Impala Platinum Holdings Ltd. said it may buy metal on the open market to meet deliveries amid a 9 1/2-week strike at the world’s largest producers of the metal.

“We definitely can’t continue to supply all our clients as we normally would’ve done,” Johan Theron, a spokesman for Johannesburg-based Impala, the second-biggest producer, said today by phone.
