ZIMBABWE OPERATIONS UPDATE
Impala Platinum Holdings Limited is a company that is committed to the
highest corporate governance standards regardless of where our operations
are conducted.
It is well known, that the current position in Zimbabwe is creating a
difficult operating environment. However, our operations in this country
continue to operate well in extremely trying conditions. In addition, the
weakening economy has reduced our options of supporting local suppliers as
well as having a damaging impact on the country`s infrastructure.
We have in the past stated that an improvement in the socio-economic arena
would facilitate a more stable investment climate and result in significant
investment in developing the resources under our control with the resulting
prospect of large scale employment.
Shareholders are warned of the risks associated with our investments in
Zimbabwe, but can be assured that Implats remains willing to be part of any
solution that could possibly lead to an improvement of the socio-economic
environment.
