Platinum Group Metals Approves $100 Million Construction Budget and Awards EPCM Contract
WBJV Project 1 Platinum Mine

(Vancouver/Johannesburg) Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (PTM-TSX; PLG-NYSE:AMEX) (“Platinum Group” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has approved a budget for $100m for the construction of the WBJV Project 1 Platinum Mine. The budget has also been unanimously approved by the Board of Maseve Investments 11 Pty Ltd. “Maseve”, the WBJV operating company where Platinum Group holds the right to increase its interest to 74% and Wesizwe Platinum (WEZ-JSE) holds a 26% interest.

Platinum Group Metals as manager of the WBJV Project 1 Platinum Mine, has appointed DRA Mining Pty Ltd. for Engineering, Procurement and Construction Management, (“EPCM”) for the surface infrastructure and underground development planned at the WBJV Project 1 Platinum mine. This work has commenced. Project 1 is located near Rustenburg, South Africa and adjoins the Wesizwe Platinum Mine construction.  Project 1 also adjoins the Styldrift mine construction and producing Bafokeng Rasimone Platinum Mine, both owned by Royal Bafokeng Platinum Ltd. (RBP - JSE).

R. Michael Jones, President of Platinum Group Metals Ltd., said “We are pleased that both partners in the WBJV operating company have resolved to move ahead as planned. It is excellent to see such a strong project team, with a successful record working together in the past, being re-assembled so quickly for our WBJV Project 1. We are on track with our implementation plan.”

The EPCM contract with DRA will provide approximately 30 full time professionals to oversee and plan the execution of the development of surface infrastructure, power delivery, water delivery, civil works and excavations and the development of underground tunnels to access ore over the next 18 months. DRA’s scope of work will include engineering, design, construction management, administration and cost and schedule control.  This work is now underway.

DRA is a global engineering firm that has managed more than 55 platinum mine developments and operations in South Africa. DRA will work closely with the Company’s Project Manager and Owner’s Representative Mr. Thys Uys.  Platinum Group Metals and Mr. Uys have recently expanded the owners team to include a dedicated quantity surveyor for cost engineering services, contract and capital control administrators and a permitting consultant responsible for the Environmental Impact Assessment and Management Plan, all who have worked with Thys Uys before on large scale mining construction projects.

PLATINUM GROUP METALS LTD.                                                                                                          …2

DRA has started work on the detailed project implementation for power and water so that as soon as detailed permits for excavations are in place they are able to start work on site. Allocations for construction power and water from existing infrastructure have been confirmed.

The budget developed for underground access has been generally consistent with the budget for such phases of work in the Updated Feasibility Study (October 2009, www.SEDAR.com). The underground mining contract for the sinking of declines will go out to tender in the weeks ahead and a more detailed review of implementation costs will be completed following the award of this contract.

Platinum Group Metals and Maseve have exercised their option to purchase the Sundown Ranch and facilities and have made the required final deposit under this agreement of ZAR117M (C$16.7M). The transfer of the hotel assets to Maseve will occur in the months ahead and the plan is for the hotel and facilities to continue as is as part of the community under a management contract with the current manager. In addition to covering the surface rights over the mining area, the Sundown Ranch will provide part of the housing needs for construction, site offices and facilities and importantly, can be part of a regional training effort for the community.

Platinum Group Metals also announces the appointment of Mr. Herbert Medopi as Manager of Permitting, Government and Stakeholder Relations. Mr. Medopi has a successful track record of ensuring that large scale projects follow a proper permitting process so that all stakeholders can have their views heard and projects can therefore develop in a responsible manner.

A shareholder who has given a proxy may revoke it by an instrument in writing executed by the shareholder or by his attorney duly authorized in writing or, where the shareholder is a corporation, by a duly authorized officer or attorney of the corporation, and delivered to the registered office of the Company, at Suite 2300, 550 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2B5 (Attention: Daniel M. Allen) at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, or if adjourned, any reconvening thereof, or to the Chairman of the Meeting on the day of the meeting or, if adjourned, any reconvening thereof, or in any other manner provided by law.  A revocation of a proxy does not affect any matter on which a vote has been taken prior to the revocation.

INFORMATION FOR NON-REGISTERED SHAREHOLDERS

Only registered shareholders or duly appointed proxyholders are permitted to vote at the Meeting.  Most shareholders of the Company are “non-registered” shareholders because the shares they own are not registered in their names but are instead registered in the names of a brokerage firm, bank or other intermediary or in the name of a clearing agency.  Shareholders who do not hold their shares in their own name (referred to herein as “Beneficial Shareholders”) should note that only registered shareholders may vote at the Meeting.  If common shares are listed in an account statement provided to a shareholder by a broker, then in almost all cases those common shares will not be registered in such shareholder’s name on the records of the Company.  Such common shares will more likely be registered under the name of the shareholder’s broker or an agent of that broker.  In Canada, the vast m ajority of such shares are registered under the name of CDS & Co. (the registration name for CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc., which acts as nominee for many Canadian brokerage firms).  Common shares held by brokers (or their agents or nominees) on behalf of a broker’s client can only be voted (for or against resolutions) at the direction of the Beneficial Shareholder.  Without specific instructions, brokers and their agents and nominees are prohibited from voting shares for the brokers’ clients.  

- 2 -

Therefore, each Beneficial Shareholder should ensure that voting instructions are communicated to the appropriate person well in advance of the Meeting.

Existing regulatory policy requires brokers and other intermediaries to seek voting instructions from Beneficial Shareholders in advance of shareholders’ meetings.  The various brokers and other intermediaries have their own mailing procedures and provide their own return instructions to clients, which should be carefully followed by Beneficial Shareholders in order to ensure that their common shares are voted at the Meeting.  Often the form of proxy supplied to a Beneficial Shareholder by its broker is identical to the form of proxy provided by the Company to the registered shareholders.  However, its purpose is limited to instructing the registered shareholder (i.e. the broker or agent of the broker) how to vote on behalf of the Beneficial Shareholder.  The majority of brokers now delegate responsibility for obtaining instructions from clients to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) .  Broadridge typically prepares a machine-readable voting instruction form, mails those forms to the Beneficial Shareholders and asks Beneficial Shareholders to return the forms to Broadridge, or otherwise communicate voting instructions to Broadridge (by way of the internet or telephone, for example).  Broadridge then tabulates the results of all instructions received and provides appropriate instructions respecting the voting of common shares to be represented at the Meeting.  A Beneficial Shareholder who receives a Broadridge voting instruction form cannot use that form to vote common shares directly at the Meeting.  The voting instruction form must be returned to Broadridge (or instructions respecting the voting of common shares must be communicated to Broadridge) well in advance of the Meeting in order to have the common shares voted.

This Information Circular and accompanying materials are being sent to both registered shareholders and Beneficial Shareholders.  Beneficial Shareholders fall into two categories – those who object to their identity being known to the issuers of securities which they own (“Objecting Beneficial Owners”, or “OBOs”) and those who do not object to their identity being made known to the issuers of the securities they own (“Non-Objecting Beneficial Owners”, or “NOBOs”).  Subject to the provisions of National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer (“NI 54-101”), issuers may request and obtain a list of their NOBOs from intermediaries via their transfer agents.  If you are a Beneficial Shareholder, and the Company or its agent has sent these materials directly to you, your name, address and i nformation about your holdings of common shares have been obtained in accordance with applicable securities regulatory requirements from the intermediary holding the common shares on your behalf.

The Company has decided to take advantage of the provisions of NI 54-101 that permit it to deliver proxy-related materials directly to its NOBOs.  By choosing to send these materials to you directly, the Company (and not the intermediary holding common shares on your behalf) has assumed responsibility for (i) delivering these materials to you, and (ii) executing your proper voting instructions.  As a result if you are a NOBO of the Company, you can expect to receive a scannable Voting Instruction Form (“VIF”) from Computershare.  Please complete and return the VIF to Computershare in the envelope provided or by facsimile.  In addition, telephone voting and internet voting can be found in the VIF.  Computershare will tabulate the results of the VIF’s received from the Company’s NOBOs and will provide appropriate instructions at the Meeting with respect to the shares represented by the VIF’s they receive.

The Company’s OBOs can expect to be contacted by Broadridge or their brokers or their broker’s agents as set out above.

Although Beneficial Shareholders may not be recognized directly at the Meeting for the purposes of voting common shares registered in the name of his broker, a Beneficial Shareholder may attend the Meeting as proxyholder for the registered shareholder and vote the common shares in that capacity.  Beneficial Shareholders who wish to attend the Meeting and indirectly vote their common shares as proxyholder for the registered shareholder should enter their own names in the blank space on the proxy provided to them and return the same to their broker (or the broker’s agent) in accordance with the instructions provided by such broker.

All references to shareholders in this Information Circular and the accompanying form of Proxy and Notice of Meeting are to registered shareholders of record unless specifically stated otherwise.

STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

For the purposes of this Information Circular, a Named Executive Officer (“NEO”) of the Company means each of the following individuals:

(a)

the chief executive officer (“CEO”) of the Company;

(b)

the chief financial officer (“CFO”) of the Company;

(c)

each of the Company’s three most highly compensated executive officers, or the three most highly compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity, other than the CEO and CFO, at August 31, 2010 whose total compensation was, individually, more than $150,000, as determined in accordance with subsection 1.3(6) of Form 51-102F6, for that financial year; and

(d)

each individual who would be an NEO under paragraph (c) above but for the fact that the individual was neither an executive officer of the Company, nor acting in a similar capacity, at August 31, 2010.

During the year ended August 31, 2010, the Company had three NEOs: R. Michael Jones, the President and CEO of the Company; Frank Hallam, the CFO of the Company; and Peter C. Busse, the Chief Operating Officer of the Company.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (“CD&A”)

The Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board is responsible for ensuring that the Company has in place an appropriate plan for executive compensation and for making recommendations to the Board with respect to the compensation of the Company’s executive officers.  The Compensation Committee ensures that total compensation paid to all active NEOs is fair and reasonable and is consistent with the Company’s compensation philosophy.  The Company’s Compensation Committee is comprised of Barry W. Smee, Iain D.C. McLean and Eric Carlson, all of whom are independent directors of the Company.

The Company does not generate operating cash flows and relies on equity financings to fund its exploration and corporate activities.  Therefore, as the Company seeks to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled and experienced executive officers, it must at the same time consider current market and industry circumstances and the Company’s liquidity and ability to raise further capital.

The mineral exploration and development industry is extremely competitive and active for executive officers and other employees.  From mid-calendar 2008 through the Company’s August 31, 2009 year end, the global economic environment deteriorated significantly resulting in a general reduction in the availability of equity financing in the industry and in lower markets in general.  These poor market conditions and associated long term market uncertainties had an impact on executive compensation decisions made during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010.  The CD&A that follows outlines the Company’s Executive Compensation components and philosophies, which at times during the early part of the year, was tempered by the Company’s desire to preserve capital in light of uncertain economic circumstances.

- 6 -

Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Company’s principal goal is to create value for its shareholders.  The Company’s compensation philosophy reflects this goal, and is based on the following fundamental principles:

1.

Compensation programs align with shareholder interests – the Company aligns the goals of executive officers with maximizing long term shareholder value;

2.

Performance sensitive – compensation for executive officers should be linked to operating and market performance of the Company and fluctuate with the performance; and

3.

Offer market competitive compensation to attract and retain talent – the compensation program should provide market competitive pay in terms of value and structure in order to retain existing employees who are performing according to their objectives and to attract new individuals of the highest caliber.  

The Company does not have a formal compensation program with set benchmarks; however, the Company does have an informal program designed to encourage, compensate and reward employees on the basis of individual and corporate performance, including but not limited to the Company’s common share price, both in the short and the long term, and to align the interests of executive officers with the interest of the Company’s shareholders.  This alignment of interests is achieved by making long term equity-based incentives through the granting of stock options, a significant component of executive compensation (on the assumption that the performance of the Company’s common share price over the long term is an important indicator of long term performance).

The objectives of the compensation program in compensating the active NEOs are derived from the above-mentioned compensation philosophy and are as follows: to attract, motivate and retain highly skilled and experienced executive officers; to align the interests of executive officers with shareholders’ interests and with the execution of the Company business strategy; and, to tie compensation directly to those measurements and rewards based on achieving and exceeding performance expectations.

Competitive Compensation

The Company is dependent on individuals with specialized skills and knowledge related to the exploration for and development of mineral prospects, corporate finance and management.  Therefore, the Company seeks to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled and experienced executive officers by providing competitive compensation.  The Compensation Committee reviews data related to compensation levels and programs of various companies that are similar in size to the Company and operate within the mining exploration and development industry, prior to making its recommendations to the Board.  The Compensation Committee also relies on the experience of its members as officers and/or directors of other companies in similar lines of business as the Company in assessing compensation levels.  These other companies are identified under section 1(d) of “Schedule “A” – Corporate Governance Practices” attached to this Information Circular.  

The purpose of this process is to:

·

understand the competitiveness of current pay levels for each executive position relative to companies with similar revenues and business characteristics;

·

identify and understand any gaps that may exist between actual compensation levels and market compensation levels; and

·

establish as a basis for developing salary adjustments and short-term and long-term incentive awards for the Compensation Committee’s approval and recommendation to the Board.  

- 7 -

Elements of Executive Compensation

A combination of fixed and variable compensation is used to motivate executives to achieve overall corporate goals.  For the financial year ended August 31, 2010, the three basic components of executive officer compensation were:

·

base salary;

·

annual incentives (cash bonus); and

·

option based awards (long term compensation).

Base salary comprises the portion of executive compensation that is fixed, whereas annual incentives and option based compensation represent compensation that is “at risk” and thus may or may not be paid to the respective executive officer depending on: (i) whether the executive officer is able to meet or exceed his or her applicable performance expectations; (ii) market performance of the Company’s common shares; and, (iii) the Company’s liquidity and ability to raise further capital in the prevailing economic environment.

No specific formulae have been developed to assign a specific weighting to each of these components.  Instead, the Compensation Committee reviews each element of compensation for market competitiveness, and it may weigh a particular element more heavily based on the NEO’s role and responsibilities within the Company.  The focus is on remaining competitive in the market with respect to ‘total compensation’ as opposed to within any one component of executive compensation.

The Compensation Committee reviews on an annual basis the cash compensation, performance and overall compensation package of each active NEO.  It then submits to the Board recommendations with respect to base salary adjustments, bonuses and participation in option based compensation arrangements for each executive officer.  

Base salary is targeted to be competitive in the market place in order to attract and retain qualified individuals to the Company and then typically serves as the foundation for determining annual and long-term incentive plan amounts.  The actual amount of annual incentive is decided based on individual performance and the discretion of the Compensation Committee.  Long term compensation is targeted to be competitive in the market place, but is positioned in such a way as to have significant pay at risk and dependent upon the long term success of the Company.

 Base Salary

The Compensation Committee and the Board of directors approve the salary ranges for the active NEOs.  Base salaries are set with the goal of being competitive with corporations of a comparable size and at the same stage of development, thereby enabling the Company to compete for and retain executive officers critical to the Company’s long-term success.  In determining the base salary of an executive officer, the Compensation Committee places equal weight on the following criteria:

·

the particular responsibilities related to the position;

·

salaries paid by comparable businesses;

·

the experience level of the executive officer; and

·

his or her overall performance or expected performance (in the case of a newly hired executive officer).

The Compensation Committee makes an assessment of these criteria, and using this information together with budgetary guidelines and other internally generated planning and forecasting tools, performs an annual assessment of the compensation of all executive officer and employee compensation levels.  To date, comparative data for the Company’s peer group has been accumulated internally, without the use of any external independent consultants or compensation specialists.  The Compensation Committee has had access to other public company data through available information and other public company Boards where the members serve.

- 8 -

During the financial year ending August 31, 2010, approximately: $285,579(2009 - $200,967) was paid as base fees to the Company’s President, $241,667 (2009 - $185,000) was paid as base salary for the Company’s CFO and $246,000 (2009 - $225,667) was paid as base salary for the Company’s COO.  Employee salaries are based on fair market value and individual performance assessed by management.  Incentives and options are considered separately from base salary.

Annual incentives (Cash Bonus)

Executive officers are eligible for an annual discretionary bonus, payable in cash.  The Board approves such annual incentives and the Board relies heavily on the recommendations of the Compensation Committee in granting them.  The Compensation Committee assesses each active NEO’s performance and his or her respective contribution to the Company’s success, and after taking into account the financial and operating performance of the Company, makes a recommendation to the Board.  Competitive levels of base salary, comparisons and option based awards are considered when setting incentives.  Overall compensation is considered as a whole including annual incentives.

In the financial year ended August 31, 2010 the Company’s CEO was paid a cash bonus of $82,500, the Company’s CFO was paid a cash bonus of $69,735 and the Company’s COO was paid a cash bonus of $27,500.  In the financial year ended August 31, 2009, the Board, at the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, paid no bonuses to any of the executive officers in light of the prevailing economic conditions and the Company’s desire to preserve capital.  

Option based awards (long term Compensation)

The Compensation Committee believes that it is important to award incentive stock options as part of an overall compensation package.  Encouraging its executive officers and employees to become shareholders of the Company is, in the committee’s view, the best way to align their interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.

Equity participation is accomplished through the Company’s stock option plan (the “Stock Option Plan”), which is designed to give each option holder an interest in preserving and maximizing shareholder value in the longer term, to enable the Company to attract and retain individuals with experience and ability, and to reward individuals for current performance and expected future performance.  Internal experience of the Compensation Committee and Board is used with respect to option levels and comparisons are made to similar companies at the same stage of development in the mining industry.

The Compensation Committee considers stock option grants when reviewing executive officer compensation packages as a whole.  Stock options granted to NEOs during the most recently completed financial year are disclosed below under the heading “Executive Compensation – Summary Compensation Table”.

Performance Graph

The following graph compares the year end investment value in the total cumulative shareholder return for $100 invested in Common Shares of the Company against the cumulative total return of the S&P/TSX Composite Index from August 31, 2005 until the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010.

	2005	2006	2007	2008	2009	2010
PTM	100	157	308	237	99	163
S&P/TSX	100	113	128	129	102	112

As can be seen from the foregoing graph, during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, the Company’s performance exceeded the performance of the S&P/TSX Composite Index.  In light of this trend, and in light of improving market conditions and demand for experienced senior executives, the compensation paid to the Company’s NEOs was increased in 2010.  The increase in the cumulative total shareholder return for the Company’s shareholders has exceeded the increase in the compensation of the Company’s NEOs over this three year period.

From August 31, 2005 to August 31, 2010, the share price of the Company has increased by approximately 63%, compared to an increase in the S&P/TSX Composite Index of approximately 12% during the corresponding period.

Option-Based Awards

The Company’s Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of stock options to directors, executive officers and key employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries for the purpose of advancing the interests of the Company and its shareholders through the motivation, attraction and retention of these individuals.  It is generally recognized that stock option plans aid in attracting, retaining and encouraging these individuals due to the opportunity offered to them to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company.

- 10 -

The Compensation Committee determines the ranges of stock option grants for each level of executive officer, the key employees to whom it recommends that grants be made, and the terms and conditions of the options forming part of such grants, and makes recommendations to the Board accordingly.  Individual grants are determined by an assessment of an individual’s current and expected future performance, level of responsibilities and the importance of the position and contribution to the Company.  The existing number and terms of the outstanding options are taken into account when granting new options.  The exercise price, which can be no less than the market price (as defined in the TSX Company Manual), the term, up to a maximum of 10 years, and vesting provisions, if any, will be determined by the directors of the Company.

The number of stock options which may be issued under the Stock Option Plan in the aggregate and in respect of any fiscal year is limited under the terms of the Stock Option Plan and cannot be increased without shareholder approval.  Details of the Company’s Stock Option Plan are provided below under “Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans”. There was no repricing of stock options under the Stock Option Plan or otherwise during the most recently completed financial year.

NOTES:

(1)

Financial year ended August 31st.

(2)

Amount is based on the grant date fair value of the award for a financial year using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the various assumptions related to expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected life and expected dividend yield.  Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected price volatility.  Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimated, and therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options.  Notwithstanding the theoretical value of these options, many of them had not yet vested to the NEO as at August 31, 2010 and/or also had a nil ‘in-the-money-value’ on August 31, 2010.  Please see the table under “Incentive Plan Awards” for the in-the money value of these options on August 31, 2010.

These fees were paid to Mr. Jones pursuant to a consulting services agreement dated August 1, 2006 for management and administrative services.  Prior to August 1, 2006, Mr. Jones was paid for such services pursuant to a management services agreement dated April 1, 2005.  See “Termination of Employment, Change in Responsibilities and Employment Contracts” below.

Disclose the text of the board’s written mandate.  If the board does not have a written mandate, describe how the board delineates its role and responsibilities.

The board assumes responsibility for stewardship of the Company, including overseeing all of the operation of the business, supervising management and setting milestones for the Company.  The board reviews the statements of responsibilities for the Company including, but not limited to, the code of ethics and expectations for business conduct. The board approves all significant decisions that affect the Company and its subsidiaries and sets specific milestones towards which management directs their efforts. The strategic planning process is carried out at each board meeting where there are regularly reviewed specific milestones for the Company.  The corporate milestones are incorporated into senior management’s bonus scheme where performance bonuses are matched to the corporate objectives and milestones.  The board reviews the strategic plan at each meeting, usually at least once quarterly. The strategic planning process incorporates identifying the main risks to the Company’s objectives and ensuring that mitigation plans are in place to manage and minimize these risks.  In addition to the typical currency, commodity, mining exploration and development risks, the board has identified additional risk with respect to the granting of final mining authorizations on the Company’s properties in South Africa.  To mitigate these risks, the Company is working closely with its Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act, 2003 partner and government in South Africa, the Company’s senior management is in frequent dialogue with the representatives of the Department of Mineral Resource.  This dialogue has been initiated long in advance of the permissions and authorization expiration dates and in advance of the dates required for the Company’s strategic plan.  The board is updated regularly as to the status of these discussions. The board appoints senior management.  As the Company has grown it has seen that management has also grown, mitigating risk with respect to succession planning.  At this time two executives are in place with sufficient experience to assume the CEO role in the case of the loss of the CEO.  The Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing and reporting to the board on management’s succession plans. The board as a whole, given its small size, is involved in developing the Company’s approach to corporate governance; however, the board has established a Governance and Nomination Committee to review and make recommendations on matters including, but not limited to: corporate governance in general; size and composition of the board in the short and long-term; CEO succession planning; and policies and procedures for directors to carry out their duties with due diligence and in compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements. The board approves all of the Company’s major communications, including annual and quarterly reports and press releases with specific review of financial disclosure by the Audit Committee.  In accordance with the Company’s Timely Disclosure, Confidentiality and Insider Trading Policy, three (3) corporate spokespersons have been formally designated.  The communication policy of the Company is to circulate all press releases to technical staff and all responsible people involved in press release material.  This policy ensures that shareholders receive information not only from the senior management point of view but from the viewpoint of the project staff.  Shareholder feedback, when significant, is also communicated directly back to the board. The board and the Audit Committee examine the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control processes and information systems.  The board, and the Audit Committee, consults with the auditor with respect to these systems.  The Company also initiated a process in 2005 to establish compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley regulations in the United States.  In general, transactions over a CDN$100,000 limit or involving mineral properties require the board’s approval. Budgets document approval and a Board approved capital expenditure procedure has been established for project construction. Project budgets are brought before the board on a regular basis.  The board’s direction with respect to these budgets is communicated back to project staff. The number of scheduled board meetings varies with circumstances but a minimum of 3 meetings are held annually.  In addition, special meetings are called as necessary.  The Chairman establishes the agenda at each board meeting and submits a draft to each director for their review and recommendation for items for inclusion on the agenda and each director has the ability to raise subjects that are not on the agenda at any board meeting.  Meeting agendas and other materials to be reviewed and/or discussed for action by the board are distributed to directors in time for review prior to each meeting. Board members have full and free access to senior management and employees of the Company.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the Company focuses on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company for the three and twelve months ended August 31, 2010 and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended August 31, 2010 together with the notes thereto.

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”). All dollar figures included therein and in the following discussion and analysis are quoted in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

1. Description of business

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. is a British Columbia corporation incorporated on February 18, 2002 by an order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving an amalgamation between Platinum Group Metals Ltd. and New Millennium Metals Corporation. 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 the Republic of South Africa and Ontario, Canada. The Company completed a definitive Feasibility Study in July 2008 and an Updated Feasibility Study in October 2009 with respect to Project 1 of what was then the Western Bushveld Joint Venture (“WBJV”) in the Republic of South Africa. Included in each Study is a declaration of reserves at the time of publication.

On September 2, 2008, the Company announced an agreement in principle to consolidate and rationalize the ownership of the WBJV (the “WBJV Restructuring”). On December 9, 2008, the Company announced the execution of definitive agreements formalizing the earlier announcement. On April 22, 2010 the WBJV Restructuring was completed. The Company now holds its interests in Projects 1 and 3 through its shareholding of project operating company Maseve Investments 11 (Pty) Limited (“Maseve”). See further details below.

The Company defers all acquisition, exploration and development costs related to mineral properties. The recoverability of these amounts is dependent 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.

2. Discussion of operations and financial condition

a)	Results of Operations
	For the Three Months Ended August 31, 2010
	For the three months ended August 31, 2010, the Company incurred a net loss of $4.14mil (2009 – $1.7mil) or $0.04 per share basic and diluted (2009 – $0.02). The Company earned interest revenue of $9,352 (2009 - $41,315) on cash held in bank accounts. Total expenses for the quarter were $1.9 million (2009 - $2.0 million) as the Company continues to focus on the exploration and development of its mineral interests and corporate development initiatives. General and administrative expenses totaled $1.9 million (2009 - $1.3 million). Professional fees during the quarter amounted to $782,401 (2009 - $355,875) including legal fees, accounting advisory fees and audit and review fees. All of these costs are higher than in the comparative period as the Company had been conducting negotiations, due diligence and drafting of agreements related to strategic options and the acquisitio n of surface rights. Management and consulting fees during the quarter were $209,014 (2009 - $343,096). Salaries

and benefits expensed in the three months totalled $557,592 (2009 - $330,738). Shareholder relations expenses were $25,566 (2009 - $13,126) and travel expenses amounted to $86,914 (2009 - $87,323). For the Twelve Months Ended August 31, 2010 Any reference to “period” hereafter refers to the 12 months ended August 31, 2010.

At August 31, 2010 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2.37 million as compared to $32.97 million on August 31, 2009. The decrease in cash during the year was due primarily to an equalization payment made to Anglo Platinum Limited (“Anglo Platinum” or “Anglo”) on April 22, 2010 in the amount of $24.83 million. Accounts receivable at period end totaled $1.27 million (2009 - $344,538) being comprised mainly of an amount receivable on sale of equipment of $652,864 and value added taxes refundable in South Africa of $444,736 and in Canada of $126,803. Accounts payable at year end totaled $1.40 million (2009 - $861,041). Of this amount approximately $230,000 was payable against legal costs, $204,500 was due for advisory and consulting expenses, $187,000 was payable for accounting and tax consulting, and approximately $325,000 was payable for ongoing exploration expenses - much of which will be recoverable from joint venture partner Japan Oil, Gas and Minerals National Corporation (“JOGMEC”).

At August 31, 2010 the Company owed $443,614 to WBJV empowerment partner Wesizwe Platinum Limited (“Wesizwe”) for past expenditures on Project 2 of the WBJV, net of amounts due to/from Wesizwe for expenditures and items related to Projects 1 and 3. At August 31, 2010 the Company held amounts due to JOGMEC for advances against planned work on North Limb joint ventures in the amount of $423,456 (2009 – nil).

During the year the Company had income of $26.66 million (2009 – ($6.96 million) net loss) due primarily to the deemed sale for accounting purposes of the Company’s 18.5% interest in Project 2 of the WBJV to Wesizwe on April 22, 2010 for a gain of $45.62 million. The Company has accrued a future income tax expense related to the deemed sale of $14.58 million. The accrual for future income tax expense is a non-cash item. The Company has determined that this transaction qualified for relief from current taxes payable in accordance with Section 42 of the South African Income Tax Act 58 of 1962. The Company also realized a gain of $2.80 million (2009 – nil) on the sale of marketable securities during the period.

Before a non-cash charge for stock based compensation of $137,600 (2009 - $2.10 million), and not including net interest earned of $442,142 (2009 - $139,548), general and administrative expenses totaled $7.65 million (2009 - $5.33 million). The increase in general and administrative expenses over the comparative period is explained for in part by a foreign exchange loss of $1.01 million (2009 -$322,833 gain) and professional fees of $1.99 million (2009 - $1.08 million). Professional fees include $1.38 million for legal fees, $394,212 for accounting advisory fees and $215,563 for audit and review fees. All of these costs are higher than in the comparative period as the Company had been conducting negotiations, due diligence and drafting of agreements related to strategic options. Management and consulting fees of $1.30 million (2009 - $1.11 million) were higher in the cu rrent year due to $306,154 in additional director and senior management fees. The amount of salaries and benefits expensed in the year was slightly higher at $1.89 million (2009 - $1.62 million). Offsetting some of these increased costs were decreased shareholder relations expenses of $166,116 (2009 - $299,397) and lower travel expenses of $416,670 (2009 - $568,413).

Apart from the realized gains described above and net interest of $442,142 (2009 - $139,548) earned on cash deposits during the year, the Company had no other significant revenues. In June 2009 the Company closed a brokered offering for net cash proceeds of $32.16 million. Proceeds of the June 2009 offering were primarily used to pay Anglo Platinum an equalization amount on April 22, 2010 of $24.83 million, for project expenditures and general working capital. In October 2010 the Company raised gross proceeds of $143.81 million on the issue of 70.15 million shares on a bought deal basis (the “Offering”). See item 6. “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. The net proceeds received by the Company from the Offering were approximately $135.6 million.

During the year ended August 31, 2010 the Company incurred exploration, engineering and development costs for the Company’s account of $935,407 for Projects 1 and 3 (2009 - $1.24 million). Total WBJV expenditures during the period by all WBJV partners amounted to $2.38 million (2009 - $2.35 million). After April 22, 2010 the WBJV was dissolved and expenditures related to Projects 1 and 3 were conducted by the Company’s 54.75% owned operating subsidiary Maseve. See further details below.

Total global exploration expenditures by the Company during the year, excluding the WBJV, totaled $2.23 million (2009 - $1.07 million). Expenditures in South Africa amounted to $1.99 million (2009 -$930,479) and in Canada to $238,758 (2009 - $136,462). From the amounts incurred in South Africa, cost recoveries in the amount of $1.94 million (2009 -$835,144) were received from JOGMEC, leaving net global expenditures by the Company during the year of $1.22 million (2009 - $1.47 million) which included the Company’s WBJV expenditures.

On April 22, 2010 the Company paid an equalization amount due to Anglo of R 186.28 million (approx. $24.83 million) as required under the terms of the original 2004 agreement amongst the parties to the WBJV (the “WBJV Agreement”). On the same date the Company then completed a transaction originally announced September 2, 2008 with Anglo and Wesizwe whereby the WBJV was dissolved. At the same moment Wesizwe acquired all of Anglo’s rights and interests to the mineral rights underlying the WBJV, retained Anglo’s mineral rights to Project 2, and then transferred all the mineral rights underlying Projects 1 and 3 into project operating company Maseve. The Company also transferred its interests in the mineral rights underlying Project 1 into Maseve, the result being that Wesizwe retained 100% of Project 2 and that Maseve obtained 100% of Projects 1 and 3. In exchange for the rescission of its 18.5% of Project 2 within the WBJV the Company effectively received a 17.75% interest in Maseve. The Company also received a 37% interest in Maseve in exchange for its share of Projects 1 and 3, bringing its holdings in Maseve to 54.75%. Wesizwe received a 45.25% initial interest in Maseve. The Company has a right to acquire a further 19.25% interest in Maseve for subscriptions (the “Maseve Subscription Right”) in the amount of R 408.8 million (approx. $58.50 million as of November 26, 2010), thereby allowing the Company to increase its shareholding in Maseve to 74%. The subscription funds paid into Maseve by the Company will be held in escrow to be applied towards Wesizwe’s capital requirements for Projects 1 and 3. The cash subscriptions into Maseve are due by January 17, 2011 or the Company will lose the right to increase its interest to 74%. The Company intends to exercise the Maseve Subscription Right by January 17, 2011.

Under Canadian GAAP the rescission of the Company’s 18.5% interest in Project 2 was accounted for as an arm’s length sale transaction at fair market value on April 22, 2010. The transfer of the Company’s 37% interest in Projects 1 and 3 was accounted for as a continuity of interests and was transferred into Maseve at book cost.

Activities for Projects 1 and 3 during the period included research and data review, prospecting, mapping, detailed engineering, drilling of project areas, geophysical studies, geotechnical work, metallurgical studies and mine plan and scheduling work. The Company has paid the South African power utility Company (ESKOM) deposits against their work to design infrastructure for the delivery of construction power and commercial production power to the property.

An Updated Feasibility Study and revised resource estimation for the Project 1 area of the WBJV was announced October 8, 2009 entitled“Technical Report (Updated Feasibility Study) Western Bushveld Joint Venture Project 1 (Elandsfontein and Frischgewaagd)”and was filed by the Company on www.sedar.com on November 25, 2009. Results of the Updated Feasibility Study estimated 275,000 ounces of 4E (platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold) per year steady state and show a 23.54% Internal Rate of Return (pre-tax) Base Case, using 3 year trailing metal prices to September 2009, calculated on the monthly averages including US$1,343 per ounce for platinum. The Updated Feasibility Study model includes an escalation factor for construction costs, but does not include escalation due to inflation of operating costs or metal prices.

Details of the Company’s Revised Attributable Reserves and Resources from the Updated Feasibility Study are shown below at Item 2d. “Exploration Programs and Expenditures”.

The Company maintains three projects in South Africa on the North Limb of the Bushveld Complex; Tweespalk, Waterberg and War Springs. The Tweespalk property is currently being reviewed. During 2008 the Company conducted soil and geological surveys on the War Springs project. On March 17, 2008 the Company published a revised and updated resource calculation for the War Springs project based on drilling and exploration work conducted in the previous three years. (See Item 2d. “Exploration Programs and Expenditures” below).

On March 5, 2009 the Company announced an agreement with JOGMEC, an incorporated administrative institution of the Government of Japan, whereby they may earn up to a 35% interest in the Company’s rights to the War Springs project for an optional work commitment of US$10 million over 5 years. The first and second year JOGMEC option commitments of US$1.5 million have been completed with approximately 12,397 metres drilled to March 31, 2010. Total expenditures incurred by JOGMEC to August 31, 2010 amounted to approximately $2.18 million. Further work programs for War Springs to be funded by JOGMEC in 2010 have been approved and are currently being planned.

In October 2009 the Company entered an agreement with JOGMEC and empowerment company Mnombo Wethu Consultants CC (“Mnombo”) whereby JOGMEC may earn up to a 37% interest in the Waterberg project for an optional work commitment of US$3.2 million over 4 years, while at the same time in exchange for matching JOGMEC’s expenditures on a 26/74 basis, Mnombo may earn a 26% interest in the project. If required the Company has agreed to loan Mnombo their first $87,838 in project funding and the Company and JOGMEC may assist Mnombo to acquire commercial loans to fund their ongoing requirements, or may choose to allow Mnombo to defer those costs against their share of future proceeds from the project. Total expenditures incurred by JOGMEC to August 31, 2010 amounted to approximately $555,252. An amount of $237,040 was due to JOGMEC at year end. Exploration work consisted of geophysical surveys, ground mapping and compilation of existing data as well as drilling. Further work has been approved by JOGMEC.

Project funding provided by JOGMEC is treated as a reduction in costs reported by the Company.

The Company conducted work programs on its Canadian projects during the years ended August 31, 2008 and 2009 and in the period ended August 31, 2010. A 1,125 metre drill program was completed on the Company’s Lac Des Iles project in the first quarter of 2008 and a further 978 metres was completed in February of 2009. In the year ended August 31, 2010 the Company incurred $238,758 in geophysical and other ground based work in the Thunder Bay area. The Company maintains a large mineral rights position in the Lac des Iles area north of Thunder Bay as a strategic holding against potentially increasing prices for palladium and platinum. Encouraging exploration results for palladium, platinum, nickel and copper continue to be returned and the Company plans to invest further in this area in the future.

The following tables set forth selected financial data from the Company’s annual audited financial statements and should be read in conjunction with those financial statements:

	Year ended	Year ended	Year ended
	Aug 31, 2010	Aug 31, 2009	Aug. 31, 2008
Interest income	$442,142 (1)	$139,548	$243,339
Net Income (Loss)	$26,660,174 (2)	($6,963,384)	($5,086,589)
Basic Earnings (Loss) per Share	$0.29 (3)	($0.10)	($0.08)
Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share	$0.28 (3)	($0.10)	($0.08)
Total Assets	$126,991,003 (4)	$67,070,797	$32,492,583
Long Term Debt	Nil	Nil	Nil
Dividends	Nil	Nil	Nil

Explanatory Notes:

(1) The Company’s only significant source of revenue during the years ending August 31, 2008 to 2010 was interest revenue from interest bearing accounts held by the Company. The amount of interest earned correlates directly to the interest rate at the time and the amount of cash on hand during the year referenced.

(2) During the year ended August 31, 2010 the Company had net income of $26.66 million. The current year’s income arises from a gain of $2.80 million from selling marketable securities and $45.62 million on the deemed sale for accounting purposes of an 18.5% interest in Project 2 of what was the WBJV. There is also an $14.58 million future income tax associated with this gain. The Company’s net loss during the year ending August 31, 2009 was higher than in 2008 due to several factors. Compensation expense totalled $1.89 million in 2010 and $1.62 million in 2009 as opposed to $1.35 million in 2008. Another factor is the stock compensation expense which totalled $137,600 in 2010 and $2.1 million in 2009 as opposed to $580,128 in 2008. If one removes the effect of these factors from each fiscal year the recorded annual loss is $5.15 million in 2010; $3.25 million for 2009, a nd $3.16 million for 2008. The remaining general and administrative costs are higher in 2010 than in 2009 and 2008 except for travel expenses and shareholder relations. The Company also had a $1.34 million increase in foreign exchange loss when comparing 2010 to 2009 and a $360,173 increase in foreign exchange gains when comparing 2009 to 2008. The Company had a foreign exchange loss of $37,340 in 2008 to a $322,833 gain in 2009, and then back to $1,013,115 loss in 2010.

(3) Basic earnings (loss) per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The Company uses the treasury stock method for the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Diluted per share amounts reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares. In periods when a loss is incurred, the effect of potential issuances of shares under options and share purchase warrants would be anti-dilutive, and accordingly basic and diluted loss per share are the same.

(4) Total assets had been increasing year-on-year primarily as a result of the Company’s cash balance and continued investment in mineral properties funded by completion of private placement equity financings. At August 31, 2010 the Company held $2.37 million (2009 - $32.97 million; 2008 - $1.78 million) in cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash balance at August 31, 2010 was much lower than 2009 but similar to 2008 as it did not complete any equity financings during 2008 and 2010.

The following table sets forth selected quarterly financial information for each of the last eight quarters.

Quarter Ending	Interest &	Net Gain	Net Basic (Loss)
	Other Income(1)	(Loss) (2)	Earnings per Share
August 31, 2010	$9,352	($4,140,280)	($0.04)
May 31, 2010	$220,145	$31,183,948	$0.33
February 28, 2010	$177,201	($975,747)	($0.01)
November 30, 2009	$35,444	$592,253	$0.01
August 31, 2009	$41,315	($1,718,457)	($0.02)
May 31, 2009	$73,959	($1,478,807)	($0.02)
February 28, 2009	$24,172	($1,665,682)	($0.03)
November 30, 2008	$102	($2,100,438)	($0.03)
Explanatory Notes:

(1) The Company’s primary source of revenue during the quarters listed above was interest revenue from interest bearing accounts held by the Company. The amount of interest revenue earned correlates directly to the amount of cash on hand during the period referenced.

(2) Net gains (losses) by quarter are often materially affected by the timing and recognition of large non-cash income, expenses or write-offs. Although there was not any in the quarter ended August 31, 2010 the quarter ended May 31, 2010 included a non-cash realized gain for the deemed sale for accounting purposes of the Company’s 18.5% interest in Project 2 of the WBJV at an estimated fair market value of $45.62 million and a future income tax expense accrual for $14.58 million. In the quarter ended February 28, 2010 there were no non-cash income, expenses or write-offs but for example, the quarter ended November 30, 2009 includes a non-cash charge for stock based compensation in the amount of $137,600, and a non-cash gain realized on marketable securities of $2.1 million. The quarter ended August 31, 2009 includes a non-cash charge for stock based compensation in the amount of $705,750, the quarter en ded May 31, 2009 includes a non-cash charge for stock based compensation in the amount of $219,535, the quarter ended February 28, 2009 includes a non-cash charge for stock based compensation in the amount of $373,042, the quarter ended November 30, 2008 includes a non-cash charge for stock based compensation in the amount of $802,409. After adjusting these non-cash charges, the results for the quarters listed show a more consistent trend, with a general growth in expenses over time that is consistent with the Company’s increased exploration and corporate activities over the past two years as described above at“Discussion of Operations and Financial Condition”.

The Company has not declared nor paid dividends on its common shares. The Company has no present intention of paying dividends on its common shares, as it anticipates that all available funds will be invested to finance the growth of its business.

b)	Trend Information
	Other than the financial obligations as set out in the table provided at Item 6. below, there are no demands or commitments that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, the Company’s liquidity either increasing or decreasing at present or in the foreseeable future. The Company will require additional capital in the future to meet both its contractual and non-contractual project related expenditures as set out in the table at Item 6. It is unlikely that the Company will generate sufficient operating cash flow to meet all of these expenditures in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Company will need to raise additional capital by issuance of securities or by a sale or partnering of project interests in order to meet its ongoing cash requirements. See discussions at item 2. a) “Results of Operations” above and at item 6. “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. The Company has compl eted a Feasibility Study for the Project 1 area of the WBJV. If a production decision is taken the Company will pursue both equity and debt financing for its share of the capital requirements for that project.
c)	Risk Factors
	The Company’s securities should be considered a highly speculative investment and investors should carefully consider all of the information disclosed in the Company’s Canadian and U.S. regulatory filings prior to making an investment in the Company. For a discussion of risk factors applicable to the Company, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent annual information form filed with Canadian provincial securities regulators, which was also filed as part of the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 40-F with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission. Without limiting the foregoing, the following risk factors should be given special consideration when evaluating an investment in the Company’s securities.
	General
	Resource exploration and development is a speculative business, characterized by a number of significant risks including, among other things, unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover  mineral deposits but also from finding mineral deposits, which, though present, are insufficient in quantity and/or quality to return a profit from production.
	Additional  funding may be required
	The Company may not have sufficient cash resources on hand to meet all of the Company’s future financial requirements relating to the exploration, development and operation of the Company’s projects.  The Company may require additional financing from external sources, such as joint ventures, debt   financing or equity financing, in order to meet such requirements and carry out the future development  of the Company’s projects and external growth opportunities. The success and the pricing  of any such capital raising and/or debt financing will be dependent upon the prevailing market conditions at that time. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available to the Company or, if it is, that it will be offered on acceptable terms. If additional financing is raised through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities of the Company, this may have a depressive effect on the   price of the Company’s securities and the interests of shareholders in the net assets of the Company may be diluted. Any failure by the Company to obtain required financing on acceptable terms could cause the Company to delay development of its material projects and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Metal prices affect the success of the Company’s business

Metal prices have historically been subject to significant price fluctuations over the last two year period. No assurance may be given that metal prices will remain stable. Significant price fluctuations over short periods of time may be generated by numerous factors beyond the control of the Company, including domestic and international economic and political trends, expectations of inflation, currency exchange fluctuations, interest rates, global or regional consumption patterns, speculative activities and increases or decreases in production due to improved mining and production methods. Significant or continued reductions or volatility in metal prices may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, including the amount of the Company’s reserves, the economic attractiveness of the Company’s projects, the Company’s ability to obtain financing and develop projects and, if the Company’s projects en ter the production phase, the amount of the Company’s revenues or profit or loss.

The Company’s business is subject to exploration and development risks

With the exception of Project 1, all of the Company’s properties are in the exploration stage and no known reserves have been discovered on such properties. At this stage, favourable drilling results, estimates and studies are subject to a number of risks, including:

• the limited amount of drilling and testing completed to date; 

• the preliminary nature of any operating and capital cost estimates; 

• the difficulties inherent in scaling up operations and achieving expected metallurgical recoveries;

• the likelihood of cost estimates increasing in the future; 

• and the possibility of difficulties procuring needed supplies of electrical power and water.

There is no certainty that the expenditures to be made by the Company or by its joint venture partners in the exploration of the properties described herein will result in discoveries of precious metals in commercial quantities or that any of the Company’s properties will be developed. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of precious metals and no assurance can be given that any particular level of recovery of precious metals will in fact be realized or that any identified resource will ever qualify as a commercially mineable (or viable) resource which can be legally and economically exploited. The resource and reserve estimates contained herein have been determined and valued based on assumed future prices, cut-off grades and operating costs that may prove to be inaccurate. Estimates of reserves, mineral deposits and production costs can also be affected by such factors as environmental permit regulatio ns and requirements, weather, environmental factors, unforeseen technical difficulties, unusual or unexpected geological formations and work interruptions. In addition, the grade and/or quantity of precious metals ultimately recovered may differ from that indicated by drilling results. There can be no assurance that precious metals recovered in small-scale tests will be duplicated in large-scale tests under on-site conditions or in production scale. Extended declines in market prices for platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold may render portions of the Company’s mineralization uneconomic and result in reduced reported mineralization. Any material reductions in estimates of mineralization, or of the Company’s ability to extract this mineralization, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. Amendments to the mine plans and production profiles may be required as the amount of resources changes or upon receipt of further information during t he implementation phase of the project.

The Company requires various permits in order to conduct its current and anticipated future operations, and delays or a failure to obtain such permits, or a failure to comply with the terms of any such permits that the Company has obtained, could have a material adverse impact on the Company The Company’s current and anticipated future operations, including further exploration, development activities and commencement of production on the Company’s properties, require permits from various South African national, provincial, territorial and local governmental authorities. In particular, the Company must obtain a mining right for Project 1 and an Environmental Impact Assessment must be completed. Although it is probable that the Company will be granted a mining right, there can be no absolute assurance that all licenses and permits which the Company requires for the construction of mining facilities and the conduct of mining operations will be obtainable on reasonable terms, or at all. Delays or a failure to obtain such licenses and permits, or a failure to comply with the terms of any such licenses and permits that the Company has obtained, could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

The Company is subject to the risk of fluctuations in the relative values of the Canadian Dollar as compared to the South African Rand and the United States Dollar The Company may be adversely affected by foreign currency fluctuations. The Company is primarily funded through equity investments into the Company denominated in Canadian Dollars. In the normal course of business the Company enters into transactions for the purchase of supplies and services denominated in South African Rand. The Company also has cash and certain liabilities denominated in South African Rand. Several of the Company’s options to acquire properties or surface rights in the Republic of South Africa may result in payments by the Company denominated in South African Rand or in U.S. Dollars. Exploration, development and administrative costs to be funded by the Compa ny in South Africa will also be denominated in South African Rand. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the Canadian Dollar and the South African Rand or U.S. Dollar may have an adverse or positive affect on the Company.

Not all of the Surface Rights for Project 1 have been purchased

The Company has purchased or acquired a right to purchase approximately 2,655 hectares (6,560 acres) of contiguous surface rights over the area where all of the proposed infrastructure will be located as designed in the Updated Feasibility Study. The Company owns approximately 942 hectares outright and has paid a 10% deposit of R13.0 million (approx. $1.85 million) on the purchase of approximately 1,713 hectares, including significant surface facilities. The 100%-owned areas comprising approximately 942 hectares do not all overlay the Company’s mineral rights and do not overlay the main area where the proposed infrastructure will be located and they have not been tested for geotechnical suitability. Amendments to the mine plan, capital and operating cost estimates that would be required to relocate the mine infrastructure to these properties have not been undertaken. An allowance for the cost of purchasing surface right s was included in the Updated Feasibility Study. The failure to complete the purchase of the 1,713 hectare property described above will likely increase the costs of developing Project 1 and it may prevent or delay the development of Project 1.

The mineral exploration industry is extremely competitive

The resource industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases, and the Company competes with many companies that possess greater financial resources and technical facilities. Competition could adversely affect the Company’s ability to acquire suitable new producing properties or prospects for exploration in the future. Competition could also affect the Company’s ability to raise financing to fund the exploration and development of its properties or to hire qualified personnel.

South African foreign exchange controls may limit repatriation of profits

Loan capital or equity capital may be introduced into South Africa through a formal system of exchange control. Proceeds from the sale of assets in South Africa owned by a non-resident are remittable to the non-resident. Approved loan capital is generally remittable to a non-resident company from business profits. Dividends declared by a non-listed South African company are remittable to non-resident shareholders. However, there can be no assurance that restrictions on repatriation of earnings from the Republic of South Africa will not be imposed in the future.

Judgments based upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws may be difficult to enforce The ability of investors to enforce judgments of United States courts based upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws against the Company and its directors and officers may be limited due to the fact that a majority of these persons reside outside of the United States and, in respect of the Company’s directors and officers, their assets are located outside the United States. There is uncertainty as to whether Canadian courts would: (i) enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against the Company or its directors and officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws, or (ii) entertain original actions brought in Canad ian courts against the Company or such persons predicated upon the federal securities laws of the United States, as such laws may conflict with Canadian laws. In Canada, civil rights are within the legislative jurisdiction of the Provinces and Territories. The Province of British Columbia, in which the Company and all of its directors and officers are resident, does not have laws for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments of United States courts.

The Company is subject to significant governmental regulation

The Company’s operations and exploration and development activities in South Africa and Canada are subject to extensive federal, state, provincial, territorial and local laws and regulation governing various matters, including:

• environmental protection; management and use of toxic substances and explosives;

• management of natural resources;

• exploration, development of mines, production and post-closure reclamation; exports; price controls;

• taxation;

• regulations concerning business dealings with local communities;

• labour standards and occupational health and safety, including mine safety; 

• and historic and cultural preservation.

Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in civil or criminal fines or penalties or enforcement actions, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities enjoining or curtailing operations or requiring corrective measures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions, any of which could result in the Company incurring significant expenditures. The Company may also be required to compensate private parties suffering loss or damage by reason of a breach of such laws, regulations or permitting requirements. It is also possible that future laws and regulations, or a more stringent enforcement of current laws and regulations by governmental authorities, could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions on or suspensions of the Company’s operations and delays in the development of the Company’s properties.

The Company’s operations are subject to environmental laws and regulation that may increase the Company’s costs of doing business and restrict its operations Environmental legislation on a global basis is evolving in a manner that will ensure stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessment of proposed development and a higher level of responsibility for companies and their officers, directors and employees. There can be no assurance that future changes to environmental legislation in Canada or South Africa will not adversely affect the Company’s operations. Environmental hazards may exist on the Company’s properties which are unknown at present and which have been caused by previous or existing owners or operators. Furthermore, future compliance with environmental reclamation, closure and other requirements may involve significant costs and other liabilities. In particular, the Company’s operations and exploration activities are subject to Canadian and South African national and provincial laws and regulations governing protection of the environment. Such laws are continually changing and, in general, are becoming more restrictive.

Amendments to current laws, regulations and permits governing operations and activities of mining companies, or more stringent implementation thereof, could have a material adverse impact on the Company and cause increases in capital expenditures or production costs or reduction in levels of production at producing properties or require abandonment or delays in development of new mining properties.

The Company has not made any material expenditure for environmental compliance to date. However, there can be no assurance that environmental laws will not give rise to significant financial obligations in the future and such obligations could have a material adverse affect on the Company’s financial performance.

Mining is inherently dangerous and subject to conditions or events beyond the Company’s control, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business In the course of exploration, development and production of mineral properties, certain risks, and in particular, unexpected or unusual geological operating conditions including rock bursts, cave-ins, fire, flooding and earthquakes may occur. It is not always possible to fully insure against such risks as a result of high premiums or other reasons. Should such liabilities arise, they could reduce or eliminate any future profitability and result in increasing costs and a decline in the value of the Company’s securities. The Company has limited experience with development-stage mi ning operations Although there are personnel within the Company who have experience with development stage mining operations, the Company’s ability to place projects into production will be dependent upon using the services of both mining contractors and additional appropriately experienced personnel or entering into agreements with other major resource companies that can provide such expertise. There can be no assurance that the Company will have available the necessary expertise when and if the Company places its mineral properties into production.

The Company has a history of losses and it anticipates continuing to incur losses for the foreseeable future The Company has a history of losses including net losses of $6,963,384 in the year ended August 31, 2009; $5,086,589 in the year ended August 31, 2008; and $6,758,123 in the year ended August 31, 2007. At August 31, 2009 the Company had an accumulated deficit of $34,218,900 while at August 31, 2008, the accumulated deficit was $27,255,516 and at August 31, 2007 the accumulated deficit was $22,168,927. The Company anticipates continued losses for the foreseeable future until it can successfully place one or more of its properties into commercial production on a profitable basis.

The Company has a lack of cash flow, which may affect its ability to continue as a going concern. It is an exploration and development company with a history of losses and no history of revenues from its operations. None of the Company’s properties are currently in production, and although the Updated Feasibility Study indicates a positive economic model for Project 1, there is no certainty that the Company will succeed in placing that project into production in the near future, if at all. During the year ended August 31, 2009 the Company had a loss of $6,963,384. During the year ended August 31, 2008, the Company had a loss of $5,086,589 and for 2007 a loss of $6,758,123. The Company used $5,418,738 in cash for operating activities in 2009 and used $4,547,428 for that purpose in 2008 and $3,682,561 in 2007. The Company used $3,128,914 for investing activities in 2009, $8,574,127 in 2008 and $5,771,234 in 2007. Historically, the only source of funds available to the Company has been through the sale of its equity securities and minor cost recoveries.

The Company’s continuing operations and the recoverability of the amounts capitalized for mineral properties in its consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP, 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 the Company’s 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 Company’s operations; however, there is no assurance that sufficient funds will be raised.

Most of the Company’s properties contain no known reserves

Project 1 contains mineral reserves. The remaining properties are in the exploration stage meaning that the Company has not determined whether such properties contain mineral reserves that are economically recoverable. Failure to discover economically recoverable reserves on a mineral property will require it to write-off the costs capitalized for that property in its Canadian GAAP financial statements. At August 31, 2009 deferred acquisition, exploration and development costs related to all of the Company’s mineral property interests outside of the WBC Project totalled $6,057,034 (2008 -$5,806,510 and 2007 - $5,375,656).

The Company depends on its key management employees

The Company’s development to date has depended, and in the future will continue to depend, on the efforts of its key management figures: R. Michael Jones, the Company’s President, CEO and director; Frank R. Hallam, the Company’s CFO and director; and Peter Busse, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer. The loss of any of the Company’s key management figures could have a material adverse effect on it. The Company has entered into contracts with the named directors, officers and employees. It does not maintain key man insurance on any of its management.

The Company’s directors may be associated with other mineral resource companies

Certain of the Company’s officers and directors may become associated with other natural resource companies that acquire interests in mineral properties. R. Michael Jones, the Company’s President, CEO and director is also a director of West Kirkland Mining Inc. (“WKM”), a public company with mineral exploration properties in Ontario and Nevada, a director of MAG Silver Corp. (“MAG Silver”), a public company with silver properties in Mexico, and a director of Nextraction Energy Corporation (“Nextraction”), a public company with oil properties in Kentucky and Wyoming. Frank Hallam, the Company’s CFO and director, is also a director of MAG Silver, a director of WKM, a director of Lake Shore Gold Corp, and a director of Nextraction. Eric Carlson, a director of the Company, is also a director of MAG Silver, WKM and Nextraction. Barry Smee, a director of the Company, is also a director of Almaden Resources Ltd., a company with projects in Mexico, the USA and Canada. Any conflicts which may arise will be dealt with as disclosed below.

Such associations may give rise to conflicts of interest from time to time. The Company’s directors are required by law to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company and to disclose any interest, which they may have in any project or opportunity of the Company. If a subject involving a conflict of interest arises at a meeting of the board of directors, any director in a conflict will disclose his interest and abstain from voting on such matter. In determining whether or not the Company will participate in any project or opportunity, the directors will primarily consider the degree of risk to which the Company may be exposed and the Company’s financial position at that time.

The Company’s share price has been volatile in recent years

In recent years, the securities markets in the United States and Canada have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of many companies, particularly those considered exploration or development stage companies, have experienced wide fluctuations in price which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. In particular, the per share price of the Common Shares on the TSX fluctuated from a high of Cdn$2.92 to a low of Cdn$1.31 and on the NYSE-A from a high of US$2.89 to a low of US$1.11 within the twelve month period preceding the date of this Prospectus. There can be no assurance that continual fluctuations in price will not occur.

The Company does not expect to pay dividends

The Company has not paid any dividends since incorporation and it has no plans to pay dividends for some time. The Company’s directors will determine if and when dividends should be declared and paid in the future based on the Company’s financial position at the relevant time. All of the Common Shares are entitled to an equal share of any dividends declared and paid.

The Company’s prospecting rights are subject to title risks

The Company’s prospecting rights may be subject to prior unregistered agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects. The Company holds its interest in Project 1 and Project 3 through its holdings of Maseve, which company in turn holds 100% of the prospecting rights comprising Project 1 and Project 3. Although duly approved and issued, these prospecting rights are still in process of final title registration by the Government of the Republic of South Africa. These or other defects could adversely affect the Company’s title to such properties or delay or increase the cost of the development of such prospecting rights.

Any disputes or disagreements with the Company’s joint venture partners could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business

PTM RSA is a party to a shareholders agreement with Africa Wide and Maseve related to the exploration and development of Project 1 and Project 3 (the “Maseve Shareholders Agreement”). Certain members of the management and boards of directors of Maseve are nominated by Wesizwe. Although the Company has majority control of Maseve and its board of directors, there is no assurance that the strategic direction of the WBC Project will always be consistent with the Company’s objectives. Any change in the management or strategic direction of Wesizwe or one or more of the Company’s other joint venture partners could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations. Additionally, if a dispute arises betwee n the Company and a joint venture partner which cannot be resolved amicably, the Company may be unable to move its projects forward and may be involved in lengthy and costly proceedings to resolve the dispute, which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations.

Socio-economic instability in South Africa or regionally may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and profits The Company has ownership interests in significant projects in South Africa. As a result, it is subject to political and economic risks relating to South Africa, which could affect an investment in the Company. South Africa was transformed into a democracy in 1994. The government policies aimed at redressing the disadvantages suffered by the majority of citizens under previous governments may impact the Company’s South African business. In addition to political issues, South Africa faces many challenges in overcoming substantial differences in levels of economic development among its people. While South Africa features highly developed and sophisticated business sectors and infrastructure at the core of its eco nomy, large parts of the population do not have access to adequate education, health care, housing and other services, including water and electricity.

The Company is subject to a number of South African statutes aimed at promoting the accelerated integration of historically disadvantaged South Africans, including the MPRDA, the Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act, 2003 (the “BEE Act”) and the Broad-Based Socio-Economic Empowerment Charter for the South African Mining Industry (the “Charter”). To ensure that the socio-economic strategies are implemented, the BEE Act provided for Codes of Good Practice (the “Codes”) issued by the South African Minister of Trade and Industry which specify empowerment targets consistent with the objectives of the BEE Act. The scorecard of the Mining Charter requires the mining industry’s commitment of applicants in respect of ownership, management, employment equity, human resource development, procurement and beneficiation. The Charter also set out targets and criteria for broad-based black economic empowerment.

The Company cannot predict the future political, social and economic direction of South Africa or the manner in which government will attempt to address the country’s inequalities. It is also difficult to predict the impact of addressing these inequalities on the Company’s business. Furthermore, there has been regional, political and economic instability in countries north of South Africa. Such factors may have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to own, operate and manage its South African mining projects.

The Company’s land in South Africa could be subject to land restitution claims which could impose significant costs and burdens The Company’s privately held land could be subject to land restitution claims under the South African Restitution of Land Rights Act 1994 (the “Land Claims Act”). Under the Land Claims Act, any person who was dispossessed of rights in land in South Africa as a result of past racially discriminatory laws or practices without payment of just and equitable compensation is granted certain remedies, including the restoration of the land against payment of the owner of compensation by the state. Under the Land Claims Act, persons entitled to institute a land claim were required to lodge their claims by December 31, 1998. The Company has not been notified of any land claims, but any claims of which it is notified in the future could have a material adverse effect on its right to the properties to which the claims relate and, as a result, on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

The South African Restitution of Land Rights Amendment Act 2004 (the “Amendment Act”), became law on February 4, 2004. Under the Land Claims Act, the South African Minister for Agriculture and Land Affairs (the “Land Minister”), may not acquire ownership of land for restitution purposes without a court order unless an agreement has been reached between the affected parties. The Amendment Act, however, entitles the Land Minister to acquire ownership of land by way of expropriation either for claimants who do not qualify for restitution, or, in respect of land as to which no claim has been lodged but the acquisition of which is directly related to or affected by a claim, the acquisition of which would promote restitution to those entitled or would encourage alternative relief to those not entitled. Expropriation would be subject to provisions of legislation and the South African Constitution which provides, in general, for just and equitable compensation. There is, however, no guarantee that any of the Company’s privately held land rights could not become subject to acquisition by the state without the Company’s agreement, or that the Company would be adequately compensated for the loss of its land rights, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s South African projects and therefore an adverse effect on its business and financial condition.

Any adverse decision in respect of the Company’s mineral rights and projects in South Africa under the MPRDA could materially affect the Company’s projects in South Africa With the enactment of the MPRDA, the South African state became the sole regulator of all prospecting and mining operations in South Africa. All prospecting and mining licences and claims granted in terms of any prior legislation became known as the “old order rights”. All prospecting and mining rights granted in terms of the MPRDA are “new order rights”. All old order prospecting rights had to be lodged for conversion by May 1, 2006 and all old order mining rights had to be lodged for conversion by May 1, 2009. Provided a compliant conversion application was lodged before the cut off date, the old order prospecting or mining right will remain valid pending the conversion. The treatment of these conversions, new applications and pending applications is uncertain and any adverse decision by the relevant regulatory authorities under the new legislation may adversely affect title to the Company’s mineral rights in South Africa which could stop, materially delay or restrict the Company from proceeding with its exploration activities or any future development activities or mining operations.

A wide range of factors and principles must be taken into account by the South African Minister of Mineral Resources when considering applications for conversion of old order rights or applications for new order rights. These factors include the applicant’s access to financial resources and appropriate technical ability to conduct the proposed prospecting or mining operations, the environmental impact of the operation and, in the case of prospecting rights, considerations relating to fair competition. Other factors include considerations relevant to promoting employment and the social and economic welfare of all South Africans and showing compliance with the provisions regarding the empowerment of historically disadvantaged persons in the mining industry. The MPRDA also provides that a mining right granted under it may be cancelled if the mineral to which such mining right relates is not mined at an optimal rate. All of the Company’s old order prospecting permits in respect of Project 1 and Project 3 have now been converted into new order prospecting rights.

If the Company does not comply with the MPRDA, the Company may be materially delayed or restricted from proceeding with its exploration activities, with the development of future mines and with potential mining operations.

The introduction of South African State royalties where all of the Company’s current mineral reserves are located could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and its financial condition The Mineral and Petroleum Resources Royalty Act (the “MPRRA”) came into operation on May 1, 2009. The MPRRA provides for a minimum royalty rate of 0.5% and a maximum rate of 7% for unrefined product, and the royalty will be a tax deductible expense. The feasibility studies covering the Company’s South African projects made certain assumptions related to the expected royalty rates under the MPRRA. If and when the Company begins earning revenue from its South African mining projects, and if the royalties under the MPRRA differ from those assumed in the feasibility studies, this new royalty could have a material and adverse impact on the economic viability of the Company’s projects in South Africa, as well as on the Company’s prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

There can be no assurance that an active market for the Common Shares will be sustained

Securities of mining companies have experienced substantial volatility in the past, and especially during the last couple of years, often based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved. These factors include macroeconomic developments in North America and globally, and market perceptions of the attractiveness of particular industries. The price of the securities of the Company is also likely to be significantly affected by short-term changes in commodity prices, other precious metal prices or other mineral prices, currency exchange fluctuations, financial condition or results of operations as reflected in its quarterly earnings reports. Other factors unrelated to the performance of the Company that may have an effect on the price of the securities of the Company include the following: the extent of analytical coverage available to investors concerning the business of the Company ma y be limited if investment banks with research capabilities do not follow the Company’s securities; lessening in trading volume and general market interest in the Company’s securities may affect an investor’s ability to trade significant numbers of securities of the Company; the size of the Company’s public float may limit the ability of some institutions to invest in the Company’s securities; and a substantial decline in the price of the securities of the Company that persists for a significant period of time could cause the Company’s securities to be delisted from an exchange, further reducing market liquidity. If an active market for the securities of the Company does not continue, the liquidity of an investor’s investment may be limited and the price of the securities of the Company may decline. As a result of any of these factors, the market price of the securities of the Company at any given point in time may not accurately reflect the long-term value of the Company. Securities class-action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. The Company may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and damages and divert management’s attention and resources.

There will be dilution from further equity financings

In order to finance future operations, the Company may raise funds through the issuance of Common Shares or the issuance of debt instruments or other securities convertible into Common Shares. The Company cannot predict the size of future issuances of Common Shares or the size and terms of future issuances of debt instruments or other securities convertible into Common Shares or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of the Company’s securities will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Any transaction involving the issuance of previously authorized but unissued shares, or securities convertible into Common Shares, would result in dilution, possibly substantial, to present and prospective security holders.

Management will have discretion concerning the use of cash resources as well as the timing of expenditures.

As a result, an investor will be relying on the judgment of management for the application of the cash resources of the Company. Management may use cash in ways that an investor may not consider desirable. The results and the effectiveness of the application of cash resources are uncertain. If cash resources are not applied effectively, the Company’s results of operations may suffer.

In April 2007 Africa Wide accepted an offer for the purchase of 100% of their company from Wesizwe. The transaction closed in September 2007 and Wesizwe paid consideration of 57.4 million new shares of Wesizwe at a deemed price of Rand 10.48 per share for total consideration of Rand 601.5 million (approx. $90 million). Since September 2007 Wesizwe has become responsible for all of the rights and obligations of Africa Wide.

The Company published a Feasibility Study for Project 1 of the WBJV in July 2008 and later an Updated Feasibility Study in October 2009. Based on the WBJV resource estimate contained in the July 2008 Feasibility Study, and under the terms of the WBJV Agreement, each party was allocated an equalization amount due or payable based upon their contribution of measured, indicated, and inferred ounces of combined platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold (“4E”) from the contributed properties comprising the WBJV. Inferred ounces were credited at US$0.50 per ounce, indicated ounces at US$3.20 per ounce and measured ounces at US$6.20 per ounce. Ounces contributed to the WBJV by Anglo in 2007 from a 50% interest in Portion 11 of the Farm Frischgewaagd 96 JQ, a property in Project 2, received an equalization credit of US$0.62 per inferred ounce, US$10.37 per indicated ounce and US$39.55 per measured ounce. On April 22, 2010 the Company paid its equalization amount due to Anglo in the amount of $24.83 million (R 186.28 million).

On September 2, 2008, the Company announced an agreement in principle to consolidate and rationalize the ownership of the WBJV. On December 9, 2008, the Company announced the execution of definitive agreements formalizing the earlier announcement. On April 22, 2010 the WBJV Restructuring was completed. RPM transferred all of its 37% interests in the WBJV and its prospecting rights in Projects 1, 2 and 3 to Wesizwe in exchange for common shares representing approximately a 26.5% interest in Wesizwe. Wesizwe simultaneously then transferred all of its interests in the WBJV and the mineral rights related to Projects 1 and 3 into Maseve. The Company simultaneously rescinded its 18.5% interest in Project 2 of the WBJV and transferred its participation interest in the WBJV and its prospecting rights underlying Project 1 into Maseve.

Pursuant to the WBJV Restructuring, 100% of the prospecting rights to Project 1 and Project 3 are now held by Maseve and the original WBJV ceased to exist. Platinum Group acquired a 54.75% interest in Maseve and the right to subscribe for an additional 19.25% of Maseve for R 408.8 million (approx. $58.50 million as of November 26, 2010) before January 17, 2011. Assuming that Platinum Group fully exercises its Maseve Subscription Right, the subscription funds will be held in escrow by Maseve to be applied towards Wesizwe’s capital requirements for Project 1 and Project 3 and the Company’s interest in Maseve will be increased to 74%, with Wesizwe, through its subsidiary, Africa Wide, holding the remaining 26% interest. By completion of the WBJV Restructuring, the Company’s and Anglo’s interests in Project 2 were effectively contributed to Wesizwe, who now holds 100% of Project 2. Should the Company not exer cise the full Maseve Subscription Right, the Company’s interests in Project 1 and Project 3 will only be increased proportionally to the amount subscribed.

Pursuant to the terms of the WBJV Agreement and the WBJV Restructuring, the Company agreed to reimburse Wesizwe for past exploration costs, not including overhead costs, related to Project 2. Based on information provided by Wesizwe, the Company has accrued an amount due to Wesizwe of R9.72 million (approx. $1.41 million as at November 22, 2010) against amounts due to the Company from Wesizwe for its share of costs related to the WBJV.

Apart from the funds required to exercise the Maseve Subscription Right and the past exploration costs for Project 2 due to Wesizwe, there are no other amounts or payments due by the Company as a result of the WBJV Restructuring.

At April 22, 2010 the Company had a total investment in its 37% share of the WBJV of approximately $43.4 million. Of this amount costs associated specifically to Project 2 totaled $23.0 million. The cost attributable to Project 2 is relatively high because of the higher equalization costs associated with Portion 11 of the farm Frischgewaagd, as described above. The estimated fair market value of the Company’s disposed 18.5% interest in Project 2 was estimated at $65.42 million at April 22, 2010. The Company recorded a gain on the disposition in the amount of $45.62 million.

Post the WBJV Restructuring the Company carries total deferred costs related to Projects 1 and 3 of $109.59 million at August 31, 2010 while the balance carried for the previous investment in the WBJV has been reduced to zero.

Project 1 and Project 3 Mineral Resources and Reserves - (MR- Merensky Reef; UG2- Upper Group 2 Reef) The Company provided a statement of reserves for Project 1 in the Updated Feasibility Study and an updated statement of resources for Project 1 in a NI 43-101 technical report (the “Project 1 Report”) in October 2009. An updated NI 43-101 technical report was published for Project 3 in October 2010 (the “Project 3 Report”). Summary resource and reserve details follow in the table below. The table contains summary details from the Updated Feasibility Study and the Project 1 Report in respect of Project 1, and summary resource details from the Project 3 Report. Assuming the Company fully exercises the Maseve Subscription Right, the Company will acquire a 74% interest in the 4E ounces attributable to Project 1 and Project 3. The prill splits and 4E estimates for Project 1 and Project 3 have been tested for reasonableness by kriging on the individual elements. Copper and nickel as well as the minor platinum group elements have also been estimated with a statistical process of simple kriging for Project 1.

Current spot prices of 4E in aggregate are higher than the base case long term metal prices as set out in the Updated Feasibility Study, but are within the range (in aggregate, including exchange rates for the Merensky Reef pricing) of the sensitivity analysis contained in the Updated Feasibility Study.

The following is a statement of attributable reserves and resources for Project 1 and Project 3. Additional information regarding the resource calculation can be found in the Reports. Reserves presented below are a sub set of measured and indicated resources included in the Updated Feasibility Study and take into account mining factors and are not in addition to the resources. The 4E cut off in the tables below are 300 cm.g/t for Project 1 and 100 cm.g/t for Project 3 (“cm.g/t”refers to the grade at the stipulated resource cut width (in centimetres)).

The Company uses certain terms in this document, such as “measured,”“indicated,” and “inferred,”“reserves,” and “resources,” that the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit U.S. registered companies from including in their filings with the SEC. “Resources” are not “Reserves” and so do not have demonstrated economic viability. U.S. investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in the Company’s U.S. regulatory filings, File No. 0 033562, which may be secured from the Company, or from the SEC’s website at: http://sec.gov.

Updated Feasibility Study – October 2009

The Updated Feasibility Study recommends a series of five simultaneous declines accessing the deposit with a mining rate of 156,000 tonnes per month, which provides 13 years of steady state tonnage production. First ore is reached by development 13 months from the commencement of underground work. Mining is only scheduled on the reserves. Resources in the Project 1 area and lower grade UG2 resources also provide some future opportunities. The mining and development plan includes conventional hand held drilling utilizing electrical drills and scraper winch cleaning similar to the successful conventional mining at the adjacent mines. Declines and primary access to the deposit is designed for development with mechanized equipment. Ore is initially to be hauled out of the mine with mechanized equipment and assisted then by conveyor from year 4 of mine life to end of mine life.

The Merensky Reef will be mined at widths between 93cm and 176cm at an average of 115cm and the UG2 Reef will be mined at widths between 105cm and 205cm at an average of 153cm. At the recommended mining rate and modifying factors the mine plan generates approximately 234,000 – 300,000 4E oz in concentrate per year. During 9 years of peak production, approximately 275,000 4E oz are produced from the Merensky Reef horizon. The mine has a 22 year planned mine life. The Qualified Persons who authored the Updated Feasibility Study have recommended that the mine plan be reviewed based upon the changes to the mineral resources. This work is being carried out as part of project implementation.

Infrastructure and Metal Recovery

The Updated Feasibility Study design for metallurgical extraction utilizes a standard plant design similar to other nearby plants in the Bushveld complex operating on the same reefs. The plant is designed with circuits that can process Merensky Reef, UG2 Reef or a blended feed. The Merensky Reef is the target of initial mining because of its higher grade and low chrome content. The concentrator has been designed and re-costed, based on treating the optimal 140,000 tonnes per month. The revised mine plan has increased this treatment rate to 160,000 tonnes per month and for the concentrator to treat this increased quantity of reef, the recovery has been reduced with a discount of up to 2.5% for treatment in excess of nominal “name plate” capacity.

Metallurgical testing and the published experience of the adjacent operating mines support a “name plate” capacity plant recovery rate estimate of 87.5% of platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold on the Merensky Reef and 82.5% on the UG2 Reef. Recoveries of 45% for nickel and 70% for copper are also modeled for the Merensky Reef. Ruthenium and Iridium are also included as minor contributors. No additional metallurgical test work has been undertaken during the Updated Feasibility Study.

The mine infrastructure in the estimates includes the entire required surface infrastructure for a standalone mine including water, power, underground access and ventilation to establish full production.

Smelter Terms

The Updated Feasibility Study includes capital and operating estimates to produce concentrate but no capital is included for smelting or refining of this concentrate. The costs associated with smelting and refining of concentrate is modeled as a deduction from revenue arising from the sale of concentrate to others. While the terms of agreements governing the sale of such concentrates within the South African PGM industry are all confidential, the relevant Qualified Person for the Updated Feasibility Study believes deductions used in the Updated Feasibility Study financial model are indicative of deductions current in this industry. The party to whom concentrate will be sold and the terms of this potential sale are yet to be determined. Anglo Platinum has a 60 day right of first refusal to purchase all of the ore or concentrate produced by Projects 1 and 3 on commercial terms. Estimated deductions in the Updated Feasibility Study include penalties and shipment charges and total approximately 15% from gross concentrate sales revenue. Should Anglo Platinum decide to purchase the concentrate produced by the Project 1 mine the structure of such purchase would be governed by the pro-forma off-take agreement included in the WBJV Agreement, however the commercial terms will be subject to negotiation. Approaches will now be made to Anglo Platinum and other parties in an attempt to secure an off-take agreement and the terms thereof based on the Updated Feasibility Study production profile. Financial Details The results of the Updated Feasibility Study show a strong Internal Rate of Return “IRR” (pretax) for the Base Case of 23.54%. The Base Case is modeled using 3 year trailing metal prices including US$1,343 per ounce platinum, an exchange rate of 8 Rand to the US Dollar and a 10% discount rate. Using metal prices to September 2009, including US$1,295 per ounce platinum, the IRR for the project (pre-tax) is 15.63%. The model does not include escalation due to inflation of costs or metal prices.

Average life-of-mine cash operating costs to produce concentrate is now estimated at R525 per tonne (approx. US$65.63) of ore or R4,208 (approx. US$526) per 4E ounce on a life of mine basis. Operating costs and underground development costs have increased from those in the July 2008 Feasibility Study as a result primarily of mining related cost including labour increases. The Merensky Reef layer represents the first 15 years of production and the Merensky basket price per 4E ounce is modeled at US$1,185 (3 year trailing prices) and US$1,025 (recent prices). The UG2 layer represents the balance of the production. The UG2 basket price per 4E ounce is modeled at US$1,433 (3 year trailing prices) and US$1,068 (recent prices). The model includes a subsequent average 15.16% discount from the metal price to estimate the smelter pay discount.

The project has an estimated life of 22 years with 9 years at a steady state of production of 234,000 to 300,000 ounces per year. The capital cost for the mine and concentrator complex are R3.55 billion or US$443.13 million for peak funding and R4.76 billion or US$595.04 million for life of mine funding. The life of mine capital cost estimate has been reduced from that in the July 2008 Feasibility Study by US$89 million as a result of change in design to use mostly grid power rather than self generated power and improvements in mine design.

In October 2010 the Company raised gross proceeds of $143.81 million on the issue of 70.15 million shares on a bought deal basis. See item 6. “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. The net proceeds received by the Company from the Offering were approximately $135.6 million (determined after deducting the Underwriters’ Fee of $7.91 million and estimated expenses of the Offering of $300,000).

The Updated Feasibility Study estimates the total capital cost to build the Project Platinum Mine at US$443 million (at 8.0 Rand to the USD). The net proceeds of the Offering will allow the Company to initiate development, but further financing will be required to complete the project, likely from a combination of debt financing and the issuance of additional equity.

The Company intends to use approximately $58.5 million of the net proceeds of the Offering as a payment to Maseve to exercise the Maseve Subscription Right, increasing the Company’s interest in Project 1 and Project 3 to 74%. Of the remaining net proceeds of the Offering, approximately $74 million will be applied against the Company’s 74% share of an initial $100 million development programme for Project 1 and $10 million will be reserved for general working capital purposes. The Company may apply other cash on hand or proceeds from future warrant exercises against an expanded work programme for Project 1.

The initial development programme for Project 1 will include finalizing the purchase of surface rights and facilities for an amount of approximately $16.73 million. The remainder will be applied for the commencement of surface and earth works, including pads, lay down areas, a box cut, decline access and limited level development. Such work will also include detailed implementation preparations to be made by the Company including working with the key potential contractors and the potential suppliers of water and power. The Company must also complete additional engineering work and consider potential changes in capital costs, power availability and project implementation schedules due to changes in the mining market, metals prices and other factors since the effective date of the Updated Feasibility Study.

The Company has generally found an improvement of the availability of contractors and equipment, with a corresponding lowering of costs. Currently, the general outline of project implementation, costs and timing is believed by management of the Company to be appropriate but with an approximate delay to the project start of 10 to 12 months from the dates in the Updated Feasibility Study due to the delay in completing the WBJV Restructuring and the resulting delay in project funding.

Although the Company intends to use the funds from the Offering as set forth above, the actual allocation of the net proceeds may vary from those set out above, depending on future developments in the Company’s mineral properties or unforeseen events.

Northern Limb, Bushveld - War Springs and Tweespalk Properties

On June 3, 2002, the Company acquired an option to earn a 100% interest in the 2,396 hectare War Springs property and the 2,177 hectare Tweespalk property both located in the Northern Limb or Platreef area of the Bushveld Complex north of Johannesburg. The Company now holds New Order prospecting permits on 100% of this territory. Acquisition and exploration costs on these properties net of recoveries to August 31, 2010 total $3.41 million (2009 - $3.37 million). The Company can settle the vendors’ residual interests in these mineral rights at any time for US$690 per hectare. The Company pays annual prospecting fees to the vendors of US$3.25 per hectare. The vendors retain a 1% NSR Royalty on the properties, subject to the Company’s right to purchase the NSR at any time for US$1.4 million.

Black Economic Empowerment groups Africa Wide, a subsidiary of Wesizwe, and Taung Minerals (Pty) Ltd., a subsidiary of Platmin Limited, have each acquired a 15% interest in the Company’s rights to the War Springs project carried to bankable feasibility. The Company retains a net 70% project interest. Africa Wide also has a 30% participating interest in the Tweespalk property.

On March 5, 2009 the Company announced an agreement with JOGMEC, an incorporated administrative institution of the Government of Japan, whereby they may earn up to a 35% interest in the Company’s rights to the War Springs project for an optional work commitment of US$10 million over 5 years. The first and second year JOGMEC option commitment of US$1.5 million has been completed with approximately 12,397 metres drilled to March 31, 2010. Total expenditures incurred by JOGMEC to August 31, 2010 amounted to approximately $2.18 million. Further work programs for the War Springs project in 2010 are currently underway.

In October 2009 the Company entered an agreement with JOGMEC and Mnombo whereby JOGMEC may earn up to a 37% interest in the Waterberg project for an optional work commitment of US$3.2 million over 4 years, while at the same time in exchange for matching JOGMEC’s expenditures on a 26/74 basis, Mnombo may earn a 26% interest in the project. If required the Company has agreed to loan Mnombo their first $87,838 in project funding and the Company and JOGMEC may assist Mnombo to acquire commercial loans to fund their ongoing requirements, or may choose to allow Mnombo to defer those costs against their share of future proceeds from the project. Total expenditures incurred by JOGMEC to August 31, 2010 amounted to approximately $555,252.

At August 31, 2010 the Company recorded an amount of $423,456 due to JOGMEC against cash advances for exploration work due to be completed on War Springs and Waterberg in calendar 2010.

On March 17, 2008 the Company published a revised and updated resource calculation for the War Springs property based on drilling and exploration work conducted in the prior three years. Details are as follows:

The War Springs Mineral Resource is characterised by two distinct reef layers, termed the “B” and “C” reefs. Both reefs are typically greater than 6 metres 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. Eighteen holes had been completed by the end of May 2005, relating to 7,433 metres of drilling. A total of 8,188 samples were collected for the determination of elements Platinum, Palladium, Gold, Copper and Nickel. Four additional boreholes were drilled (1,646m) during the period November 2005 to early February 2006, on high priority soil targets (Phase 2 Drilling Program). An additional 1,738 samples were collected for analysis. 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 reported in a NI 43-101 document, compiled by Minxcon (Pty) Ltd, dated March, 2008. Mr. Charles Muller of Minxcon is the Qualified Person for the War Springs resource estimate. Samples were analyzed under Platinum Group’s previously published protocols for the project including insertion of blanks, duplicates and certified reference materials in the assay stream once in every 24 or fewer samples. This is in addition to internal quality control measures undertaken by the contracted certified analytical facilities. Assays were completed by standard fire assay procedures with preparation at the Setpoint facility at Mokopane and final assays at Genalysis Laboratories Services Pty Ltd. in Perth Australia or Anglo Research Laboratories. Lac Des Iles Area Properties, Ontario On May 5, 2000, the Company entered into an option agreement to acquire a 50% interest in the Lac des Iles River property located near Thunder Bay, Ontario in exchange for cash payments ($43,500 paid in total) and the completion of exploration expenditures. On October 6, 2006, the Company and the property vendors entered into a termination and sale agreement whereby the option agreement was cancelled and the Company purchased an undivided 100% interest in the property subject only to an underlying 2.0% Net Smelter Return Royalty. In settlement the Company made a one-time payment to the vendors of $50,000 in lieu of past and future exploration expenditure commitments not incurred.

In April 2000, and later as amended in January 2005, the Company acquired an option to earn a 50% interest in the South Legris property located near Thunder Bay, Ontario in exchange for cash payments ($105,000 paid in total) and the completion of certain exploration expenditures. On October 13, 2006, the Company and the property vendors entered into a termination and sale agreement whereby the option agreement was cancelled and the Company purchased an undivided 100% interest in the property subject only to underlying 2.0% Net Smelter Return Royalties. In settlement the Company made a one-time payment of $50,000 in lieu of past and future exploration expenditure commitments not incurred.

The Company has conducted work programs on its Lac Des Iles projects during 2008, 2009 and 2010. A 1,125 metre drill program was completed on the projects in the first quarter of 2008 and a further 978 metres was completed in February of 2009. In the period ended August 31, 2010 the Company incurred $238,758 of costs for geophysical and other ground based work on the Lac des Iles project area. Encouraging exploration results for palladium, platinum, nickel and copper continue to be returned and the Company plans to invest further in the project. As palladium prices have improved significantly in 2010 these projects are currently being considered for greater levels of investment in 2011.

e)	Administration Expenses
		Company maintains a corporate office in Canada and both a corporate and field office in South
		General and administrative expenses for the year totaled $7.79 million (2009 - $7.43 million).
		increase in general and administrative expenses over the comparative year is explained for the
		part by a foreign exchange loss of $1.01 million compared to a foreign exchange gain of $322,833
		2009. Professional fees totalled $1.99 million for the year (2009 - $1.08 million). This amount includes

		All of these costs are higher than in the comparative period as the Company had been conducting
		due diligence and drafting of agreements related to strategic options. Management and
		fees of $1.30 million (2009 - $1.11 million) were higher in the current year due to $306,154
		additional director and senior management fees. The amount of salaries and benefits expensed in
		year was slightly higher at $1.89 million (2009 - $1.62 million). Offsetting some of these increased

During the year ended August 31, 2005, the Company entered into an office lease agreement with Anthem Works Ltd. (“Anthem”), a company with a common director (Eric Carlson). During the year ended August 31, 2010 the Company accrued or paid Anthem $86,879 under the office lease agreement (2009 -$86,849). The space occupied approximates one third of 6,050 square feet in a first tier building located in downtown Vancouver, British Columbia. The rental rate was negotiated on an “arm’s length basis”.

All of the above transactions are in the normal course of business and are measured at the exchange amount which is the consideration established and agreed to by the noted parties.

g)	Shareholder Relations’ Expenses
	Shareholder relations’ expense during the period totaled $166,116 (2009 - $299,397). The decrease from the prior year is due to more normalized expenditures for the period, whereas in the previous year the volatile economic circumstances required greater effort and spending in this cost area. The Company manages its shareholder relations as an internal function and the Company actively seeks to raise its profile with both retail and institutional investors. From June 2005 to present Mr. Tony Mahalski of LM Associates in London, U.K., has also been engaged for a fee of GBP 1,000 per month for the purpose of general business development and the raising of the Company’s profile in Europe.
h)	Travel and Promotion Expenses
	Travel expenses for the period amounted to $416,670 (2009 - $568,413). These activities relate to the supervision of ongoing operations in South Africa and Canada, new property investigations and meetings with potential and current institutional and sophisticated investors. Travel related to all of these activities was lower during the year than in the same period in 2009. Promotional expenses in the period amounted to $106,681 (2009 - $195,604) and these costs relate to design work, media relations, printed material, postage and trade show attendance and efforts were made to reduce such costs during the period.
i)	Property Acquisition and Capital Expenses
	Property acquisition expenditures paid in cash and capital costs during the year totaled $26.46 million (2009 - $20,044). These expenditures were incurred to acquire or maintain option rights to South African and Canadian mineral properties. The largest single cost was for an equalization payment paid to Anglo Platinum in the amount of $24.83 million. See further details above.
	The Company evaluates its property interests on an ongoing basis and intends to abandon properties that fail to remain prospective. Apart from the possible vendor buy-out of the War Springs and Tweespalk properties by the Company, there are no other required property acquisition payments due   to vendors under mineral property option agreements. At the time of writing the Company was incurring further property acquisition expenses, such as research and staking expenses, through its activities in Ontario, Canada and South Africa. During 2008 the Company purchased surface rights adjacent to the Project 1 deposit area measuring 216.27 hectares for Rand 8.0 million (approx. $1.09 million) and the Company also acquired surface rights directly over a portion of the Project 1 deposit area measuring 358.79 hectares for an amount of  Rand 15.07 million plus legal and interest charges of Rand 621,214 for a total of Rand 15.69 (approx. $2.14 million). The rights to these two properties are to the benefit of the Company alone and are distinct  from the 365.64 hectare Elandsfontein Farm described below.

On August 12, 2010 the Company acquired the option to purchase surface rights covering 1,713 hectares, including accommodation facilities and overlaying the area of the planned Project 1 Platinum Mine, for Rand 130.0 million (approx. $18.80 million at the time). A non-refundable deposit of Rand 13.0 million (approx. $1.88 million at the time) was paid to the Vendor on August 26, 2010 and will be set off against the final purchase amount. The purchase price balance of Rand 117.0 million (approx. $16.73 million on November 25, 2010) is subject to the grant of a mining authorization within one year of the deposit date. PTM may waive the condition precedent at any time. The Company can extend the option to purchase due date for a further year for a Rand 13.0 million payment against the purchase price.

     The rights to these three properties are to the benefit of the Company only and are distinct from the 365.64 hectare Elandsfontein Farm originally purchased in 2004 for the benefit of the WBJV. The Elandsfontein mineral titles were transferred to project operating company Maseve on April 22, 2010 while the surface rights, valued at half of the original acquisition cost, remain under title to the Company and a 45.25% credit of approximately $320,000 was applied to amounts due to/from Wesizwe in recognition of their attributable portion of the surface rights as at April 22, 2010. j) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any special purpose entities nor is it party to any arrangements that would be excluded from the balance sheet.

k)	Outlook
	At November 29, 2010 the Company’s cash position was approximately $144.0 million. The Company intends to spend approximately $58.5 million to exercise the Maseve Subscription Right before January 17, 2010, increasing the Company’s interest in Project 1 and Project 3 to 74%.
	The Company is commencing with the permitting and development of Project 1 and plans to commit approximately $74 million against the Company’s 74% share of an initial $100 million development programme. The Company may apply other cash on hand or proceeds from future warrant exercises against an expanded work programme for Project 1. The initial development programme for Project 1 will include finalizing the purchase of surface rights and facilities for an amount of approximately $16.73 million. The remainder of the initial budget will be applied for the commencement of surface and earth works, including pads, lay down areas, a box cut, decline access and limited level development.
	The October 2009 Updated Feasibility Study estimated a capital cost to build Project 1 of US $443.0 million at an exchange rate of 8.0 Rand to the USD. The Company will consider both equity and debt financing components to complete Project 1 generally in accordance with plans as set out in the Updated Feasibility Study. The Company is currently in discussions with major banking interests with regard to debt financing for Project 1. The Company hopes to have such arrangements in place during 2011.
	In 2011 the Company plans to continue working with joint venture partner funding to conduct exploration on the War Springs, Waterberg and Sable projects. In 2011 the Company intends to conduct further exploration work on its Canadian properties located near Thunder Bay, Ontario.

3. Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP 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. Management has identified mineral property acquisition and exploration deferred costs; provision for reclamation and closure; future income tax provision; stock based compensation; and recoverability of its interest in mineral properties as the main estimates for the following discussion. Please refer to Note 2 of the Company’s Audited consolidated financial statements for a description of all of the significant accounting policies.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (Exploration and Development Stage Company)                                                                                                                                                                         & nbsp;                                                                                                                                                                       P.42

Supplementary Information and MD&A for the year ended August 31, 2010

Under Canadian GAAP, the Company defers all costs relating to the acquisition and exploration of its mineral properties. Any revenues received from such properties are credited against the costs of the property. When commercial production commences on any of the Company’s properties, any previously capitalized costs would be charged to operations using a unit-of-production method. The Company reviews deferred exploration costs to assess their recoverability and when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property exceeds the estimated net recoverable amount, provision is made for impairment in value.

The existence of uncertainties during the exploration stage and the lack of definitive empirical evidence with respect to the feasibility of successful commercial development of any exploration property does create measurement uncertainty concerning the estimate of the amount of impairment to the value of any mineral property. The Company relies on its own or independent estimates of further geological prospects of a particular property and also considers the likely proceeds from a sale or assignment of the rights before determining whether or not impairment in value has occurred.

Reclamation and closure costs have been estimated based on the Company’s interpretation of current regulatory requirements, however changes in regulatory requirements and new information may result in revisions to estimates. The Company recognizes the fair value of liabilities for reclamation and closure costs in the period in which they are incurred. A corresponding increase to the carrying amount of the related assets is generally recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset.

The future income tax provision is based on the liability method. Future taxes arise from the recognition of the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted or substantively enacted tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of certain assets and liabilities. The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of those future income tax assets that it believes will, more likely than not, fail to be realized.

For its 2005 fiscal year, the Company adopted CICA Handbook Section 3870 – Stock-Based Compensation and other Stock-Based Payments, which requires the fair value method of accounting for stock options. Under this method, the Company is required to recognize a charge to the income statement based on an option-pricing model based on certain assumptions. In the year ended August 31, 2010 the Company granted no options. For the year ended August 31, 2009 the assumptions were as follows; no dividends were paid, a weighted average volatility of the Company’s share price of 77.97%, a weighted average annual risk free rate of 2.59% and an expected life of 3.21 years. The resulting weighted average option pricing resulted in an expense for stock options in the year ended August 31, 2009 of $2.52 million of which $2,100,736 was expensed while $417,371 was capitalized to deferred mineral property exploration costs. In the period ended August 31, 2010 no stock options were granted. Of the $164,895 in cost calculated for August 31, 2010 for options vested in the year, an amount of $137,600 was expensed while $27,295 was capitalized to deferred mineral property exploration costs, not including gross up FIT liability of $10,900.

4. Significant accounting policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are set out in Note 2 of its Financial Statements for the period ended August 31, 2010. There are several policies that are significant to the financial results of the Company.

Under Canadian GAAP, the Company defers all costs relating to the acquisition and exploration of its mineral properties. Any revenues received from such properties are credited against the costs of the property. When commercial production commences on any of the Company’s properties, any previously capitalized costs would be charged to operations over the life of the property using a unit-of-production method. The Company regularly reviews deferred exploration costs to assess their recoverability and when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property exceeds the estimated net recoverable amount, provision is made for impairment in value.

The existence of uncertainties during the exploration stage and the lack of definitive empirical evidence with respect to the feasibility of successful commercial development of any exploration property creates measurement uncertainty concerning the calculation of the amount of impairment to the value of any mineral property. The Company relies on its own or independent estimates of further geological prospects of a particular property and also considers the likely proceeds from a sale or assignment of the rights before determining whether or not impairment in value has occurred.

Future income taxes are calculated based on the liability method.

5. Recent accounting pronouncements

CICA Section 3064, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, replaces Section 3062, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and Section 3450, Research and Development Costs. In February 2008, the CICA issued the new pronouncement establishing revised standards for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of goodwill and intangible assets. The new standard also provides guidance for the treatment of preproduction and start up costs and requires that these costs be expensed as incurred. The new standard applies to annual and interim financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after October 1, 2008. Section 3064 was adopted September 1, 2009, and doing so has had no effect.

In July 2009, the CICA approved amendments to Section 3862, Financial Instruments – Disclosures. The amendments require additional fair value disclosure for financial instruments and liquidity risk disclosures. These amendments require a three-level hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making fair value assessments. The amendments to Section 3862 apply for financial statements relating to fiscal years ending after September 30, 2009. The Company is assessing the impact of these amendments on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2009, the CICA issued CICA Handbook Section 1582, Business Combinations, Section 1601, Consolidations, and Section 1602, Non-controlling Interests. These sections replace the former CICA Handbook Section 1581, Business Combinations and Section 1600, Consolidated Financial Statements and establish a new section for accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. CICA Handbook Section 1582 establishes standards for the accounting for a business combination, and states that all assets and liabilities of an acquired business will be recorded at fair value. Obligations for contingent considerations and contingencies will also be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date. The standard also states that acquisition related costs will be expensed as incurred and that restructuring charges will be expensed in the periods after the acquisition date. The section applies prospectively to business combinations for w hich the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2011. CICA Handbook Section 1601 establishes standards for the preparation of consolidated financial statements.

CICA Handbook Section 1602 establishes standards for accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary in the preparation of consolidated financial statements subsequent to a business combination.

CICA Handbook Section 1601 and Section 1602 apply to interim and annual consolidated financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Earlier adoption of these sections is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year.

All three sections must be adopted concurrently. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the sections.

CICA Handbook Section 1625, has been amended as a result of issuing Sections, 1582 1601 and 1602. These amendments are effective for the Company for its interim and annual financial statements beginning after January 3, 2011. The Company is assessing the impact of these changes on its consolidated financial statements.

Convergence with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). In February 2008, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board confirmed that publicly accountable enterprises will be required to adopt IFRS for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted. Accordingly, the conversion to IFRS will be applicable to the Company no later than the quarter ended November 30, 2011, with restatement of comparative information presented. The conversion to IFRS will impact the Company’s accounting policies, information technology and data systems, internal control over financial reporting, and disclosure controls and procedures. The transition may also impact business activities, such as foreign currency activities, certain contractual arrangements, capital requirements and compensation arrangements. Th e Company is currently evaluating the future impact of IFRS on its financial statements and will continue to invest in training and additional resources to ensure a timely conversion.

Company’s IFRS Transition Plan

The Company is currently preparing its IFRS disclosure and documenting its transition plan. The conversion to IFRS is being led by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer with expert assistance from PriceWaterhouseCoopers LLP. The members of the Company’s finance group will execute the conversion project in accordance with the following phases:

Phase 1: Review and Assessment

In this phase, management will conduct a detailed review of all relevant IFRS standards to identify differences with the Company’s current accounting policies and practices, give separate consideration of one-time accounting policy alternatives that must be addressed at the changeover date (IFRS 1 considerations), and address those accounting policy choices that will be applied on an ongoing basis in periods subsequent to the changeover to IFRS.

Management is currently in the ‘review and assessment’ stage and is evaluating the impact of IFRS on its financial statements and prioritizing those differences that could have a significant impact on our financial statements. Management expects to complete its review and assessment by the end of December 2010.

Phase 2: Implementation

In this phase, management will implement the changes to affected accounting policies and practices, business processes, systems and internal controls. The changes will be tested prior to the formal reporting requirements under IFRS to ensure all significant differences are properly addressed in time for the changeover.

This phase is scheduled to start in first quarter fiscal 2011, and will continue into calendar 2011, allowing management ample time to comply with reporting under IFRS in the first fiscal quarter of 2011 ended November 30, 2011.

Significant accounting impacts of conversion to IFRS

Management expects differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS to impact the Company’s accounting activities at varying degrees, some of which are dependent on policy-choice decisions available in the transition period. The Company’s main objective in the selection of IFRS policies and transition elections is to become IFRS compliant while ensuring it provides meaningful and transparent information to stakeholders. The audit committee of the Company will be kept informed of management’s decisions on accounting policy choices under IFRS, project status and significant IFRS developments.

The Company will complete its assessment of all the accounting policy differences that may arise on conversion to IFRS in early calendar 2011. The following is a summary of potential accounting policy differences that have been identified to date. The Company has not yet quantified the impact of these differences on its consolidated financial statements.

Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources

The Company is in the exploration and development stage and under Canadian GAAP currently capitalizes all costs related to the acquisition and exploration of its mining rights. Management regularly reviews the carrying value of mineral rights and deferred exploration costs for evidence of impairment, and when the carrying values are estimated to exceed their net recoverable amounts, a provision is made for the decline in value.

Under IFRS, specifically IFRS 6 “exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources,” exploration and evaluation assets shall continue to be measured at cost, but the Company will have to determine an accounting policy specifying which expenditures are to be recognised as exploration and evaluation assets, and then apply that policy consistently. This standard will not apply to expenditures incurred for investigating properties before the Company has the legal right to explore the property and such costs will be expensed. The standard will also not apply to expenditures incurred in the development stage of a property once technical and economic feasibility are demonstrable and such costs will be capitalized.

In addition, under IFRS 6 and under International Accounting Standard (IAS) 36, “Impairment of Assets,” the Company will be required to assess at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that the asset may be impaired. IFRS may also require the reversal of impairments if conditions that gave rise to those impairments no longer exist. Canadian GAAP prohibits reversal of impairment losses. It is expected therefore, that there will be increased volatility in impairment recognition due to increase in frequency of assessment and possibility of reversal of impairments.

Other impacts of conversion to IFRS: Information Technology and Data Systems, Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting, Disclosure Controls and Procedures, and Business Activities and Key Performance Measures

In addition to the impact of IFRS on accounting policies, management is also in the process of assessing the impact of IFRS adoption on the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures, information technology and data systems. As a preliminary assessment, the Company does not expect that the conversion to IFRS will have a significant impact on its accounting processes and internal controls (including information technology and data systems).

The conversion from Canadian GAAP to IFRS will require the implementation of a new set of accounting standards, and the internal controls over financial reporting will need to address the initial reporting of IFRS financial statements, including related note disclosures, as well as on-going financial reporting. As the review of the accounting policies is completed, appropriate changes to ensure the integrity of internal control over financial reporting will be made. For example, under IFRS 6 and IAS 36 (Impairment of Assets) discussed above, the Company will be required to assess at the end of each reporting period whether there is any indication that the asset may be impaired. Additional controls will need to be designed and implemented to ensure that the recorded balance is fairly stated at each reporting period. It is anticipated that such controls will include senior management oversight on the development of key assumptions and variables. The certifying officers plan to complete the design, and initially evaluate the effectiveness of these controls in early 2011 to prepare for certification under IFRS in the November 30, 2011 financial statements.

In the implementation phase of the IFRS conversion plan commencing in early 2011, the Company will be updating its disclosure controls and procedures to ensure they are appropriate for reporting under IFRS. The Company will also ensure that its key stakeholders are informed about the anticipated effects of the IFRS transition.

The Company does not expect the conversion to IFRS to have a significant impact on its risk management or other business activities. Currently, there are no matters that would be influenced by GAAP measures, such as debt covenants, capital requirements and compensation arrangements that would be impacted by the transition to IFRS.

A number of other differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS have been identified but their applicability and potential impact to the Company have not yet been assessed, including the accounting for income taxes, foreign currency transactions, stock-based compensation, financial instruments and disclosure requirements. These differences may have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. A more detailed review of the impact of IFRS on the Company’s consolidated financial statements is in progress and will be completed by early 2011.

Management will continue to monitor current IFRS developments as multiple changes are expected to come into effect as the Company transitions to IFRS.

6. Liquidity and capital resources

During the year the Company issued a total of 1,149,125 (2009 – 30,166,420) common shares for net cash proceeds of $1.15 million (2009 - $39.74 million). Cash proceeds are primarily spent on mineral property and surface right acquisitions, exploration and development as well as for general working capital purposes. The balance of cash outflows is made up of management and consulting fees and salaries, and other general and administrative expenses. The Company’s primary source of capital has been from the sale of equity. At August 31, 2010 the Company had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $2.37 million compared to $32.97 million at August 31, 2009.

The Company receives lump sum cash advances at various times as laid out in agreed budgets from its partners to cover the costs of joint venture projects.

The following table discloses the Company’s continual obligations for optional mineral property acquisition payments and contracted office and equipment lease obligations. Apart from a possible buy-out of the War Springs and Tweespalk projects, which optional acquisition payments are included in the following table, the Company has no other property acquisition payments due to vendors under mineral property option agreements. The Company has no long term debt or loan obligations.

Cash at August 31, 2010 is sufficient to fund the general operation costs of the Company for calendar 2010, but will be insufficient to cover all of the payments envisioned in the table above.

On October 1, 2010 the Company announced a bought deal financing for 61.0 million shares at a price of $2.05 per share for gross proceeds of $125.05 million. The underwriters received a commission of 5.5% of the gross proceeds of the Offering and were granted an over-allotment option for a further 15% of the shares issued under the Offering, also at $2.05 per share.

On November 3, 2010 the Company announced that a further 9.1 million shares were issued for gross proceeds of $18.76 million pursuant to the full exercise of the over-allotment option described above. The underwriters also received a commission of 5.5% of the gross proceeds from the over-allotment exercise.

The Company continues to discuss financing possibilities for the debt component of the Project 1 capital cost requirements with several large banks who have expressed interest to be involved. The October 2009 Updated Feasibility Study estimated a capital cost to build the Project 1 Platinum Mine at US $443 million on a 100% basis at a rate of 8 Rand to the US dollar.

7. Outstanding share data

The Company has an unlimited number of common shares authorized for issuance without par value. At August 31, 2010 there were 93,964,792 common shares outstanding, 5,000,500 incentive stock options outstanding at exercise prices of $1.40 to $4.40 and 12,537,150 common share purchase warrants outstanding all at a price of $1.75. At November 29, 2010 there were 168,641,692 common shares outstanding, 4,980,500 incentive stock options outstanding and 8,120,250 common share purchase warrants outstanding. Subsequent to August 31, 2010 a total of 4,416,900 common share purchase warrants were exercised at a price of $1.75. During the period ending August 31, 2010, the Company made no changes to the exercise price of outstanding options through cancellation and reissuance or otherwise.

8. Disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in filings made pursuant to both U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and Canadian Securities Administrators requirements are recorded, processed, summarized and reported in the manner specified by the relevant securities laws applicable to the Company. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the applicable securities legislation is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company operates in both Canada and the Republic of South Afri ca and work is ongoing to improve and modernize these controls and to ensure that they remain consistently applied in both jurisdictions. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure control procedures as of August 31, 2010 through inquiry, review, and testing, as well as by drawing upon their own relevant experience. The Company retained an independent third party specialist in 2009 to assist in the assessment of its disclosure control procedures. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as at August 31, 2010, the Company’s disclosure control procedures were effective. Management is also developing and implementing a plan to address disclosure controls and procedures on a forward looking basis as the Company continues to grow.

In recent years the Company has taken steps to improve segregation of duties and the authorization process through the addition of accounting personnel; reviewed and refined internal control processes; adopted and published new corporate governance policies; reviewed and improved general controls over information technology; and enhanced financial control over period close processes. During the period ended August 31, 2010 there were no significant changes with regard to internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, and evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as at each fiscal year end. Management has used the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as at August 31, 2010. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that as at August 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the material weakness noted below.

Management has concluded it did not maintain effective controls related to the accounting for the dissolution of the WBJV. Specifically, although the company’s controls are designed effectively, the Company’s controls did not operate effectively to identify the correct tax attributes arising on the transaction, resulting in the Company initially estimating that the tax basis of the WBJV was approximately equal to the carrying amount on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the third quarter ended May 31, 2010. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

The Company has performed further analysis and now estimates a taxable temporary difference arising from the restructuring of the WBJV and the deemed sale for accounting purposes of WBJV Project 2 to Wesizwe for an additional interest in Maseve. Going forward, the Company’s internal controls relating to non-routine transactions will, where the company believes necessary, include consultations with external experts to ensure that non-routine transactions are recorded and accounted for in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that the material weakness has been remediated, subject to testing in fiscal 2011 as part of the Company’s annual assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s evaluation of internal control over financial reporting has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, who have expressed their opinion in their report included with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements.

9. NYSE AMEX LLC corporate governance

The Company’s common shares are listed on the NYSE AMEX LLC (formerly the American Stock Exchange) (“NYSE-AMEX”). Section 110 of the NYSE-AMEX company guide permits NYSE-AMEX to consider the laws, customs and practices of foreign issuers in relaxing certain AMEX listing criteria, and to grant exemptions from NYSE-AMEX listing criteria based on these considerations. A company seeking relief under these provisions is required to provide written certification from independent local counsel that the non-complying practice is not prohibited by home country law. A description of the significant ways in which the Company’s governance practices differ from those followed by domestic companies pursuant to NYSE-AMEX standards is posted on the Company’s website at www.platinumgroupmetals.net and a copy of such description is available by written request made to the Company.

11. Subsequent events

Subsequent events of a non-material nature may be discussed elsewhere within this document. Details of specific subsequent events are as follows:

(a) Resource Update Project 3

On September 30, 2010 the Company announced an updated resource estimate for Project 3 of the WBJV. The new resource calculation estimates 1.938 million 4E ounces (platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold) in the indicated category and 21,000 4E ounces in the inferred category. Earlier resource calculations estimated a project total of 1.9 million inferred ounces.

(b) Bought Deal Financing

Independent Auditor’s Report

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF PLATINUM GROUP METALS LTD.

We have completed an integrated audit of Platinum Group Metals Ltd.’s 2010, 2009 and 2008 consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2010. Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.

Consolidated financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Platinum Group Metals Ltd. as of August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years ended August 31, 2010. 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 audit of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. A financial statement audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the three year period ended August 31, 2010 in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal control over financial reporting

We have also audited Platinum Group Metals Ltd.’s internal control over financial reporting as at August 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (Exploration and Development Stage Company)                                                                                                                                                                         & nbsp;                                                                                                                                                                       P.51

Independent Auditor’s Report

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on management’s statement referring to the corrective action taken subsequent to the year end.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. It was determined that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as at August 31, 2010, because of a material weakness identified in the period-end financial reporting control over appropriate documentation and analysis of non-routine transactions. The material weakness referred to above is described in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

We considered this material weakness in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the August 31, 2010 consolidated financial statements, and our opinion regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting does not affect our opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

In our opinion, the Company did not maintain, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as at August 31, 2010 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.

Management’s responsibility for the Financial Statements and Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management’s responsibility for the Financial Statements

The preparation and presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) and all financial information in the Annual Report are the responsibility of management and have been approved by the Board of Directors.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Financial statements, by nature are not precise since they include certain amounts based upon estimates and judgments. When alternative methods exist, management has chosen those it deems to be the most appropriate in the circumstances. The financial information presented elsewhere in the Annual Report is consistent with that in the consolidated financial statements.

Management, under the supervision of and the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, have a process in place to evaluate disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as required by Canadian and U.S. securities regulations. We, as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, will certify our annual filings with the CSA and SEC as required in Canada by Multilateral Instrument 52-109 and in the United States as required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities for financial reporting and is ultimately responsible for reviewing and approving the consolidated financial statements. The Board carries out this responsibility principally through its Audit Committee which is independent from management.

The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board of Directors and reviews the consolidated financial statements and MD&A; considers the report of the external auditors; assesses the adequacy of our internal controls, including management’s assessment described below; examines and approves the fees and expenses for the audit services; and recommends the independent auditors to the Board for the appointment by the shareholders. The independent auditors have full and free access to the Audit Committee and meet with it to discuss their audit work, our internal control over financial reporting and financial reporting matters. The Audit Committee reports its findings to the Board for consideration when approving the consolidated financial statements for issuance to the shareholders and management’s assessment of the internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.

Management has used the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as at August 31, 2010. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that as at August 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the accounting for the dissolution of the Western Bushvold joint venture (“WBJV”). Although the company’s controls are designed effectively, the Company’s controls did not operate effectively to identify the correct tax attributes arising on the transaction, resulting in the Company initially estimating that the tax basis of the WBJV was approximately equal to the carrying amount on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the third quarter ended May 31, 2010. Accordingly, management has determined that this cont rol deficiency constitutes a material weakness. The Company has performed further analysis and now estimates a taxable temporary difference arising from the restructuring of the WBJV and the deemed sale for accounting purposes of WBJV Project 2 to Wesizwe for an additional interest in Maseve. Going forward, the Company’s internal controls relating to non-routine transactions will, where the Company believes necessary, include consultations with external experts to ensure that non-routine transactions are recorded and accounted for in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that the material weakness has been remediated, subject to testing in fiscal 2011 as part of the Company’s annual assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO THE AUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended August 31, 2010

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

The Company is a British Columbia corporation incorporated on February 18, 2002 by an order of the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving an amalgamation between Platinum Group Metals Ltd. and New Millennium Metals Corporation (“New Millennium”). The Company is an exploration and development company conducting work on mineral properties it has staked or acquired by way of option agreements in Ontario, Canada and the Republic of South Africa.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”) and include the significant policies outlined below.

(a)	Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
	The financial statements of entities controlled by the Company through voting equity interest, referred to as subsidiaries, are consolidated. Variable interest entities (“VIEs”), which include, but are not limited to, special purpose entities, trusts, partnerships and other legal structures, as defined by the Accounting Standards Board in Accounting Guideline 15, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, are entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a “controlling financial interest” or there is not sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. VIEs are subject to consolidation by the primary beneficiary who will absorb the majority of the entities’ expected losses and/or residual returns. The Company does not have any VIEs.
	These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its principal wholly- owned subsidiaries, Platinum Group Metals (Barbados) Ltd. (PTM B’dos), Platinum Group Metals (RSA) (Pty) Ltd. (“PTM RSA”) (and in turn PTM RSA’s wholly-owned subsidiary Wesplats Holdings (Proprietary) Limited (“Wesplats”) and the 54.75% owned subsidiary Maseve Investments 11 (Pty) Ltd. (“Maseve”). PTM RSA holds mineral rights and conducts operations in the Republic of South Africa. Wesplats owns surface rights areas overlying and adjacent to mineral rights held by PTM RSA and on behalf of the Company. Maseve holds a 100% interest in Projects 1 and 3 of the former Western Bushveld Joint Venture (“WBJV”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
(b)	Short-term investments
	Short-term investments, when held, comprise guaranteed investment certificates with original maturities of more than 90 days and less than one year.
(c)	Mineral properties, surface rights, and deferred exploration and development costs
	Mineral properties consist of exploration and mining concessions, options, contracts and associated surface rights. Surface rights that have no associated mineral title and which are owned by the Company outright are shown separately. Acquisition and leasehold costs, exploration costs and surface rights are capitalized until   such time as the property is put into production or disposed of either through sale or abandonment. Development  expenditures incurred subsequent to the establishment of economic recoverability and upon receipt of project development approval from the Board of Directors are capitalized and included in the carrying  amount of the related property. If put into production, the costs of acquisition, exploration and development will be amortized over the life of the property based on estimated economic reserves. If a property  is abandoned, the property and deferred exploration costs are written off to operations.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (Exploration and Development Stage Company)                                                                                                                                                                         & nbsp;                                                                                                                                                                       P.58

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended August 31, 2010

	Management of the Company reviews and evaluates the carrying value of each mineral property and its mineral investments for impairment annually, or more often if indicators of impairment arise. Where estimates of future net cash flows are available and the total estimated future cash flows on an undiscounted basis are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and assets are written down to fair value. Where estimates of future net cash flows are not available, management assesses whether the carrying value can be recovered by considering alternative methods of determining recoverable amount. When it is determined that carrying value of a mineral property cannot be recovered it is written down to its estimated fair value.
(d)	Cash and cash equivalents
	Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term deposits, which are readily convertible to cash and have original maturities of 90 days or less.
(e)	Reclamation and closure costs
	The Company recognizes the estimated fair value of liabilities for asset retirement obligations including reclamation and closure costs in the period in which they are incurred. A corresponding increase to the carrying amount of the related asset is recorded and amortized over the life of the asset. The liability is adjusted for changes in estimate at each reporting period and is accreted over time to the estimated asset retirement obligation ultimately payable through charges to operations.
	The estimates are based on legal and regulatory requirements. It is possible that the Company’s estimates of its ultimate reclamation and closure liabilities could change as a result of changes in regulations, the extent of environmental remediation required, changes in technology and the means and cost of reclamation. Management of the Company has determined that there are no significant reclamation liabilities as at period end.
(f)	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.
(g)	Basic Earnings (loss) per common share earnings (loss) per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The Company uses the treasury stock method for the calculation of diluted earnings per share. Diluted per share amounts reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares. In periods when a loss is incurred, the effect of potential issuances of shares under options and share purchase warrants would be anti-dilutive, and  accordingly basic and diluted loss per share are the same.
(h)	Fixed assets
	Fixed assets are recorded at cost and are amortized at the following annual rates:

Computer equipment and software	30% declining balance
Office furniture and equipment	20% declining balance
Vehicles	30% declining balance
Leasehold improvements	2 years straight line

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended August 31, 2010

(i)	Measurement uncertainty
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian 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 expenditures during the reporting period. Significant items where management’s judgement is applied include the assessment of impairment of long-lived assets, amortization, income tax provisions, contingent liabilities, and stock-based compensation, asset retirement obligations and fair value estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(j)	Translation of foreign currencies
	These consolidated financial statements are expressed in Canadian dollars. For integrated foreign operations, monetary assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates and other assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenues, expenses and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates. Gains and losses on translation of monetary assets and monetary liabilities are charged to operations.
(k)	Stock-based compensation
	The fair values for all stock-based awards are estimated using the Black-Scholes model and recorded in operations over the period of vesting. The compensation cost related to stock options granted is recorded in operations or capitalized to mineral properties, as applicable.
	Cash received on exercise of stock options is credited to share capital and the amount previously recognized in contributed surplus is reclassified to share capital.
(l)	Financial instruments
	The Company’s financial instruments are comprised primarily of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, amounts due to/from project partners, performance bonds, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. All financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value. Held-for trading financial assets are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Available-for-sale financial assets are   also measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in comprehensive income until the investment is derecognized or impaired, at which time the amounts in accumulated comprehensive income are  recorded in earnings. Cash and cash equivalents are accounted for as held for trading. Accounts receivable, amounts due to/from project partners, performance bonds and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are measured at amortized cost.
(m)	New accounting pronouncements
	In February 2008, the CICA issued new pronouncements in Section 3064, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, replacing Section 3062, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and Section 3450, Research and Development   Costs, establishing revised standards for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure   of goodwill and intangible assets. The new standard also provides guidance for the treatment of  preproduction and startup costs and requires that these costs be expensed as incurred. The new standard   applies to annual and interim financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after October 1, 2008. Section 3064 was adopted September 1, 2009, and doing so has had no effect. In July 2009, the CICA approved amendments to Section 3862, Financial Instruments – Disclosures. The amendments   require additional fair value disclosure for financial instruments and liquidity risk disclosures. These amendments require a three-level hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making  fair value assessments as follows:

• Level 1: Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• Level 2: Valuations based on directly or indirectly observable inputs in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted interest or currency exchange rates; and

• Level 3: Valuations based on significant inputs that are not derived from observable data, such as discounted cash flow methodologies based on internal cash flow forecasts.

There was no material impact upon adoption of this standard.

In January 2009, The CICA issued CICA Handbook Section 1582, Business Combinations, Section 1601, Consolidations, and Section 1602, Non-controlling Interests. These sections replace the former CICA Handbook Section 1581, Business Combinations and Section 1600, Consolidated Financial Statements and establish a new section for accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. CICA Handbook Section 1582 establishes standards for the accounting for a business combination, and states that all assets and liabilities of an acquired business will be recorded at fair value. Obligations for contingent considerations and contingencies will also be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date. The standard also states that acquisition related costs will be expensed as incurred and that restructuring charges will be expensed in the periods after the acquisition date. The section applies prospectively to business combinations for w hich the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after January 1, 2011.

All three sections must be adopted concurrently. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the sections.

CICA Handbook Section 1625, has been amended as a result of issuing Sections, 1582 1601 and 1602. These amendments are effective for the Company for its interim and annual financial statements beginning after January 3, 2011. The Company is assessing the impact of these changes on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the CICA issued amendments to CICA Handbook Section 1506. It was amended to exclude from its scope changes in accounting policies upon the total replacement of an entity’s primary basis of accounting relating to fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2009. The adoption of IFRS is not expected to qualify as an accounting change under Section 1506.

4. AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES

The Company sold all of its marketable securities during the year. At August 31, 2010 the Company has a $Nil balance in this account. These securities had been accounted for as available-for-sale at the previous year-end August 31, 2009 as follows:

			Accumulated Unrealized
August 31, 2009	Number of Shares	Cost ($)	Gains ($)	Fair Value ($)
MAG Silver Corp.	100,000	50,000	445,000	495,000
West Timmins Mining Inc.	800,001	160,000	1,480,002	1,640,002
Total Marketable Securities		210,000	1,925,002	2,135,002

On November 6, 2009 pursuant to an agreement between West Timmins Mining Inc. and Lake Shore Gold Corp., the Company exchanged its 800,001 shares in West Timmins Mining Inc. for common shares in Lake Shore Gold Corp. at a share exchange rate of 1 West Timmins share to each 0.73 share of Lake Shore Gold Corp. A gain of $2,100,080 was realized on the exchange of shares. In the second quarter of 2010 the Company sold its 584,000 shares of Lake Shore Gold Corp. realizing a further $44,080 gain on the sale of shares. $222,337 was allocated to AOCI from this sale.

During the year the Company sold 100,000 MAG Silver Corp. shares for a realized gain of $652,578. $66,413 was allocated to AOCI from this sale.

MAG Silver Corp. and West Timmins Mining Inc. are related parties of the Company, as discussed in Note 10.

5. MINERAL PROPERTIES
	Aug 31, 2010	Aug. 31, 2009
Projects 1 & 3 (a)	$109,588,950	-
Other mineral properties (b)	6,437,564	6,057,034
	$116,026,514	$6,057,034

(a)	Projects 1 & 3
	On October 26, 2004 the Company entered into the WBJV with a subsidiary of Anglo Platinum Limited (“Anglo”) and Africa Wide Mineral Prospecting and Exploration (Pty) Limited (“Africa Wide”) to pursue platinum exploration and development on combined mineral rights covering approximately 67 square kilometres on the Western Bushveld Complex of South Africa. Later the total area of the WBJV became approximately 72 square kilometres through further property contributions by Anglo. The Company and Anglo Platinum each held a 37% working interest in the WBJV, while Africa Wide held a 26% working interest. The area of the WBJV was comprised of three functional areas described as Project 1 (100% WBJV), Project 2 (50% WBJV: 50% Wesizwe Platinum Ltd.) and Project 3 (100% WBJV). In April 2007 the shareholders of Africa Wide sold 100% of their company to Wesizwe Platinum Ltd (“Wesizwe”) and since then Wesizwe has become responsible for all of the rights and obligations of Africa Wide.
	The Company published a Feasibility Study for Project 1 of the WBJV in July 2008 and later an Updated Feasibility Study in October 2009. Based on the WBJV resource estimate contained in the July 2008 Feasibility Study, and under the terms of the original WBJV agreement, each party was allocated an equalization amount due or payable based upon their contribution of measured, indicated, and inferred ounces of combined platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold (“4E”) from their contributed properties. On April 22, 2010 the Company paid an equalization amount due to Anglo in the amount of $ 24.83 million (R 186.26 million).

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended August 31, 2010

Also on April 22, 2010, the partners of the WBJV completed a transaction first announced September 2, 2008 whereby the WBJV was dissolved and its underlying assets were reorganized with the following outcomes:

• Wesizwe acquired all of Anglo’s rights and interests to the mineral rights underlying the WBJV, retained

Anglo’s mineral rights to Project 2, and then transferred all of Anglo’s mineral rights underlying Projects 1 and 3 into project operating company Maseve. The Company also transferred its interests in the mineral rights underlying Project 1 into Maseve, the result being that Wesizwe retained 100% of Project 2 and that Maseve obtained 100% of Projects 1 and 3.

• In exchange for its 18.5% of Project 2 the Company effectively received a 17.75% interest in Maseve.

The Company also received a 37% interest in exchange for its share of Projects 1 and 3, bringing its holdings in Maseve to 54.75%. Wesizwe received a 45.25 % initial interest in Maseve.

• The Company has a right to acquire a further 19.25% interest in Maseve for subscriptions in the amount of R 408.8 million (approx. $59.52 million as of November 22, 2010), thereby allowing the Company to increase its shareholding in Maseve to 74%. The subscription funds paid into Maseve by the Company will be held in escrow to be applied towards Wesizwe’s capital requirements for Projects 1 and 3. The cash subscriptions into Maseve are due by January 17, 2011 or the Company will lose the right to increase its interest to 74%. The Company may make partial subscriptions if it so chooses.

Pursuant to the terms of the WBJV Agreement and the WBJV Restructuring, the Company agreed to reimburse Wesizwe for past exploration costs, not including overhead costs, related to Project 2. Based on information provided by Wesizwe, the Company has accrued an amount due to Wesizwe of R9.72 million (approximately Cdn$1.41 million as at November 22, 2010) against amounts due from Wesizwe for its share of costs related to the WBJV, resulting in a net payable of $443,614.

The sale of the Company’s 18.5% interest in Project 2 was accounted for as an arm’s length transaction at a fair value of $65.42 million on April 22, 2010, versus an historic cost of $19.80 million, for a gain of $45.62 million. The transfer of the Company’s 37% interest in Projects 1 and 3 into Maseve was accounted for as a reorganization of existing business and was transferred into Maseve at book cost. The April 22, 2010 transactions qualified for relief from capital gains tax in accordance with South African tax law.

The fair value of the additional 17.25% interest in Maseve was estimated by calculating the net present value of Project 1 cash flows extracted from the updated feasibility study using independently validated consensus metal prices, a discount rate of 10%, and a Rand to $US exchange rate of 8:1. The fair values are highly sensitive to changes in the key assumptions.

The Company consolidated the financial statements of Maseve from the effective date of the reorganization. The portion of Maseve not owned by the Company and is accounted for as a non-controlling interest.

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended August 31, 2010

(1) Republic of South Africa

(i)	War Springs and Tweespalk
	On June 3, 2002, the Company acquired an option to earn a 100% interest in the 2,396 hectare War Springs property and the 2,177 hectare Tweespalk property both located in the Northern Limb or Platreef area of the Bushveld Complex north of Johannesburg. The Company now holds New Order prospecting permits on 100% of this territory. Acquisition and exploration costs on these properties to August 31, 2010 total $3,413,060 (2009 - $3,367,888).
	The Company can settle the vendors’ residual interests in these mineral rights at any time for US$690 per hectare. The Company pays annual prospecting fees to the vendors of US$3.25 per hectare. 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 applies to vendor payments.
	Black Economic Empowerment groups Africa Wide, a subsidiary of Wesizwe Platinum Ltd. and Taung Minerals (Pty) Ltd., a subsidiary of Platmin Limited, have each acquired a 15% interest in the Company’s rights to the War Springs project carried to bankable feasibility. The Company retains a net 70% project interest. Africa Wide also has a 30% participating interest in the Tweespalk property.
	On March 5, 2009 the Company announced an agreement with the Japan Oil, Gas and Metals National Corporation (“JOGMEC”), an incorporated administrative institution of the Government of Japan, whereby they may earn up to a 35% interest in the Company’s rights to the War Springs project for an optional work commitment of US$10 million over 5 years. Total expenditures incurred by JOGMEC to August 31, 2010 amounted to approximately $2,184,678 (2009 - $795,926). An amount of $186,416 in cash received from JOGMEC for work on this project remained to be spent at year end and was recorded as due to JOGMEC (2009 - $224,482 receivable from JOGMEC) as well as an  amount for the Waterburg project which is stated below.

	During  2009 the Company acquired by staking various prospecting permits in South Africa including  the Sable Joint Venture project area on the Western Limb of the Bushveld Complex west of  Pretoria and the Waterberg project area on the far Northern Limb of the Bushveld Complex.

In October 2009 the Company entered an agreement with JOGMEC and Mnombo Wethu Consultants CC (“Mnombo”) whereby JOGMEC may earn up to a 37% interest in the Waterberg project for an optional work commitment of US$3.2 million over 4 years, while at the same time in exchange for matching JOGMEC’s expenditures on a 26/74 basis, Mnombo may earn a 26% interest in the project. If required the Company has agreed to loan Mnombo their first $87,838 in project funding and the Company and JOGMEC may assist Mnombo to acquire commercial loans to fund their ongoing requirements, or may choose to allow Mnombo to defer those costs against their share of future proceeds from the project. Total expenditures incurred by JOGMEC to August 31, 2010 amounted to approximately $555,252. An amount of $237,040 in cash received from JOGMEC for work on this project remained to be spent at year end and was recorded as due to JOG MEC as well as an amount for the Warsprings project which is stated above.

(b)	Surface Rights
	In 2004 the Company acquired surface and mineral rights to 365.64 hectares of the farm Elandsfontein 102 JQ in exchange for total payments of approximately $1.4 million. The benefit of these rights became part of the WBJV under the original 2004 agreement. The Elandsfontein mineral titles were transferred to project operating company Maseve on April 22, 2010 while the surface rights, valued at half of the original acquisition cost (approx. $715,000), remain under title to the Company and a 45.25% credit of approximately $320,000 was applied to amounts due to/from Wesizwe in recognition of their attributable portion of the surface rights as at April 22, 2010.
	During 2008 the Company purchased surface rights adjacent to the WBJV Project 1 deposit area measuring 216.27 hectares for Rand 8.0 million (approx. $1.10 million) and the Company also acquired surface rights directly over a portion of the WBJV Project 1 deposit area measuring 358.79 hectares for an amount of Rand 15.07 million plus legal and interest charges of Rand 621,214 for a total of Rand 15.69 (approx. $2.14 million). The rights to these two properties are to the benefit of the Company alone and are distinct from the 365.64 hectare Elandsfontein Farm described above.
	On August 12, 2010 the Company (once again alone) acquired the option to purchase surface rights covering 1,713 hectares, including accommodation facilities and overlaying the area of the planned Project 1 Platinum Mine, for Rand 130.0 million ($18.80 million at the time). A non-refundable deposit of Rand 13.0 million (approx. $1.88 million at the time) was paid to the Vendor on August 26, 2010 and will be set against the final purchase amount. This deposit has been recorded in Surface Rights. The purchase price balance of Rand 117.0 million is subject to the grant of a mining authorization within one year of the deposit date. PTM may waive the condition precedent at any time. The Company can extend the option to purchase due date for a further year for a second Rand 13.0 million payment against the purchase price.
(c)	Rock Winders
	During 2008 the Company acquired two rock winders at a cost of R 16.6 million (approx. $2.3 million) for use  on a possible shaft facility for Project 1 of the WBJV. Later designs excluded the use of winders and these   winders have been held for sale and under title to the Company. On April 22, 2010 the Company applied  a 45.25% credit for R7.51 million (approx. $1.08 million) to the amount due to/from Wesizwe in recognition  of their attributable share of the winders on that date. During the year the Company sold one winder  for US $1.28 million (approx. $1.30) of which a non-refundable deposit of 50% was received on June  23, 2010. Subsequent to the end of the year on November 17, 2010 the Company received the final payment.

8.	CAPITAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s objectives in managing its liquidity and capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and provide financial capacity to meet its strategic objectives. The capital structure of the Company consists of equity attributable to common shareholders, contributed surplus, accumulated other comprehensive income and accumulated deficit.

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, issue new debt, acquire or dispose of assets.

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended August 31, 2010

In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary based on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions. The annual and updated budgets are approved by the Board of Directors. The Company does not currently declare or pay out dividends.

As at August 31, 2010, the Company does not have any long-term debt and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company examines the various financial risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of occurrence. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risks.

(a)	Credit risk
	Counterparty  credit risk is the risk that the financial benefits of contracts with a specific counterparty will be lost if a counterparty defaults on its obligations under the contract. This includes any cash amounts owed to the  Company by those counterparties, less any amounts owed to the counterparty by the Company where a legal right of set-off exists and also includes the fair values of contracts with individual counterparties which are recorded in  the financial statements.
	(i)	Trade credit risk
		Total credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of amounts receivable.
	(ii)	Cash and cash equivalents
		In order to manage credit and liquidity risk we invest only in term deposits with Canadian Chartered and South African banks that have maturities of three months or less. A South African Bank Rand account held in the United Kingdom is used for holding Rand denominations only, and is controlled entirely by PTM. Deposit limits are also established based on the type of investment, the counterparty and the credit rating.
(b)	Liquidity risk
	The Company has in place a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support   the Company’s normal operating requirements and its exploration and development plans. The annual  budget is approved by the Board of Directors. Future exploration, development, mining, and processing of minerals from the Company’s properties will  require additional financing. The Company has no credit facilities in place at this time,  although it is currently evaluating possible debt financing. The only other current source of funds available to the Company   is the issuance of additional equity capital, which if available, may result in substantial dilution to  existing shareholders. There is no assurance that such funding will be available to the Company, or that it will be obtained on terms favourable to the Company. Failure to obtain sufficient financing may result in delaying or indefinite  postponement of exploration, development, or production on any or all of the Company’s  properties, or even a loss of property interests.
(c)	Currency risk
	The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar, while its operations are in both Canada and South Africa; therefore the Company’s net earnings (losses) and other comprehensive earnings (losses) are impacted  by fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies in relation to the Canadian dollar. The Company’s significant foreign currency exposures on financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents, performance bonds,  accounts receivable, amounts due to Wesizwe, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company has not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible currency risks at this time.

(Exploration and Development Stage Company)                                                                                                                                                                         & nbsp;                                                                                                                                                                       P.70

Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended August 31, 2010

	The Company’s net loss and other comprehensive loss are affected by changes in the exchange rate between its operating currencies and the Canadian dollar. At August 31, 2010, based on this exposure a 10% change in the Canadian dollar versus Rand foreign exchange rate would give rise to a change in income for the year presented of approximately $38,500. During the year, a large foreign exchange loss occurred due to the drop in the value of the Rand relative to the Canadian dollar immediately before an equalization payment was made in Rand to Anglo Platinum on April 22, 2010. The foreign exchange loss related to holding this money in Rand prior to this transaction was approximately $1 million. Under normal business operations, large amounts of cash are not held in Rand to reduce the currency risks to the Company.
(d)	Interest rate risk
	The Company’s interest revenue earned on cash and cash equivalents and on short term investments is exposed to interest rate risk. At August 31, 2010, based on this exposure a 1% change in the average interest rate would give rise to an increase/decrease in the earnings for the year of approximately $24,000.
10.	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Transactions with related parties are as follows:

(a)	During the year, $679,121 (2009 - $385,967, 2008 - $449,807) was paid to non-independent directors for salary, consulting and bonus.

14. INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes reported differs from the amounts computed by applying statutory Canadian federal and provincial tax rates to the loss before tax provision due to the following:

	2010	2009	2008
Statutory tax rates	29.00%	30.17%	32.00%
Recovery of income taxes computed at statutory rates	$(11,960,605)	$2,203,883	$1,775,959
Changes in valuation allowance	(1,322,656)	(864,210)	(683,415)
Effect of lower tax rates in foreign jurisdictions	(429,460)	(32,699)	(66,007)
Non-deductible expenses	(334,692)	(638,247)	(195,057)
Other	(535,875)	(350,717)	(405,531)
Future income tax (expense) recovery	$(14,583,288)	$318,010	$425,949

The approximate tax effect of the temporary differences that gives rise to the Company’s future income tax assets and liability are as follows:

	2010	2009
Future income tax assets
Operating loss carryforwards	$13,403,828	$4,298,432

Mineral Properties	(30,376,024)
	$(30,376,024)	$(743,959)
	$(21,822,522)	$-

At August 31, 2010, the Company has unrecognized non-capital loss carry forwards available to offset future taxable income in Canada of $19 million, which expire at various dates from 2011 to 2030.

The above estimated future tax liability is based on management’s determination of the tax basis of the WBJV versus the carrying amount for accounting purposes. The determination of these amounts and the resulting deferred tax liability remains subject to measurement uncertainty.

(a)	Investment in WBJV
	Under Canadian and US GAAP the Company accounted for its working interest in the WBJV as an investment in the WBJV. Under Canadian GAAP these expenditures were capitalized to the investment in WBJV. Under US GAAP, exploration expenditures on mineral property costs can only be deferred subsequent to the establishment of mining reserves as defined under SEC regulations.
	As disclosed in Note 5 the Company published a Feasibility Study for the WBJV late in the 2008 fiscal year. The study defined mining reserves and, as a consequence, exploration and development costs relating to this investment were deferred under US GAAP, subsequent to September 1, 2008. The carrying amount, however, is affected by foreign exchange translation.
(b)	Exploration expenses
	Canadian GAAP allows exploration costs to be capitalized during the search for a commercially mineable body of ore if the Company considers such costs to have the characteristics of fixed assets. Under US GAAP, exploration expenditures on mineral property costs can only be deferred subsequent to the establishment of mining reserves as defined under SEC regulations. For US GAAP purposes the Company has expensed exploration expenditures in the period incurred. The Company believes that these cash expenditures under US GAAP are also more appropriately classified as cash operating activities as they were funded by the Company in the respective periods.
(c)	Reorganization of WBJV
	On April 22, 2010, the partner of the WBJV completed a reorganization of the WBJV (refer to Note 5). Under U.S GAAP, the Company expensed exploration costs until September 1, 2008, resulting in cumulative differences between the carrying amount of the investment in WBJV between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP. As a result of these differences, the accounting for the reorganization of the WBJV resulted in the following adjustments to reconcile from Canadian GAAP to U.S. GAAP:
•	Gain on sale of WBJV Project #2
•	Deferred income taxes arising on taxable temporary differences
•	Non-controlling interest

(d)

Comprehensive Income

Prior to September 1, 2007, the accounting for the Company’s marketable securities was different under US GAAP compared with the accounting under Canadian GAAP. Effective September 1, 2007, the Company adopted CICA Section 3855, Financial Instruments, which requires financial instruments to be carried in the financial statements at fair value. The Company accounted for marketable securities as available for sale financial instruments and carried them at fair value which is consistent with US GAAP. However, the accounting for future income taxes with respect to the fair value adjustments is different under Canadian and US GAAP. Under Canadian GAAP, the Company recorded a future income tax liability of $288,750 with a corresponding amount recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income. Offsetting this, under Canadian GAAP the Company adjusted the valuation allowance for future income tax assets by $288,750 and rec orded a future income tax recovery of $288,750 in the statement of operations. Under US GAAP, the adjustment to the valuation allowance would have been recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income. This amount was reversed in 2010 as the marketable securities were sold.

SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, 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:

	Year ended	Year ended	Year ended
	August 31, 2010	August 31, 2009	August 31, 2008
Net income (loss) under US GAAP	$32,958,313	$(7,347,731)	$(11,783,332)
Other comprehensive income (loss):
Unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities	-	1,017,002	(966,001)
Realized gain on marketable securities	(1,925,002)	-	-
Translation adjustment	58,378	108,145	(76,208)
Comprehensive net income (loss) under US GAAP	$31,091,689	$(6,222,584)	$(12,825,541)

(e)	Future income taxes on stock based compensation
	Under Canadian GAAP an income tax recovery is recorded in the statement of operations when eligible stock based compensation is capitalized against an asset, with the corresponding entry recorded against the asset.  However, under US GAAP, the Company expenses all exploration expenditure prior to establishing  mining reserves, including stock based compensation (refer to note 16(a) above for further discussion). Therefore, any income  tax recovery recorded under Canadian GAAP is derecognized for US GAAP purposes until mining reserves are established.
(f)	Impact of Recent United States Accounting Pronouncements
	(i)	FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) No. 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”)
		ASC 805, Business Combinations improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. This Statement establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes and measures the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. This standard was adopted and had no eff ect on the Company’s financial statements.

(ii) FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) No. 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”)

In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 810, “Consolidation”. ASC 810 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This Standard clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. ASC 810 changes the way the consolidated earnings (loss) statement is presented by requiring consolidated net earnings (loss) to be reported including the amounts attributable to both the parent interest and the non-controlling interest. The Standard requires disclosure on the face of the consolidated statement of operations of the amounts of consolidated net earnings (loss) attributable to the parent interest and to the non-controlling interest. ASC 810 is effective for fiscal periods, and interim periods within thos e fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company expects that the adoption of ASC 810 will not have significant effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(g)	Development stage enterprise
	The Company meets the definition of a development stage enterprise under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises. The following additional disclosures are required under U.S. GAAP:
	Consolidated summarized statements of operations and cash flows since March 16, 2000, the date the Company commenced operations.

NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS REGARDING RESOURCE ESTIMATES:

All resource estimates contained in this report have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Classification System in compliance with Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. Without limiting the foregoing, this report uses the terms“measured resources”,“indicated resources”and“inferred resources”. U.S. investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) does not recognize them. Under U.S. standards, mineralization may not be classified as a“reserve”unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Further, inferred resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of the inferred resources will ever be upgraded to a higher category. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist, or that they can be mined legally or economically. Information concerning descriptions of mineralization and resources contained in this report may not be comparable to information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the SEC.
