Midtier platinum-miner Aquarius Platinum, which swung from a loss to a net profit of $27,8-million in the 2010 financial year, plans to increase its attributable platinum-group metals (PGMs) output by 25% to 530 000 oz in the 2011 financial year.
Of the total attributable ounces, the Marikana mine would produce about 80 000 oz of PGMs, the Kroondal mine between 220 000 oz and 230 000 oz of PGMs, the Everest mine 120 000 oz of PGMs and the Mimosa mine, in Zimbabwe, 100 000 oz of PGMs, CEO Stuart Murray said in a conference call on Thursday. |
