IMPLATS` STAKE IN MIMOSA PLATINUM                                               
Implats notes with concern the statements made by the Zimbabwean Minister of    
Youth Development, Indigenisation and Empowerment, Mr Saviour Kasukuwere to     
the media on Sunday, 19 February 2012 with regard to Implats` stake in          
Mimosa Platinum (Pvt) Limited ("Mimosa").  Mr Kasukuwere reportedly said        
that in order to facilitate indigenisation, the Company should dispose of       
its interest in Mimosa and leave Aquarius Platinum Limited as the               
shareholder of reference for funding and technical support.  To date, the       
Company has not received any official notification in this regard from the      
Government of Zimbabwe.
