Klipspringer Mine's Unionised Employees Strike For 20 percent Wage Increase

Shares Issued and Outstanding: 61,593,793
TSX: SUF
AIM: SRE

TORONTO, June 9 /CNW/ - SouthernEra Resources Limited announced today
that the unionised employees of the Company's 50 percent owned Klipspringer
Diamond Mine have embarked on a strike following a deadlock in wage
negotiations.
Management of the Klipspringer Mine has rejected a package of union
demands, which includes a 20 percent wage increase. The marginal nature of the
Klipspringer Mine, which is exacerbated by the strength of the South African
Rand, has made it impossible for the Mine to concede to the union's demands.

SouthernEra Resources is an independent producer of platinum group metals
and diamonds. The company also has an extensive PGM and diamond exploration
program. The common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the
London Stock Exchange's AIM market.
