Anglo American Platinum on Thursday said it expects a 20 percent increase in full-year earnings, helped by an increase in the rand basket price and improved operational performance.
Last year the world's largest platinum producer reported headline earnings of 3.9 billion rand ($277 million), or headline earnings per share of 1,482 cents.
