The Company holds the right to mine the Dutoitspan diamond mine which it leases
to De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited, in terms of an agreement dated 30 August
1889, for an annual consideration of R84 560 and it is anticipated that the
results for the second half of the year will be approximately the same as for
the first half.

CANCELLATION OF LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE LISTING

In a letter dated 2 July 2002 shareholders were informed of the board's decision
to arrange for the cancellation of the listing of the Company's shares on the
Official List of the UK Listing Authority with effect from Friday, 2 August
2002. After that date trading of the Company's shares on the London Stock
Exchange will no longer be possible.

Following cancellation of the listing of the Company's shares, the United
Kingdom section of the share register will be closed and the names and addresses
contained therein will in future be administered from the principal share
register maintained by the Company at its registered office in South Africa,
details of which are included below. However, arrangements have been made to
ensure that those shareholders with registered addresses in Europe (including
the United Kingdom), or who have mandated dividend payments to addresses in
Europe (including the United Kingdom), will continue to receive payment of their
dividends in United Kingdom currency and that any existing dividend mandates
remain in place.

For and on behalf of the board
