Leon Coetzer, Chief Executive commented:
"I am very pleased with the continued operational improvements at our Hernic operations. March 2018 has set a new operational high producing 1 858 ounces while our unit cost to produce a PGM ounce was at a low USD 434.
I expect Q2 2018 to deliver even better operational numbers as the Hernic operation continues to improve.
Our DCM operation is going through a transitional phase as we gear up to execute the PGM project. We have temporarily suspended the processing of 3(rd) party ore at DCM due to continued variation in feed quality causing operational difficulties negatively impacting our production of chrome from the on-site tailings and surface waste material.
It is an exciting period for Jubilee as we expand our operational reach. Our projects team has a busy time ahead as we look to execute the PlatCro PGM project, DCM PGM project and the Kabwe project."
HERNIC OVERVIEW
The Hernic operation continues to deliver improved results quarter on quarter. The unit cost per PGM ounce produced of USD 434 sets the standard for the industry and illustrates the robustness of the project. March 2018 delivered 1 858 PGM ounces which is the highest ounces delivered to the refinery in any month to date.

DCM overview
The DCM project is gearing up to commence construction of the PGM recovery plant. The plant design target is set at 25 000 tonnes per month of feed material to the chrome and PGM recovery plant. Processing of 3(rd) party ore at DCM has been suspended temporarily during this time due to significantly varying feed quality resulting in plant operational constraints which also negatively impacts the processing of on-site tailings and surface waste material as reflected in the project numbers.
Phase 1 of the fine chrome recovery circuit has been completed with the design and construction underway of an enlarged fine chrome recovery circuit to enhance the recovery of chrome prior to the recovery of the PGMs.
