                          ("Dimension" or "the Group")

              Interim Results for the 6 months ended 30 June 2003



Chairman's Statement



The Board of Dimension announces interim results for the six months ended 30
June 2003, figures of which do not fully reflect the hard work and dedication of
the Management Team under especially difficult economic conditions.



The Board would like to highlight that the devaluation of the US Dollar against
the South African Rand has had a direct impact on the Group and is the key
reason behind why Dimension has failed to reach profitability. Selling prices
are stated in Dollars, while costs of production, and most overheads, in Rand.
The exchange rate has declined by almost half over the last 18 months, from more
than 11 Rand to the Dollar to little more than 7 Rand.



Financial Results



During the period under review, like for like turnover increased substantially
notwithstanding the result of exchange movements on the value of sales - in
volume terms this increase is even more marked. Coupled with breakdowns to key
plants, the Group's advance to profitability has been delayed.



Fund Raising



Since 30 June, the Group has raised #300,000 by a placing of new ordinary
shares. This has improved the working capital position, and the Board is
actively considering which of its other stone deposits can be brought into
production at the lowest possible risk. The Board is also hopeful that the
proposal to acquire and bring into production a Rustenburg black granite quarry
can now be implemented, as previous permitting problems have now been overcome.
This proposal now includes a 25% investment by a black economic empowerment
grouping.



Directorate Change



I am pleased to welcome to the Board Mr Geoffrey Hoodless as a Director of
Dimension. He has been a close supporter of the Group for some years through
Hoodless Brennan, the Group's brokers, and his skills should enable the Group to
finance its expansion plans.



Outlook



The exchange fluctuations have resulted in a testing time for Dimension in the
last six months. However with the strengthening of the Board, coupled with
encouraging demand for the Group's products, the Directors remain confident that
profitability will be achieved. I look forward to updating shareholders in due
course.
