Update on disposal of interest in Bokoni Platinum mine

Anglo American Platinum notes the Cautionary Statement released by African Rainbow
Minerals Limited (“ARM”) on 28 October 2021 noting that it is currently in
discussions regarding its potential acquisition of Bokoni Platinum Mine from its
current owners, Anglo American Platinum and Atlatsa Resources Corporation.

Anglo American Platinum confirms that discussions are ongoing with ARM on the
disposal of Bokoni Platinum Mine and the terms of the proposed transaction are yet to
be finalised.

The Bokoni Platinum Mine was placed on care and maintenance in 2017 and the objective
of the sale process is to identify an appropriate owner with operational, technical
and financial capacity, to restart and operate the mine in a safe and sustainable
basis, to support economic growth and job creation in the area and the broader
Limpopo province.
