Fatal accident at RBPlat’s Styldrift I Project

RBPlat regrets to announce the death of an Aveng contract employee at
its Styldrift I Project.

The employee who was employed as an Equipping Assistant, was fatally
injured in a shaft related incident that occurred on the 21st of April
2015 in which 4 other employees sustained minor injuries and are
currently under medical supervision and treatment.

All normal underground operations have been suspended pending a full
investigation into the incident, which has already commenced in
conjunction with the Department of Mineral Resources.

RBPlat remains committed to the safety of its workforce.

The board of directors, management as well as colleagues at the
Styldrift Project extend their sincere condolences to his family and
friends.
