Notes to Editors: 
 
Prosperity (AIM: PMHL) operates a cement manufacturing business in the People's 
Republic of China ("PRC") and an iron ore trading business serving the same 
market. 
 
Prosperity is in the process of disposing of the majority of its cement business 
in the PRC with the Completion Date set for 30 April 2010. Prosperity is 
retaining its 33.06% interest in Anhui Chaodong Cement Company Limited ("ACC") 
which is located in Anhui Province in the eastern PRC. The designed sellable 
output capacity of clinker** and cement at ACC is 3.4 million tonnes per year. 
 
The iron ore trading business has been operating since 1992 and sources iron 
ore, for shipment and use in the PRC, from major international iron ore 
producers in South Africa, Brazil and Australia, as well as from South East 
Asia, Thailand and Malaysia in particular. The majority of the Company's iron 
ore is sold to the large steel manufacturers in the PRC and, in the fiscal year 
ended 31 March 2009, Prosperity shipped 4.4 million tonnes of iron ore. This 
volume increased to 5.2 million tonnes in the six months ended 30 September 
2009. 
 
The PRC is the world's third largest economy (behind the US and Japan) and the 
largest producer and consumer of cement and the biggest buyer of iron ore. 
 
**Clinker is a complex calcium alumino-silicate material produced by the 
calcinations of limestone and clays. It is then ground and mixed with gypsum to 
form cement or, more correctly, Portland Cement.
