The average US dollar/rand exchange rate for 2011 of USD1: R7.25 (2010: USD1: R7.30) has been used to translate income and cash flow<br />
statements, whilst the balance sheet has been translated at the closing rate at the last day of the reporting year using an exchange rate of<br />
USD1: R8.18 (2010: USD1: R6.63). The group’s financial instrument exposure to currency risk is analysed under the individual note for each<br />

The group uses derivative financial instruments to reduce the uncertainty over future cash flows arising from movements in currencies in which<br />
it transacts. Currency risk is managed within board-approved policies and guidelines, which restrict the use of derivative financial instruments<br />
to the hedging of specific underlying currencies. Exchange rate exposures are managed within approved policy parameters utilising forward<br />
exchange contracts (FECs).<br />
The group maintains a fully covered exchange rate position in respect of imported capital equipment resulting in these exposures being fully<br />
converted to rand. Trade-related import exposures are managed through the use of natural hedges arising from export revenue as well as<br />
through short-term FECs.<br />
