OPERATIONS REVIEW   |   Introduction

 
FOCUSING ON SAFE PROFITABLE PLATINUM
 
    Anglo Platinum’s safety strategy has three core dimensions, namely: systems, behaviour and engineering out-risk.

Total cash on-mine costs for mining and retreatment operations increased by 26%, or R4.1 billion to R20.2 billion.

Production of equivalent refined platinum from mining operations was 2.4 million ounces.
