Telephone:  (604) 899-5450     Facsimile:   (604) 484-4710

Item 2.                      Date of Material Change  March 5, 2009

Item 3.                      News Release

A news release was disseminated on March 5, 2009 to the TSX as well as through various other approved public media and was SEDAR filed with the British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec Securities Commissions.

Item 4.                      Summary of Material Change

Platinum Group announced an agreement with Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (“JOGMEC”), for an optional US$10 million over 5 years to earn 35% of Platinum Group’s War Springs Project interest in South Africa.

Item 5.                      Full Description of Material Change

Two drill rigs for exploration have been mobilized to the project. The first year firm commitment is US$500,000.

Platinum Group currently holds a 70% interest in the War Springs Project and Africa Wide Holdings Limited (“Africa Wide”) and Taung Platinum Exploration (Pty) Ltd. (“Taung Platinum”) each hold a 15% interest carried to feasibility study. Africa Wide is an affiliated company of Wesizwe Platinum Limited (WEZ-JSE). Taung Platinum is an affiliated company of Moepi Platinum (Pty.) Ltd., which is Platmin Ltd.’s (PPN-TSX) Black Economic Empowerment partner in South Africa.

The War Springs deposit comes to surface at a low grade but with a favourable thickness of 6.5 to 8.0 metres. Exploration at depth around the nearby open pit PPRust platinum mine has shown impressive grades and thicknesses, including, the Akanani deposit sold by Afriore to Lonmin in 2007. Deep drilling has never been executed at War Springs and it will be a part of the program funded by JOGMEC. The War Springs property covers 22 square kilometres and is located 24 kilometres south of the Anglo Platinum open pit PPRust Platinum mine along the same “Platreef” section of the Bushveld Complex.

An Inferred Resource estimation announced March 17, 2008 of 47.0 Mt at an average grade of 1.11 g/t 2PGE+Au and thus a metal content of 1.676 million ounces for the B and C Reefs combined, using a 2PGE+Au cut-off of 300 cmg/t.

The War Springs Mineral Resource is characterised by two distinct reef layers, termed the "B" and "C" reefs. Both reefs are typically greater than 6m thick. The reefs outcrop on surface and extend down dip in parallel sheets at a 65 degree angle to a depth of 400 metres, remaining open at depth. A 5% geological loss has been applied.

Of the 22 boreholes drilled, 15 boreholes intersected the “B” Reef and 8 boreholes intersected the “C” Reef.  Drilling results from Phase 1 and 2 covering approximately 2,200 metres of strike length on a 250 metre spacing, combined with a review of the cut-off, form the basis of the updated Inferred Mineral Resource estimation which was reported in a NI 43-101 document, compiled by Minxcon (Pty) Ltd, dated March 2008.

Item 6. Reliance on subsection 7.1 of national Instrument 51-102 N/A

News Release No. 09-170 March 5, 2009

PLATINUM GROUP METALS SIGNS US$10 MILLION OPTION FUNDING AGREEMENT FOR WAR SPRINGS PROJECT

(Vancouver/Johannesburg) Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (PTM-TSX; PLG-NYSE Alternext US) (“Platinum Group”) announces an agreement with Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (“JOGMEC”), an incorporated administrative institution of the Government of Japan, for an optional US$10 million over 5 years to earn 35% of Platinum Group’s War Springs Project interest in South Africa. Two drill rigs for exploration have been mobilized to the project. The first year firm commitment is US$500,000.

Platinum Group currently holds a 70% interest in the War Springs Project and Africa Wide Holdings Limited (“Africa Wide”) and Taung Platinum Exploration (Pty) Ltd. (“Taung Platinum”) each hold a 15% interest carried to feasibility study. Africa Wide is an affiliated company of Wesizwe Platinum Limited (WEZ-JSE). Taung Platinum is an affiliated company of Moepi Platinum (Pty.) Ltd., which is Platmin Ltd.’s (PPN-TSX) Black Economic Empowerment partner in South Africa.

“We are pleased to partner with JOGMEC and we hope to expand this relationship over the long term” said R. Michael Jones, President and CEO of Platinum Group Metals Ltd. “Our planned exploration at War Springs is part of our overall focus on competitive platinum deposits in any conceivable market. We have already defined a large near surface resource at our main project in the Western Bushveld Joint Venture that fits that criterion. At War Springs we are exploring at surface along strike from our current deposit and at depth. In the deeper areas our target is not a typical narrow reef but rather bulk material for potential low cost mining. Given the pressures on labour, safety, capital, and operating margins in South Africa, source of 80% of the world’s platinum, we believe that there will be an increasing trend towards more competitive shallow areas and bulk new targets.”

The War Springs deposit comes to surface at a low grade but with a favourable thickness of 6.5 to 8.0 metres. Exploration at depth around the nearby open pit PPRust platinum mine has shown impressive grades and thicknesses, including, the Akanani deposit sold by Afriore to Lonmin in 2007. Deep drilling has never been executed at War Springs and it will be a part of the program funded by JOGMEC. The War Springs property covers 22 square kilometres and is located 24 kilometres south of the Anglo Platinum open pit PPRust Platinum mine along the same “Platreef” section of the Bushveld Complex.

Willie Visser Exploration Manager of Platinum Group Metals Ltd. said “With this deal we re-activate our exploration at War Springs and continue the work of our highly successful, experienced in-house platinum exploration team. We also have a number of other projects in our new business pipeline and we hope to expand our Joint Venture based exploration.”

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission permits U.S. mining companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only those mineral deposits that a company can economically and legally extract or produce. We use certain terms in this press release, such as “Measured,” “Indicated,” and “Inferred,” “resources,” that the SEC does not recognize and SEC guidelines strictly prohibit U.S. registered companies from including in their filings with the SEC.

U.S. investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in our Form 40-F, File No. 0-30306, which may be secured from us, or from the SEC’s website at: http://sec.gov/edgar.shtml. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Power availability is a risk to the project plans.

The War Springs Mineral Resource is characterised by two distinct reef layers, termed the "B" and "C" reefs. Both reefs are typically greater than 6m thick. The reefs outcrop on surface and extend down dip in parallel sheets at a 65 degree angle to a depth of 400 metres, remaining open at depth. A 5% geological loss has been applied.

Of the 22 boreholes drilled, 15 boreholes intersected the “B” Reef and 8 boreholes intersected the “C” Reef.  Drilling results from Phase 1 and 2 covering approximately 2,200 metres of strike length on a 250 metre spacing, combined with a review of the cut-off, form the basis of the updated Inferred Mineral Resource estimation which was reported in a NI 43-101 document, compiled by Minxcon (Pty) Ltd, dated March 2008.
