Eastern Platinum Ltd. T.ELR

Alternate Symbol(s):  ELRFF

Eastern Platinum Limited owns directly and indirectly a number of platinum group metals (PGM) and chrome assets in the Republic of South Africa. It is engaged in re-mining and processing of tailings at the Crocodile River Mine (CRM) and the exploration and development of other PGM and chrome properties located in various provinces in South Africa. All of the Company's properties are situated on the western limb (Crocodile River Mine) and eastern limb (Kennedy's Vale, Spitzkop, Mareesburg) of the Bushveld Complex, the geological environment that hosts approximately 80% of the PGM-bearing ore. Operations at the Crocodile River Mine include re-mining and processing its tailings resource to produce PGM and chrome concentrates from the Barplats Zandfontein tailings dam. Its six PGMs are platinum, palladium, rhodium, osmium, iridium and ruthenium. The Kennedy’s Vale and Spitzkop Project are situated on the Eastern limb of the Bushveld Complex 350 kilometers northeast of Johannesburg.

Rozier noted that if the volatility and uncertainty in the current market persist for an extended time and PGM production and/or prices remain at present levels or lower, then the cash flows from the company's CRM project and current cash balances would be insufficient to advance any, or all, of its development projects to commercial production.

"This, along with credit markets that may tighten and result in higher financing costs, could negatively affect the company's ability to obtain equity financing, external debt financing or third party participation." If adequate funds were not available, it might be required to further delay or reduce the scope of any or all of its development projects.

At the end of the quarter, Eastplats had just over $17-million in cash.
