ZIMBABWEAN INDIGENISATION AND ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT LEGISLATION                  
Further to the announcement dated 9 September 2011, Implats confirms that       
the Zimbabwean Minister of Youth Development, Indigenisation and Empowerment    
(the "Minister") has agreed that its Zimbabwean subsidiary, Zimbabwe            
Platinum Mines (Pvt) Limited ("Zimbabwe Platinum Mines"), has until 15          
November 2011 to submit a revised Indigenisation Plan. The threat of            
Zimbabwe Platinum Mines` operating licence being cancelled has therefore        
fallen away.  Implats will continue to inform shareholders of on-going          
material developments.
