Notes to editors

About Lonmin:
Lonmin, which is listed on both the London Stock Exchange and
the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, is one of the world’s largest
primary producers of Platinum Group Metals (PGMs). These
metals are essential for many industrial applications,
especially catalytic converters for internal combustion engine
emissions, as well as their widespread use in jewellery.
Lonmin’s operations are situated in the Bushveld Complex in
South Africa, where nearly 80% of global PGM resources are
found.

The Company creates value for shareholders through mining,
refining and marketing PGMs and has a vertically integrated
operational structure – from mine to market. Lonmin’s mining
operations extract ore from which the Process Division
produces refined PGMs for delivery to customers. Underpinning
the operations is the Shared Services function which provides
high quality levels of support and infrastructure across the
operations.
