AIM - LOSERS
----------
Jubilee Metals Group PLC, down 7.2% at 6.81p, 12-month range 4.60p-9.80p. The metal processing company says its South African chrome operations delivered an "exceptional" performance in the first nine months of its financial year, though its platinum output disappointed. It says chrome production rose 7.2% to 408,710 tonnes for the third quarter, which ended March 31, from 381,114 tonnes in the second quarter, despite being the quarter traditionally being known for lower production rates due to the January holiday period. Less positively, platinum group metals production dropped 18% to 8,339 ounces quarter-on-quarter from 10,131 ounces, mainly due to a reduction in available stock of lower-grade feed material, Jubilee said. "With robust operations in South Africa and a solid foundation for growth established in Zambia, Jubilee is well-positioned to deliver a strong Q4 performance, with production increases expected across all commodities," Jubilee Chief Executive Officer Leon Coetzer says.
