INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS 
ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2012

REVIEWED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS 
ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2012

KEY FEATURES
-  R183 million of cash generated from operations for the six months ended 
31 December 2012, compared to R87 million for the six months ended 31 December 
2011, an improvement of 110%
-  Basic earnings per share of 5.92 cents per share compared to 16.57 cents for 
the six months ended 31 December 2011, a decline of 64%
-  Gold production for the Village Group on a like for like basis, excluding 
Blyvoor, was 2,602kg (83,654oz) compared to 2,817kg (90,567oz) for the six 
months ended 31 December 2011. Total gold production including Blyvoor totalled 
3,434kg (110,429oz)
-  The impact of the industrial action at Blyvoor during October 2012 and safety 
related stoppages across all our mines negatively impacted total gold production 
volumes by an estimated 360kg over the six month period
-  Antimony production was 2,728t compared to 2,285t for the six months ended 
31 December 2011, an improvement of 19%
-  Receipt of R405 million in cash from First Uranium Corporation (FIU), 
consisting of R392 million in settlement of Villages investment in the secured 
Mine Waste Solution (Pty) Ltd Rand Notes (MWS Notes) and R14 million as an 
interim dividend in relation to its equity investment in FIU
-  Payment of 30 cents per share special dividend on 6 August 2012
-  Village successfully repurchased 25.3 million of its ordinary shares 
amounting to 2.5% of the companys share capital through its wholly owned 
subsidiary Buffelsfontein Gold Mines Limited (Buffels) at a total cost of 
R30.2 million

EVENTS AFTER REPORTING PERIOD
-  Village repurchased a further 26.7 million of its ordinary shares at a cost
of R33.6 million post the December quarter end, resulting in a total of 
52 million or 5.2% of the companys issued shares being repurchased through its
wholly owned subsidiary Buffels to date. Village has the authority from its 
shareholders to acquire a further 150 million shares as part of the repurchase 
programme. 
-  Two employees lost their lives at our Village operations on 31 January and 
11 February 2013. Management and the Board regret this unfortunate loss of lives 
and are in the process of implementing action plans and processes that will 
result in a culture change within the operations, that should impact positively 
on the safety record at all Village operations. In both instances, the 
inspectorate issued mine wide section 54 instructions, stopping all mining 
activities. It is estimated that the stoppages will result in approximately 
100kg of gold being lost due to lower production during the third quarter of the 
2013 financial year.
-  The section 189 process at Blyvoor was successfully concluded.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE 6 MONTHS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2012

1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1  General information
Village Main Reef Limited (Village) is a South African-based mining and 
development company, with its ordinary shares listed for trading on the main 
board of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) under the share code VIL. The 
companys assets comprise Lesego Platinum (a platinum exploration project), 
Cons Murch Mine (a gold and antimony mine), Buffelsfontein Gold Mines (a gold 
producer which consists of Tau Lekoa Mine, Buffels Gold Mine and the South 
Plant) and Blyvoor Gold Mine (which produces gold).

1.2  Basis of preparation
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are for the six months 
ended 31 December 2012 and have been prepared in accordance with the 
measurement and recognition requirements of IFRS, IAS 34 Interim Financial 
Reporting as well as the AC 500 standards as issued by the Accounting Practices 
Board or its successor, the JSE Listings Requirements and the requirements of 
the South African Companies Act, 2008, as amended. They do not include all of 
the information required in annual financial statements in accordance with 
International Financial Reporting Standards, and should be read in conjunction 
with the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 
30 June 2012. The condensed interim financial statements have been reviewed by 
PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) whose unqualified review report is available for 
inspection at the Groups registered office.

1.3  Estimates and accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with the previous annual 
financial statements.

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make 
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting 
policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and 
expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing these 
condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgements 
made by management in applying the Groups accounting policies and the key 
sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the 
consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2012.
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified in the statement of 
comprehensive income. As the adjustments made are not considered material, no 
disclosure of a third statement of financial position for the beginning of the 
earliest comparative period has been presented.

3.  DIVIDEND RECEIVED

On 30 September 2012, Village received a dividend amounting to R14.2 million 
from FIU. Village holds a 5.7% interest in FIU.

4.  DIVIDEND PAID

On 6 August 2012 a special dividend of 30 cents per share was paid to 
shareholders. 

5.  RAND REFINERY SHARES

The Rand Refinery Limited (RRL) shares were acquired through business 
combinations between Simmer and Jack Mines Limited and DRDGold Limited (DRD) 
prior to 2005. These shares are held by Buffelsfontein Gold Mines Limited, one 
of the entities acquired by Village in the reverse acquisition of Simmer and 
Jack carve-out accounts on 27 June 2011.

During the 2011 financial year, after declaration of dividend by RRL for the 
period ended 30 September 2010, DRD instructed RRL not to pay the dividend to 
Village, indicating that this dividend was due to DRD. This was contrary to 
previous practice where the dividend of R6.1 million relating to shareholders 
as at 14 September 2008 had been paid to Village, then Simmer and Jack Mines 
Limited. High Court proceedings were instituted in September 2011.

The fair value of the RRL shares was recorded at R30 million and the related 
dividend accrued was R6.8 million as at 30 June 2012. On 16 January 2013, a 
full and final settlement was reached where DRD paid Village R20 million for 
the shares and dividend.  
At 31 December 2012 the investment in RRL shares was fair valued at 
R13.2 million being the settlement value of the shares, with a write down of 
R17.1 million accounted for under other comprehensive income, in accordance 
with IAS 39.

6.  Mine Waste Solution convertible rand notes
On 1 August 2012 Village received R392.8 million in full and final settlement 
of the Mine Waste Solutions Convertible Rand Notes. These proceeds were used to 
fund the special dividend of R302 million paid on 6 August 2012. The remaining 
balance was used to fund the share repurchases.
