  6. Tax Base: Market Value / Gross Sales • Refined; & • Gold • PGM - refined • Oil & Gas • Unrefined; • Diamonds • PGM – concentrate • Iron ore • Coal • Manganese • Chrome • Base metal • Mineral Sands • Sliver concentrate • Uranium • Aggregates • Other

  7. Tax rates – formula (X = EBIT/Gross Sales *100) • Y (r) = 0.5 + X/12.5 (Max = 5.0) Refined metal (refined Gold, refined PGM), and Oil and Gas 2. Y (c) = 0.5 + X/9.0 (Max = 7.0) Unrefined; Concentrate Coal, Rough Diamonds, Iron Ore, etc.
