in our key markets


Regarding the key global economies, it is encouraging that in the year under review there was some recovery in the United States and Japan. It remains to be seen

CHAIRMANS STATEMENT

Importantly, we have designed sufficient flexibility into the overall expansion programme to be able to make appropriate adjustments if and when conditions change.

Continuing issues in respect of legislative change


We can reflect favourably on the Minerals and Petroleum Resources Development Act, the Mining Charter and Scorecard, and the Groups progress towards meeting the targets and broader requirements of the latter, which is fully covered in the Sustainable Development Report accompanying this Business Report. The broad purpose of the legislative change is to empower historically disadvantaged South Africans so that they may participate fully in the countrys economic opportunities and, by this means, to strengthen the foundation of our future success as a nation. The achievement of this aim is as socially necessary as it is morally right. A business imperative for us is the conversion of so-called old-order mineral rights to new-order rights. All of the required mining licences have been granted and we are in a position to convert in accordance with the requirements of the new Act. The revision of our expansion programme will not affect this process, as mining projects are likely to proceed reasonably in line with the original plan. By contrast, I believe that the content of the redrafted Royalty Bill, when it becomes available, will require further robust engagement with Government. A body of stakeholder feedback has been submitted and the Minister of Finance has indicated that he expects to provide an update early in 2004. The initial proposal that royalty payments be based on revenue needs to be reconsidered; taxable income is a more equitable and sustainable basis. Should the intention remain to levy royalties on

revenue, I would suggest that the proposed rate be revised considerably downwards and that the introduction of royalty payments follows only after the conversion of all old-order mineral rights to new mineral rights or after five years from promulgation, whichever is the later. Also, the possibility of the duplication of royalty payments under existing agreements needs to be eliminated. We await first publication of the Beneficiation Bill, and I trust that this will prove to be a piece of logical, non-punitive draft legislation that seeks to place the responsibility for beneficiation where it best lies in terms of commercial and technical expertise. I wish to emphasize that this is not necessarily with producers, who nevertheless should be encouraged to play a supporting and facilitative, rather than an operational, role. In the jewellery sector, for example, established beneficiators such as designers and fabricators logically stand to gain from the development of their sector and are best positioned to take the lead. The Group has played a major role in financially supporting such initiatives.

Corporate governance
During the year, the Group continued to consolidate its position in respect of adherence to the second King Report on Corporate Governance. Most notably, we split the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) through my vacating the latter executive position to become Non-executive Chairman. Ralph Havenstein joined us as CEO, bringing with him a wealth of experience from the petroleum and chemicals sectors, together with valuable fresh perspectives on how to take our business forward. A number of other new directors joined the Board during the year: Bongani Khumalo as an Independent Non-executive Director; Lazarus Zim as a Non-executive Director;

responsiveness to these efforts, will help limit the downside price potential of these metals. I am satisfied that our strategy remains valid. The challenges for us in 2004 are to intensify our safety campaign, to improve the performance of our steady-state and ramp-up operations, particularly in respect of costs, and to continue with our expansion programme.

Looking ahead
I am confident that the outlook for platinum in the year ahead is robust. Jewellery demand is likely to remain flat, but the growing popularity of diesel-fuelled vehicles will ensure growth in demand for platinum in autocatalysts. Overall, demand is likely to exceed supply and prices should remain firm. Our encouragement of autocatalyst manufacturers to use more palladium and rhodium, and their growing

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS REVIEW

The strategic review has in no way altered indeed, it has confirmed our confidence in the robustness of current and future demand for platinum
Ralph Havenstein CEO
Dear Shareholder, It gives me great pleasure to present my first Chief Executive Officers review of Anglo Platinums performance, which is a consequence of the Groups decision to separate the roles of Chairman and CEO and of my recent appointment as the latter. the Department of Minerals and Energy. It is unfortunate that media coverage in 2003 focused on the peak of emissions rather than on our progress in bringing on-stream the new ACP Plant. We have redoubled our communication efforts and we are forging strong relationships with relevant authorities, non-governmental organizations, and the broader community, both in terms of their support for the continuous improvement for which we have striven over many years and their confidence in our ability to meet the targets we have set.

Safety, health, and environment


I am pleased to report that the Behaviour Based Safety programme continued to contribute to a decline in the lost-time injury frequency rate for the Group as a whole, from 1,2 per 200 000 man-hours in 2002 to 0,7 in 2003. Although the number of fatal injuries fell versus those recorded in 2002, it is distressing to record that 24 fatalities occurred at the Groups managed operations in 2003. I extend my deepest condolences to the families, friends, and colleagues of all who died at work in 2003. The HIV/AIDS pandemic, and in particular management of its impacts on employees, continued to be a primary focus of attention for the Group. A key feature of the year was our decision to provide antiretroviral therapy to employees and to lend our support to Government in the rollout of its own programme. This initiative, together with ongoing education, voluntary counselling and testing, and wellness programmes, will collectively manage this disease from both the business and social perspectives. On the environmental front, the new stateof-the-art Anglo Platinum Converting Process (ACP) Plant at the Waterval Smelter in Rustenburg performed to expectations as it began ramping up to full operation. By the end of 2004, when it will be operating at steady-state capacity, it will have reduced sulphur dioxide emissions to well within air quality limits recommended by the World Health Organization and in line with the schedule of reductions agreed with

Expansion review
The Groups revised expansion programme was announced shortly before year-end. The announcement was not unanticipated, shareholders having been warned at the half-year of the possible consequences for the programme of a much stronger-thananticipated rand and hence lower rand prices for the basket of metals sold in 2003 compared to 2002. The strategic review has in no way altered indeed, it has confirmed our confidence in the robustness of current and future demand for platinum and the need to retain our long-term strategy to grow the markets for PGM products, expand production to meet increased demand, and optimize current operations. It has, however, highlighted the combined impact of: South African producer price inflation of 26% over the past three years; an overall 14% decline in the US dollar price for the basket of metals produced during the same period despite a 9% recovery over 2003; and the 50% appreciation in the value of the rand from its low of almost R13 to the US dollar in December 2001. These factors pointed to the need: to slow down the rate of implementation of some of the Groups expansion projects by between one and three years, in particular Twickenham, Der Brochen, the second

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS REVIEW

phase of the Western Limb Tailings Retreatment Project, and the Pandora Project; to continue expanding treatment, smelting, and refining projects to meet the requirements of the build-up in the mining profile; and to rationalize existing operations to protect operating margins. We target to produce 2,9 million ounces of refined platinum in 2006, which will still see us growing our production by an average annual compound rate of 8% and making a significant contribution to the worlds demand for platinum group metals (PGM). We expect that increased usage of palladium in autocatalysts and slower growth in demand for platinum in jewellery fabrication will help soften the impact of the platinum supply deficit. From a mining perspective, we retain some flexibility to adjust production from our Merensky and UG2 reserves according to changing circumstances and this, together with adequate plant capacity, will enable us to bring forward project implementation once the outlook improves. The revised expansion programme will affect neither our Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) commitments nor our ability to comply with the requirements of the Mining Charter. Indeed, we have made good progress on BEE, facilitating the purchase of 22,5% of Northam Platinum by Mvelaphanda Platinum, securing a 50:50 joint venture with African Rainbow Minerals in respect of the Modikwa Platinum Mine, and agreeing a 50:50 joint venture with Royal Bafokeng Resources. We are also in discussion with the Pelawan and Khumama consortia on the Ga-Phasha PGM Project (formerly known as the Paschaskraal JV) and Booysendal Joint Venture respectively. We have already moved a long way down the path of meaningful economic empowerment of historically disadvantaged South Africans.

Operating and financial performance


The year was characterized by a generally sound operating performance from our steady-state mining operations. None of our operations, including those in a rampup stage, made an operating loss for the year, despite the aforementioned economic difficulties. We exceeded the target of 2,3 million ounces of refined platinum communicated to shareholders during 2003, a growth of 2,5% on platinum output in 2002, while contained platinum ounces purchased and produced at mine level rose by 8%. The difference results from a planned build-up in process pipeline compared with the reduction achieved in 2002. The temporary excess pipeline stock build-up in the first half was processed by year-end. At steady-state operations, the average head grade dropped from 4,91 to 4,86 grams per ton of 4E (down 1,0%) owing to a higher proportion of UG2 in the ore mix. On-mine cash costs rose from R233 to R253 per ton milled, or by 8,6%. Much of the increase in costs can be attributed to improved employee benefits, which in turn equated to an increase in average salaries and wages that was considerably above the South African inflation rate, and to higher steel and safety costs. The impact of a stronger rand against the US dollar was felt in the rand price received for our basket of metals, which at an average of R7 017 per ounce of platinum sold was 19.3% lower in 2003 than in 2002. Nevertheless, operating margins at our steady-state mines were robust at an average of 34,2%, the lowest being 20,4% at Union Section. Headline earnings for the year were R2,1 billion, down 63% on 2002. Cash flow from operations was R3,36 billion and R7,10 billion was invested in the Group, mainly on major projects to maintain and

expand operations. The Groups interestbearing borrowings increased to R7,17 billion. In light of the need to invest in expansion to take advantage of the opportunity that burgeoning PGM demand and our portfolio of quality ore reserve assets afford us, the Board has taken the decision to propose a cash dividend of 270 cents per ordinary share, with the option of reinvesting in the Companys equity. This is in addition to the interim dividend of 370 cents declared at the half-year.

A financing programme has been selected, which includes the raising of R4 billion through a rights issue and a dividend reinvestment election in respect of the final dividend for the 2003 financial year. The R4 billion is to be raised through the issue of convertible perpetual preference shares. All existing shareholders will have the opportunity to participate. Importantly, our principal shareholder, Anglo American plc, has agreed to reinvest its portion of the Groups final dividend and to take up its portion of the rights issue.

Prospects Capital expenditure and funding


A consequence of the revised implementation programme is a decline in planned capital expenditure on expansion between 2003 and 2006, from R15,3 billion to R11,0 billion (in 2003 terms), providing some relief in respect of the Groups funding requirements. In 2004, total capital expenditure is expected to be R6,5 billion. Of this, R4,4 billion is to maintain and replace production capacity, including R1,9 billion on major replacement projects, R1,9 billion is for expansion projects, and the balance is on capitalized interest. The Groups refined platinum production is planned to increase to approximately 2,45 million ounces in 2004. Our financial performance will be determined largely by our ability to manage costs at our steady-state mining and process operations and to continue with our expansion. Costs, on all fronts, will be the major priority for us. We have embarked on a Group-wide programme to increase efficiencies and reduce costs. The scope of this exercise will include all aspects of our business, with special emphasis on work processes and structures, both at our business units and at our corporate and central functions.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS REVIEW

Platinum prices are expected to remain firm due to the fundamental strength of demand for the metal. The market is experiencing historically high prices above US$800 per ounce after a strong rally from around US$600 per ounce in May 2003. The buoyant price is believed to be related partly to the weakness of the US dollar relative to the major currencies and the South African rand and partly to sustained physical offtake from all sectors, lowerthan-expected production levels, and anticipation of recovering economic growth around the world. The prices of other PGMs, including palladium and rhodium, appear rangebound, although palladium could potentially benefit from investor interest in anticipation of an increase in offtake of the metal by the automobile sector. Fundamental trends in the base metal markets, particularly nickel, are supportive of higher prices for these metals in 2004.

Notwithstanding the planned increase in volumes and the anticipation of good US dollar metal prices, earnings remain highly sensitive to the strength of the rand against the US dollar and US dollar metal prices. I extend my thanks to my fellow Executive Directors and all management and staff at Anglo Platinum for their strong commitment to the Group in 2003, and look forward to working with them in 2004.

Demand for platinum is either derived or created: industrial use of the metal is derived from its unique physical and chemical properties that enable its use in many varied applications, whereas jewellery demand is created and requires constant promotion and support. Platinums catalytic properties, inertness, durability, electrical conductivity, and high melting point are suited to diverse industrial applications, while its rarity, purity, strength, and beauty make it the metal of choice in jewellery. Demand for newly mined platinum* grew by an estimated 30 000 ounces in 2003 to 6,59 million ounces. Despite a 2,4% increase in newly mined supplies, the market was in deficit for the fifth consecutive year (480 000 ounces in 2003).

previous years, despite the rising platinum price. Recent consumer and trade surveys confirm the increasing preference for platinum bridal jewellery. Europe Platinum demand from jewellery fabricators in Europe rose by 3% in 2003, with strength in the UK market making up for weakness in other countries. Platinum made strong gains in the UK bridal market, resulting in a 30% growth in the volume of platinum jewellery hallmarked in 2003. Demand from Italy was flat. In Germany, platinum jewellery sales fell, but platinum bridal demand rose, highlighting the growing popularity of platinum in engagement and wedding bands. Japan Demand for platinum for the manufacture of jewellery in Japan fell by 15% in 2003. Consumer spending on luxury goods remained depressed because of weak economic conditions, while that on precious metal jewellery was 4% below that for the same period a year previously. The number of pieces sold was 17% down. The year-on-year declines affected gold more than platinum, with the number of platinum pieces sold registering a 13% decline versus golds 18%. Platinums decline was muted on account of its preferred status in the bridal market: more than 80% of wedding rings sold in Japan are made from platinum. At the lower end of the market, platinum lost market share, though mainly to white gold, thus evidencing the continued preference for white metal. Demand for new metal from manufacturers weakened, with a greater proportion of their metal being sourced from jewellery recycling. A high rate of bankruptcy in the jewellery sector resulted in increased volumes of secondary metal being supplied to the market.
* Platinum 2003, Johnson Matthey Interim Review

Jewellery
The higher platinum price had an adverse impact on the jewellery market during the year, and demand fell 13,1% to 2,45 million ounces for the year. In contrast to other applications, the jewellery industry has cheaper substitutes, such as white gold. Despite these difficulties, demand at the consumer end of the market remained surprisingly resilient. Platinums profile was raised by the launch of a new branding and advertising campaign by the Platinum Guild International during 2003. North America Demand for platinum for the fabrication of jewellery in North America rose by 5% in 2003 as platinum built on its popularity in the bridal sector. Consumer surveys conducted in this target market indicated that in 2002 platinum accounted for 38% of engagement rings priced above US$3 000, 36% of womens wedding bands priced above US$1 000, and 32% of mens wedding bands priced above US$500. These are substantially up on

MARKET REVIEW > PLATINUM SUPPLY AND DEMAND

China Platinum demand for Chinese jewellery fabrication fell for the first time since this market was developed. Demand for the year was 1,2 million ounces, 19% below the 2002 level. Consumer demand was affected earlier in the year by the SARS outbreak, especially in Beijing, keeping consumers at home. The effect was temporary and demand returned after fears subsided, with a number of leading manufacturers reporting record sales in revenue terms. At the manufacturing level, margins were squeezed by higher prices, and some purchases of metal were held back until spot prices eased or retail prices could be raised. In August, platinum started trading on the Shanghai Gold Exchange. Platinum taxation was bought in line with that of gold, having previously been at a higher level. Platinum traded through the exchange is effectively free of value-added tax and the removal of this economic restraint bodes well for future growth in demand. Changes in sales legislation enabled more retailers to start stocking and selling gold. As a result, helped by its higher margins, 18-carat white gold gained some market share at the lower end. Bridal demand for platinum, however, has continued increasing in China, with the metal being seen as appropriate for the setting of diamonds and for plain wedding rings.

extent by gradual further geographical spread of autocatalyst requirements to less-developed countries. North America Sales of new vehicles in North America declined in the first eight months of 2003, but rose afterwards: sales for the year are estimated to have been equivalent to levels reached in 2002. Production of new vehicles in North America, however, was 11% down from 2002s level as imported vehicles increased their share of the market and domestic manufacturers reduced inventory levels, which were high at the beginning of 2003. Despite lower vehicle production, demand for newly mined platinum increased by 54% as low metal stocks at the start of the year necessitated purchases for consumption and to supplement inventories. Many auto-manufacturers made plans to reduce their reliance on

Autocatalysts
Autocatalysts using PGMs are fitted to vehicles to convert noxious exhaust emissions into less harmful gases. Legislation limiting emissions from vehicles was first promulgated in North America in the 1970s and later adopted by other regions. More than 90% of new vehicles built in the world are fitted with autocatalysts. Future growth will be driven mainly by the increasing stringency of legislation governing emissions in the major consuming countries, requiring higher loadings per vehicle, and to a lesser

Sales of light-duty diesel vehicles continued to climb and their share of the market for 2003 is estimated at 43%, up from 40,3% in 2002. Demand for platinum in the gasoline sector was static during the year. Automotive analysts believe that sales of all light vehicles, which have been declining since late-1999, are likely to rebound in 2004. All new vehicles in Europe must comply with EURO III legislation and will have to meet EURO IV limits in 2005. Tax benefits offered to purchasers of vehicles that are already EURO IV-compliant are encouraging manufacturers to meet the more stringent standards early. A new directive on sulphur levels in fuel has been approved, requiring the maximum amounts of sulphur in petrol and diesel to be less than 50 parts per million (ppm) from 2005. Between 2005 and 2009, this limit will decline in phases to less than 10ppm. The availability of sulphur-free fuels will enable catalytic systems to meet the future emission standards, particularly diesel standards. Furthermore, low-sulphur fuels and the fitting of autocatalysts to diesel vehicles will enable manufacturers to meet the carbon dioxide targets set for 2008. These developments will be particularly important in the case of platinum, which is more suited to diesel applications than other PGMs. Japan Demand for platinum for the manufacture of autocatalysts in Japan rose by 14% in 2003, largely because of the retrofitting of emission control devices to heavy-duty diesel vehicles. Sales of light vehicles in Japan were in line with those for the same period in 2002. Production of vehicles fell, with weak domestic demand exacerbated by a decline in exports. Successful thrifting programmes enabled auto-manufacturers to reduce their use of both platinum and palladium in the light-duty sector. In April 2002, the Central Environment Council, policy advisors to the Ministry of the Environment, announced new longterm targets for reduced vehicle emissions, which must be achieved by the end of 2005. Rest of the world Platinum autocatalyst demand in the rest of the world was 16% higher in 2003, owing to increased vehicle production in China and stricter emissions legislation.

palladium when its price rallied at the end of 2000 by substituting platinum for some palladium. These platinum-bearing systems are presently being fitted to new vehicles. The California Air Resources Board introduced new legislation in April. Instead of 10% of vehicles having to be zeroemission, the Board is now calling for hybrid vehicles. The revised legislation, which comes into effect in 2005, will allow manufacturers two options in order to meet their zero-emission vehicle obligations. They will be allowed to produce fewer fuel cell vehicles by 2008, provided that they produce a certain percentage of advancedtechnology partial zero-emission vehicles and partial zero-emission vehicles. Europe Sales of light vehicles in Europe were 1,5% lower than in 2002. Despite the fall in car sales, demand for platinum in autocatalysts

buses, reached 4 million, up from 3,25 million in 2002; car sales were close to 2 million units. The Chinese government has mandated that all vehicles must comply with emission limits equivalent to EURO II in 2004 and the more stringent EURO IV by 2008. 30% of vehicle output consists of diesel-fuelled units, mainly for commercial vehicles; this number is expected to expand to 35% by 2005. With continuing growth in vehicle production, the rising proportion of diesels, and the adoption of more stringent emissions legislation, Chinese autocatalyst platinum demand will expand rapidly.

Industrial
Chemical Platinum catalysts are used in many chemical processes, such as the production of nitric acid, silicones, and paraxylene. The use of platinum catalysts to produce nitric acid is one of the metals oldest industrial uses. Much of the platinum demand is merely for topping up and it is only when new nitric acid capacity is constructed that demand rises significantly. The major use of nitric acid is in the fertilizer industry. Competing products and over-capacity have resulted in few new production facilities in North America and Europe and output has been low in these regions. New capacity was restricted to a few plants in Eastern Europe and Asia. Thus, demand for platinum was lower in 2003. Platinums use in the manufacture of silicones has grown over the last few years and now accounts for the largest proportion of chemical demand for platinum. It is completely consumed in the process, and demand increases directly with output. Silicones are used in the manufacture of pressure-sensitive adhesives, release liners, and waterrepellent coatings. Pressure-sensitive adhesives are used in Post-it notes, while release liners are used in re-sealable plastic bags. Water-repellent coatings have a vast array of applications, among them furniture polish and cleaning products. Platinum demand was unchanged, given no significant increase in output of these chemicals. Electrical Platinum is used in a cobalt-based alloy in computer hard disks to enhance storage capacity. Data-storage requirements of computers have increased rapidly and almost all computer hard disks now contain platinum. As data storage has increased, the number of disks per computer has

decreased. This, however, has been balanced by the growing use of disks in other applications, such as games consoles, and platinum demand rose by 4% year on year. With a rise in steel output in 2003, demand for platinum thermocouples also grew. Glass Equipment used in the glass industry is made from platinum alloys because of their high melting temperature, strength, and corrosion resistance. Platinum is used in the manufacture of liquid crystal displays, cathode-ray tube displays, and optical glass, while platinum/rhodium bushings are used to manufacture glass fibre. Demand for speciality glass benefited from improved sales of personal computers. However, sales of platinum to this sector did not increase in 2003. Demand in 2001 and 2002 was boosted by construction of new capacity, which was sufficient to meet 2003s demand. The net impact was to reduce demand for newly mined platinum from 255 000 ounces in 2002 to 245 000 ounces in 2003.

Petroleum Platinum is used in catalysts for the reforming and isomerization of petroleum. Demand for newly mined platinum in the petroleum sector remained unchanged in 2003, with a lack of construction of new reforming capacity. Recent developments in technology have extended the lifespan of catalysts and allowed for less platinum per catalyst. Demand therefore will only increase if capacities are expanded sufficiently to counteract these trends.

iridium, and ruthenium), gold, and base metals (nickel, copper, and cobalt sulphate). The contribution of these other metals to total revenue in 2003 was 29% (2002: 38%).

Palladium
Demand for palladium rose by 16% in 2003, to 5,65 million ounces. The rebound in demand was largely attributable to the component inventory run-down at auto and electronic companies. Palladium supplies were, however, 20% higher than in 2002, resulting in a surplus of 670 000 ounces. Supplies rose on higher shipments from Russia and South Africa. Norilsk is believed to have sold its full production of palladium in 2003. South African output of palladium is increasing relative to that of platinum, since much of its new output is sourced from the relatively palladium-rich UG2 Reef. Autocatalysts Purchases of palladium for use in autocatalysts rose strongly in 2003, largely because US auto-manufacturers inventories had been run down in 2002. The underlying use of palladium per unit has however fallen as a result of intensive thrifting programmes. The amount of palladium used in autocatalysts in the 1990s was very high compared to platinum. The technology available at the time required between three and four times more palladium per catalyst than platinum. Palladium traded at such a large discount to platinum that, even with the heavier metal content, palladium technology was still cost-effective. However, when the palladium price rose to around US$1 000/oz in 2001, automanufacturers examined ways of reducing their reliance on the metal. Palladium is an integral part of gasoline exhaust-emission control systems on account of its superior ability to convert hydrocarbons, and automanufacturers are unable to dispense with its use entirely. North America Purchases of palladium by the North American autocatalyst sector in 2003 compared with 2002 more than doubled to 1,31 million ounces. In 2002, a large proportion of vehicle manufacturers requirements were met from stock, which was consequently run down. Palladium actually used in 2003 declined as programmes implemented in 2000 and 2001 to reduce reliance on the metal through thrifting and substitution were successfully implemented.

Fuel cells
Fuel cells are electrochemical generators of electricity. As they are exceptionally efficient, they produce no noxious gases if fuelled by hydrogen. The concept of fuel cells has long been understood; it is only recently, however, that the commercial use of fuel cells has been explored. The primary driver behind research has been the desire to limit emissions as a consequence of increasingly strict regulatory controls. There are different types of fuel cells: alkaline fuel cells, which provide power on spacecraft; direct methanol fuel cells; molten carbonate fuel cells; solid oxide fuel cells; and proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). They all have unique properties that lend themselves to different applications. However, PEMFCs, containing platinum, are the most versatile and can be used to power anything from the smallest electronic device to vehicles. Most major automobile manufacturers are involved in fuel cell research. The PEMFC is seen as the best option for developing an emission-free vehicle that runs on hydrogen. Before the widespread commercialization of fuel cell vehicles takes hold, a number of issues will need to be resolved, including the sourcing of hydrogen and mass refuelling infrastructure. In the meantime, auto-manufacturers will launch hybrid vehicles (some with fuel cells). The first commercial market for fuel cell technology is likely to be in the portable power sector, where products are being developed. Demand for larger portable systems, particularly those used in the military, is strong, as they are not restricted in time of use as conventional batteries, have a greater power density, and are quiet in operation.

Other metals
Platinum is the largest single contributor to Anglo Platinums revenues. However, the Group also produces important amounts of the other PGMs (palladium, rhodium,

Europe Demand for palladium for autocatalysts fell in Europe by some 100 000 ounces, in line with a decline in sales of gasoline vehicles, which were more than 6% below levels reached the previous year. Although total light vehicle sales for the year were little changed, the continuing gains of diesel vehicles against gasoline-powered vehicles brought about the fall in sales. Japan Because of a need to replenish inventories, demand for palladium in autocatalysts rose by 4% in 2003, despite lower vehicle output. More stringent emissions legislation is necessitating higher loadings of palladium. Japanese original equipment manufacturers have traditionally used all three PGMs, and any major switching of technology in favour of one is not foreseen. Electronics Palladium demand in the electronic sector was depressed in 2001 and 2002 as a result of high component and metal inventories. These inventories have since declined and production is now being increased to meet demand. Manufacturers inventories of metal have shrunk to more realistic levels and capacity utilization has improved, resulting in an increase of palladium purchases. The largest area of palladium consumption in the electronic sector is in multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), in which a palladium/silver conductive electrode material is layered between insulating ceramic wafers. Rising prices at the beginning of 2000 led to a move towards base metal MLCC production. Nickel-based MLCCs have grown and now account for 63% of total output. This shift towards substitution, coupled with a trend towards miniaturization of components, translated into lower consumption of palladium in 2003. Palladium is used with silver to connect electronic components in hybrid integrated circuits (HIC). Thrifting strategies by component manufacturers have managed to reduce the use of palladium in HICs by up to 25%. Palladium is also used to plate connectors that link components in electronic circuitry. Although gold can be used in this application, the use of palladium requires less metal. Lead frames are used to connect integrated circuits to other electronic devices. Some manufacturers use palladium to plate the frames as an environmentally preferable

alternative to tin-lead solder. Gold can be used instead, but palladiums price advantage discourages this. Dental Palladium demand in dentistry rose by 6% in 2003, with the lower price encouraging its use in North America and Japan. Palladium is alloyed with other metals for use in dental restorations, such as crowns. In Japan, the government specifies the alloy used for subsidized dental work: kinpala, containing 20% palladium. Japan is the leading market for palladium dental alloys, and 2003 consumption was at 530 000 ounces, 25 000 ounces more than in 2002. Palladium demand increased in North America owing to the price differential with gold. In Europe, however, demand remained static because of a move to the greater use of base metal alloys and ceramics. Chemical Palladium-based catalysts are used in a vast array of bulk and speciality fine chemical production processes. Some of the bulk chemicals produced are acetaldehyde, hydrogen peroxide, oleochemicals, purified terephthalic acid (PTA), and vinyl acetate monomer. Growth in capacity for production of these chemicals in the Middle East has underpinned palladium demand recently; weaker demand for these chemicals in Japan and North America in 2003, however, caused overall demand to flatten out. Demand from the process catalyst sector rose steadily on the back of the expansion of PTA manufacturing capacity in Asia.

Rhodium
Rhodium demand was 6% higher in 2003, largely because of an increase in autocatalyst demand. Supply of rhodium grew at a greater rate because of expansions in PGM production in South Africa and an increase in shipments from Russia. The rhodium market was therefore in surplus to the extent of some 14 000 ounces for the year. Autocatalyst Demand for rhodium in the autocatalyst sector rose by 11% in 2003 on account of low pre-year inventory levels and more exacting emissions legislation. Furthermore, intense platinum and palladium thrifting programmes are in some cases achieved by the addition of more rhodium. In the USA, Tier II emission regulations will be phased in from 2004. Tier II requires significantly lower nitrous oxide emissions, necessitating an increase in rhodium on

some vehicles. Programmes in the USA to reduce platinum and palladium content in catalysts have promoted the use of rhodium. In Japan, some auto-manufacturers are meeting legislation ahead of the 2005 deadline, which has boosted demand for rhodium in the region. In Europe, increased use of rhodium to facilitate platinum and palladium thrifting and the meeting of Euro IV standards was offset by a decline in the production of gasoline vehicles, and rhodium demand was relatively unchanged from the previous years figure. The largest growth region for rhodium was Asia. High growth in vehicle output, coupled with the widening of emissions legislation, caused a 14% increase in the use of rhodium in autocatalysts.

iridium in the manufacture of crucibles. Ruthenium and iridium have also been introduced into the fabrication of magnetic random access memory (MRAM) technology, used for electronic data storage. Supply of both ruthenium and iridium will rise as South African mining of the UG2 Reef expands, which contains higher quantities of ruthenium and iridium than the Merensky Reef.

Nickel
Market projections of deficits from 2003 to 2006 attracted relentless buying from investment funds seeking an alternative to underperforming equity markets in a weakening dollar environment. By September 2003, the price had surpassed the US$10 000/ton level after starting the year at US$7 100/ton. In 2003, support for the nickel price was driven by a strike at INCO in Canada and booming demand from Chinese stainless steel producers. Norilsk Nickels decision to sell off 60 000 tons of nickel, held on stockpile as collateral during the year, had no significant dampening effect on the price. Chinas stainless steel industry imported a net 35 800 tons of nickel in the year to July, an increase of 154% in imports against the same period in 2002. Chinas domestic nickel production meets only 60% of its demand and it looks to the rest of the world to fill the gap. However, the danger now lies in China looking to lower-content nickel stainless steel grades at current nickel prices, which were last seen 13 years ago. The outlook for the next few years remains positive, with demand likely to exceed supply. Not until 2006 will two new projects from INCO come on stream, these being the Voiseys Bay 50 000 tons per year mine in Canada and the Goro 60 000 tons per year mine in New Caledonia. In view of current underlying strength in market fundamentals, a firmer nickel price in 2004, above that of the 2003 average, appears likely.

Ruthenium and iridium


The main applications for ruthenium and iridium are chemical, electrochemical, and electronic. Growth in ruthenium demand has increased significantly on account of its use in the manufacture of acetic acid. Production of acetic acid, which previously used a rhodium catalyst, is now increasingly dependent on a ruthenium-iridium catalyst (Cativa process), boosting demand for both metals. Rutheniums use in electronics also increased in 2003 following a component stock drawdown in 2002. Ruthenium and iridium are used to coat anodes in electrochemical processes, such as chlorine production. Increasing demand for high-purity crystals, especially lithium-based crystals used in cellular telephones, has boosted demand for

Financial performance
The average rand/US dollar exchange rate achieved on sales for 2003 was 28,2% lower than for 2002. Had the average rand/US dollar exchange rate been the same as that for 2002, gross sales revenue would have been R5,72 billion higher than the R16,51 billion recorded. Cost of sales rose by 20,3% or R2,06 billion, mainly because of increased production from ramp-up operations and inflationary cost pressures. Headline earnings declined by 62,8% to R2,09 billion. Headline earnings per share decreased by 63,0% to 972 cents per share.

Cash smelting costs increased by R269,5 million, or 42,1%, to R910,1 million due to the commissioning of the Polokwane Smelter together with the dual operation of the old converters and acid plant in tandem with the new ACP Plant to provide dual processing capacity during the ramp-up of the new plant. Cash treatment and refining costs increased by 5,9%, from R752,0 million to R796,3 million. Purchases of metal in concentrate increased by R169,7 million to R291,6 million, owing mainly to higher purchases from the Modikwa Joint Venture. Amortization of operating assets rose by R382,8 million. Amortization of smelting assets increased by 122,0% or R69,8 million as a result of bringing the Polokwane Smelter and the ACP Plant into use in 2003. Amortization of mining assets increased by R293,5 million owing to higher amortization of Modikwa and the Rustenburg UG2 Project, which were only in use for part of 2002, and a general increase in amortization charges across the operations resulting from ongoing capital expenditure. The value of metals in inventory increased by R584,9 million during 2003 as a result of higher stocks and cost increases. Other net expenditure in 2003 amounted to R269,3 million, compared with R754,7 million in 2002. This primarily reflects lower foreign exchange losses resulting from a lower appreciation of the rand than in the previous period. Profits of R157,3 million realized on commodity contracts were largely offset by costs of R111,4 million incurred as a result of the slowdown of the rate of implementation of the expansion projects.

Financial results
Gross sales revenue decreased by R3,78 billion to R16,51 billion. The decrease was caused primarily by the stronger rand (R5,72 billion), partly offset by an increase in US dollar revenues for metals sold (R1,33 billion) and higher sales volumes (R0,61 billion). The net sales revenue per platinum ounce sold (basket price) decreased by 19,3%, from R8 690 in 2002 to R7 017 in 2003. Cost of sales rose by R2,06 billion to R12,19 billion. The cash on-mine costs at steady-state operations increased by R669,6 million, or 11,7%. This reflects a higher volume of ore mined, the 9,5% annual wage increase negotiated in 2002, the cost to equalize retirement fund contribution rates across the Group, and aboveinflation increases in steel costs. In addition, the Group raised the level of expenditure in key areas such as safety, training, and health. Cash on-mine costs at ramp-up operations increased by R988,1 million owing to higher production. Unit costs at these operations will remain relatively high as they ramp up to steady-state production.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure amounted to R7,42 billion (2002: R5,99 billion). Expenditure to maintain operations increased from R2,14 billion to R3,95 billion owing to increased expenditure on projects to replace production at steadystate mines, including the Rustenburg UG2 Project. Expansion capital expenditure amounted to R3,27 billion (2002: R3,85 billion).

Dividend
The Group is committed to large capital expenditures for several years in order to increase production volumes. During this period, cash generated by operations may vary considerably, depending on short-term metal prices and the rand/US dollar exchange rate. The declaration of cash dividends will continue to be considered by the Board in conjunction with an evaluation of current and future funding requirements, and will be adjusted to levels considered appropriate at the time of the declaration. Dividends will be paid out of cash generated from operations. Accordingly, the Board has declared a final cash dividend of 270 cents per ordinary share, with the option to reinvest the dividend in the companys equity. This brings the total dividend declared for 2003 to 640 cents per ordinary share.

Financial structure
During the year ended 31 December 2003, the Group moved from a net cash position of R1,44 billion to a net debt position of R6,92 billion, a net outflow of R8,36 billion. Cash generated by operations amounted to R3,36 billion (2002: R9,62 billion). Payments consisted mainly of capital expenditure totaling R7,42 billion (2002: R5,99 billion), dividends of R2,73 billion (2002: R5,36 billion), and taxation of R1,47 billion (2002: R3,30 billion) and interest of R0,20 billion was capitalized (2002: nil). Borrowings at the end of 2003 consist primarily of short-term debt facilities. A financing programme has been selected in conjunction with external financiers and with Anglo Platinums major shareholder, Anglo American plc. The proposed financing programme includes the raising of R4 billion through a rights issue and a dividend reinvestment election in respect of the final dividend for the 2003 financial year. The R4 billion is to be raised through

Information communications and technology


Anglo Platinums use of Quadrem (the mining, minerals, and metals electronic marketplace) grew as it continued to drive efficiencies and reduce costs. The Group also implemented Quadrems electronic tender tool, QUEST, for non-contract quotations. There was an ongoing joint effort with Quadrem to improve the quality of electronic catalogues. As these are developed, they are made available via SAPs Enterprise Buyer Professional (EBP) to end-users. The Group also utilized Quadrems reverse auction service to source items at significantly reduced prices. The implementation of the SAP system over the past few years has strongly supported the Groups expansion, and SAP was successfully deployed at all new sites. A continuous business improvement exercise is under way to further exploit the benefits that SAP can provide. Significant progress was made in the areas of material purchasing and production planning. SAP continued to perform reliably as the core commercial system for the Group and reached a satisfactory level of maturity in most functional areas. IT functions continued to be outsourced to some of the strongest IT service providers in South Africa. The selective outsource model was reviewed and validated by an international consulting group, Gartner, which is also assisting with redefinition of the associated management processes and contracts.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Safety and health


The safety and health of employees remained managements highest concern during 2003. There was continuous emphasis on the Behaviour Based Safety (BBS) process embarked upon in 2002, which yielded a considerable improvement in the reported lost-time injury frequency rate (LTIFR) per 200 000 hours worked at managed operations, as well as a decline in the number of fatal injuries. The primary occupational risks are falls of ground, moving machinery, and materials handling. The level of safety-related expenditure per ton milled increased by some 20% at Anglo Platinums mines in 2003. As well as the BBS process, with its concomitant increase in training personnel, support and equipment standards were revised to improve the safety of employees. The Group LTIFR improved by 42%, from 1,2 in 2002 to 0,7 in 2003. All operations showed an improvement, with the exception of Waterval Smelter, (which had two fatal accidents). The fatal injury frequency rate (FIFR) per 200 000 man-hours was flat at 0,03. All operations improved their FIFR, except Waterval Smelter and Union Section. At Union Section, a promising downward trend in the LTIFR was undermined by five fatal accidents; all support standards were subsequently revised and training programmes were intensified. Despite the overall improvement in safety measures, the number of fatal accidents was only slightly lower in 2003 than in 2002. Tragically, 24 employees died at Anglo Platinums managed operations during 2003, and a further three employees died at Modikwa, a nonmanaged operation. The Board and management extend their condolences to the families and colleagues of those who have died and reaffirm the Groups commitment towards the goal of creating a fatality-free work environment. It is managements firm belief that continued focus on the BBS process will in due course deliver the mindset change required to reduce the number of injuries and fatal accidents at all operations. In 2004, there will be particular focus on falls of ground prevention training. At all the Groups operations, there is no significant risk of exposure to either asbestos or silica dusts, making them comparatively safe environments in which to work as far as the danger of lung disease is concerned. However, as an expanding mining company the Group finds occasional cases of lung disease acquired as a consequence of prior exposure, which, once detected, are monitored. Affected individuals are referred to national social security and workmens compensation bodies. In accordance with the changed compensation framework for noise-induced hearing loss (Compensation for Occupational Injuries and Disease Act, Instruction No. 171) all employees were base-lined for hearing by the statutory deadline of 16 November 2003. HIV/AIDS remains a significant operational challenge. Anglo Platinum is well equipped to manage the impact of this pandemic at both the individual and the Group level. The HIV/AIDS strategy is reviewed annually in terms of its effectiveness, and the HIV/AIDS programme has been extended to include the delivery of antiretroviral therapy (ART) to employees and, together with the support of the Stateled programmes, will provide employees with treatment options. In addition, steps are being taken to help prevent the development of resistance to medication, an increasingly important issue as more people take advantage of the availability of ART. A full discussion on safety and health performance and the various initiatives implemented by the Group may be found in the accompanying Sustainable Development Report.

Mining operations
Total platinum delivered to the smelters, including platinum purchased from the Modikwa joint venture partners, increased by 8%, an additional 175 000 ounces refined platinum at standard recoveries. The increased output is mainly attributable to the ramp-up operations: Rustenburg UG2, Modikwa and BRPM.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > INTRODUCTION

Production increased at Union Section and PPRust. Union Section reaped the benefits of the UG2 project commissioned in 2002, with additional production from the new declines and increased plant capacity from the extension to the UG2 Plant. As well as an increase in underground production Union Section used its available plant capacity to process opencast and tailings material and its equivalent refined platinum production rose by 41 500 ounces. PPRust successfully brought the Zwartfontein South Pit into production, resulting in improved mill feed grades and an increase in equivalent refined platinum production of 27 100 ounces. At Rustenburg Section, replacement of Merensky with UG2 production continued during 2003. Equivalent refined platinum production from steady-state shafts fell by 40 200 ounces to 571 300 ounces, reflecting a decrease in available Merensky reserves. Amandelbult focused on optimizing its new UG2 mechanized sections during 2003, and on improving its ore reserves. The mine milled 6 956 000 tons in 2003, slightly lower than in 2002. Production of equivalent refined platinum fell by 32 900 ounces to pre-2002 levels because of lower grades and recoveries resulting from increased UG2 opencast production, the substitution of Merensky with UG2 production, and a shift in Merensky production from No. 1 Shaft to No. 2 Shaft, which has a slightly lower grade. Leplats production in 2003 was steady at 105 000 equivalent refined platinum ounces. Cash on-mine costs per ton milled increased by 8,6% from R233 per ton in 2002 to R253 per ton in 2003. This is higher than official inflation because of high increases in the costs of labour and steel, as well as increased safety-related expenditure. The lower grade and recovery associated with higher UG2 and surface material resulted in a 12% increase in cash on-mine costs per equivalent refined platinum ounce. In order to minimize the rate of decline of the steady-state production base, all steady-state operations ensured that they maintained their immediately available ore reserves and invested the appropriate amount of working cost and capital

expenditure in maintaining infrastructure and replacing depleted mining reserves. Notwithstanding the strength of the rand against the US dollar during 2003, operating margins at steady-state operations were robust at an average of 34,2%. Combined, these operations generated 95,8% of the Groups operating contribution in 2003.

Ramp-up mines
Equivalent refined platinum production from ramp-up operations (including purchases from Modikwa) amounted to 529 500 ounces in 2003, compared with 349 900 ounces in 2002, an increase of 179 600 ounces (51,3%). BRPM steadily improved its underground production efficiencies and volumes during 2003, with the result that far less surface material was milled. The higher grade and recoveries associated with the underground ore largely offset higher mining costs. At the end of the year, most production measures were substantially in line with design parameters, and from 2004 the mine will be reported as a steady-state operation. Full PGM production volumes and optimum cost efficiency will be achieved through incremental grade improvement. The Rustenburg UG2 Project achieved a 51% increase in tons milled in 2003, and equivalent refined platinum ounces increased by 58,3% because of more tons at an improved grade at the Waterval mine. The new plant exceeded design throughput for the year. Despite the rapid build-up, production from this operation did not achieve expectations owing to limited face availability. Accelerated development plans and mined-grade enhancement initiatives are in place, and the ore-sorting plant is being commissioned to further improve the mill feed grade and make better use of the available milling capacity. Modikwa completed its first full year of production in 2003, having commenced operations in the second half of 2002. Square metre production increased steadily during the year despite difficult geological conditions, which hampered development rates and the creation of ore reserves. Accelerated development at the mine continues and the mine is expected to be close to design parameters by the end of 2004.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > INTRODUCTION

Processing operations
The key feature of the performance of process operations in 2003 was the significant increase in smelting capacity put in place with the commissioning of the Polokwane Smelter, the Anglo Platinum Converting Process (ACP) Plant, and the Waterval Slag-cleaning Furnace. Unfortunately, this capacity brings with it a higher level of operating costs that cannot be absorbed by current levels of throughput; consequently, unit costs of smelting will fall as increased volumes from the expansion programme are achieved. Nonetheless, the capacity is now in place and the new plants are operating well. Polokwane Smelter has already achieved design recoveries and the ACP is steadily increasing throughput while significantly reducing sulphur dioxide emission levels. The base metals and precious metals refineries both delivered high-quality technical performances in 2003, and contained costs well. The commissioning activity caused a temporary build-up of some 160 000 equivalent refined platinum ounces at the end of June, which was all released by the end of the year. Permanent lock-up of metal in 2003 due to the new plants in operation and higher throughput amounted to some 52 700 equivalent refined platinum ounces. The treatment of purchased concentrate has become an important part of the Process Divisions business. More material will be purchased in future as joint venture output rises. Combined with the increase in output from the Groups mines, this may result in temporary stock build-ups. During such periods, the Group will continue to consider toll-refining and the sale of metal in near-refined product. Such sale of metal or toll-refined product is incorporated in the definition of refined product. The processing operations are well positioned to meet the Groups requirements in 2004.

decision to slow down the implementation of a number of mining projects by between one and three years, and as a result refined platinum production is now targeted to reach 2,9 million ounces in 2006. Progress on the major projects under development is discussed on pages 45 to 50 of this Report. Two new projects announced during the year are the Pooling and Sharing Agreement (PSA) with Aquarius Platinum (South Africa), a midsized PGM operation, the holding company of which is listed on the Australian and the London Stock Exchanges, and the Unki project, being undertaken with Anglo American Corporation Zimbabwe Limited. In the PSA with Aquarius Platinum (South Africa), some mining assets were pooled with effect from November 2003 and the parties will share the proceeds. The project will produce an annual 280 000 ounces of refined platinum at full production in 2006. From 2005, Anglo Platinum will also treat concentrate from the venture. The Unki project entails the development of a mine on the Zimbabwean Great Dyke, which will, at peak production, produce 58 000 ounces of refined platinum per year.

Human resources
Human resource development (HRD) remains a core component of the Groups strategy and the Groups human capital development needs are continually integrated within the business plan. During 2003, the Group focused on aligning HRD with Group strategy and optimizing the business alignment of the Anglo Platinum Development Centre (ADC). The outcomes-based education, training, and development methodology was initiated. The main external development was the preparation of the Department of Minerals and Energys requirements for conducting falls of ground competence assessments that are aligned with the National Unit Standards. The Group succeeded for the third successive year in reclaiming its full Skills Levy Fund remittance from the Mining Qualifications Authority. During 2003, Anglo Platinum developed a record number of graduates and trainees, a total of 520. The Group continued to enjoy labour stability through the maintenance of

Projects
Towards the end of the financial year, and in view of the continuing strength of the South African currency and lower rand prices for the Groups basket of metals sold, the Group undertook a critical review of its previously announced expansion plan to produce at a rate of 3,5 million ounces of refined platinum per year by the end of 2006. The outcome of this review was a

positive relationships with its unions and associations.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure for the year rose by 23,9% to R7,42 billion. Of this, R3,95 billion was spent on maintaining and replacing production, R3,27 billion was spent on expansion projects, and interest of R200,5 million was capitalized.

Outlook for 2004


Anglo Platinums refined platinum production, net of an expected increase in the refining pipeline, is planned to increase to approximately 2,45 million ounces in 2004. At steady-state operations, every effort will be made to optimize existing available Merensky in preference to UG2 ore reserves, which should result in a slower rate of replacement of Merensky by UG2 production than originally planned.

Mining cost inflation over the last few years has been considerably higher than core inflation. The cumulative effect of this, in combination with reduced revenues caused by the strong rand and lower overall PGM prices, is that operating margins have been severely eroded. Clearly the Group cannot continue to accept cost increases greater than the rate of inflation and consequently management has initiated a Group-wide cost-cutting and restructuring initiative. The short-term target of this initiative is to restrict unit cash cost increases in 2004 to the official consumer price inflation rate. In light of current market circumstances and in line with the revised expansion programme, capital expenditure will continue to be deferred without adversely affecting planned production levels.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > RUSTENBURG SECTION OVERVIEW: MINING Rustenburg Section
To facilitate more effective and direct management, Rustenburg Section has been split into three separate mining units: the West Mine comprising Frank, Townlands, and Paardekraal shafts; the East Mine comprising Turffontein, Bleskop, and Brakspruit shafts; and the Waterval Mine. The Rustenburg UG2 Project is expanding UG2 mining at Frank, Townlands, Paardekraal, Bleskop, and Brakspruit shafts, as well as the Waterval Mine.
Above: UG2 concentrator plant, Rustenburg Section

Costs
The cash on-mine cost per ton milled for the steady-state operations increased by 6,8%, primarily because of the benefit of the higher volumes achieved on the West Mine. The cash on-mine cost per equivalent refined platinum ounce increased by 6,0%.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure, at R1,55 billion, was higher than in 2002, with R1,43 billion of ongoing and replacement expenditure (including Phase 2 of the Rustenburg UG2 Project) and R112,7 million of expansion capital expenditure on Phase 1 of the Rustenburg UG2 Project.

Production
Replacement of Merensky with UG2 production continued during 2003. Equivalent refined platinum production from steady-state shafts fell by 40 200 ounces to 571 300 ounces, reflecting a decrease in available Merensky reserves. The Rustenburg UG2 Project achieved a 51% increase in tons milled, and equivalent refined platinum ounces increased by 58% owing to higher tons at an improved grade at the Waterval Mine. The new plant exceeded design throughput for the year and the ore-sorting plant is being commissioned to improve head grades and to make better use of the available milling capacity.

Outlook
Production will rise in 2004 with additional output from the UG2 Project, partly offset by lower Merensky production. Every effort will be made to optimize available Merensky in preference to UG2 reserves, which should result in a slowdown of the rate of replacement of Merensky with UG2 production. As part of a Group wide initiative, there will be a particular focus on cost control and restructuring.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > AMANDELBULT SECTION

Amandelbult Section Production


Amandelbult focused on optimizing its new UG2 mechanized sections during 2003, and on improving its ore reserves. The mine milled 6 956 000 tons, slightly less than in 2002. Production of equivalent refined platinum fell by 32 900 ounces to pre-2002 levels because of lower grades and recoveries resulting from increased UG2 opencast production, the substitution of UG2 for Merensky production, and a shift in Merensky production from No. 1 Shaft to No. 2 Shaft, which has a slightly lower grade. Difficult geology led to lower production from the Merensky operations during the year at No. 2 Shaft, owing to the lack of mineable face length and to poor ground conditions. The shortfall was offset by the mining of additional conventional UG2 ore at Elandskuil, the optimization of opencast grade control, and additional UG2 opencast production.

In addition to above-inflation increases in the cost of labour and steel, and higher safety-related expenditure, Amandelbult incurred extra contracting mining costs to produce tons to replace the shortfall in Merensky production. The lower grade and recovery associated with the different ore mix resulted in Amandelbult producing fewer platinum ounces in relation to tons milled, leading to an 18% increase in the cash on-mine cost per equivalent refined platinum ounce. At R2 607 per ounce, however, the unit cost was still the lowest in the Group.

Above: Amandelbult Section

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure for the year amounted to R435 million, allocated in its entirety to maintaining and replacing production.

Outlook
Sound progress has been made on issues which affected Merensky production in 2003. Production is expected to be constant in 2004. Costs will be tightly managed in line with the Groups objective of keeping unit cost increases at the official consumer price inflation rate in 2004.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > UNION SECTION

Union Section Production


Union Section had the benefit of additional concentrator capacity in 2003, and the new UG2 plant module, which was commissioned in 2002, was in use for the whole of 2003. The new plant processed fresh underground ore, including additional production from the mechanized declines, while spare capacity at Ivan Plant processed opencast UG2 ore and tailings. Production rose by 28,9% to 5 882 000 tons milled, while equivalent refined platinum ounces rose by 15,0%, the additional tons being offset by lower grades and recoveries associated with the opencast and tailings material. Notwithstanding the overall decrease in grade and recovery, underground grades improved in comparison to 2002 grades because of better grade control and the addition of production from the mechanized declines. Considering the overall mix of material, recovery losses were well contained by improvements in the metallurgical cycle. The mine successfully converted from the five-day week work cycle, which had been implemented on a trial basis, back to the eleven-shift-per-fortnight cycle.

Costs
Cash on-mine costs per ton milled fell because of the relatively high volume of low-cost surface material processed. The cash on-mine cost per equivalent refined platinum ounce however increased by 9,2%, mainly as a result of the lower grades associated with the surface material.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure for the year amounted to R606 million. This all related to maintaining and replacing current production capacity, and included the continued development of the new declines that are part of the UG2 Project.

> LTIFR
2000 2001 2002 2003

Outlook
With good quality reserves available to replace declining production from Richard and Spud shafts, and sound infrastructure across the mine, Union Section is well positioned to maintain its current production levels in 2004. Cost control will be given top priority, and the mine intends to keep unit cost increases at or below the official consumer price inflation rate in 2004.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > PPRUST

Potgietersrust Platinums (PPRust) Production


PPRusts successful year was built on its ability to bring the Zwartfontein South Pit into production in good time. This gave access to higher-grade ore, which enabled the overall head grade to be improved substantially. Material from the Sandsloot and Zwartfontein South pits was milled separately in batches to enable plantoperating parameters to be optimized in relation to the characteristics of each orebody. Plant availability was improved through the better integration of business systems, and throughput increased by 2,1% to 4 465 000 tons milled. This increase, combined with improved grades, resulted in the production of an additional 27 100 equivalent refined platinum ounces, an increase of 16,5%.

and the cash on-mine cost per equivalent refined platinum ounce rose by 8,9%. PPRust experienced higher-than-coreinflation labour cost increases, and also incurred a higher level of safety-related expenditure.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure for the year of R338,7 million included the cost of the establishment of the Zwartfontein South Pit, the replacement of some haul trucks and pit mining equipment, and the establishment of infrastructure to ensure the long-term sustainable supply of water.

Above: The Sandsloot Pit at PPRust

> LTIFR

Outlook
PPRust will continue to mine both the Sandsloot and Zwartfontein South pits in 2004, and production of equivalent refined platinum ounces is expected to be similar to the 2003 level. Costs will come under the same detailed review as at the other operations, with the objective of keeping unit cost increases at or below official consumer price inflation.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > LEPLATS

Lebowa Platinum Mines (Leplats) Production


Leplats continued to operate the UG2 and Merensky production areas at capacity during 2003, and focused heavily on development to maintain future operating flexibility in the face of complex geological conditions. Tons milled were almost the same as in 2003, and equivalent refined platinum production was maintained at 105 000 ounces.
Above: Surface infrastructure at Leplats

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure to maintain and replace production amounted to R267 million in 2003.

Outlook
Equivalent refined platinum production will be maintained in 2004. The extensive development of new mining areas will provide the opportunity of milling additional tons if plant capacity is available. Controlling unit costs will be a high focus area in 2004 and Leplats will continue to address the challenge of matching its fixedcost base with its relatively low production volume.

Costs
Cash on-mine costs per ton milled increased by 14,7%, and the cash on-mine cost per equivalent refined platinum ounce increased by 13,9%. This reflects the cost of additional expenditure incurred to maintain the level of ore reserves, increased costs of labour and steel, and higher safety-related expenditure.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > BRPM

Bafokeng-Rasimone Platinum Mine (BRPM) Production


BRPMs main production focus in 2003 was to complete the ramp-up of underground mining efficiencies and volumes at the North and South shafts. This was largely achieved, and tons broken increased by 24,2%. This resulted in a significant increase in the volume of underground material milled, and there was a commensurate reduction in the volume of surface material milled. The plant again operated at capacity for the year, milling 2 481 000 tons, but the improved grade and associated recovery from increased underground production resulted in the production of an additional 22 000 equivalent refined platinum ounces. Total equivalent refined platinum production of 183 500 ounces was 13,6% higher than in 2002.

However, the higher grade and recovery achieved from the underground material, combined with improving mining efficiencies, largely offset the additional costs. Cash on-mine costs per equivalent refined platinum ounce rose by 1,7%.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure of R298 million was incurred in 2003, mainly on extensions to the shaft complex and ongoing development.

Outlook
Most production measures were in line with design parameters and, from 2004, the mine will be reported as a steady-state operation, notwithstanding that full PGM production volume and optimum cost efficiency will be achieved via incremental grade improvement. Equivalent refined platinum production is expected to exceed 200 000 ounces in 2004. The ongoing focus on underground mining practices and productivity is expected to result in improved cost efficiency in 2004, and unit cost increases should not exceed official consumer price inflation.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: MINING > MODIKWA PLATINUM MINE

Modikwa Platinum Mine (non-managed) Production


Notwithstanding the performance in relation to the steep ramp-up planned for 2003, tons milled and equivalent refined platinum ounces increased substantially in comparison with 2002. Equivalent refined platinum production in 2003 was 91 000 ounces, compared with 27 300 ounces in 2002. All of this was delivered to Anglo Platinum for smelting and refining, with 50% attributable to Anglo Platinum and the other 50% purchased from the other joint venture partner, a consortium led by African Rainbow Minerals. Given the relatively low ore reserve position, certain adverse geological conditions and a slow build-up in crew efficiencies resulted in lower-thanexpected tons and grade. In addition, significant additional costs were incurred to replace reserves lost owing to these geological factors. Sub-optimal crew efficiencies were addressed by a sharp focus on development

and performance management systems, with appropriate training programmes. The introduction in the last quarter of 2003 of additional experienced crews has proved beneficial.

Costs
Unit costs for 2003 were high because of ramp-up production volumes and grade, as well as the costs incurred to replace ore reserves.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: PROCESSING > WATERVAL SMELTER OVERVIEW: PROCESSING Waterval Smelter Production
Waterval Smelter processes concentrate from the mines, as well as the furnace matte produced by the Mortimer and Polokwane smelters. 2003 saw the simultaneous commissioning of the ACP Plant and Slag-cleaning Furnace and the continued operation of existing plants. In the context of this highly challenging situation, Waterval Smelter performed well. Commissioning activity resulted in a temporary build-up of metal in the pipeline in the middle of the year. A focus on establishing optimum operating practices for the new equipment yielded quick results, and by year-end all excess stocks had been cleared. The ACP Plant ramp-up proceeded smoothly and it will achieve full throughput in the second half of 2004. A partial rebuild was carried out on the Pierce-Smith converters and the old acid plant was refurbished. These plants will be retained on standby until completion of the second ACP converter in 2006. beginning of 2003 and the entire cost of running the new facility was borne on working costs, while the old Pierce-Smith converters and acid plant were run in tandem with the ACP Plant for the full year. The contract to use an Xstrata furnace to process furnace slag was terminated at the beginning of the year, and this cost was replaced with that of running the new Slagcleaning Furnace. The net effect was that total cash operating costs rose by R130,6 million, or 23,8%. Platinum ounces produced by the smelter increased by 9,1%, resulting in a cash unit cost increase of 13,5%.

Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure totalled R300 million in the year, of which R78 million was for ongoing items and R222 million for expansion, including costs associated with the ACP Plant and Slag-cleaning Furnace.

The Polokwane Smelter was successfully commissioned in March 2003, ahead of schedule and within budget. At full capacity of 650 000 tons per year, the modern Polokwane Smelter will process concentrate from existing and new mines on the Eastern Limb, as well as provide some backup capability for the Waterval and Mortimer smelting processes.
Above and below: The Polokwane Smelter, which was commissioned successfully ahead of schedule in 2003, and will make a significant contribution to the Groups overall processing performance

total costs for the year were slightly higher than anticipated. Unit costs per ton treated were satisfactory and with the build-up of volumes Polokwane Smelter should make a significant contribution to the improvement of the Groups overall processing performance.

Capital expenditure
Total capital expenditure for the year amounted to R493 million, primarily consisting of expenditure associated with the initial project vote.

The Smelter performed at levels that exceeded expectations, at times running at design throughput levels in the ramp-up stage and with very good technical performance. The furnace is able to treat high chrome-bearing concentrate from the UG2 Reef both efficiently and effectively.

Outlook
In 2004, the Smelter is expected to perform at the same levels as those achieved in the second half of 2003, in line with the build-up of Eastern Limb mining output. However, its capacity is far in excess of the volumes it will receive in 2004 and optimum cost efficiency will therefore not yet be achieved.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: PROCESSING > RBMR

Rustenburg Base Metal Refiners (RBMR) Production


The two metallurgical processing plants the magnetic concentration plant (MC Plant) and the base metal refinery plant (BMR) performed exceptionally well over the year, achieving record throughput levels. Base metal output (nickel, copper, and cobalt sulphate) exceeded the BMRs design capacity, resulting also in the production of nickel cathode being 13% higher than the levels achieved in 2002. Efficiencies and productivity also improved over the year, measured in terms of tons of base metals produced per employee. The de-bottlenecking of the MC Plant to ease the treatment of expanded mine production proceeded according to schedule.

Capital expenditure
In line with the expansion review announced in 2003, the refining strategy was amended, resulting in the deferral and reduction of the capital expenditure associated with further de-bottlenecking of the BMR. This resulted in an allocation of only R83 million to capital expenditure, lower than the figure of R273 million projected in 2002. Of this amount, R28 million was committed to ongoing capital items and R55 million to expansion projects.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > OVERVIEW: PROJECTS OVERVIEW: PROJECTS


The Projects Division, established two years ago, is responsible for the feasibility study, evaluation, and execution phases of major expansion and replacement projects required to meet the Groups production targets. During the second half of 2003, the Group reviewed all aspects of its strategy and expansion programme against the backdrop of unfavourable economic circumstances. The impact of the review on Anglo Platinums project suite was to slow down the implementation of a number of mining projects by between one and three years. Ore treatment, smelting, and refining projects will continue to be expanded commensurately with the build-up in the mining profile. In terms of announced projects, the BRPM and Modikwa ramp-up operations were unaffected. On the Eastern Limb of the Bushveld Complex, the development of the Twickenham and Der Brochen projects was slowed down. Anglo Platinum remains in discussion with its BEE partners in the Ga-Phasha PGM Project and Booysendal Joint Venture and will complete bankable feasibility studies in due course, following which announcements on each project will be made. On the Western Limb of the Bushveld Complex, the Board approved the PSA with Aquarius Platinum (South Africa). This project continues as originally planned. However, the Pandora Project implementation will be slowed down in consultation with the Groups partners. The Rustenburg UG2 Project, which sources ore from a combination of new declines and existing shafts, will be optimized to include the higher platinum-content Merensky ore rather than solely the originally envisaged UG2 Reef. The concentrators will be modified accordingly. The Western Limb Tailings Retreatment Project is ahead of schedule, with its Phase 1 commissioning in progress; however, the second phase has been slowed down.

Mining opportunities will continue to be evaluated, both for the purposes of Group expansion and replacement of depleted reserves at existing operations. Where projects have been slowed down, the additional time will be utilized to further improve knowledge of the orebody and optimize mine design. In addition, de-bottlenecking of processing capacity will continue and further processing project announcements will be made in due course.

At the two brownfield shafts, development access to the UG2 Reef proceeded ahead of schedule and stoping operations commenced. The strategic review proposed several steps to minimize the negative impact of the prevailing economic climate. Consequently, the Boschfontein East portion of the project will be slowed down. The Boschfontein West Mine was modified to utilize some of the pre-existing Merensky Reef infrastructure in place of two of the three originally proposed declines in the cluster. The proportion of UG2 Reef that was to be accessed from Frank and Townlands shafts was reduced in favour of Merensky Reef. Mining methods at these shafts were adjusted with a view to maximizing head grade and extraction ratios. The need for the 400 000 tons per month concentrator expansion was investigated in light of a revised holistic exploitation strategy for the complete Rustenburg mineable resource. Further debottlenecking of the very successful existing plant and its possible upgrading may make the additional plant unnecessary. These studies will be finalized early in 2004 and could result in both a capital and a production change to the announced scope of the project.

Safety
Great emphasis was placed on safety in all project execution activities, inherently a high-risk area. There were no attributable fatalities and a total of 33 LTIs for the year, resulting in a low LTIFR of 0,33 per 200 000 man-hours, compared with 0,24 in 2002. The data includes both surface and underground construction activities. The Group and its contracting companies worked in partnership throughout the year to achieve a strong emphasis on safety.

Preliminary design and project engineering work progressed well in 2003, including analysis of the three-dimensional seismic survey conducted in late 2002. These results, together with the continuing drilling programme, improved the structural geological model of the region. This aids the evaluation of the Merensky Reef mine layout and shaft-positioning options, allowing account to be taken of the synergies available from the combined joint venture properties. The finalization of all outstanding conditions precedent to the JV is expected to be concluded early in 2004.

Twickenham Platinum Mine


The agreement reached with Government in pursuit of the aims of the Minerals and Petroleum Resources Development Act (MPRDA) and the Mining Charter affected the original scope of this project substantially. The originally announced R2,7 billion (in 2002 terms) projects mining area comprised the farms Twickenham, Hackney, and Paschaskraal. In terms of the agreement, a 50:50 joint venture with a BEE consortium Pelawan was established. Paschaskraal was combined with the farm Klipfontein and with the down-dip State-owned mineral rights on the farms of Avoca and De Kamp. This potential project is now known as the Ga-Phasha PGM Project. The change in mining areas necessitated a redesign of the originally proposed mine layouts. The Twickenham Platinum Mine, 100% owned by Anglo Platinum, will exploit the Twickenham and Hackney areas only, initially mining the UG2 Reef. A mining authorization for these farms was granted in December 2002, nine months later than anticipated. Capital expenditure for the 250 000 tons per month project will be in the order of R3,4 billion (2004 terms). The project is still expected to produce 160 000 ounces of refined platinum and 176 000 ounces of refined palladium at steady-state production. During 2003, on-site project activities progressed well at the Hackney and Twickenham shafts, with the development of the portals and initial decline-sinking taking place. Establishment of the mine infrastructure progressed well and permanent electricity and water supplies were commissioned. Access roads to the shafts were established and staff shortages addressed. The relocation of affected villagers on the mining footprint was successfully completed. The Group review of this project, conducted in the last quarter of 2003, highlighted that, under the prevailing economic climate, the Twickenham project development should be slowed down. Operations at a reduced level will continue, pending the re-evaluation of the scope and project schedule.

Western Limb Tailings Retreatment


The tailings retreatment plant is situated near the Brakspruit Shaft and will draw feedstock from a number of tailings dams in the Klipfontein and Waterval areas. Construction progressed well throughout the year and the plant was commissioned at year-end. The full operating capacity of 450 000 tons per month for Phase 1 is expected to be achieved during the first quarter of 2004, which will yield an annual average output of 70 000 ounces of refined platinum and 17 000 ounces of refined palladium between 2004 and 2006. Phase 2 of the project, which entails a doubling of production to 900 000 tons per month, was deferred for a year in the light of unfavourable economic circumstances. However, de-bottlenecking of Phase 1 in 2004 should further improve capacity in the interim. Capital expenditure was approved at R1,6 billion (2003 terms). Phase 1 of the project has progressed as planned.

(45%), Lonmin Platinum (45%), Northam (5%), and the Bapo Ba Mogale Tribe (5%). The Competition Board and the Competition Tribunal approved the venture. The parties will cooperate as participants in the joint venture and intend to utilize the existing infrastructure at Eastern Platinum Mine (EPM) to gain access to the mineral rights area adjacent to EPM. The capacity of the existing EPM concentrator is to be expanded by 120 000 tons per month. A new 200 000 tons per month concentrator will be constructed on the Pandora mine area, adjacent to EPM, and decline shaft systems will be installed, all of which will enable the joint venture to attain full tonnage production some six years after commencement. Steady-state production is ultimately envisaged at 230 000 ounces of refined platinum and 110 000 ounces of refined palladium per annum. The capital cost of this project when originally announced in 2002 was R2,8 billion (R3,3 billion in 2004 terms). Anglo Platinum is responsible only for its portion of the capital expenditure in the joint venture and will refine only its portion of production. The surface rights authorizations have been secured. The only statutory matter still outstanding is the consent of the Department of Minerals and Energy. The delay in obtaining authorizations, together with the current unfavourable economic environment, has resulted in a slowing down and possible re-scoping of the project. It is now envisaged that the earliest production will be in 2006. The joint venture is however investigating the potential of early production initiatives and the staged implementation of the project.

annum at full capacity, with first production expected in 2007. The total project cost is estimated at US$92 million (2004 terms). The concentrate produced by the mine will be smelted and refined by Anglo Platinum in South Africa. Anglo Platinum will hold a majority shareholding in Unki and will also manage the operations. An interim management agreement has been reached pending finalization of the venture agreements. The parties will fund the initial development phase from existing cash resources and borrowing facilities. Discussions are being held with indigenous parties with a view to their acquiring an equity interest in Unki. Excavations for the Lucillia Poort Dam were completed and civil construction progressed satisfactorily on all areas of the site. The Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority completed the installation of a 33-kilovolt temporary power supply at the end of the year. The Rietfontein village relocation commenced.

Pooling and Sharing Agreement (PSA) with Aquarius Platinum (South Africa)
Anglo Platinum and Aquarius Platinum (South Africa) announced in June 2003 that agreement had been reached to mine contiguous properties on their respective Rustenburg and Kroondal lease areas. The agreement provides for the parties to pool their assets, while retaining ownership thereof, and to share the proceeds equally. Anglo Platinum will provide access to a portion of the UG2 orebody on Rustenburg Platinum Mines (RPM) lease area and Aquarius Platinum (South Africa) will provide access to its existing Kroondal Platinum Mine (KPM) lease area and infrastructure. All outstanding conditions precedent were met in 2003. The parties will utilize the existing KPM infrastructure to gain access to the RPM orebody down-dip of KPM. A new 250 000 tons per month UG2 concentrator will be constructed for completion in 2005 and additional shaft capacity will be sunk. The venture will have mineable reserves and resources totalling 69 million tons, which are expected to allow mining until 2016. Production will initially be in the order of 140 000 annual ounces of refined platinum, rising to 280 000 ounces of refined platinum and 130 000 ounces of refined palladium during 2006. Aquarius Platinum (South Africa) will continue to honour its existing KPM lease area concentrate off-take agreement with

Unki
In April 2003, Anglo Platinum and Anglo American Corporation Zimbabwe Limited announced that they were to proceed with the initial phase of the development of the Unki Platinum Project, situated near Gweru on Zimbabwes Great Dyke. The project is still subject to certain Zimbabwean and South African regulatory and fiscal approvals, and the development costs are under review in light of the economic and exchange rate environment in Zimbabwe. The project involves the development of an 85 000 tons per month mine that will include an on-site concentrator. The mine will produce concentrate containing some 58 000 ounces of refined platinum and 40 000 ounces of refined palladium per

Impala Refining Services Ltd; this has been fixed at a total of some 586 000 ounces of platinum in concentrate. From 2005, Anglo Platinum will also treat concentrate from the new UG2 concentrator being constructed. It is estimated that production will become fully attributable to Anglo Platinum in 2009. The capital expenditure for the establishment of the venture is expected to be in the region of R810 million (2004 terms) and will be equally funded by Anglo Platinum and Aquarius Platinum (South Africa).

Der Brochen
As a consequence of the agreement reached with Government in 2002 in terms of the MPRDA and Mining Charter, the originally proposed mining area of the project, south of the Steelpoort fault, incorporating the farms Der Brochen, Richmond, Helena, Booysendal, and Buttonshope, was restructured. A 50:50 joint venture with a BEE consortium, Khumama Platinum (Pty) Ltd (Khumama), now to be absorbed into Mvelaphanda, was established over the Booysendal and Buttonshope areas. This project is known as the Booysendal Joint Venture. The Der Brochen Platinum Mine, 100% owned by Anglo Platinum, will now exploit the Der Brochen, Richmond, and Helena areas only. A mining authorization for these farms was granted in April 2003. The project is in the conceptual design phase, and site activities are limited to exploration drilling and land management. Current economic conditions necessitate further study of this project.

Processing projects in development Anglo Platinum Converting Process (ACP) Plant


The objectives of the ACP project were to set a new global benchmark for the control of sulphur dioxide emissions (20 tons per day by the end of 2004), while increasing the available converter capacity for the Groups expansion programme. The plant, developed in conjunction with Ausmelt and others, utilizes a Sirosmelt process adapted to the requirements of nickel-copper matte smelting. This innovative technology was extensively tested during the project design and study phase. This has led to very successful results of the smelting carried out as part of the commissioning and rampup processes, which began in March 2002. Progress throughout 2003 continued according to plan and it is anticipated that ACP Phase A will be fully operational during the second quarter of 2004. The phasing out of the existing PierceSmith converters and old acid plant is planned once the second standby ACP reactor, Phase B, is commissioned. This is anticipated to occur during the fourth quarter of 2005, with the first slag tap scheduled for the first quarter of 2006. The project capital expenditure to the end of 2003 (originally announced at R1,45 billion in 2000 terms) was on budget, and is envisaged to be some R2,00 billion (2004 terms) upon the completion of Phase B.

The capital expenditure was announced at R1,31 billion (2001 terms). Cost escalation was below the inflation rate, the final cost being some R1,45 billion in 2004 terms.

Waterval Slag-cleaning Furnace


Under normal practice, slag is returned to the primary concentrate-smelting electric furnaces to recover contained metal values. However, with increasing UG2 concentrates being treated, the recycling of chrome creates constraints in the furnaces because of the elevated melting points of the slag. The project was designed to alleviate this condition, raise the recovery of the contained metal values, and create additional capacity in the primary furnaces. Construction was completed during the first quarter of 2003 and the facility was handed over to Waterval Smelter for operation. The capital cost of the project was as planned, at some R280 million (2004 terms).

Precious Metal Refinery (PMR) Expansion


The PMR continues to be involved in a number of de-bottlenecking and optimization projects, executed sequentially, that will enable the Groups annual PGM production targets to be met. During 2003, construction continued on the Gold Solvent Extraction and Insoluble Metals plants. The final phase of debottlenecking is expected to be complete by the end of 2005. In the light of the slowed expansion programme, the capital profile of this series of projects was modified to align them with the new build-up of production. It is envisaged that the total capital expenditure will be in the order of R1,25 billion in 2004 terms.

Polokwane Smelter
The smelter is now substantially complete, having been successfully commissioned in March 2003, and has performed exceptionally well. The furnace operated at design power levels (68 Megawatts) and chrome levels greater than 2% for sustained periods during the latter part of 2003.

REVIEW OF MINERAL RESERVES AND RESOURCES The Bushveld Complex


The geological source of Anglo Platinums current production is the Bushveld Complex of South Africa, the largest known layered igneous complex of its type in the world. It extends some 350 kilometres from east to west and some 250 kilometres from north to south and is roughly saucer-shaped. At the rim of the saucer, pyroxenites, norites, gabbros, and chromitites are found inter-layered in a variety of combinations. Unique to the Bushveld is the presence of two strataform deposits that can be traced for hundreds of kilometres along the rim, containing economically exploitable quantities of PGMs. Since mining first began in the 1920s, the uppermost of the two layers, the Merensky Reef, has been the most important PGM source; it is especially rich in platinum, which makes up some 60% of the 4E grades quoted by Anglo Platinum. At a vertical distance of between 16 and 400 metres below the Merensky Reef, depending on location, the second PGMbearing layer known as the UG2 chromitite can be found. This has become an important alternative source of PGMs in recent years. Although narrow (the Merensky and UG2 reefs are generally mined at a stoping width of less than a metre), these tabular orebodies extend laterally over hundreds of square kilometres, resulting in extensive Mineral Resources. On the Northern Limb of the Bushveld, the UG2 is not developed on Anglo Platinums properties. A layer known as the Platreef, which is substantially thicker than the Merensky and UG2 reefs, occurs and can support open-pit mining operations to depths in excess of 200 metres. The Merensky and Platreef yield meaningful quantities of nickel and copper as by-products of PGMs. Although chromitite in the UG2 may hold potential for economic gain, this has not been considered in the contained monetary values for Reserve purposes. Other base metals in the UG2 are not significant but are recovered and the value obtained is accounted for in economic valuations.

Overview of exploration South Africa


Anglo Platinums exploration efforts on the Bushveld Complex are directly linked to the Groups expansion. Accordingly, there was an increase in the tempo and volume of exploration, which once again received a high level of focus during 2003. There was good progress on all fronts and achievement of targets for the year. The Eastern Limb saw the bulk of the activity, with several of the projects progressing well into feasibility studies. Since acquiring its portfolio of Bushveld mineral rights, the Group has systematically explored and categorized its Resources in preparation for expansion or replacement of depleting operations. This has meant that all current exploration is geared toward evaluation and feasibility studies, as opposed to grassroots discovery work. The programmes therefore focus on borehole drilling (mainly diamond drilling) and geophysical (mainly aeromagnetic and 3-dimensional seismic) surveys. By far the largest component of the exploration

South African Minerals Legislation


The South African Parliament passed the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act on 26 June 2002 and the President signed it into law in October 2002. It brings about a radical departure from the common law concept of privately owned mineral rights and provides for a system in which, as in most other countries, the State grants and regulates prospecting and mining rights. Among others, the objectives of the Act are to: Promote equitable access to the nations mineral and petroleum resources by all the people of South Africa; Expand opportunities for historically disadvantaged South Africans to enter the mineral industry and to benefit from the exploitation of the nations mineral resources; Promote economic growth and mineral development in the Republic; Promote employment and advance the social and economic welfare of all South Africans; Provide for security of tenure in respect of present prospecting, exploration, mining, and production operations; and Ensure that holders of mining rights contribute towards the socio-economic development of the areas in which they operate.

The most important provisions of the Act for Anglo Platinum are those that provide for the transfer of the present privately held mineral rights to new-order mining rights under the Act. Anglo Platinum is ready to comply with the legislative requirements for conversion and has reached an agreement with the Government that secures new mining rights in respect of all its present mining operations and the expansions already announced.

budget is consumed by drilling and, in 2003, 667 kilometres of exploration diamond drilling was completed in the South African exploration areas. A large volume of chemical analysis for PGMs and base metals, as well as detailed mineralogical examination, flowed from the drilling programme. Some of the highlights in 2003 were: The JSE adoption of the SAMREC code (which embodies many of the JORC principles) for the reporting of Mineral Resources and Reserves has prompted a fundamental revision of the Anglo Platinum approach to Resource and Reserve reporting. The manner and execution of Resource estimation and classification has been revised from first principles to a more international and SAMREC-compliant format, whereby a qualifiable risk-based (confidence) approach forms the foundation of much of the classification technique. Although there are several components of Resource classification, one of the primary considerations is the influence of estimation error. Estimation methodology involves estimating values at points between datasampling points; the estimation error is based on the sampling configuration, the spatial variography of the grades, and the block support being estimated and is particular to each deposit or geological subsets thereof, which are then used to determine and plan the desired sampling density requirements. The Resource classification reflects the competent persons assessment. Refer to the definitions of Reserves and Resources for more information on the level of confidence deemed acceptable. All projects and operations have been treated appropriately in the current transition to the new procedure of classification and reporting. Achieving quantifiable classification has been one of the main drivers of the dramatic

increase in Resource drilling accomplished in recent times. Several enhancements are under consideration for the 2004 Resource estimation and conversion to Reserve process. External auditing of the entire function has verified the integrity and completeness of the transition to the new Resource reporting process. As noted above, a total of 667 kilometres of diamond drilling was achieved in the year, with up to 45 rigs worked under tight production constraints to achieve the desired drilling tempo. This is a substantial achievement in any terms and far exceeds all previously known local and international records for a single corporate entity in a similar time period. Much of this coring was directed at Resource classification, estimation, and evaluation of known and identified deposits. A substantial portion was completed in rugged and tortuous terrain, where logistical support was difficult. 2004 will see a similar level of activity, continuing the process of asset verification and quantification. During the period, a total of 1,1 million manhours were worked. Anglo Platinum has developed, in partnership with others, an effective and robust geological database and logging system. The system has permitted the electronic accumulation of data, its safe storage, and the prompt transmission of data to a central storage facility aimed at compiling, validating, and consolidating data prior to the Resource modelling process. Coupled with this, all core was successfully logged and sampled, validated, and verified. Further system enchancement will continue in 2004. A central database was invaluable in facilitating the Resource estimation process already referred to.

Conditional simulation, a risk assessment tool, was introduced. This technique enables the geologist to assess and quantify the risk for various parameters of the Resource, such as tonnage, width, grade, and content. Mining rates and a variety of financial parameters can also be incorporated, assisting in the definition of extraction viability. Assay capacity has been steadily increased to accommodate the additional drilling load, along with a commensurate enhancement of quality procedures. This will receive additional emphasis with the introduction of new internationally certified standards, coupled with continued revision of sampling quality protocols. All samples are treated in duplicate (100% replication) and 10% of all sample material is subject to external laboratory re-assay. It is believed that corporate governance is well served by this exacting and exhaustive process. The revised sampling quality protocols will assist in strengthening confidence in the Groups processes and in its Resource quantification and classification. A comprehensive geographical information system was built and implemented, aimed at addressing the IT needs of the exploration, mineral rights, corporate, and mine design teams. It provides live status reporting and scalable image compilations of the Groups assets. Further development will link the mineral rights database with other datasets (geological, geochemical, geophysical, remote sensing, legal, mineral tenure, mineralogical, and similar) to assist in prompt decision-making. Three-dimensional seismic surveys were completed on Styldrift, Amandelbult

Section, and Rustenburg Sections deeper Resources. These contributed significantly to confidence in their Resources, mainly in respect of structures and continuity. Benefits include enhanced information on the full 3-dimensional volume of major stratigraphic horizons, resulting in a reduction of the risk of encountering unknown large, catastrophic-type structural features, such as potholes, faults, and replacement features. The surveys add value to the delineation of Resources and further enhance confidence in Resource estimates. In accordance with long-standing procedure, many of the geological holes drilled obtain additional reef intersections dedicated to mineralogical and metallurgical testing. These are aimed at enhancing the geological understanding of reef variations (including alteration zones and effects) and provide valuable metallurgical recovery information. High-resolution aeromagnetic surveys using the new-generation Midas system were flown over the majority of Anglo Platinums properties, enhancing structural interpretations and helping achieve the objectives of safe and productive mining. The surveys also provided information relating to strategic targets and assisted with Resource targeting, in turn increasing the efficiency of future exploration or Resource information retrieval. Core scanning was introduced as part of the geological core-logging procedure, ensuring a permanent high-quality digital record of all reef intersections and their immediate hanging-wall and footwall stratigraphy. Data in this format is scaled and may be used to correlate stratigraphic horizons and layers within a project area and indeed across the Bushveld Complex. Research and development is also being applied to the core scanner, which could include spectral scanning.

represents one of North Americas premier exploration projects and is certainly one of the newest and most exciting platinumpalladium discoveries in recent years. By the end of 2003, joint venture partners Pacific North West Capital Corporation and Anglo Platinum spent nearly CDN$12 million on mineral exploration at the River Valley property. Six phases of diamond drilling (2000 to 2003) primarily tested targets developed from surface exploration, with drilling designed to test the down-dip and strike extensions of known surface mineralization. More than 83 000 metres of drilling in 410 drill holes have been completed on the property. The River Valley intrusion, a Paleoproterozoic (~2,5 billion years) rift-related layered mafic intrusion, is located about 100 road kilometres (60 kilometres direct) northeast of the city of Greater Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Work, since it started in June 1999, has revealed the presence of potentially commercial base metal sulphideassociated PGM deposits along the northern contact of the intrusion. The River Valley property covers over 5 184 hectares (52 square kilometres) and includes eight main areas of contact-type PGM-Cu-Ni sulphide mineralization (northwest to southeast): Dana Lake (North and South), Banshee Lake, Lismers Ridge (North and South), MacDonald, Varley, Azen Creek, Jacksons Flats, and Razor. An independent evaluation (October 2002) reports in-situ Measured and Indicated Resources of 825 900 ounces of platinum, palladium, and gold (3E) with Inferred Resources of 200 600 ounces, totalling 1 026 500 ounces in 23,44 million tons. Exploration for reef-type PGM targets has not yet begun on the property; almost all of the work to date has focused on the contact environment, where the igneous complex comes into contact with the wall rocks and represents a steeply dipping contact zone. However, there are indications that reef-type mineralization may be present, adding an entirely new dimension to the potential of the property and the intrusion. The exploration drilling programme has completed in-fill drilling of the known Mineral Resource and is now focusing on new target areas along the southeast contact of the intrusion; a more than 6-kilometre strike length with potential for further Resources. Results from the deeper drilling at the Dana Lake South deposit were extremely encouraging: drill hole DL-154 returned 3,7 grams of platinum and palladium per ton over 68 metres, including 5,0 grams of platinum and palladium per ton over 47 metres,

9,7 grams of platinum and palladium per ton over 13 metres, and 19,0 grams of platinum and palladium per ton over 3 metres; this represents the highest grade and width diamond-drill intersection to date. Early results from drilling in the southeastern part of the property are encouraging, and drilling is expected to continue late into 2004. An updated Mineral Resource study is currently underway. It must be noted that River Valley is a palladium-dominant deposit and that future exploration decisions will be affected by the palladium price.

Agnew Lake
The Agnew Lake property, located about 60 kilometres west of Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, covers the Agnew Lake intrusion, which is known to host anomalous and potentially economic concentrations of PGMs. The Agnew Lake intrusion is similar in age and composition to the River Valley intrusion: both contain contact-type sulphide-associated PGMs that are primarily hosted in fragment bearing rocks occurring proximal or at the margins of the intrusions. In July 2001, Anglo Platinum entered into an agreement with Pacific North West Capital Corporation and Platinum Group Metals Ltd, whereby Anglo Platinum may earn a 49,5% interest in the Agnew Lake Project by making certain cash payments and reimbursements (which have been made) and by completing CDN$6,0 million in exploration expenditure by 31 December 2004. Anglo Platinum can increase its interest in the property to 57% by completing a feasibility study, and to 60% by arranging 100% financing of the project to commercial production. To date, Anglo Platinum has financed approximately CDN$2,5 million in exploration at Agnew Lake. By entering into this agreement, Pacific North West Capital Corporation and Anglo Platinum have substantial interests in two of the three largest layered intrusions in the immediate Sudbury area. Most exploration activities, (diamond drilling, induced-polarization and magnetometer geophysical surveys, geological surveys, and prospecting) have concentrated on the contact region of the intrusion. Exploration activities at Agnew Lake in 2003 included diamond drilling, geological mapping, prospecting, and airborne geophysical surveying using the Spectrem Air multispectral AEM system. A diamond-drilling programme, aimed at following up some of the targets produced from the Spectrem survey, is planned for 2004.

International
Anglo Platinums partners took several exciting projects forward, including the joint venture with Pacific North West Capital Corporation (principally in the River Valley area near Sudbury, Ontario, Canada) and the Russian Urals project, a relationship with Eurasia Mining plc.

Russia Urals Platinum exploration


Fieldwork on the Tylai-Kosvinsky area at West Kytlim was hampered during 2003 by bureaucratic delays associated with the issue of the licence. To compensate for the delay, an application for an extension of the licence was made, which targets the recommencement of work at the beginning of the spring field season in April 2004. Budgeted work programmes include reconnaissance and traverse drilling, accompanied by trenching and bulk-sample processing using a 10 cubic metre per hour platinum washing plant. The objectives of this work are to establish grades and to test alternative recovery technologies targeting enhanced recovery of fine-grained platinum. It is planned to establish as rapidly as possible an initial small-scale, essentially self-funding, commercial operation. This will also provide scope for an early resolution of permitting and commercial issues, including sale of product, necessary for the establishment of any future operation. Preparation is also underway for a winter drilling programme on a second licence area at Sosva in the Northern Central Urals. The licence area covers a large alluvial basin at the junction of the Sosva and Sharp Rivers, which drain the platinum-bearing Denezhkin-Kamen layered intrusive complex. This work commenced in January 2004. Reconnaissance for buried, potentially highgrade, and previously unmined platinum placers is also in progress. This work has involved compilation and projection of geo-morphological and geological data characterizing the large Central Urals placer fields into the under-explored Northern and Sub-Polar Urals. The objective is to define additional new exploration areas.

Zone. This zone consists of a diffuse enrichment of PGMs that are typically found in association with base metal sulphide accumulations. There is a vertical stratigraphic relationship between the positions of the base metal and PGM peak values, which define the most desirable mining cut. This relationship characterizes the factors relevant to the success of recent Great Dyke PGM mining ventures. Resource drilling of the proposed mining footprint area continues with the purpose of improving the level of confidence for the final mine design.

South African operations Rustenburg Platinum Mines (RPM)


RPM holds mineral rights throughout the Bushveld Complex under various titles. These are being exploited on a fully operational basis at the Rustenburg, Amandelbult, and Union sections, covering a total of 39 111 hectares. BRPM is continuing under development on the farm Boschkoppie 104JQ and covers a total area of 3 362 hectares. The Modikwa JV with ARM Platinum is well advanced into the mining stage, although it is still under development.

Leplats is engaged in the mining of the UG2 and Merensky reefs on the farms Middelpunt 420KS, Umkoanestad 419KS, Brakfontein 464KS, Diamand 422KS, and Zeekoegat 421KS. The mining licences cover an area of 10 185 hectares. Rights to mine UG2 on portions of the farms Wintersveld 417 KS and Jagdlust 418 KS were obtained in 2003. These farms are adjacent to the Middelpunt Hill operations and will allow its optimal exploitation.

Zimbabwe Unki Platinum Project


Zimbabwes Great Dyke is the worlds second largest known repository of PGMs. It has several erosion-related remnants of sub-chambers, within which PGM-enriched zones are known to exist. Unki is located in the Shurugwi sub-chamber and will mine a PGM horizon known as the Main Sulphide

OPERATIONS REVIEW > REVIEW OF MINERAL RESERVES AND RESOURCES > OVERVIEW OF EXPLORATION

A Competent Person is a person who is a member of the South African Council for Natural Scientific Professions (SACNASP) and/or the Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA) and/or the South African Council for Professional Land Surveyors and Technical Surveyors (PLATO) or any other statutory South African or international body that is recognized by SAMREC. A Competent Person should have a minimum of five years experience relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity that person is undertaking. If the Competent Person is estimating or supervising the estimation of Mineral Resources, the relevant experience must be in the estimation, assessment, and evaluation of Mineral Resources. If the Competent Person is estimating or supervising the estimation of Mineral Reserves, the relevant experience must be in the estimation, assessment, evaluation, and economic extraction of Mineral Reserves.

Combined Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources


The tables from page 59 list the combined Mineral Reserves and Resources status of Anglo Platinums operations and projects. The table includes Resources associated with several projects not detailed in previous annual reports and that are therefore additional to the table of Reserves and Resources pertaining to existing operations and announced projects. The Mineral Resources quoted in the tabulations are over a minimum mining cut appropriate to the ore deposit. Mineral Reserves and Resources were subject to reclassification during the course of 2003, the impact of which was to increase their total. Combined with additions from exploration successes and the conversion of brown-field sites to project status, this led to Mineral Reserves and Resources rising to 904,5 million ounces of 4E, from 712,6 million ounces of 4E in 2002. This move is summarized in the table below.

The SAMREC Code for the reporting of Reserves and Resources has been applied. This is consistent with the reporting basis used by Anglo American plc. Various Competent Persons, as defined by the SAMREC Code of Practice, have prepared the Resource and Reserve figures quoted in this Report. They were reviewed and signed off by the signatories below:

General: Rounding of figures may result in computational discrepancies. 4E grade reported: sum of platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold grades. Reserves: Joint venture agreements are still being finalized. Once finalized, the above statement may be affected. 1. Merensky Reef Reserves changed because of Platreef being reported separately. Historically the Platreef and the Merensky Reef reserves were combined. From 2003, these two reefs are reported separately. For comparison, the 2002 figures have been split for the purposes of this document. 2. 3,85 Mt of UG2 opencast included in Reserves. 3. Platreef stockpiles included in Reserves. Platreef is mined by open pit. 4. Merensky Reef/UG2/Platreef change in Reserves because of an improved Reserve/Resource classification: Mineral Reserve tonnage differences are mainly because of the transfer of material previously declared as Reserves to Resources (refer to Mineral Resource table).

General: Rounding of figures may result in computational discrepancies. 4E grade reported: sum of platinum, palladium, rhodium, and gold grades. Resources: Joint venture agreements are still being finalized. Once finalized, the above statement may be affected. 1. Merensky Reef Resources changed because of Platreef being reported separately. Historically the Platreef and the Merensky Reef Resources were combined. From 2003, these two reefs are reported separately. The 2002 figures have been split to enable comparisons to be drawn. 2. Merensky Reef/UG2/Platreef change in Resources because of an improved Reserve/Resource classification. The substantial increase in measured Mineral Resources is because of the transfer of material previously declared as Reserves to Resources. Some material previously declared as Indicated Mineral Resources was transferred to Inferred Mineral Resources following the implementation of an improved classification. The Mineral Reserves and Resources quoted are held under mining licences or prospecting permits issued or about to be issued under the Minerals Act, 1991. These must be converted into rights under the new Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act, 2002 (the Act), which provides for a prospecting right to be granted for a period of up to five years, renewable for a further three years. Under the Act, a mining right may be granted for up to 30 years, renewable for a further 30 years subject to the holder meeting the requirements of the Act. Anglo Platinums rights are therefore subject to their conversion into new rights under the Act and, insofar as Reserves and Resources are in excess of its requirements for the 30 years referred to, its rights are subject to renewal under the Act.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > REVIEW OF MINERAL RESERVES AND RESOURCES > RESOURCES BY OPERATION

General: Merensky Reef/UG2/Platreef change in Resources because of an improved Reserve/Resource classification. The substantial increase in measured Mineral Resources was because of the transfer of material previously declared as Reserves to Resources. Some material previously declared as Indicated Mineral Resources was transferred to Inferred Mineral Resources following the implementation of an improved classification procedure. 1. 2. 3. Increase in Resource tonnage because of Beestekraal 290JQ portions being included. The inclusion of Goevernements Plaats 417KQ has resulted in an increase in Resources. Merensky and UG2 Resources increased due to the inclusion of Grootkuil 409KQ. A new interpretation of recent aeromagnetic data has assisted in a revision of the Merensky and UG2 Resources. A revised depth limit below surface has resulted in a change in the Resources. The inclusion of additional portions of Diamant 422KS, Umkoanesstad 419KS, and Brakfontein 464KS has resulted in an increase in the Resources. 50% of BRPM (Boschkoppie 104JQ), Styldrift 90JQ, and portions of Frischgewaagd 96JQ included. Increase in Resources because of revised Reserve/Resource classification. BRPM JV: a JV Agreement has been negotiated and once binding, Anglo Platinum will receive a share in the total Resources. Modikwa Platinum Mine JV is quoted separately from the Modikwa project. Increase in Resource tonnage because of recent exploration efforts. Twickenham Platinum Mine is quoted separately from the Ga-Phasa PGM Project JV this year. The inclusion of Balmoral 508KS has resulted in an increase in the Resources in the Twickenham Platinum Project. Ga-Phasa PGM Project: Anglo Platinum is currently negotiating the terms of a possible joint venture agreement and once binding Anglo Platinums attributable ounces will be affected. Once the joint venture is finalized and binding, Anglo Platinums attributable Resource will be ~45% of the whole of the Pandora JV.

OPERATIONS REVIEW > REVIEW OF MINERAL RESERVES AND RESOURCES > DEFINITIONS

Mineral Reserve and Resource definitions


The Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves of the Group are classified, verified, and reported in accordance with statutory, stock exchange, and industry/ professional guidelines. The classifications are based on the South African Code (SAMREC) and the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Joint Ore Reserves Committee Code (JORC Code). Reporting is by professionals with appropriate experience in the estimation, economic evaluation, exploitation, and reporting of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves relevant to the various styles of mineralization under consideration. The Groups experience with the various orebodies that it is engaged in evaluating and mining spans decades, resulting in a thorough understanding of the factors important to the assessment of their economic potential. Where Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are quoted for the same property, Resources are in addition to Reserves. Resources are by definition exclusive of any diluting materials that might arise as a consequence of the mining method and specific geological circumstances applicable to the mining of that Resource. Reserves, on the other hand, include all such expected dilution. Mineral Resource: a concentration or occurrence of material of economic interest in or on the earths crust in such form and quantity that there are reasonable and realistic prospects for eventual economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade, continuity, and other geological characteristics of a Mineral Resource are known, estimated from specific geological evidence and knowledge, or interpreted from a well-constrained and portrayed geological model. Mineral Resources are subdivided, in order of increasing confidence in respect of geoscientific evidence, into Inferred, Indicated, and Measured categories. Inferred Mineral Resource: that part of a Mineral Resource for which tonnage, grade,

and mineral content can be estimated with a low level of confidence. It is inferred from geological evidence and assumed but not verified from geological and/or grade continuity. It is based on information gathered through appropriate techniques from outcrops, trenches, pits, workings, and drill holes that may be limited or of uncertain quality and reliability. A Mineral Resource is consistent with the Inferred Category when the risk associated with the accumulated metal estimate is greater than 20% (at a 90% confidence level). Indicated Mineral Resource: that part of a Mineral Resource for which tonnage, densities, shape, physical characteristics, grade, and mineral content can be estimated with a reasonable level of confidence. It is based on exploration, sampling, and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from outcrops, trenches, pits, workings, and drill holes. The locations are too widely or inappropriately spaced to confirm geological and/or grade continuity but are spaced closely enough for continuity to be assumed. A Mineral Resource is consistent with the Indicated Category when the risk associated with the accumulated metal estimate is between 10% and 20% (at a 90% confidence level). Measured Mineral Resource: that part of a Mineral Resource for which tonnage, densities, shape, physical characteristics, grade, and mineral content can be estimated with a high level of confidence. It is based on detailed and reliable exploration, sampling, and testing information gathered through appropriate techniques from outcrops, trenches, pits, workings, and drill holes. The locations are spaced closely enough to confirm geological and grade continuity. A Mineral Resource is consistent with the Measured Category when the risk associated with the accumulated metal estimate is less than 10% (at a 90% confidence level). Mineral Reserve: the economically mineable material derived from a Measured and/or Indicated Mineral Resource. It is inclusive of diluting materials and allows for losses that may occur when it is mined.

Appropriate assessments, which may include feasibility studies, have been carried out, including consideration of and modification by realistically assumed mining, metallurgical, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social, and governmental factors. These assessments demonstrate at the time of reporting that extraction is justifiable. Mineral Reserves are subdivided, in order of increasing confidence, into Probable Mineral Reserves and Proved Mineral Reserves. Probable Mineral Reserve: the economically mineable material derived from a Measured and/or Indicated Mineral Resource. It is estimated with a lower level of confidence than a Proved Mineral Reserve. It is inclusive of diluting materials and allows for losses that may occur when the material is mined. Appropriate assessments, which may include feasibility studies, have been carried out, including consideration of and modification by realistically assumed mining, metallurgical, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social, and governmental factors. These assessments demonstrate at the time of reporting that extraction is reasonably justified. Proved Mineral Reserve: the economically mineable material derived from a Measured Mineral Resource. It is estimated with a high level of confidence, inclusive of diluting materials, and allows for losses that may occur when the material is mined. Appropriate assessments, which may include feasibility studies, have been carried out, including consideration of and modification by realistically assumed mining, metallurgical, economic, marketing, legal, environmental, social, and governmental factors. These assessments demonstrate at the time of reporting that extraction is reasonably justified. Anglo Platinums Proved Mineral Reserves are contained within the limits of the five-year mining plans of its operations, this being the area of greatest understanding and certainty pertaining to the orebody.

In the context of the financial statements, the term Group refers to the Company and its major wholly owned subsidiaries: Anglo Platinum Management Services (Proprietary) Limited; Rustenburg Platinum Mines Limited (RPM); Potgietersrust Platinums Limited (PPRust); Lebowa Platinum Mines Limited (Leplats); and all other subsidiaries. The Directors are of the opinion that stakeholder interests are best served by separating the Group annual financial statements from those of the Company. The latter financial statements therefore appear in Appendix 1.

Financial results and nature of business


The financial statements set out fully the financial results of the Company and the Group. The Company is the holding company of the Group. The nature of the Groups business is described at the front of this Business Report.

Listings
The abbreviated name under which the Company is listed on the JSE Securities Exchange, South Africa (JSE) is AngloPlat and the Companys JSE Clearing House Code is AMS. The Company, which is the sole listed entity for the Group, is also listed on The Stock Exchange, London. International Depositary Receipts in respect of the Companys shares are listed on the Brussels Bourse. These depositary receipts are issued by SOGSDEWAAY, the issuing company of Bank Brussels Lambert SA.

Compliance with accounting standards


The Groups and the Companys annual financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards, as well as South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, the South African Companies Act, and the JSEs listings requirements.

Reporting in United States dollars


For the convenience of users, the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement of the Group have been translated into United States dollars and are presented on pages 109 to 111.

Dividend
The Companys dividend policy is to declare an interim and a final dividend in respect of each financial year. At its discretion, the Board may declare a special dividend where appropriate. Interim dividend On Tuesday 29 July 2003, the Board declared an interim cash dividend (number 101) of 370 cents per ordinary share (2002: 900 cents) to shareholders registered on Friday 29 August 2003. This dividend was paid on Wednesday 3 September 2003. Final dividend On Friday 13 February 2004, the Board declared a final cash dividend (number 102) of 270 cents per ordinary share (2002: 900 cents) (the cash dividend). In addition, the Board has proposed that shareholders be given the option to elect (the reinvestment election) to use the proceeds of the cash dividend to subscribe for new ordinary shares in Anglo Platinum (the subscription shares). The number of subscription shares to which shareholders will become entitled will be determined by the ratio that 270 cents per share multiplied by 1,05 bears to the issue price. The issue price is defined as the weighted average traded price of the ordinary shares of the Company on the JSE for the five business days ending Thursday, 4 March 2004. To the extent that shares cannot be subscribed for using the proceeds of the cash dividend, that portion of the cash dividend which is insufficient to subscribe for a whole share or an additional whole share (the cash dividend portion) will be posted to shareholders on the payment date. The subscription shares will be issued on Tuesday, 23 March 2004, and the adjusted number of shares will be listed on the JSE on that date. Documentation dealing with the subscription shares and election will be posted to shareholders around 16 February 2004. Only shareholders recorded in the register on Friday, 19 March 2004 will be entitled to receive the cash dividend and be able to make the reinvestment election.

Total dividends for the year The above-mentioned interim and final dividends resulted in dividends for the year totalling 640 cents per ordinary share (2002: 1 800 cents). The Board is satisfied that the capital remaining after the payment of the final dividend, together with anticipated borrowings, will be sufficient to support the current operations and to facilitate future development of the business.

Corporate governance Directors responsibilities in respect of annual financial statements


The Directors are required by the South African Companies Act to maintain adequate accounting records and to prepare annual financial statements that fairly present the state of affairs of the Group and the Company as at the end of the financial year and the profit or loss for that year. Furthermore, in order to achieve fair presentation, these financial statements are drawn up to comply with International Financial Reporting Standards and South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The financial statements are the responsibility of the Directors and it is the responsibility of the independent auditors to report thereon. To enable the Directors to meet these responsibilities, the Board sets standards and implements systems of internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost-effective manner. The controls include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective accounting procedures, and adequate segregation of duties, ensuring an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored throughout the Group and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring that the Groups business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach. Particulars relating to the Groups internal controls and audit approach, embracing the role and function of the Audit Committee, are set out in the section on corporate governance in the Sustainable Development Report. The audit approach entails a thorough comprehension of the Groups financial and business objectives, and analysis of the underlying systems and procedures. The focus of risk management in the Group is on identifying, assessing, managing, and monitoring all known forms of risk across the Group. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the Group endeavours to minimize it by ensuring that the appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems, and ethics are applied throughout the Group and managed within predetermined procedures and constraints. The Directors are of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management and the internal auditors and on comment by the independent auditors on the results of their audit, that the internal controls are adequate to ensure: The reliability and integrity of financial and operating information; The compliance of established systems with policies, plans, procedures, laws, and regulations;

Corporate governance (continued)


The safeguarding of the Groups assets against unauthorized use or disposition; The economic, effective, and efficient utilization of resources; and The accomplishment of established objectives and goals for operations or programmes.

Nothing has come to the attention of the Directors to indicate that any material breakdown in the functioning of these controls, procedures, or systems occurred during the year under review. Accordingly, the financial records may be relied upon for preparing the financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets and liabilities. In preparing the financial statements, the Group complied with International Financial Reporting Standards and used appropriate accounting policies, supported by reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates. The Directors are of the opinion that the financial statements fairly present the financial position of the Company and of the Group as at 31 December 2003 and the results of the operations and cash flow information for the year then ended. The Directors have reviewed the Groups cash flow forecast for the year to 31 December 2004 and, in the light of this review and the current financial position, they are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Group continues to adopt the goingconcern basis in preparing the annual financial statements. The Directors believe, as a result of the comprehensive structures and controls that are in place and the ongoing monitoring of the activities of executive and operational management, that the Board maintains effective control over the Groups affairs. The internal auditors and the independent external auditors concur with these statements by the Directors. The Board considers that the Company and its subsidiaries complied during the financial year in all material respects with the principles of the Code of Corporate Practices and Conduct contained in the 1994 King Committee Report on Corporate Governance (the 1994 Code). With effect from March 2002, the second King Report on Corporate Governance in South Africa (King 2) replaced the 1994 Code. Since the release of King 2, the Board has reviewed the Companys corporate governance in detail and has taken steps to ensure compliance. On 1 July 2003, Ralph Havenstein was appointed the CEO, separating this role from that of Chairman. The Board is of the view that the Company and its subsidiaries are now fully compliant with the recommendations set out in the Code of Corporate Practices and Conduct contained in King 2. Details of the Groups corporate governance structures and practices are set out in the Sustainable Development Report.

Corporate code of conduct


The Group is committed to promoting the observance of the highest standards of ethical behaviour among its Directors, management, and employees. In accordance with this objective, a Code of Ethics and Business Principles has been circulated throughout the Group to provide a clear guide to the behaviour expected of all employees in their dealings with each other and with the Groups stakeholders. All employees of the Group are required to maintain the highest ethical standards, ensuring that the Groups business practices are conducted in a manner that is above reproach. Having regard to the provisions of the Insider Trading Act, the Company operates closed periods prior to the publication of its interim and year-end financial results, during which Directors, officers, and other employees of the Group may not deal in the shares or other instruments pertaining to the shares of the Company or in any investment relating to the Companys shares. This principle is also applied at other times whenever warranted by circumstances.

Black economic empowerment (BEE) initiatives Modikwa Platinum Mine


The Group previously announced the development of a PGM mine on the farms Maandagshoek, Driekop, Winterveld, Hendriksplaats, and Onverwacht on the Eastern Limb of the Bushveld Complex to exploit the Merensky and UG2 reefs. It was also stated that the mining of these properties would be undertaken in cooperation with a BEE consortium in accordance with the Groups policy of supporting and encouraging meaningful empowerment of historically disadvantaged South Africans. On 21 August 2001, the Group announced that negotiations with African Rainbow Minerals as leader for such a consortium had been concluded and an agreement had been reached, in terms of which the parties would participate equally in a joint venture to turn the above-mentioned properties to account. In terms of that agreement, the parties each provided half the estimated R1,35 billion capital cost of the mine (2000 money terms), which will produce 162 000 ounces of platinum per annum.

Northam Platinum Limited (Northam)


As at 31 December 2003, the Groups beneficial shareholding in Northam was 52 096 216 shares (52 020 516 shares as at 31 December 2002).

Pandora Joint Venture (Pandora)


As at 31 December 2003, the Groups intention was for a beneficial shareholding in Pandora of 45%, subject to further negotiation.

Bafokeng-Rasimone Platinum Mine and Styldrift Joint Venture


An agreement in respect of the joint venture has been concluded. Certain suspensive conditions remain outstanding.

Booysendal JV
In July 2003, Anglo Platinum and Khumama Platinum (Pty) Ltd, a BEE consortium, announced their agreement in principle to establish a 50:50 joint venture to develop the Booysendal Platinum Project on the Eastern Limb of the Bushveld Complex in Mpumalanga. The conclusion of the joint venture agreement is still subject to certain conditions, including the obtaining of the necessary regulatory and statutory consents and authorizations, as well as board approvals.

Expansion programme Expansion of mining capacity and process facilities announced in 2003
In February 2003, the Group announced that it had concluded an agreement to establish a joint venture with Cluff Mining plc (Cluff) to prospect and potentially develop the Shebas Ridge Platinum Project in the Mpumalanga Province. After certain cash payments and the issue of Cluff shares to Anglo Platinum, Anglo Platinum holds a 35% interest in the project, with the balance held by Cluff, who will continue to fund the exploration programme. Upon completion of a feasibility study and Cluff taking the decision to mine, Cluff will make a further payment of US$12,5 million to Anglo Platinum, thereby increasing Cluffs interest in the joint venture to 87,5%. When this occurs, the parties will finalize the terms for Anglo Platinum to purchase the concentrate to be produced by the mine. The conclusion of the Joint Venture Agreement is subject to certain conditions, including the obtaining of the necessary regulatory and statutory consents and authorizations. In April 2003, Anglo Platinum and Anglo American Corporation Zimbabwe Limited announced that they were to proceed with the initial phase of the development of the Unki Platinum Project, situated near Gweru on Zimbabwes Great Dyke. The project is still subject to certain Zimbabwean and South African regulatory and fiscal approvals. The project involves the development of an 85 000 tons per month mine that will include an on-site concentrator. The mine will produce concentrate containing some 58 000 ounces of refined platinum per annum at full capacity, with first production expected in 2007. The total project cost was estimated at some US$90 million (2003 terms). The concentrate produced by the mine will be smelted and refined by Anglo Platinum in South Africa. Anglo Platinum will hold a majority shareholding in Unki and will also manage the operations. Anglo Platinum and Anglo American Corporation Zimbabwe Limited will fund the initial development phase from existing cash resources and borrowing facilities. Discussions are being held with indigenous parties with a view to their acquiring an equity interest in Unki. In June 2003, Anglo Platinum and Aquarius Platinum (South Africa) announced that they had reached agreement to mine contiguous properties on their respective Rustenburg and Kroondal lease areas. The agreement provides for the parties to pool their assets, while retaining ownership thereof, and to share the proceeds equally. Anglo Platinum will provide access to a portion of the UG2 orebody on Rustenburg Platinum Mines (RPM) lease area and Aquarius Platinum (South Africa) will provide access to its existing Kroondal Platinum Mines (KPM) lease area and infrastructure. KPMs production will be expanded from 140 000 to 280 000 ounces of refined platinum per annum by utilizing the KPM infrastructure, constructing an additional 250 000 tons per month concentrator for completion in 2005, and the establishment of additional shaft capacity. The venture will have a mine life extending to 2016. The capital expenditure for establishment of the venture is expected to be in the region of R750 million (2003 terms) and will be equally funded by Anglo Platinum and Aquarius Platinum (South Africa). In December 2003, Anglo Platinum presented the results of a review of its expansion plans in light of deteriorating economic conditions, particularly those accompanying the strengthening of the rand against the US dollar. The review confirmed that current and future demand for platinum remained robust, and the Group consequently confirmed its commitment to expanding its production base. However, it announced its intention of slowing down the rate of implementation of some of its expansion projects by between one and three years. Instead of producing 3,4 million ounces of platinum in 2006, the revision of the project scheduling would result in a lower expanded production in that year of approximately 2,9 million ounces of platinum.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > REMUNERATION REPORT REMUNERATION REPORT Role of the Remuneration Committee and terms of reference
The Remuneration Committee (the Committee) is responsible for considering and making recommendations to the Board on: The Companys general policy on executive and senior management remuneration; The specific remuneration packages for Executive Directors of the Company including, but not limited to, basic salary, performancebased short- and long-term incentives, pensions, and other benefits; and The operation of the Companys share incentive schemes.

Membership of the Remuneration Committee


The Committee included the following Non-executive Directors during the period since the previous Annual General Meeting: Tom Wixley (Chairman); Colin Brayshaw; Barry Davison (appointed July 2003); Hixonia Nyasulu (appointed January 2004); and Tony Trahar.

The Committee met five times during 2003. The Chief Executive Officer attends the Committee meetings and assists the Committee in its deliberations, except when issues relating to his own compensation are discussed. No Director is involved in deciding his or her own remuneration. In 2003, the Committee was advised by CB Corrin (Group Human Resources, Anglo American plc), the Companys Finance function, and PricewaterhouseCoopers, who were appointed by the Company with the agreement of the Committee in June 2003 to advise on the design of executive incentive schemes and assist with their implementation. The Companys auditors, Deloitte & Touche, have not provided advice to the Committee.

Remuneration policy
Principles of executive remuneration Anglo Platinums remuneration policy is formulated to attract and retain high-calibre executives and motivate them to develop and implement the Companys business strategy in order to optimize long-term shareholder value creation. It is the intention that this policy should conform to best practice standards. The policy is framed around the following key principles: Total rewards will be set at levels that are competitive within the relevant market; Total incentive-based rewards will be earned through the achievement of demanding performance conditions consistent with shareholder interests over the short, medium, and long term; Incentive plans, performance measures, and targets will be structured to operate soundly throughout the business cycle; and The design of long-term incentives is prudent and does not expose shareholders to unreasonable financial risk.

Elements of Executive Director remuneration Executive Director remuneration comprises the following four principal elements: Base salary; Annual bonus plan; Share Option Scheme; and Benefits.

The Committee seeks to ensure an appropriate balance between the fixed and performance-related elements of Executive Director remuneration, and between those aspects of the package linked to short-term financial performance and those linked to longer-term shareholder value creation. The Committee considers each element of remuneration relative to the market and takes into account the performance of the Company and the individual Executive Director in recommending quantum and design.

88

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > REMUNERATION REPORT

The policy relating to each component of remuneration is summarized below: Base salary The base salary of the Executive Directors is subject to annual review and is set to be competitive at the median level with reference to external market practice in similar companies, which are comparable in terms of size, market sector, business complexity, and international scope. Company performance, individual performance, and changes in responsibilities are also taken into consideration when determining annual base salaries. Annual bonus plan All Executive Directors are eligible to participate in an annual bonus plan, with payment levels based on corporate and individual performance. Bonus potentials are set on an individual basis each year and have not normally exceeded 60% of base salary for the Executive Chairman (while that role existed), 60% for the Chief Executive Officer, 40% for the Chief Operating Officer, and 30% for other Directors. The bonus plan is non-contractual and not pensionable. The Committee retains the discretion to make adjustments to bonuses earned at the end of the year on an exceptional basis, taking into account both Company performance and the overall and specific contribution of individual Executive Directors to the Companys success. The performance measures for the annual bonus plan include measures of corporate (and, where applicable, divisional) performance, as well as the achievement of specific individual objectives. The corporate element is based upon stretching production and profitability targets, and is reduced by failure to achieve safety targets. The Committee reviews measures annually, after consultation with the CEO, to ensure that the measures and targets set are appropriate given the economic context and the performance expectations for the Company. It is the Committees usual policy to base 70% of each annual bonus award on the corporate or divisional measure and the remaining 30% on the defined personal key performance indicators. Share Option Scheme Options over Anglo Platinum shares were granted in March 2003 to Executive Directors, which allocation was based on performance criteria similar to those used for the annual bonus. The options are allocated at the middle market price ruling on the trading day prior to the date of allocation, vest after stipulated periods, and are exercisable up to a maximum of 10 years after the date of allocation. Retirement schemes Executive Directors participate in contributory retirement schemes established by the Group. Other benefits Executive Directors are entitled to the provision of either a car allowance or a fully expensed car, medical insurance, death and disability insurance, social club membership, and reimbursement of reasonable business expenses. The provision of these benefits is considered to be market competitive in South Africa for executive director positions. Proposals for new long-term incentive plans Following the withdrawal of the Executive Directors in 2002 from participation in long-term incentive plans provided by Anglo American plc, the Committee has developed proposals for implementation in 2004 of a range of new long-term incentive plans that embody the following elements: Executive share appreciation scheme (ESAS) It is intended that the Anglo Platinum Share Option Scheme will be replaced by a new scheme, under which Executive Directors will receive annual allocations of rights to a cash bonus that depend upon appreciation in the market value of the Companys shares. The right will normally vest after three years, subject to a performance condition to be set by the Committee, initially based on an increase in earnings per share over the vesting period. Although under present tax legislation an ESAS is preferable to a share option scheme from the Companys point of view, shareholders will also be asked to approve the establishment of a new Share Option Scheme in the event that circumstances change and the use of such an alternative scheme should prove desirable. Long-term incentive plan (LTIP) The Committee proposes in future to make awards of conditional shares annually to Executive Directors under a new plan to be known as the LTIP. These awards are discretionary and are considered on a case-by-case basis. The Committee intends to make annual awards of LTIP interests over Anglo Platinum shares with a face value of 120% of basic salary for the CEO and 100% of basic salary for the other Executive Directors. However, in exceptional circumstances and in order to accommodate changing market conditions, awards may be made to each Executive Director of up to a maximum of two times basic salary per annum. LTIP awards are subject to the achievement of stretching performance measures relating to total shareholder return (TSR) against a group of comparable companies and to an operating measure, initially return on capital employed (ROCE), over a fixed three-year period. 50% of the award for all Directors will be subject to the Group TSR measure and 50% to a Group ROCE measure. These performance conditions are selected on the basis that they clearly foster the creation of shareholder value. There is no provision for retesting should the conditions not be met at the end of the performance period.

ANGLO PLATINUM BUSINESS REPORT 2003

89

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > REMUNERATION REPORT

The Committee may amend the performance condition applying to any award, provided that the amended conditions are no less demanding and will be a fairer measure of performance or will provide a more effective incentive to the participant, and that circumstances merit such a change. At the end of each performance period, the level of performance achieved and the level of award earned will be published and be subject to external verification by the Companys auditors. The LTIP closely aligns the interests of shareholders and Executive Directors by rewarding superior shareholder and financial performance and by encouraging Executive Directors to build up a shareholding in Anglo Platinum. Deferred bonus plan In order to further encourage Directors to build up a significant personal stake in the Company, the Committee has proposed to shareholders that a portion of the Executive Directors annual bonus be taken in shares and that a share match be used. Directors will be required to defer 50% of their bonus (net of tax) and may, at the discretion of the Committee on a year-by-year basis, defer 100% of their bonus to acquire shares in Anglo Platinum. If these shares are held for three years, they will be matched by the Company on a one-for-one basis, conditional upon the Executive Directors continued employment. Use of this share match will allow Anglo Platinum to maintain competitiveness in annual bonus plan levels and encourage executives to invest in the shares of the Company, thus increasing the proportion of Executive Director rewards linked to both short-term performance and longer-term total shareholder returns. The bonus deferral and share match will also act as a retention tool and ensure that Executive Directors share a significant level of personal risk with the Companys shareholders. Executive shareholding targets Within five years of their appointment, Executive Directors are expected to acquire a holding of shares with a value of one and a half times base salary in the case of the CEO and one times base salary in the case of other Executive Directors.

Other matters affecting remuneration of Directors Sourcing of shares for share plans
It is not intended to issue any new shares to satisfy requirements in terms of the new long-term incentive plans, but rather to acquire any such shares on the open market.

External appointments
Executive Directors are not permitted to hold external directorships or offices without the approval of the Board; if approved, they may retain the fees payable from one such appointment.

Non-executive Directors
The Board, in reviewing Non-executive Directors fees annually, makes recommendations to shareholders in the light of fees payable to non-executive directors for comparable companies and the importance attached to the retention and attraction of high-calibre individuals as non-executive directors. Levels of fees are also set by reference to the responsibilities taken by the Non-executive Directors in chairing the Board and its committees.

Directors fees
For 2003, each of the Non-executive Directors received Directors fees at the rate of R60 000 per annum (2002: R50 000). The Chairman received an additional sum of R60 000 per annum (2002: R50 000). The Deputy Chairman received a fee of R90 000 per annum (2002: R75 000). Non-executive Directors who serve on the Anglo Platinum Group committees each received fees per annum as follows: Audit Committee R20 000 (2002: R10 000); Corporate Governance Committee R15 000 (2002: R10 000); Nomination Committee R15 000 (2002: R10 000); and Remuneration Committee R15 000 (2002: R5 000). The chairman of each committee received an additional R15 000 per annum (2002: R10 000), except for the chairman of the Audit Committee, who received R40 000 per annum (2002: R10 000), and the chairman of the Remuneration Committee, who received R30 000 (2002: R10 000). Details of recommended increases for 2004 are set out on page 93.

Increase in Directors fees


At the Annual General Meeting on Tuesday, 30 March 2004, members will be requested to consider ordinary resolutions to approve the following: An increase in fees payable to Directors of the Company from R60 000 to R120 000 per annum. An increase in the fee payable to the Deputy Chairman of the Board from R90 000 to R180 000 per annum. An increase in the fee payable to the Chairman of the Board from R120 000 to R400 000 per annum (inclusive of all Board and committee responsibilities). An increase in the fees payable to Non-executive Directors serving on the committees of the Board as follows: Audit Committee: members fee from R20 000 to R50 000 per annum; chairmans fee from R40 000 to R75 000 per annum. Corporate Governance Committee: members fee from R15 000 to R25 000 per annum; chairmans fee from R30 000 to R40 000 per annum. Nomination Committee: members fee from R15 000 to R25 000 per annum; chairmans fee from R30 000 to R40 000 per annum. Remuneration Committee: members fee from R15 000 to R25 000 per annum; chairmans fee from R30 000 to R40 000 per annum. SHE Committee: members fee to be paid for the first time at R25 000 per annum, with the chairmans fee at R40 000 per annum.

The reason for the increase in Directors fees is the need to remain competitive in order to attract and retain Non-executive Directors of high calibre with the skills required to meaningfully contribute to the operation of the Board and its committees. In arriving at the proposed fees, cognisance was taken of market trends and the increased responsibilities of Non-executive Directors in terms of new corporate governance and JSE requirements. The Non-executive Directors do not participate in the Companys annual bonus plan, share option schemes, or long-term incentive plan. Directors service contracts It is the Companys policy that the period of notice required for Executive Directors does not exceed 12 months. In order properly to reflect their spread of responsibilities, all the Executive Directors have contracts with Anglo American Platinum Corporation Limited. None of the Non-executive Directors have a contract of employment with the Company. Their appointments are made in terms of the Companys Articles of Association and are initially confirmed at the first Annual General Meeting of shareholders following their appointment, and thereafter at three-year intervals.

Anglo American plc schemes


In addition to the Anglo Platinum Incentive Plans, the Executive Directors continue to enjoy a limited participation in the following Anglo American plc schemes: Share option scheme; Long-term incentive plan; and Deferred share bonus scheme.

However, participation by the Executive Directors in these Anglo American plc schemes is now restricted to the extent of any entitlement arising from previous awards or grants made under those schemes before a decision was taken that, for reasons of sound governance, the Executive Directors should not participate in any Anglo American plc schemes, including those listed above. Allocations to Barry Davison by Anglo American plc in terms of the above schemes are excluded for the reason that he is an executive director of Anglo American plc and is therefore entitled to participate in the Anglo American plc schemes. Details of his participation and allocations under the various Anglo American plc schemes appear in the Anglo American plc annual report. The following details are applicable to the Executive Directors restricted participation in the Anglo American plc schemes:

Share option scheme


Anglo American plc operates a share option scheme and Executive Directors of Anglo American Platinum Corporation Ltd were eligible in 2001 and 2002 to participate in it in accordance with the scheme rules. Grants of options are made annually. Options are not granted at a discount and are not pensionable. The exercise of options is subject to Anglo American plcs earnings per share increasing by at least 6% above the UK Retail Price Index over a three-year period. Options are normally exercisable, subject to satisfaction of performance conditions, between three and ten years from the date of grant.

Long-term incentive plan


Executive Directors became entitled in 2001 and 2002 to receive shares in Anglo American plc subject to the satisfaction of certain performance criteria over a three-year period. Awards are conditional upon the satisfaction of performance criteria that foster shareholder wealth creation and that are within the Executive Directors scope of influence. For the first award, two performance measures were selected: the first based on the Companys total shareholder return relative to a weighted group of international natural resource companies; and the second based on an underlying operating measure that focuses on raising the Groups return on capital employed in the medium term.

These Directors were eligible to receive shares in Anglo American plc for a minimum value of 50% of the bonus (after tax) or, at their election 100%, that if held for three years will be matched by the Company on a one-for-one basis conditional upon the Executive Directors continued employment.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of preparation
The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that are fairly valued. Significant details of the Companys and the Groups accounting policies are set out below, which are consistent with those applied in the previous year except for the change set out below. The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards of the International Accounting Standards Board, South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and the Companies Act in South Africa.

Change in accounting policy


The Group is increasingly entering into agreements to purchase significant quantities of concentrate from joint venture partners. When such material is on hand at the end of a reporting period, it is recognized as inventory on the Groups balance sheet. To ensure that the accounting treatment of purchased and produced concentrate is congruent, the Group has changed its accounting policy to recognize its own production of metals in concentrate within inventory. This change in accounting policy results in improved matching of costs with revenue. The change in accounting policy resulted in a net credit to accumulated profits at 1 January 2002 of R215,4 million, after tax of R106,7 million. Opening retained earnings, inventory, and taxation have been restated, but no restatement of the earnings for the year ended 31 December 2002 was carried out as the change in accounting policy is not material to those results. R million Effect of the change in accounting policy with respect to recognizing purchased and produced concentrate inventory: Opening retained earnings 2002 Earnings for the year ended 31 December 2003 322,1 110,9 (106,7) (33,3) 215,4 77,6 Gross Taxation Net

1.

Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the results and financial position of Anglo American Platinum Corporation Limited, its subsidiaries, joint ventures, and associates. The results of any subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included from the date control was acquired and up to the date control ceased to exist. Where an acquisition of a subsidiary is made during the financial year, any excess or deficit of the purchase price compared to the fair value of the attributable net identifiable assets is recognized respectively as goodwill or negative goodwill and accounted for as described in the Goodwill accounting policy note 4. All intra-Group transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealized profits that arise between Group entities are also eliminated.

2.

Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group exercises significant influence but does not control. These investments are accounted for using the equity method. Equity accounting involves recognizing in the income statement the reporting entitys share of the associates profit or loss for the period. The carrying amount of the investment in an associate in the balance sheet represents the Groups share of the net assets and includes goodwill or negative goodwill on acquisition. Adjustments for impairment are recorded when they occur.

3.

Joint ventures
The Groups interests in jointly controlled entities are accounted for through proportionate consolidation. Under this method, the Group includes its share of the joint ventures individual income and expenses, and assets and liabilities in the relevant components of its financial statements on a line-by-line basis. In respect of its interests in jointly controlled operations, the Group recognizes the assets that it controls and the liabilities that it incurs, as well as its share of the income that it earns and the expenses that it incurs from the jointly controlled operation.

Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the Groups share of the attributable net identifiable assets at the date of acquisition in a business combination. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the goodwills useful life or twenty years. Goodwill is assessed for impairment annually. Amortization and impairment are charged against net profit. The remaining useful life of goodwill is assessed annually. Negative goodwill is the excess of the Groups share of the fair value of the attributable net identifiable assets at the date of acquisition over the purchase consideration in a business combination.

98

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Negative goodwill that relates to expectations of future losses and expenses identified in the acquirers plan for the acquisition and that can be measured reliably but does not represent identifiable liabilities at the date of acquisition, is recognized as income when the future losses and expenses occur. Thereafter, the portion of negative goodwill not exceeding the fair value of acquired identifiable non-monetary assets is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the remaining weighted average useful life of the identifiable acquired depreciable/amortizable assets. Any amount of negative goodwill in excess of the fair value of the acquired identifiable non-monetary assets is recognized immediately as income.

5.

Property, plant and equipment Mining and process


Mine development cost is capitalized to capital work-in-progress and transferred to mining property, plant and equipment when the mining venture reaches commercial production. Capitalized mine development costs include expenditure incurred to develop new mining operations, to define further mineralization in existing orebodies, to expand the capacity of the mine, and to maintain production. Costs include interest capitalized during the construction period, where financed by borrowings, and the present value of future decommissioning costs. Items of mining and process property, plant and equipment are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of thirty years or their expected useful lives to estimated residual values. Amortization is first charged on mining ventures from the date on which they reach commercial production quantities.

Non-mining
Non-mining assets are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged on the straight-line basis over the useful lives of these assets at the following annual rates: Plant and equipment Motor vehicles Office furniture and equipment Land is not depreciated. 10% to 25% 20% to 25% 10% to 50%

Impairment
An impairment review of mining and process and non-mining assets is carried out annually by comparing the carrying amount of assets to their recoverable amounts when impairment indicators exist in relation to a cash-generating unit. The recoverable amount is the higher of value in use or net selling price. Each business unit constitutes a separate cash generating unit. Value in use of mining and process assets is determined by applying a discount rate to the anticipated pre-tax cash flows for the remaining life of mine, to a maximum of thirty years. The discount rate used is the Group's weighted average cost of capital as determined by the capital asset pricing model. The recoverable amounts of non-mining assets are determined by reference to market values. Where the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, the impairment, when identified, is charged against net profit to reduce the carrying amount of the affected assets to their recoverable amounts. The revised carrying amounts are amortized on a systematic basis over the remaining useful lives of such affected assets.

6.

Leases
A finance lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset from the Group. Assets subject to finance leases are capitalized as property, plant, and equipment at fair value of the leased assets at inception of the lease, with the related lease obligation recognized at the same amount. Capitalized leased assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Finance lease payments are allocated between finance cost and the capital repayment, using the effective interest rate method. Operating lease rentals are charged against operating profit on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

7. 8.

Investments
Investments in subsidiaries are reflected at cost less impairment in the Companys financial statements.

Inventories Refined metals


Metal inventories are measured at the lower of cost on the weighted average basis or net realizable value. The cost per ounce or ton is determined as follows:

ANGLO PLATINUM BUSINESS REPORT 2003

99

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Platinum, palladium, rhodium, and nickel are measured by dividing the mine output into total mine production cost less net revenue from sales of other metals in the ratio of the contribution of these metals to gross sales revenue. Gold, copper, and cobalt sulphate are measured at net realizable value.

Work-in-process
Work-in-process is valued at the cost of production less net revenue from sales of other metals. Work-in-process includes purchased and produced concentrate.

Stores and materials


Stores and materials consist of consumable stores and are valued at average cost. Obsolete and redundant items are written off to operating costs.

9.

Revenue recognition
Revenue from the sale of metals and intermediary products is recognized when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer. Gross sales revenue represents the invoiced amounts excluding value-added tax. Dividends are recognized when the right to receive payment is established. Interest is recognized on a time-proportional basis, which takes into account the effective yield on the asset over the period it is expected to be held. Royalties are recognized when the right to receive payment is established.

10. Dividends declared


The liability for dividends proposed and related taxation thereon are only raised when the dividend is declared.

11. Provisions
A provision is recognized when there is a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

12. Taxation
The charge for current tax is based on the results for the year, as adjusted for items that are exempt or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Current and deferred tax is charged or credited to the income statement, except when it relates to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the taxation effect is also recognized within equity. Deferred tax is provided on the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized and the liability is settled. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences or assessed and calculated losses can be utilized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax asset and liabilities on a net basis.

13. Research and exploration cost


Research cost is expensed when incurred. Exploration cost is expensed when incurred, except when it is probable that a mining asset will be developed as a result of the exploration work. In such a case, the capitalized exploration expenditure is amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the constructed mining asset or thirty years.

14. Leased metal


When metal is leased to fulfil marketing commitments, the equivalent cost of production at the inception date of the lease is charged to the income statement as an on-mine cost and reflected as a current liability in the balance sheet. On maturity of the lease, the liability is credited to on-mine costs. The leasing costs associated with borrowed metal are charged to other costs included in the cost of sales on a time-proportional basis.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

15. Financial instruments


The Groups financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, borrowings, accounts payable, and certain derivative instruments.

Cash and cash equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, cash deposits with banks, and money-market instruments. The carrying amount of cash, cash deposits with banks, and money-market instruments approximates their fair value. Gains or losses arising from marking to market or a change from carrying amount to fair value at reporting intervals is included in the determination of other net income.

Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the gross invoice value adjusted for payments received and an allowance for doubtful debts where considered appropriate. Bad debts are written off when identified.

Borrowings
Long-term borrowings are initially recorded at the fair value of the consideration received, net of issue costs. It is subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortized cost is calculated taking into account any issue costs and any discount or premium on settlement. Gains and losses are recognized in net profit or loss when the liabilities are extinguished.

Accounts payable
Accounts payable are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently carried at cost less payments made. Settlement discounts are recognized in net profit when they are granted.

Derivative instruments
In the ordinary course of its operations, the Group is exposed to fluctuations in metal prices, volatility of exchange rates, and changes in interest rates. The Group engages in a number of activities to manage these risks. These activities include hedging a portion of these exposures through the use of derivative financial instruments. Forward sales contracts and option contracts are utilized for managing metal and currency exposures. The Group does not speculate, acquire, hold for, or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes. Derivatives are initially measured at cost. All forward and option contracts are marked to market at financial reporting dates and any changes in their fair values are included in other net income in the period to which they relate. Commodity contracts that are entered into and continue to meet the Groups expected purchase, sale, or usage requirements, and were designated for that purpose at their inception and are expected to be settled by delivery, are recognized in the financial statements when they are delivered into. Gains and losses arising on all other contracts not spanning a reporting interval are recognized and included in the determination of other net income at the time that the contract expires. Where the conditions in IAS39 for special hedge accounting are met, the derivative is recognized on the balance sheet as either a derivative asset or liability and recorded at fair value. In the case of cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gains or losses on the hedging instrument is recognized in equity until the underlying transaction occurs, upon which the gains or losses are recognized in earnings.

16. Foreign currencies


The South African rand is the measurement currency of the Group, thus reflecting the economic substance of the underlying events and circumstances. Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the spot rate of exchange on the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Foreign exchange gains or losses arising from foreign exchange transactions are included in the determination of net profit. Foreign subsidiaries are regarded as foreign operations forming an integral part of the operations of the Group. The balance sheets and income statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated on the following basis: Monetary items of these operations are translated using the closing rate of exchange. Non-monetary items are translated at the rate of exchange at the historical transaction date. Income and expense items are translated at the weighted average rate of exchange for the reporting period.

All translation gains or losses are included in the determination of net profit.

17. Environmental rehabilitation


Estimated long-term environmental obligations, comprising pollution control, rehabilitation, and mine closure, are based on the Group's environmental management plans in compliance with current technology, environmental, and regulatory requirements.

Decommissioning costs
The discounted amount of estimated decommissioning costs that embody future economic benefits is capitalized as a decommissioning asset when commercial production is reached and concomitant provisions are raised. These estimates are reviewed annually and discounted using a pre-tax risk-free rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. The increase in decommissioning provisions following the passage of time is charged to interest paid. Decommissioning assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of thirty years or the expected benefit period.

Restoration costs
Changes in the discounted amount of estimated restoration costs are charged to income during the period in which such changes occur. Estimated restoration costs are reviewed annually and discounted using a pre-tax risk-free rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. The increase in restoration provisions due to the passage of time is charged to net investment income.

Ongoing rehabilitation costs


Expenditure on ongoing rehabilitation costs is recognized as an expense when incurred.

Platinum Producers' Environmental Trust


The Group annually contributes to the Platinum Producers' Environmental Trust, which was created to fund the estimated cost of pollution control, rehabilitation, and mine closure at the end of the lives of the Groups mines. Contributions are determined on the basis of the estimated environmental obligation over the life of a mine. Contributions made are reflected as a non-current monetary asset. Income earned on monies paid to the Trust is accounted for as interest received.

18. Borrowing costs


Borrowing costs are charged to interest paid. When borrowings are utilized to fund qualifying capital expenditure, the borrowing costs are capitalized in the period in which the capital expenditure and related borrowing costs are incurred. (Also refer policy note 5).

19. Employee benefits Short-term employee benefits


Remuneration to employees in respect of services rendered is recognized as an expense. Accruals are made for accumulated leave.

Equity compensation plans


Where employees exercise share options in terms of the rules and regulations of the Anglo American Platinum Corporation Limited Share Option Scheme, shares are issued to participants as beneficial owners. The Directors procure a listing of these shares on the primary stock exchange on which the Company's shares are listed and quoted. In exchange, employees entitled to such share options pay in cash a consideration equal to the option price allocated to them. The nominal value of shares issued is credited to share capital and the difference between the nominal value and the option price is credited to share premium.

Termination benefits
Termination benefits are charged against net profit when the Group is demonstrably committed to terminating the employment of an employee or group of employees before their normal retirement date.

Post-employment benefits
Defined contribution plans: retirement, provident, and pension funds Contributions to defined contribution plans in respect of services rendered are recognized as an expense.

Defined benefit plans: pension fund


The current service cost in respect of the defined benefit plan is recognized as an expense systematically over the periods during which services were rendered. The fund is actuarially valued every three years using the projected unit credit method. Actuarial gains and losses as a result of experience adjustments and/or the effects of changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized as income or expenditure over the expected average remaining working lives of the employees when the cumulative unrecognized actuarial gains or losses exceed the greater of 10% of the defined benefit obligation or the fair value of the plan assets.

102

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS > PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Defined benefit plans: post-retirement medical aid liability The post-retirement medical aid liability is recognized as an expense systematically over the periods during which services are rendered using the projected unit credit method. Independent actuarial valuations are conducted at least every three years, or sooner if necessary. Actuarial gains and losses as a result of experience adjustments and/or the effects of changes in actuarial assumptions are recognized as income or expenditure systematically over the remaining service period of employees participating to the extent that it falls outside the corridor defined in IAS19. Adjustments pertaining to retired employees are recognized immediately as income or an expense.

20. Segmental information


The Group produces PGMs primarily in South Africa. The risks and rewards associated with the individual operations are not sufficiently dissimilar to warrant identification of separate geographical segments. Therefore, the Directors consider that the primary reporting format is by business segment. Two business segments have been identified: firstly, mining, extraction, and production of PGMs; and secondly, the purchase of metals in concentrate for further treatment and refining.

Earnings per share


The calculation of basic and headline earnings per share is based on earnings of R2 091,9 million and R2 091,7 million respectively (2002: R5 740,0 million and R5 630,4 million) and a weighted average of 215 068 863 (2002: 214 482 014) ordinary shares in issue during the year.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share, basic and headline, is based on earnings of R2 091,9 million and R2 091,7 million respectively (2002: R5 740,0 million and R5 630,4 million) and a diluted weighted average of 215 428 748 (2002: 214 932 619) ordinary shares in issue during the year.

The basis for calculating the diluted weighted average ordinary shares in issue is the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year to which is added the theoretical number of shares to be issued for no consideration based on the year-end market price. Share options that are out-of-the-money at the year end are not taken into account in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

Post-retirement medical aid benefits The post-retirement medical aid obligation is actuarially valued at least every three years by an independent firm of consulting actuaries, unless events like plan curtailments necessitate more regular valuations. The obligation was last valued as at 31 December 2003 using the projected unit credit method. The assumptions used in the valuation included estimates of life expectancy and long-term estimates of the increase in medical costs, appropriate discount rates, and the level of claims based on the Group's experience.

24. Obligations due under finance leases


The Group finances certain housing requirements through finance leases. The Group holds a call option to acquire legal title to the land and houses at the end of the lease term. Group Five Limited (Group Five) holds a put option to put legal title of the remaining land and houses back to the Group. The implicit interest rate is linked to JIBAR (Johannesburg Inter Bank Acceptance Rate) and an average rate of 13,7% (2002: 15,2%) was paid for the year under review. No arrangements have been entered into for contingent rent payments. The fair value of the Group's lease obligations approximates its carrying amount. The Group's obligations are secured by the aforementioned put option that Group Five holds as well as the guarantee disclosed in Note 33. 2003 Rm Finance lease obligations relating to houses 324,3 2002 Rm 136,4

Forward foreign exchange contracts (FECs): The fair value of FECs represent the movement between contracted rates and year-end forward rates. These movements are recognized in the income statement.

# Forward metal contracts:

Changes in the value of forward metal contracts caused by movements in forward prices since inception of the contracts are recognized in the unrealized hedging deficit. The net amount of R164,0 million charged to the unrealized hedging deficit is made up of R234,3 million less deferred taxation of R70,3 million (Note 21). Changes in the value caused by translating the value of the forward contracts to rand are recognized in the income statement. This amounts to a charge of R11,5 million less taxation of R3,5 million.

At 31 December 2003, the Group held forward contracts to fix the US$ price of future sales relating to a nickel supply agreement. The objective is to hedge the Group against variability in future cash flows. The terms of the forward contracts are to sell 11 088 tons of nickel at US$12 540 per ton. The forward metal contracts are valued using forward metal prices that match the contractual maturity dates.

33. Contingent liabilities


Letters of comfort have been issued to financial institutions to cover certain banking facilities. There are no encumbrances of Group assets, other than the houses held under finance leases by the Group as disclosed in Note 24.

The Group provided guarantees in favour of Changing Tides 166 (Proprietary) Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Group Five. The guarantee provides security for lease payments to Group Five by the Anglo Platinum Housing Trust (APHT). This finance lease obligation is reflected in Note 24 to these financial statements. The probability of any obligation arising under this guarantee is considered remote.

The Group provided a guarantee in favour of Nedcor Limited (Nedcor) for financing provided by Nedcor to Salene Mining (Proprietary) Limited (Salene). The Group provided the guarantee to enable Salene to put mining infrastructure in place. The guarantee is valid until 1 July 2006 or earlier, on repayment by Salene of the loan. Salene will sell all ore production from the mine to the Group. The facility granted by Nedcor to Salene is for a maximum amount of R120 million. In the event that Nedcor calls up the guarantee, the Group holds bonds over sufficient assets of Salene to make good any obligations that may be incurred. It is unlikely that the Group will incur obligations under this guarantee.

As a result of the slowdown of capital projects, contracts with certain suppliers are being renegotiated. As a result of the negotiations, certain cancellation cost may occur. The amount of this will only be known and recognized during the course of 2004.

Aquarius holds a put option to put its interest in the PSA (Note 15) to the Group in the case of termination of that relationship. The probability of the option being exercised is considered remote. The amount of such an obligation is dependent on a discounted cash flow valuation at that point in time.

34. Financial risk management


The Group does not trade in financial instruments but, in the normal course of its operations, the Group is exposed to currency, metal price, investment, credit, interest rate, and liquidity risk. In order to manage these risks, the Group may enter into transactions that make use of financial instruments. The Group has developed a comprehensive risk management process to facilitate, control, and monitor these risks. This process includes formal documentation of policies, including limits, controls, and reporting structures. Controlling risk in the Group The Executive Committee and the Financial Risk Sub-committee are responsible for risk management activities within the Group. Overall limits have been set by the Board. The Executive Committee is responsible for setting individual limits. In order to ensure adherence to these limits, activities are marked to market on a daily basis and reported to the Group Treasurer. The Finance Risk Sub-committee, composed of Marketing and Treasury executives, meets weekly to review market trends and develop strategies to be submitted for Executive Committee approval. The Treasury is responsible for managing investment, currency, interest rate, and liquidity risk within the limits and constraints set by the Board. The Marketing Department is responsible for managing metal price risk, also within the laid-down limits and constraints set by the Board. Currency risk The Group operates in the global business environment and many transactions are priced in a currency other than South African rand. Accordingly, the Group is exposed to the risk of fluctuating exchange rates and seeks to actively manage this exposure through the use of financial instruments. These instruments typically comprise forward exchange contracts and options. Forward contracts are the primary instruments used to manage currency risk. Forward contracts require a future purchase or sale of foreign currency at a specified price. Current policy prevents the use of option contracts without Executive Committee approval. Options provide the Group with the right but not the obligation to purchase (or sell) foreign currency at a pre-determined price, on or before a future date. Few contracts of this nature were entered into during the year, and no such contracts were in existence at year-end. Forward exchange contracts

34. Risk management (continued)


Metal price risk Metal price risk arises from the risk of an adverse effect on current or future earnings or uncertainty resulting from fluctuations in metal prices. The ability to place forward contracts is restricted owing to the limited size of the financial market in PGMs. Financial markets in certain base metals are, however well-established. The Group places contracts where opportunities present themselves to increase/reduce the exposure to metal price fluctuations. Historically, the Group has made use of forward contracts to manage this exposure. Forward contracts enable the Group to obtain a pre-determined price for delivery at a future date. Refer to Note 27 in this respect.

Investment, liquidity risk, and interest rate risk The borrowed position of the Group exposes it to interest rate risk. Where necessary, the Group covers these exposures by means of derivative financial instruments. No such financial instruments existed at the balance sheet date.

Fluctuations in interest rates impact on the value of short-term cash investments, giving rise to interest rate risk. Other than ensuring optimum money market rates for deposits, the Group does not make use of financial instruments to manage this risk. Formal policies, procedures, and limits have been put in place for derivative instruments. The Groups cash position is set out in the table below:

Cash and cash equivalents Amount as at Period (days) less than 31 December 2003 Rm 30 569,4 Interest rate as at 31 December 2003 % 8,60 Amount as at 31 December 2002 Rm 1 580,0 Interest rate as at 31 December 2002 % 13,58

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will be unable to meet a financial commitment in any location or currency. This risk is minimized through the holding of cash balances and sufficient available borrowing facilities (refer Note 25). In addition, detailed cash flow forecasts are regularly prepared and reviewed by Treasury. The cash needs of the Group are managed according to its requirements.

Credit risk Credit risk arises from the risk that a counterparty may default or not meet its obligations timeously. The Group minimizes credit risk by ensuring that counterparties are banking institutions of the highest quality. Where possible, management ensures that netting agreements are in place. Counterparty limits are reviewed annually by the Executive Committee.

Trade accounts receivable involve a small group of international companies. The financial condition of these companies and the countries they operate in are regularly reviewed.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Finance
After-tax operating profit as a percentage of average operating assets: net profit excluding net investment income and income from associates as a percentage of average operating assets. Average operating assets: average of the aggregate of total assets less capital work-in-progress, cash and cash equivalents, Platinum Producers Environmental Trust, and investments at the beginning and end of the financial year. Average ordinary shareholders equity: average of the aggregate of share capital, share premium, non-distributable reserves, and accumulated profits at the beginning and end of the financial year. Capital expenditure: total capital expenditure on mining and non-mining property, plant, equipment, and capital work-in-progress. Current ratio: current assets as a ratio of current liabilities. Debt equity ratio: interest-bearing borrowings, including the short-term portion payable, as a ratio of shareholders equity. Effective tax rate: current taxation, deferred taxation, and tax normalization as a percentage of profit before taxation. Gross profit margin: gross profit on metal sales expressed as a percentage of gross sales revenue. Market capitalization: number of ordinary shares in issue as at 31 December multiplied by the closing share price as quoted on the JSE Securities Exchange South Africa. Net asset value: total assets less all liabilities including deferred taxation, which equates to shareholders equity. Net asset value as a percentage of market capitalization: shareholders equity expressed as a percentage of market capitalization at close of business on 31 December. Net debt: interest-bearing borrowings, plus obligations due under finance leases, less cash and cash equivalents. Net liquid assets: accounts receivable and cash and cash equivalents less current liabilities. Rand revenue per platinum ounce sold: net sales revenue divided by platinum ounces sold. Return on average shareholders equity: net profit expressed as a percentage of average ordinary shareholders equity. ROCE (return on average capital employed): net profit as a percentage of average shareholders equity, plus average interest bearing borrowings and average other financial liabilities at the end of the year. Total assets: the sum of non-current and current assets.

Operations
Arisings: the valuable product after a stage in processing. Bench: the equivalent of a level in an underground mine, most noticeable as the step-like features in an open-pit wall. The open-pit bench height is calculated to match the rock strength, pit economics, and capabilities of the open-pit machinery. Typical bench heights in open-pit mines range from 10 to 20 metres. Best cut: the optimum stoping width for mining of the reef at prevailing metal prices and costs. Built-up head grade: the total 4E grams produced from the concentrating process from concentrate, metallics (where applicable), and tailings, divided by the total tons milled. See definition of 4E below. Concentrating: the process of separating milled ore into a waste stream (tailings) and a valuable mineral stream (concentrate) by flotation. The valuable minerals in the concentrate contain almost all the base metal and precious metal minerals; these minerals are treated further by smelting and refining to obtain the pure metals (PGMs, Ni, and Cu). Decline: a generic term used to describe a shaft at an inclination below the horizontal and usually at the same angle as the dip of the reef. Development: any tunnelling operation that has for its object either exploration or exploitation. Equivalent refined platinum production: Mines production and purchases of metal in concentrate converted to equivalent refined platinum production using Anglo Platinums standard smelting and refining recoveries. Face advance: the average distance stope faces advance per month: a measure of resource utilization.

142

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Flotation: in the flotation process, milled ore mixed with water or pulp is passed through a series of agitated tanks. Various chemicals are added to the pulp in sequence to render the valuable minerals hydrophobic (water-repellent) and the non-valuable minerals hydrophilic (water-loving). Air is dispersed throughout the agitated tanks and rises to the surface. The hydrophobic particles attach to the rising air bubbles and are removed from the main volume of pulp as a soapy froth. In this manner, various combinations of flotation cells in series are utilized to produce a concentrated stream of valuable mineral particles, called the concentrate, and a waste pulp stream, called tailings. g/t: grams per ton, the unit of measurement of grade. One gram per ton is one part per million. Immediately available ore reserves: ground available for mining without any further development. In situ: the original, natural state of the orebody before mining or processing of the ore takes place. JORC: the Australian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Joint Ore Reserves Committee Code. Merensky Reef: a band in the Bushveld sequence often containing economic grades of PGMs. Milling: a process for reducing broken ore to a size at which concentrating can be undertaken. Mining area: the area for which a mining authorization/permission to mine has been granted. Oxidized ore: ore that has decomposed by exposure to surface and near-surface elements. Oz: Troy ounce. Pd: palladium. PGMs: platinum group metals, six elemental metals of the platinum group nearly always found in association with each other. Some texts refer to PGE (platinum group elements). These metals are platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, and osmium. Platreef: the name of the ore mined at PPRust. Pt: platinum. Refined product/production: refined metal produced by the refinery and appointed toll-treaters from mined material and purchased concentrate, as well as metals in product sold from the refinery. Semivariogram: a geostatistical function describing in numerical terms (and represented graphically for ease of quantification) the predictability relationship between points of data at some distance from each other. This predictability constrains the confidence within which the estimation of a value (in this case the content value of a deposit) is made, and therefore an estimate of the risk is quantified. Stoping: operations directly associated with the extraction of reef. Stripping ratio: the number of units of unpayable material that must be mined to expose one unit of ore. SAMREC: the South African Mineral Resources Committee. Sweepings: the final process in stoping operations, in which the footwall is thoroughly cleaned to remove the last portion of broken ore and fines. Tailings: that portion of the ore from which most of the valuable material has been removed by concentrating and that is therefore low in value and rejected. Tailings grade: the 4E content of the tailings produced by milling and concentrating. When compared to head grade, it is a measure of the efficiency of the concentrating process. Ton: metric ton, equal to 1 000kg, unless otherwise defined. UG2: a chromite reef in the Bushveld sequence often containing economic values of PGMs. Unoxidized ore: ore that has not undergone changes/degradation by weathering close to the surface. 3E: three elements, platinum, palladium, and gold. 4E: four elements. The grade at Anglo Platinum mines is measured as the combined content of the four most valuable precious metals: platinum, palladium, rhodium, and gold.
