Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. The Group impaired certain consumables and spares as the operational use became doubtful with no anticipated recoverable amount or value in use. The impaired consumables are allocated equally to the PGM and chrome operating segments (2017: 35.0% and 65.0% respectively to the PGM and chrome operating segments). There were no write-downs to net realisable value during the year (2017: no write-downs).
