Commentary
OVERVIEW
During the first half of the year, the PGM market continued to be characterised by buoyant dollar basket prices, mildly tempered by the rand’s strength, yielding a record rand basket pricing environment and strong operating cash flows. However, the Covid-19 pandemic remains at the forefront of our strategic planning having progressed through the second wave during January with the third wave resurgence starting mid-June. We continue to maintain appropriate measures to limit the spread of the virus, maintaining a safe operating environment for our employees and limiting the impact on our production.
