DELAYS IN COMMISSIONING THE FURNACE AT ARCELORMITTAL SOUTH
AFRICA’S NEWCASTLE WORKS


ArcelorMittal South Africa shareholders are advised that
Newcastle Works has experienced unforeseen delays which are being
attended to urgently in restarting the Blast Furnace after the
reline was completed at the end of October 2014.


Management is confident that the contingency plans in place will
ensure delivery to most customers throughout December. The
December shut down period is expected to ease the pressure on the
plants and customer orders for the New Year will not be impacted.


The Newcastle Works reline is one of the largest investments made
by ArcelorMittal South Africa, aimed at increasing domestic
capacity, which further indicates ArcelorMittal South Africa’s
commitment to the South African steel industry and to the local
economy.
