The announcement carries no repurchase volumes, prices or totals; it is a pointer to the ASX document, not the buy-back data itself. The linked Appendix 3C was not reviewed here, so the repurchase detail sits in that document rather than in this notice.","plain_english":"South32 buys back some of its own shares and files a short notice each day saying the paperwork has been lodged.
