Auditors' Report

To the Directors of

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (An exploration stage company)

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (an exploration stage company) as at August 31, 2002 and 2001 and the consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years then ended, the period from March 16, 2000 to August 31, 2000 and the cumulative period from March 16, 2000 to August 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at August 31, 2002 and 2001 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, the period from March 16, 2000 to August 31, 2000 and the cumulative period from March 16, 2000 to August 31, 2002 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Comments by Auditors on Canada - United States of America Reporting Differences

In the United States of America, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph for the following:

(a)  When financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.

(b)  To outline changes in accounting policies that have been implemented in the consolidated financial statements. Effective September 1, 2001, the Company retroactively adopted the treasury stock method for the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share.  As a result of this change, fully diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. The impact of this change in accounting policy is set out in Note 2 (h) to the consolidated financial statements.

Although we conducted our audits in accordance with both Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, our report to the Board of Directors dated October 25, 2002 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such conditions and events in the auditors' report when these are adequately disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

August 31, 2002

1. CONTINUING OPERATIONS

The Company was incorporated on February 18, 2002 by an order by the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving an amalgamation by plan of arrangement between Platinum Group Metals Ltd. ("Old Platinum") and New Millennium Metals Corporation ("New Millennium"). Old Platinum was incorporated on January 10, 2000 as 599141 B.C. Ltd. and changed its name to Platinum Group Metals Ltd. on March 16, 2000, at which time it commenced operations.  New Millennium Metals Corporation was incorporated in British Columbia on March 11, 1983 under the name Harvey Creek Gold Placers Ltd.  Later, on March 22, 1999 the Company was renamed New Millennium Metals Corporation. As a result of the amalgamation both New Millennium and Old Platinum ceased to exist as of February 18, 2002. However, as a result of the amalgamation, a new company also named Platinum Group Metals Ltd. was formed as of February 18, 2002 and it assumed all of the rights and obligations of the two predecessor corporations. As described in Note 3, Old Platinum was identified as the acquirer and the business combination was recorded as a purchase of New Millennium by Old Platinum.

The Company is an exploration and development company conducting work on mineral properties it has staked or acquired by way of option agreement principally in Ontario and the Republic of South Africa.  The Company has not yet determined whether its mineral properties contain ore reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company defers all acquisition, exploration and development costs related to mineral properties. The recoverability of these amounts is dependant upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of the property, and any future profitable production, or alternatively, upon the Company's ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles applicable on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  The Company has incurred losses from inception and does not currently have the financial resources to sustain operations in the long-term. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability in the future to achieve profitable operations and, in the meantime, to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. External financing, predominately by the issuance of equity to the public, will be sought to finance the operations of the Company; however, there is no assurance that sufficient funds will be raised.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.  If the going concern basis was not appropriate for these consolidated financial statements, then significant adjustments would be necessary to the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used.

1. CONTINUING OPERATIONS (Continued)

Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements and non-compliance with regulatory requirements.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("Canadian GAAP") and include the following significant policies outlined below.  These policies conform, in all material respects, with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"), except as described in Note 13.

(a) Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary.  During 2002, the Company formed a 100% South African subsidiary named Platinum Group Metals (RSA) (PTY) Ltd. for the purposes of holding mineral rights and conducting operations on behalf of the Company in the Republic of South Africa.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

(b) Mineral properties and deferred exploration costs

Mineral properties consist of exploration and mining concessions, options and contracts. Acquisition and leasehold costs and exploration costs are capitalized and deferred until such time as the property is put into production or the properties are disposed of either through sale or abandonments.  The estimated values of all properties are assessed by management on a continual basis and if the carrying values exceed estimated recoverable values, then these costs are written down to the estimated recoverable values. If put into production, the costs of acquisition and exploration will be written off over the life of the property, based on the estimated economic reserves. Proceeds received from the sale of any interest in a property will first be credited against the carrying value of the property, with any excess included in operations for the period. If a property is abandoned, the property and deferred exploration costs will be written off to operations.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(b) 	Mineral properties and deferred exploration costs (continued)

In March 2000, the Accounting Standards Board of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants ("CICA") issued Accounting Guideline No. 11 entitled Enterprises in the Development Stage - ("AcG 11"). The guideline addresses three distinct issues including (i) capitalization of costs/expenditures, (ii) impairment and (iii) disclosure.  Recently, the Emerging Issues Committee issued Abstract 126,Accounting by Mining Enterprises for Exploration Costs, which provided further guidance on AcG 11.  Abstract 126 concluded that a mining enterprise that has not commenced operations or objectively established mineral reserves is not precluded from considering exploration costs to have the characteristics of property, plant and equipment.  The Company has reviewed and determined that implementation of this Abstract has no material effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

Stock-based compensation plan

The Company has established a stock-based compensation plan, which is described in Note 7 (c).

Any consideration paid by employees or directors on exercise of stock options or purchase of stock is credited to share capital.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

(g) 	Income taxes

Future income taxes relate to the expected future tax consequences of differences between the carrying amount of balance sheet items and their corresponding tax values. Future tax assets, if any, are recognized only to the extent that, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that the future income tax assets will be realized. Future income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment or substantive enactment.

(h) 	Earnings (loss) per common share

As of September 1, 2001, the Company retroactively adopted the treasury stock method for the calculation of diluted earnings per share in accordance with a new Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants accounting standard.  As a result of this change, diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Common equivalent shares consist of the incremental common shares exercisable upon the exercise of stock options and are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. The impact of this change in accounting policy on the current and comparative diluted earnings per share was not material.

(i) 	Financial instruments

The carrying values of cash, short-term investments, marketable securities, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities reflected in the balance sheet approximate their respective fair values.

(j) 	Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those reported.

(k) 	Comparative figures

Certain of the prior year comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.

3. AMALGAMATION

The Company was incorporated on February 18, 2002 by an order by the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving an amalgamation by plan of arrangement between Platinum Group Metals Ltd. and New Millennium Metals Corporation.  Under the terms of the arrangement, in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of New Millennium, the shareholders of New Millennium each received one share of the new company for each 1.65 shares of New Millennium.  The new Platinum Group Metals Ltd. issued and delivered 5,468,421 shares to the shareholders of New Millennium.  Shareholders of the old Platinum Group Metals Ltd. each received one share of the new company in exchange for every one share of the old company. All of the continuing obligations of New Millennium with regard to share purchase options, warrants and share payments, with fair values of $Nil, were converted according to a ratio of 1.65:1. This business combination has been accounted for as a purchase transaction with the predecessor company, Platinum Group Metals Ltd., identified as the acquirer and New Millennium identified as the acquiree. Consideration to the shareholders of New Millennium Metals Corporation consisted of 5,468,421 shares of the Company at a price of $0.24 per share. Costs of the amalgamation totaled $231,325.  The total cost to the Company was therefore $1,541,710.  The results of operations and financial position of New Millennium were consolidated with the accounts of the Company with effect from February 18, 2002.

New Millennium optioned the Agnew Lake property to PFN on June 18, 2000. PFN may acquire 50% of the Company's rights and interests in Agnew Property by issuing 125,000 shares to the Company, (which have been received), making cash payments to the Company totaling $200,000 over four years, (of which $65,000 has been received) and completing $500,000 in exploration over four years. In the event that PFN does not incur the required $500,000 in exploration expenses on its own account, they may exercise their option by payment to the Company of any remaining unspent balance in PFN common shares.

In late 2001 New Millennium and PFN agreed to amend the Agnew Lake Option Agreement so that PFN will make annual payments of 75,000 PFN shares towards the exercise of their option.  It was agreed that these shares not be valued at less than $0.60 per share for the purpose of exercising PFN's option. To date, the Company has received one payment of 75,000 PFN shares towards the exercise of PFN's option. PFN has not reported any exploration expenditures spent on the project to its own account.

PFN is the project operator and will be responsible for completion of all assessment and filing requirements as long as it remains operator.

On June 22, 2001 New Millennium and PFN optioned their interests in the property to Kaymin Resources Limited ("Kaymin"). Kaymin may acquire a 50% interest in the combined rights and interests of New Millennium and PFN by making cash payments of $200,000 to each party (which have been received) and incurring exploration expenditures of not less than $6,000,000 by December 31, 2004.  Kaymin's work expenditures will satisfy the balance of the Company's total work commitment to the original vendors. Kaymin can earn an additional 10% by completing a bankable feasibility study and arranging financing for any development or construction.

On November 1, 2001 New Millennium and PFN entered into an option agreement with ProAm Explorations Corporation to acquire a 100% interest in three additional claims adjacent to the Agnew Lake property by making cash payments of $30,000, issuing 29,091 shares of the Company, 8,485 of which have been issued to August 31, 2002, and 21,000 shares of PFN over two years and completing $400,000 in exploration expenditures over a four-year period.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to year-end the Company entered into an option agreement with Ledig Minerale Regte 909 JQ (pty) Ltd. ("Ledig Minerale") whereby the Company may earn a 55% interest in Ledig Minerale's holdings on the Ledig Farm property located in the Western Bushveld area near Sun City, South Africa, approximately 100km northwest of Johannesburg. At August 31, 2002 the Company had incurred $25,578 in costs relating to the property and these costs have been deferred. Ledig Minerale holds variable interests in the property. The 1,400 hectares that make up the property are divided into shares. Ledig Minerale currently holds a 90% interest on two portions that are 235 hectares in size. They also hold a 70% interest in 462 hectares and a 50% interest in 468 hectares. The Company may earn approximately a 50% interest in the total property.

To earn its interests under the option agreement, the Company must make cash payments to the vendors of SAR 40,000,000 (approximately C $5.9 million) over 2 years.  The initial payment of SAR 1,000,000 (C $157,000) was due 10 days from signing the agreement and was paid on September 20, 2002. In addition the Company must incur exploration and development expenditures of SAR 30,000,000 (approximately C $4.4 million) over 3 years. Further payments by the Company are contingent upon completion of certain title confirmation procedures by Ledig Minerale and the granting of a valid prospecting license by the Government of the Republic of South Africa.

(a) Exploration expenses

Canadian GAAP allows exploration costs to be capitalized during the search for a commercially mineable body of ore.  Under U.S. GAAP, exploration expenditures on mineral property costs can only be deferred subsequent to the establishment of mining reserves. For U.S. GAAP purposes the Company has expensed exploration expenditures related to exploration in the period incurred.

(b) 	Flow through shares

Under Canadian GAAP, flow through shares are recorded at their face value, net of related issuance costs. When eligible expenditures are made, the carrying value of these expenditures may exceed their tax value. The tax effect of this temporary difference is recorded as a cost of issuing the shares.

(b) 	Flow through shares (continued)

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") staff has taken the view that under SFAS No. 109,Accounting for Income Taxes, the proceeds from issuance should be allocated between the offering of shares and the sale of tax benefits.  The allocation is made based on the difference between the quoted price of the existing shares and the amount the investor pays for the shares. A liability is recognized for this difference. The liability is reversed when tax benefits are renounced and a deferred tax liability is recognized at that time.  Income tax expense is the difference between the amount of deferred tax liability and the liability recognized on issuance.  The flow-through shares issued during the year were granted at the fair value of existing non flow-through shares. As such, no liability was recognized for the difference between the quoted price of the existing shares and the amount paid for the flow -through shares.

(c) 	Accounting for stock-based compensation

For U.S. GAAP purposes the Company accounts for stock based compensation to employees and directors under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, ("APB No. 25"), using the intrinsic value based method whereby compensation costs is recorded for the excess, if any, of the quoted market price at the date granted over the exercise price. As at August 31, 2002 no compensation cost has been recorded for any period under this method.

SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires the use of the fair value based method of accounting for stock options.  Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the options granted and is recognized over the vesting period. During the year ended August 31, 2002, the Company issued options to individuals other than employees and directors, which, under SFAS No. 123, resulted in $286,000 (2001 - $1,250) of consulting expenses.

(c) 	Accounting for stock-based compensation (continued)

SFAS No. 123, however allows the Company to continue to measure the compensation cost of employees in accordance with APB No. 25.  The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123.

The following pro forma financial information presents the net loss for the year ended August 31, 2002 and the loss per share had the Company adopted SFAS 123 for all stock options issued to directors, officers and employees.

Using the fair value method for stock based compensation, additional costs of approximately $155,000 (2001 - $82,000) would have been recorded for the year ended August 31, 2002.  This amount is determined using an option pricing model assuming no dividends are to be paid, vesting occurring on the date of the grant, a weighted average volatility of the Company's share price of 60% and 168% and an annual risk free interest rate of 4.08%.

FASB Interpretation 44 states that when fixed stock option awards to employees and directors are modified, the stock options must be accounted for as variable from the date of modification to the date the stock options are exercised, forfeited or expire unexercised.

Consequently, the 313,028 stock options issued to employees and directors that were repriced on March 6, 2002 are now considered to be variable and any increase in the market price over the reduced exercise price must be recognized as compensation cost. As at August 31, 2002, the market price of the Company's common shares was $0.96 per share resulting in compensation expense of $142,747.

(d) 	Comprehensive income

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which requires that an enterprise report, by major components and as a single total, the change in its net assets during the period from non-owner sources.  The impact of SFAS No. 130 on the Company's financial statements is as follows:

|                              |   |             |  |   |            |  | Period from    |

(e) 	Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which standardizes the accounting for derivative instruments. SFAS No. 133 is effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.  The Company does not engage in hedging activities or invest in derivative instruments. Therefore, adoption of SFAS No. 133 has no significant financial impact.

(f) 	Recent accounting pronouncements

In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS Nos. 141 and 142 ("SFAS 141" and
"SFAS 142"),

Business CombinationsandGoodwill and Other Intangible Assets.SFAS 141 replaces APB 16 and eliminates pooling-of-interests accounting prospectively. It also provides guidance on purchase accounting related to the recognition of intangible assets and accounting for negative goodwill. SFAS 142 changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. Under SFAS 142, goodwill will be tested annually and whenever events or circumstances occur indicating that goodwill might be impaired. SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 are effective for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Upon adoption of SFAS 142, amortization of goodwill recorded for business combinations consummated prior to July 1, 2001 will cease, and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001 that do not meet the criteria for recognition under SFAS 141 will be reclassified to goodwill. Companies are required to adopt SFAS 142 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, but early adoption is permitted. The Company has not recorded any goodwill and, therefore, the application of SFAS 141 and 142 did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.  SFAS 144 replaces SFAS 121,Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. The FASB issued SFAS 144 to establish a single accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS 121, as SFAS 121 did not address the accounting for a segment of a business accounted for as a discontinued operation under APB 30,Reporting The Results of OperationsReporting The Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. SFAS 144 also resolves significant implementation issues related to SFAS 121. Companies are required to adopt SFAS 144 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, but early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt SFAS 144 as of January 1, 2002. The Company has determined that the application of SFAS 144 will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

(f) 	Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145,Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. Among other things, SFAS No. 145 rescinds both SFAS No. 4,Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and the amendment to SFAS No. 4, SFAS No. 64,

Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements. Through this rescission, SFAS No. 145 eliminates the requirement (in both SFAS No. 4 and SFAS No. 64) that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of the related income tax effect. Generally, SFAS No. 145 is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002. The Company does not expect SFAS No. 145 to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or its financial position.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal of Activities.  SFAS No. 146 requires that the liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized at its fair value when the liability is incurred. Under previous guidance, a liability for certain exit costs was recognized at the date that management committed to an exit plan, which was generally before the actual liability had been incurred. As SFAS No. 146 is effective only for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, the Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

|1. | ANALYSIS OF EXPENSES AND DEFERRED COSTS
|-- | ---------------------------------------

a) General and Administrative ExpensesGeneral and administrative expenses for the period totaled $812,512 (2001 - $425,687), net of interest and other

DISCUSSION

DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS

The
Company was incorporated on February 18, 2002 by an order of the Supreme Court
of British Columbia approving an amalgamation by plan of arrangement between
Platinum Group Metals Ltd. and New Millennium Metals Corporation. Platinum Group
Metals Ltd. was incorporated on January 10, 2000 as 599141 B.C. Ltd. and changed
its name to Platinum Group Metals Ltd. on March 16, 2000, at which time it
commenced operations. New Millennium Metals Corporation was incorporated in
British Columbia on March 11, 1983 under the name Harvey Creek Gold Placers Ltd.
Later, on March 22, 1999 the Company was renamed New Millennium Metals
Corporation. As a result of the amalgamation both New Millennium Metals
Corporation and Platinum Group Metals Ltd. ceased to exist as of February 18,
2002. However, as a result of the amalgamation, a new company also named
Platinum Group Metals Ltd. was formed and it assumed all of the rights and
obligations of the two predecessor corporations.

In
exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of New Millennium, the
shareholders of New Millennium each received one share of the new company for
each 1.65 shares of New Millennium. The new Platinum Group Metals Ltd. issued
and delivered 5,468,421 shares to the shareholders of New Millennium.
Shareholders of the old Platinum Group Metals Ltd. each received one share of
the new company in exchange for every one share of the old company. All of the
continuing obligations of New Millennium with regard to share purchase options,
warrants and share payments were converted according to a ratio of 1.65:1.

The
Company is an exploration and development company conducting work primarily on
mineral properties it has staked or acquired by way of option agreement in
Ontario and the Republic of South Africa. The Company has not yet determined
whether its mineral properties contain ore reserves that are economically
recoverable. The Company defers all acquisition, exploration and development
costs related to mineral properties. The recoverability of these amounts is
dependant upon the existence of economically recoverable reserves, the ability
of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to complete the development of

Exploration
Programs and Expenditures

During
2002 the Company focused its Canadian exploration efforts on detailed geology,
geochemistry and drilling work on its properties located near Thunder Bay,
Ontario. The focus of attention has been the Shelby Lake and the Lac des Iles
River properties. The exploration and drilling programs were completed on time
and on budget. Exploration results have been positive and further work is
recommended. On the Company's Agnew Lake Property located west of Sudbury,
Ontario, Joint Venture partners Pacific Northwest Capital and Kaymin Resources

Exploration
Programs and Expenditures (Continued)

Approximately
$31,000 was spent in the Northwest Territories. Cost recoveries on mineral
properties during the year amounted to $198,709 (2001 - $300,000). During the
year $1,090,871 (2001 - $7,325) in net deferred costs relating to mineral
properties were written off. A breakdown of these costs can be seen in the Note
5. of the Company's annual Audited Financial Statements.

During
2002 the Company focused its acquisition efforts on the Republic of South Africa
("RSA"). The Company has formed a 100% South African subsidiary named
Platinum Group Metals (RSA)(Pty) Ltd. for the purposes of holding mineral rights
and conducting operations on behalf of the Company in the RSA. The Company has
also entered into an exclusive services contract with GeoActiv Dynamic
Geological Services, a South African company, whereby GeoActiv will provide
expert geological consulting to the Company for the purposes of acquiring,
exploring and developing mineral properties in the RSA.

On
June 3, 2002, the Company acquired a right to earn a 100% interest in two
properties located in the Northern Limb or Platreef area of the Bushveld Complex
near Johannesburg. The properties are comprised of the 2,396 hectare War Springs
Property and the 2,177 hectare Tweespalk Property, both located on the
postulated extension of the Platreef near the PPRust Platinum Mine operated by
Anglo American Platinum Corporation Limited. Costs of investigation and
acquisition amounting to $141,450 were incurred prior to year-end and these
costs have been deferred. The Company may purchase 100% of these mineral rights
at any time over the next three years for US $475 per hectare in year one, or
US $570 per hectare in year two, or US $690 per hectare in year three. The
Company has also agreed to pay prospecting fees to the vendors of US $2.50 per
hectare in year one, US $2.75 per hectare in year two and US $3.25 per hectare
in year three. The vendors retain a 1% NSR Royalty on the Property, subject to
the Company's right to purchase the NSR at any time for US $1.4 million. A 5%
finders fee on payments made to the vendors is payable to GeoActiv Dynamic
Geological Services.

Subsequent
to year-end the Company entered into an option agreement with Ledig Minerale
Regte 909 JQ (Pty) Ltd. ("Ledig Minerale") whereby the Company may earn a
55% interest in Ledig Minerale's holdings on the Ledig Farm Property located
in the Western Bushveld area near Sun City, RSA, approximately 100km northwest
of Johannesburg. At August 31, 2002 the Company had incurred $25,578 in costs
relating to the Property and these costs have been deferred. To earn its
interests under the option agreement, the Company must make cash payments to the
vendors of SAR 40,000,000 (approximately C $5.9 million) spread over 2
years. The initial payment of SAR 1,000,000 (C $157,000) was paid on
September 20, 2002. The Company must also incur exploration and development
expenditures of SAR 30,000,000 (approximately C $4.4 million) over 3
years. Further payments by the Company are contingent upon completion of certain
title confirmation procedures by Ledig Minerale and the granting of a valid
prospecting license by the Government of the Republic of South Africa.

c)

Administration
Expenses

Administration
expenses and professional fees in 2002 were $835,540 (2001 - $486,269).
Increased costs in 2002 relate to the increased level of activity in 2002. The
Company was still private during half of 2001. During the year 2002 the Company
grew substantially through its amalgamation with New Millennium Metals
Corporation and its expansion into the Republic of South Africa. An amount of
$47,391 in expenses relate to Part XII.6 tax applied by the Federal Government
on unspent flow-through funds which were rescinded to shareholders for the
previous year under the look-back provisions of the flow-through tax
regulations. An amount of $30,467 was expensed for new Property investigations
during the period. Interest and other income for the year totaled $23,028.

Shareholder
Relation Expense

Shareholder
relation services were incurred during the year in accordance with approved
contracts with Roth Investor Relations and Defero Corporate Communications. For
the year the Company incurred shareholder relations expenses totaling $203,138
(2001 - $74,452). Such expenses in 2001 were lower than in 2002 as the Company
was private for half of that year. During 2002 the Company was active in raising
its profile with both retail and institutional investors. As of April 2001 Roth
Investor Relations are paid a retainer fee of US $4,000 per month, plus
expenses. They provide distribution of the Company's information primarily to
US institutions and other international analysts and money managers. Roth has
offices in New Jersey, USA and affiliated offices in London and Johannesburg.
Mr. Larry Roth is the Company's primary contact with the firm. The Roth
contract had an original term of one year and since April 2002 has been
continued on a month-to-month basis.

Defero
Corporate communications was contracted in February 2002 to increase retail
investor awareness of the Company in Canada. The Defero contract included a
$10,000 signing bonus and a $5,000 monthly fee. In June 2002 the contract was
extended for a one-year term and Defero's fee has been paid in advance. Mr.
Jason Leikam is the contact for Defero.

f)

Travel
and Promotion Expenses

Travel
and Promotion expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2002 amounted to
$21,579. Costs for the year amounted to $40,966 in 2002 and $55,710 in 2001.
These activities relate to the supervision of ongoing operations, new Property
investigations and meetings with potential institutional and sophisticated
investors. During the year an amount of $27,350 was removed from travel costs
and reclassified into new property investigations.

g)

Property
Acquisition Expenses

Property
acquisition expenditures during the year totaled $2,195,517 in cash and shares.
Of this amount the Company recorded acquisition costs upon amalgamation for the
mineral properties of New Millennium Metals Corporation of $1,930,444. The
amount represents consideration paid in shares, cash, and the assumption of
future liabilities and transaction costs of $231,325. Cash and share payments
for other properties during the year include $43,250 to acquire the interest in
the Stucco Property, $29,000 for the Dog River Property, $25,000 for the Agnew
Lake Property, $27,273 for the Taman Property, $29,874 for the Warsprings
Property, $17,826 for the Ledig Property and $5,000 for Tweespalk.

The
sum of all payments required to perfect all of the Company's mineral rights
are greater than its currently available working capital. The Company evaluates
its Property interests on an ongoing basis and intends to abandon properties
that fail to remain prospective. The Company is confident that it will be able
to meet its earn-in obligations on those properties which management considers
being of merit. At the time of writing the Company was incurring further
Property acquisition expenses through its activities in the Republic of South
Africa.
