Wesizwe Platinum Limited announced that hot commissioning of the Bakubung Platinum Mine ("BPM") processing plant ("BPM Processing Plant") would commence on 31 May 2023. Due to faults in the ring gear of the ball mill and the feeding mixing tanks of the tailing filter press, the hot commissioning process could not ensue on the aforementioned date. The Company hereby advises shareholders that the hot commissioning of the BPM Processing Plant will now commence on 5 June 2023, and that production at the BPM is expected to commence as soon as possible after the commissioning process of the BPM Processing Plant has been completed.

The Company will update shareholders and investors on the progress at the BPM, and further announcements will be made in this regard, as and when appropriate.
