TRADING STATEMENT                                                               
Shareholders are advised that Implats` headline earnings per share (HEPS) and   
basic earnings per share (EPS) for the six months ended 31 December 2010 are    
expected to be between 329 and 350 cents which is between 55% and 65% higher    
than that of the six months ended 31 December 2009 (EPS and HEPS of 212 cents). 
The increase in HEPS and EPS is due to higher metal prices and sales volumes.   
It should be noted that the earnings were tempered by the strengthening of the  
rand over the reporting period.                                                 
The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been 
reviewed by the external auditors of Implats.
