Anglo American Platinum Ltd. on Thursday lowered production
guidance for 2022 after its operations were hurt by heavy rainfall
in the first quarter.
The South African miner revised its refined production outlook
to 4.0 million-4.4 million ounces of platinum group metals from 4.2
million-4.6 million previously. Unit cost per ounce has been raised
to 14,000-15,000 rand ($932-$998) from the previous
ZAR13,800-ZAR14,500.
The company said that its total production of platinum,
palladium, rhodium, iridium, ruthenium and gold fell 6% to 956,000
ounces in the first quarter compared with the immediately prior
period, reflecting heavy rainfall and redirected mining into
lower-grade areas. In addition, Covid-19 hampered the delivery of
equipment, it said.
Shares in parent group Anglo American PLC at 0730 GMT were down
6.0% at 3,795 pence.
