The company mines for platinum and other platinum group metals (PGMs) in South Africa's highly productive Bushveld Complex and in Zimbabwe through its 50% stake in Mimosa Investments. PGMs, including palladium and rhodium, are used in electronics, catalytic converters, and jewelry. Aquarius Platinum focuses on small deposits and a capital-intensive (mechanized) rather than a labor-intensive mining model. Founded in 1996, the company produces just about half a million ounces of PGM annually, mostly at its 50%-owned Kroondal mine (a partnership with Anglo Platinum ).

Competition
Competitive Landscape for Aquarius Platinum Limited
Demand comes largely from the manufacturers of durable goods like motor vehicles, machinery, containers, and construction steel. The profitability of individual companies depends largely on efficient operations, because most products are commodities sold based on price. Big companies have large economies of scale in production. Accordingly, most producers of secondary products buy raw metal from the large producers. Small companies can compete by operating efficient local mini-mills or producing specialty products. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is close to $300,000.
