(a) These losses arise from the derecognition of property, plant and equipment that are no longer in use. No future economic benefits are expected from the use or disposal of these assets. The amount in 2017 relates to the abandonment of individual surface assets that were no longer core to the group's business.

(b) The majority of the foreign exchange gains and losses relates to the US$ borrowings. Refer to note 29 for more details.

(c) Refer to note 26 for details on the movement in the silicosis settlement provision.

(d) Pursuant to the adoption of IFRS 9 on 1 July 2018 (refer to note 2), the ARM BBEE Trust loan is carried at fair value through profit or loss with movement in fair value recognised in net gains on financial instruments (refer to note 8). In 2018, the provision was reversed following an increase in African Rainbow Minerals Limited's share price and dividends paid in the period between July 2017 and June 2018, which form part of the recoverability test at 30 June 2018. Refer to note 17 for further details on the loan.
