Notes to editors
Lonmin, which is listed on both the London Stock Exchange and
the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, is one of the world's largest
primary producers of PGMs. These metals are essential for many
industrial applications, especially catalytic converters for
internal combustion engine emissions, as well as their widespread
use in jewellery.
Lonmin's operations are situated in the Bushveld Complex in
South Africa, where nearly 80% of known global PGM resources are
found.
The Company creates value for shareholders through mining,
refining and marketing PGMs and has a vertically integrated
operational structure - from mine to market. Lonmin's mining
operations extract ore from which the Process Division produces
refined PGMs for delivery to customers. Underpinning the operations
is the Shared Services function which provides high quality levels
of support and infrastructure across the operations.
