Merafe achieved a profit of R720 million for the six months ended 30 June 2024, as a result of higher realised chrome ore prices and a weaker ZAR:USD exchange rate. Ferrochrome prices remain strained and cost increases continue to put pressure on margins. The efficiency of our operations provided some buffer to protect our profitability.
