Pan African is a gold mining company, focussed on projects in South Africa and Mozambique, that produces approximately 100,000oz per year.
Its focus is on developing low cost, high margin production or near production projects. The Company has no debt, is unhedged and is able to fund all of its current on-mine capital from current cashflows.
The recent acquisition of Phoenix Platinum Mining (Pty) Ltd (Phoenix Platinum) does not change the gold focus of the Company. Preliminary sampling and recovery results have exceeded expectations and management’s proactive actions could see plant construction as early as the first half of 2010, with production likely in first half of 2011. However, this production outlook is sensitive to management’s ability to secure plant location.

Security costs are set to fall significantly at Pan African in the coming year, according to chief executive Jan Nelson who also revealed the Fairview Tailings Project could add a further 25,000 low cost ounces of gold to the production. He was speaking after a set of solid interim results, which showed the group had been tenacious in tackling costs.

The company's interims today are the culmination of a number of years of hard work that have seen Pan African transformed from promising gold explorer to cash generating miner. It has managed to withstand cost pressures to post a solid set of earnings.

“Pan African Resources (Barberton Mines) has been producing gold for more than 120 years, through two major Anglo- Boer wars, depressions, two World Wars, major changes of government from Paul Kruger, English occupation, the Apartheid Regime to Zuma. Considering the circumstances Pan African Resources must be the most stable producer on Earth.
Plus the Blue Sky…”

Barberton Mines, South Africa
Barberton first produced gold in 1886, after the discovery of the first gold nugget by Edwin Bray.
The mining complex consists of three mines: Fairview, Consort and Sheba. At present Barberton produces approximately 100,000oz of gold per annum, at an average cash cost of approximately US$45/oz, this cash cost is substantially lower than the industry standard of US$XX/oz (Source: BJM).
Barberton Mines is the birthplace of BIOX® (‘Biological Oxidation’), an environmentally friendly process of releasing the gold from the sulphide that surrounds, using organisms that perform this process naturally. Barberton is still used as the training facility for all BIOX® plants globally.
