NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIODS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2011
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise stated)
REPORTING ENTITY
Anooraq Resources Corporation (the "Company" or "Anooraq") is incorporated in
the Province of British Columbia, Canada. The condensed consolidated interim
financial statements of the Company as at and for the three and nine months
ended 30 September 2011 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together
referred to as the "Group" and individually as "Group entities") and the Group`s
interests in associates and jointly controlled entities. Its principal business
activity is the mining and exploration of Platinum Group Metals ("PGM") through
its mineral property interests. The Company focuses on mineral property
interests located in the Republic of South Africa in the Bushveld Complex.
Anooraq operates in South Africa through its wholly-owned subsidiary Plateau
Resources (Proprietary) Limited ("Plateau") which historically owned the Group`s
various mineral property interests and conducted the Group`s business in South
Africa.
GOING CONCERN
The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis that
the Group will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realisation of
assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations as they
become due.
As a result of the acquisition of the operating mine in 2009, the Group secured
various funding arrangements including securing a long-term credit facility, the
Operating Cash Flow Shortfall Facility ("OCSF"), with Rustenburg Platinum Mines
Limited ("RPM") for an amount of $190.4 million (ZAR 1,470 million). The
facility is used to fund operating cash and capital requirements for an initial
period of three years. As at 30 September 2011, the Group utilised $131.6
million (ZAR 1,016 million), excluding interest, thereof to fund operating
requirements from 1 July 2009 as the mining operations are not currently
generating sufficient cash flows to fund operations and operational projects.
The Group has no obligation to repay significant interest and capital on its
outstanding loans and borrowings during 2011 and 2012.
As a result of securing the financial resources and long-term funding,
management expects that cash flows from the mining operations and the OCSF will
be sufficient to meet immediate ongoing operating and capital cash requirements
of the Group.
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all of

Senior Term Loan Facility
On 28 April 2011, the Senior Term Loan Facility with Standard Chartered Bank
("SCB") and FirstRand Bank acting through its division, Rand Merchant Bank
("RMB") was ceded to Anglo Platinum Limited ("Anglo") through its subsidiary,
Rustenburg Platinum Mines Limited ("RPM"). The outstanding interest rate swap
was settled with funding obtained from RPM.
The debt ceded to RPM has similar terms as the Senior Term Loan Facility except
for certain revisions. The revised terms of the loan is a reduction in the
interest rate from a 3 month JIBAR plus applicable margin (4.5%) and mandatory
cost (11.735% at 31 December 2010) to 3 month JIBAR plus 4% (9.585% at 30
September 2011). The total facility has been increased from $107 million (ZAR
750 million) to $132.7 million (ZAR 930 million). The commencement of re-
payments has been deferred by one year from 31 January 2013 to 31 January 2014.
RPM has also waived the loan covenants on the debt until 30 June 2012.
Transaction costs capitalised of $4 million (ZAR 28 million) were written off to
finance expense on the cession of the Senior Term Loan Facility.

11. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Group has two reportable segments as described below. These segments are
managed separately based on the nature of operations. For each of the segments,
the Group`s CEO (the Group`s chief operating decision maker) reviews internal
management reports monthly. The following summary describes the operations in
each of the Group`s reportable segments:
Bokoni Mine - Mining of PGM`s.
Projects - Mining exploration in Boikgantsho, Kwanda, and Ga-Phasha exploration
projects.
The majority of operations and functions are performed in South Africa. An
insignificant portion of administrative functions are performed in the Company`s
country of domicile.
The CEO considers earnings before net finance expense, income tax, depreciation
and amortisation ("EBITDA") to be an appropriate measure of each segment`s
performance. Accordingly, the EBITDA for each segment is included in the segment
information. All external revenue is generated by the Bokoni Mine segment.

13. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The basic and diluted loss per share for the three and nine months ended 30
September 2011 was 4 cents (2010: 4 cents) and 14 cents (2010: 8 cents)
respectively.
The calculation of basic loss per share for the three months ended 30 September
2011 of 4 cents (2010: 4 cents) is based on the loss attributable to owners of
the Company of $14,926,427 (2010: $15,495,792) and a weighted average number of
shares of 424,764,699 (2010: 424,660,916).
The calculation of basic loss per share for the six months ended 30 September
2011 of 14 cents (2010: 8 cents) is based on the loss attributable to owners of
the Company of $58,853,342 (2010: $33,319,336) and a weighted average number of
shares of 424,764,699 (2010: 424,660,916).
Share options were excluded in determining diluted weighted average number of
common shares as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
