PART I

Item 1. Business
Engelhard Corporation and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to as
the Company) are the successors to the businesses previously operated by
Engelhard Minerals & Chemicals Corporation (EMC) through its Engelhard
Industries and Minerals & Chemicals Divisions. In 1981, the Company's Common
Stock was distributed, as a spin-off, to the shareholders of EMC, and the
Company became a separate, publicly-held corporation. The Company's principal
executive offices are located at 101 Wood Avenue, Iselin, New Jersey, 08830
(telephone number (908) 205-5000).

The Company develops, manufactures and markets technology-based specialty
chemical products and engineered materials for a wide spectrum of industrial
customers and provides services to precious metals customers.

The Company recently announced a plan to realign and consolidate
businesses, concentrate resources and better position itself to achieve its
strategic growth objectives. See Note 2 "Special charge" to the Consolidated
Financial Statements on page 30 of the 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders.
This plan resulted in a special charge of $148.0 million ($91.8 million after
tax or $.95 per share) which covered a $118.0 million pretax restructure
provision for asset writedowns related to product lines or sites being exited
together with provisions for facility shutdown, rundown and relocation and for
employee reassignment, severance and related benefits and a $30.0 million
pretax environmental reserve for sites directly affected by this plan and for
the most recent assessment of continuing environmental developments.

The plan provides for the closure, relocation or consolidation of five
facilities in the U.S. and two sites in Europe currently operated by the
Chemical Catalysts and Engineerd Materials Groups. These actions are being
taken to ensure that certain product lines stay competitive despite changing
market conditions. Further, the plan covers one Specialty Minerals and Colors
facility in the U.S. which will be rationalized or idled. The Company expects
that these restructuring activities will impact approximately 600 employees.
The plan also provides for assets of the Petroleum Catalysts, Paper Pigments
and Chemicals and Specialty Minerals and Colors Groups which will become
obsolete as a result of the development of new production processes and the
reconfiguration of existing production processes or because certain product
lines have become uneconomic. A special team has been designated by the
Management Committee of the Company to implement the changes and programs
contemplated by this plan within the year 1994.

The Company employed approximately 5,750 people as of January 1, 1994 and
operates on a worldwide basis with corporate and operating headquarters and
principal manufacturing facilities and mineral reserves in the United States
with other operations conducted in the European Community, the Russian
Federation and the Pacific Rim.

The Company's businesses are organized into three segments -Catalysts and
Chemicals, Pigments and Additives, and Engineered Materials and Precious
Metals Management.

Information concerning the Company's net sales, operating earnings and
identifiable assets by industry segment and by geographic area; inter-area
transfers by geographic area; and export sales is included in Note 13
"Industry segment and geographic area data" to the Consolidated Financial
Statements on pages 37 and 38 of the 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders and is
incorporated herein by reference.
-3-
Catalysts and Chemicals
The Catalysts and Chemicals segment is comprised of three principal
product groups: the Environmental Catalysts Group, serving the automotive,
off-road vehicle, aircraft, industrial power generation and process
industries; the Petroleum Catalysts Group, serving the petroleum refining
industries; and the Chemical Catalysts Group, serving the chemical,
petrochemical, pharmaceutical and food processing industries.

Environmental catalysts are used in applications such as the abatement of
carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons from gasoline, diesel and
alternate fueled vehicle exhaust gases to meet emission control standards.
These catalysts are also used for the removal of odors, fumes and pollutants
generated by a variety of process industries including but not limited to the
painting of automobiles, appliances and other equipment; printing processes;
the manufacture of nitric acid and tires, in the curing of polymers; and power
generation sources.

The Company also participates in the manufacture and supply of automobile
exhaust emissions control catalysts through affiliates serving the Pacific
Rim: N.E. Chemcat Corporation (Japan) - 38.8 percent owned; and Hankuk-
Engelhard (South Korea) - 49 percent owned, both of which also produce other
catalysts and products. In the third quarter of 1992, the Company and Salem
Industries, Inc., formed Salem Engelhard, a jointly owned partnership to
produce and market products and services to abate, by catalytic and non-
catalytic methods, emissions of volatile organic chemicals and other
pollutants generated by a variety of process industries.

The petroleum refining catalyst products consist of a variety of catalysts
and processes used in the petroleum refining industry. The principal products
are zeolitic fluid cracking catalysts which are widely used to provide
economies in petroleum processing. The Company offers commercially a full
line of fluid cracking catalyst based on patented technology including the
DYNAMICS (registered trademark) line which can be used to control selectivity
and cracking activity virtually independently of one another. This
characteristic permits custom catalysts formulation for essentially all users.

The Company manufactures petroleum catalysts used for catalytic reforming
and isomerization of hydrocarbons to produce higher octane gasoline, for
isomerization of xylenes to produce paraxylene and orthoxylene and for
selective hydrogenation of alkylation feed stocks. The Company also
manufactures hydrotreating catalysts which are used in viscosity improvement
and aromatics saturation of lube oil feedstocks and for the removal of
contaminant sulfur, nitrogen and metals. These reforming, isomerization
and hydrotreating catalysts are marketed in North America and the Caribbean by
Acreon Catalysts, a jointly owned partnership formed by the Company and
Procatalyse. Process technologies developed by the Company are also offered
for license to the petroleum industry.

In March 1994, the Company completed its purchase of the assets
of the sorbents and moving bed catalysts businesses of Solvay Catalysts, GmbH,
in Nienburg Germany. This acquisition expands the Company's moving bed
catalysts business and provides complementary product lines serving adsorbents
applications.

The chemical catalysts products consist of catalysts and sorbents used in
the production of a variety of products or intermediates, including synthetic
fibers, fragrances, antibiotics, vitamins, polymers, plastics, detergents,
fuels and lube oils, solvents, oleochemicals and edible products. These
catalysts are generally used in both batch and continuous operations requiring
-4-
special catalysts for each application. Chemical catalysts utilize the
Company's proprietary technology and many times are developed in close
cooperation with specific customers. Sorbents are used to purify and
decolorize naturally occurring fats and oils for manufacture into shortenings,
margarines and cooking oils.

In early 1994, the Company and ICC Technologies, Inc. formed
Engelhard/ICC, a jointly owned partnership, to develop and commercialize air
conditioning and air-treatment systems based on a proprietary new desiccant
developed by Engelhard. The partnership will market these systems worldwide.

The products of the Catalysts and Chemicals segment compete in the
marketplace on the basis of product performance, technical service and price.
No single competitor is dominant in the markets in which the Company operates.

The manufacturing operations of the Catalysts and Chemicals segment are
carried out in seven states in the United States. Wholly-owned foreign
facilities are located in Italy, The Netherlands, Germany and the United
Kingdom with equity investments located in the U.S., Japan and South Korea.
The products are sold principally through the Company's sales organizations or
its equity investments, supplemented by independent distributors and
representatives.

The principal raw materials used by the Catalysts and Chemicals segment
include precious metals, procured by the Engineered Materials and Precious
Metals Management Segment; kaolin, supplied by the Pigments and Additives
Segment; and a variety of minerals and chemicals which are generally readily
available.

As of January 1, 1994 the Catalysts and Chemicals segment had
approximately 1,860 employees worldwide, many of whom are hourly employees
covered by collective bargaining agreements. Employee relations have
generally been good.

Pigments and Additives

The Pigments and Additives segment is comprised of two principal product
groups: the Paper Pigments and Chemicals Group, serving the paper industry and
the Specialty Minerals and Colors Group, serving the plastics, coatings, paint
and allied industries.

Paper pigments and chemicals products consist primarily of coating and
extender pigments. The coating pigments provide whiteness, opacity and
improved printing properties for high-quality paper and paperboard. Other
products are used as extenders and/or combined with fibers during the
manufacture of paper or paperboard. Products for the paper market include
Ultra White 90 (registered trademark) pigment, a high-brightness material for
high-quality paper coating; Ansilex (registered trademark) pigments that
provide the desired opacity, brightness, gloss and printability in paper
products; Nuclay (registered trademark) specialized coating pigment for
lightweight publication papers; EXSILON (trademark) structured pigment that
improves the printability of lightweight coated paper and carbonless forms;
and Spectrafil (trademark) pigments for the newsprint and groundwood
specialties markets.

Specialty minerals and colors kaolin based products are used as pigments
and extenders for a variety of purposes in the manufacture of plastic, rubber,
ink, ceramic, adhesive products and in paint. Principal products include
Satintone (registered trademark) products, ASP (registered trademark) pigments
-5-
and Translink (registered trademark) surface modified reinforcements. Other
specialty minerals and colors products which serve essentially the same end
markets as the Company's kaolin-based pigments and extenders comprise a
variety of organic and inorganic color pigments. The Group also produces
gellants and sorbents for a wide range of applications.

The products of the Pigments and Additives segment compete with similar
products as well as products made from other materials on the basis of product
performance and price. No single competitor is dominant in the markets in
which the Company operates.

Pigments and Additives operations are carried out in four states in the
United States and in Finland. The products are sold principally through the
Company's sales organization supplemented by independent distributors and
representatives.

The principal raw materials used by the Pigments and Additives segment
include kaolin and attapulgite from mineral reserves owned or leased by the
Company and a variety of minerals and chemicals which are generally readily
available.

As of January 1, 1994 the Pigments and Additives segment had approximately
1,840 employees worldwide, many of whom are hourly employees covered by
collective bargaining agreements. Employee relations have generally been
good.

Engineered Materials and Precious Metals Management

The Engineered Materials and Precious Metals Management segment includes
the Engineered Materials Group, serving a broad spectrum of industries and the
Precious Metals Management Group, which is responsible for precious metals
sourcing and dealing and for managing the precious metals requirements of the
Company and its customers.

The products of the Engineered Materials Group consist primarily of metal-
based materials such as temperature-sensing devices, crucibles, bushings,
gauze, precious metals coating and electroplating materials, conductive pastes
and powders, brazing alloys and precious metal wire, sheet, and tubing. These
products are used in the manufacture of automotive components, industrial
devices, glass and glass fiber, ceramics, chemicals, instruments, control
devices, fine jewelry, dental and medical supplies, hardware, furniture and
air conditioners. The Group also provides refining services to internal and
external customers.

The products of the Engineered Materials Group compete with similar
products as well as products made from other materials on the basis of product
performance, technical service and price. No single competitor is dominant in
the markets in which the Company operates.

Engineered Materials manufacturing and refining operations are carried out
in four states in the United States and in facilities located in the United
Kingdom, France and Italy. The products are sold principally through the
Company's sales organization, supplemented by independent distributors and
representatives.

The principal raw materials used by these operations are precious metals
including those of the platinum group (platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium
and ruthenium), silver and gold, all of which are generally available.

-6-
In January, 1993 the Company sold its 40 percent interest in M&T Harshaw,
an affiliate through which the Company had participated in the base metal
plating industry. In the fourth quarter of 1992, the Company formed Heraeus
Engelhard Electrochemistry Corp., a venture with Heraeus Inc. The venture, 46
percent owned, markets electrochemical products in the Western Hemisphere.

The Precious Metals Management Group is responsible for procuring precious
metals requirements of the Company's operations and its customers. Supplies
of newly mined platinum group metals are obtained primarily from South Africa
and the Russian Federation and to a lesser extent from the United States and
Canada, which four regions are the only known significant sources. Most of
these platinum group metals are obtained pursuant to a number of contractual
arrangements with different durations and terms. Management believes that
available supplies of such metals will be adequate to meet the needs of the
Company for the foreseeable future. Gold and silver are purchased from
various sources. In addition, in the normal course of business, certain
customers and suppliers deposit significant quantities of precious metals with
the Company under a variety of arrangements. Equivalent quantities of
precious metals are returnable as product or in other forms.

The Precious Metals Management Group also engages in precious metal
dealing operations with industrial consumers, dealers, central banks, miners
and refiners. The group does not routinely speculate in the precious metals
market. Offices are located in the United States, the United Kingdom,
Switzerland, Japan and the Russian Federation.

As of January 1, 1994 the Engineered Materials and Precious Metals
Management segment had approximately 1,470 employees throughout the world,
many of whom are hourly employees covered by collective bargaining agreements.
Employee relations have generally been good.

Major Customer

Approximately 12 percent and 10 percent of the Company's net sales for the
years ended December 31, 1992 and 1991, respectively, were generated from a
customer of both the Catalysts and Chemicals and Engineered Materials and
Precious Metals Management segments. Sales to this customer included both
fabricated products and precious metal and were therefore significantly
influenced by fluctuations in precious metal prices as well as the quantity of
metal purchased. In such cases, the market price fluctuations and quantities
purchased can result in material variations in sales reported but do not
usually have a direct or substantive effect on earnings.

Research and Patents

The Company currently employs approximately 300 scientists, technicians
and auxiliary personnel engaged in research and development in the field of
chemistry and metallurgy. These activities are conducted in the United States
and abroad. The Company spent approximately $45 million on research and
development in each of the last three years.

Research facilities include fully staffed instrument analysis
laboratories, which the Company maintains in order to achieve the high level
of precision necessary for its various businesses and to assist customers in
understanding the performance of Engelhard products in their specific
application.

The Company owns or is licensed under numerous patents which have been
secured over a period of years. It is the policy of the Company to apply for
-7-
patents whenever it develops new products or processes considered to be
commercially viable and, in appropriate circumstances, to seek licenses when
such products or processes are developed by others. While the Company deems
its various patents and licenses to be important to certain aspects of its
operations, it does not consider any significant portion or its business as a
whole to be materially dependent on patent protection.

Environmental Matters

The Company devotes considerable attention to the requirements of
environmental compliance. Management believes that compliance programs in
effect at all major operations satisfactorily meet the requirements of local,
state and federal environmental agencies. However, risks of increased costs
and liabilities relating to environmental matters are inherent in certain
Company operations, as they are with most other industrial companies. See
Note 15 "Environmental costs" in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements on pages 39 and 40 of the 1993 Annual Report to Shareholders.

The Company is preparing, has under review, or is implementing with the
oversight of cognizant environmental agencies, studies and cleanup plans at
several locations, including Salt Lake City, Utah and Plainville,
Massachusetts. In addition, the Company is in the process of implementing a
cleanup plan approved by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection
and Energy for the Company's Newark, New Jersey site. In December 1993 in
connection with obtaining its operating permit under the Utah Solid and
Hazardous Waste Act, the Company entered into an agreement with the Utah Solid
and Hazardous Waste Control Board to assess the environmental status of its
Salt Lake facility. With respect to the Plainville site, in September 1993,
the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Company
entered into a Consent Order under which the Company will conduct
stabilization measures and further study contamination at the site. This site
is also included on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) "Existing Site
Decommissioning Management Plan Sites" list and the NRC has approved the
Company's proposed plans for additional investigation of the site and an
interior cleanup of the plant.

The Company is currently identified as a potentially responsible party
(PRP) at 16 sites by the EPA under the Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (CERCLA) or by a state or
local equivalent under analogous laws. Subject to outstanding state claims or
the reopening of existing settlement agreements for extraordinary
circumstances or natural resource damages, the Company has settled a number of
other cleanup proceedings. In several additional instances, PRPs named by the
EPA or its state equivalent have notified or sued the Company claiming that
the Company should have been named a PRP and allocated a share of clean-up
costs. The Company has also responded to information requests from the EPA at
other CERCLA sites. The Company believes it is a de minimis contributor at
most of the sites referenced above and that there is no legal or factual basis
for the Company's alleged responsibility for any hazardous substances present
at certain of these sites.

While it is not possible at this time to predict with certainty the
ultimate outcome of all of the matters discussed above, it is the opinion of
management, after consultation with counsel and based on existing information,
that the resolution of these lawsuits and other matters in the aggregate will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business.

Item 2. Properties

-8-
The Company owns approximately 15 acres of land and three buildings with a
combined area of approximately 168,000 square feet in Iselin, New Jersey.
These buildings serve as the major research and development facilities for the
Company's operations. The Company also owns a research facility in the
Cleveland, Ohio area. In 1990, the Company entered into a 15 year lease for a
271,000 square foot building in Iselin, New Jersey, proximate to its owned
facilities, which serves as the principal executive and administrative offices
of the Company and its operating segments. This lease provides for three
consecutive five-year-period extensions. The building is owned by a
partnership in which the Company holds a significant interest.

The Catalysts and Chemicals segment owns and operates a complex of plants
in Georgia that manufactures petroleum cracking catalysts, and other domestic
plants located in Union, New Jersey; Huntsville, Alabama; Seneca, South
Carolina; Little Rock, Arkansas; Elyria, Ohio and Jackson, Mississippi.
Foreign manufacturing operations are conducted at owned facilities in Italy,
The Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. In addition, the segment
owns a mine in Mississippi and leases a mine in Arizona.

The Pigments and Additives segment owns and operates five kaolin mines and
five milling facilities in middle Georgia which serve an 85 mile network of
pipelines to four processing plants. It also owns land containing kaolin clay
and leases, on a long-term basis, kaolin mineral rights to additional acreage.
The segment also owns and operates an attapulgite processing plant in
Attapulgus, Georgia near the area containing its attapulgite reserves.
Management believes that the Company's crude kaolin and attapulgite reserves
will be sufficient to meet its needs for the foreseeable future. The segment
also owns and operates color pigments manufacturing facilities in Louisville,
Kentucky, Sylmar, California and Elyria, Ohio. Foreign operations are
conducted at owned facilities in Finland. In addition, the segment owns mines
in Florida.

The Engineered Materials and Precious Metals Management segment owns and
operates manufacturing facilities in Carteret and East Newark, New Jersey,
Anaheim and Fremont, California, Lincoln Park, Michigan and Warwick, Rhode
Island. Other manufacturing operations are conducted at owned facilities in
the United Kingdom, France and Italy.

The Company announced a plan to realign and consolidate businesses,
concentrate resources and better position itself to achieve its strategic
growth objectives. (See Item 1 "Business" above and Note 2 "Special charge"
in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements on page 30 of the 1993
Annual Report to Shareholders.) Management believes that the resulting
configuration will be suitable and have sufficient capacity to meet its normal
operating requirements for the foreseeable future.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

The Company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits covering a wide range
of matters. In some of these pending lawsuits, the remedies sought or damages
claimed are substantial. The Company has also received a demand for
indemnification from a distributor of the Company's talc products. The
Company is vigorously defending against these claims. See also "Environmental
Matters" for a discussion about lawsuits and matters concerning environmental
compliance. While it is not possible at this time to predict with certainty
the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits or the resolution of the environmental
contingencies, it is the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel
and based on available information that the disposition of these matters should
not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its business.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Results of Operations
- ----------------------
The Company reported net earnings before cumulative effect of
accounting changes of $16.7 million ($.17 per share) in 1993 compared
with $100.1 million ($1.00 per share) in 1992 and $87.9 million ($.87
per share) in 1991. 1993 net earnings included a special charge (see
"Special Charge") of $91.8 million ($.95 per share) and a gain on the
sale of an investment (see "Gain on Sale of Investment") of $6.3
million ($.06 per share). Net sales for 1993 were $2.2 billion
compared with $2.4 billion in 1992 and $2.4 billion in 1991.

In 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits" (SFAS No. 112). The impact of this change on
1993 results was a one-time, noncash, after-tax charge of $16.0
million ($.16 per share). Net earnings after the cumulative effect
were $.7 million ($.01 per share).

In 1992, the Company adopted the provisions of Statements of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 106 "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
Benefits Other Than Pensions" (SFAS No. 106) and No. 109 "Accounting
for Income Taxes." The impact of these changes on 1992 results was a
one-time, noncash, after-tax charge of $89.5 million ($.89 per share).
Net earnings after the cumulative effect were $10.6 million ($.11 per
share).

Special Charge
- ---------------
The Company announced a plan to realign and consolidate businesses,
concentrate resources and better position itself to achieve its
strategic growth objectives. This plan resulted in a special charge
of $148.0 million ($91.8 million after tax or $.95 per share) in
1993, which covered a $118.0 million pretax restructure provision for
asset writedowns related to product lines or sites being exited
together with provisions for facility shutdown, rundown and
relocation and for employee reassignment, severance and related
benefits and a $30.0 million pretax environmental reserve for sites
directly affected by this plan and for the most recent assessment of
continuing environmental developments. The special charge comprised
$76.0 million of noncash charges and a net cash outlay of $15.8
million after considering estimated proceeds and tax benefits.

The plan provides for the closure, relocation or consolidation of five
facilities in the U.S. and two sites in Europe currently operated by
the Chemical Catalysts and Engineered Materials Groups. These actions
are being taken to ensure that certain product lines stay competitive
despite changing market conditions. Further, the plan covers one
Specialty Minerals and Colors facility in the U.S. which will be
rationalized or idled. The Company expects that these restructuring
activities will impact approximately 600 employees.

The plan also provides for assets of the Petroleum Catalysts, Paper
Pigments and Chemicals and Specialty Minerals and Colors Groups which
will become obsolete as a result of the development of new production
processes and the reconfiguration of existing production processes or
because certain product lines have become uneconomic.
-29-
The realignment and consolidation plans are expected to yield annual
savings of about $20 to $25 million beginning in 1995 as a result of
lower manufacturing and operating expenses and annual cash savings of
about $15 million as a result of lower employee and plant operating
costs.

A special team has been designated by the Management Committee of the
Company to implement the changes and programs contemplated by this
special charge within the year 1994. The team is expected to ensure
that the special charge actions better position the Company to
achieve its strategic growth objectives.

The environmental provision represents the most recent estimate of
such costs at sites being idled or affected ($15.5 million), where
conditions have recently changed ($4.0 million) or where studies and
cleanup plans have been approved and the assessment of the likelihood
or extent of remediation has changed ($10.5 million).

Gain on Sale of Investment
- ---------------------------
In the first quarter of 1993, the Company sold its share of M&T
Harshaw, formed in 1990, to its partner, Elf Atochem North America,
Inc., for $40 million in cash with the buyer assuming all assets and
liabilities. The Company realized an after-tax gain of $6.3 million
($.06 per share).

The following discussions of the Company's segments focus on their
results of operations excluding the special charge:

Catalysts and Chemicals
- ------------------------
The Catalysts and Chemicals segment develops, manufactures and markets
a wide range of catalysts, chemical products and process technologies
for the automotive, off-road vehicle, aircraft, industrial power
generation, process, petroleum refining, chemical, petrochemical,
pharmaceutical and food processing industries.

Results of operations
(in millions) 1993 1992 1991
------- ------- -------
Net sales $ 541.1 $ 511.0 $ 459.9
Operating earnings 81.9 70.9 55.8
Special charge (79.1) _ _

1993 compared with 1992

Operating earnings increased 16 percent while sales increased six
percent over the prior year. Significantly higher earnings from the
Petroleum and Chemical Catalysts Groups more than offset lower
earnings from the Environmental Catalysts Group.

Increased demand and favorable pricing in the Petroleum Catalysts Group
produced significantly higher results in its fluid catalytic cracking
catalysts(FCC) business. The Chemical Catalysts Group benefitted from
substantial reductions in manufacturing costs as a result of its
reengineering programs, which more than offset lower volumes, largely
due to the timing of customer orders. The decline in the Environmental
Catalysts Group earnings was attributable to an increase in new
product development expenses and lower nonautomotive volumes, which
-30-
more than offset an increase in U.S. and European auto catalyst
volumes including the initial sales of diesel truck catalysts.

1992 compared with 1991

Operating earnings increased 27 percent in 1992. Sales increased 28
percent, as a result of the acquisition of the remainder of the
Company's former German joint venture (see "Investments") by the
Environmental Catalysts Group. The Petroleum Catalysts Group
generated increased sales and benefitted from favorable pricing and
product mix for fluid catalytic cracking catalysts in 1992. Lower
Environmental Catalysts Group earnings were due to reduced domestic auto
catalysts shipments, higher costs associated with the European auto
catalysts business and increased new product development and marketing
expenses, partially offset by technology transfer income. The Chemical
Catalysts Group earnings benefitted from cost reductions, which were
offset by the impact of the recession on the chemical, construction
and automotive industries.

1991 compared with 1990

Operating earnings increased 25 percent while sales increased slightly
over the prior year. The Environmental Catalysts Group benefitted from
higher worldwide sales of catalysts to the automotive industry. The
Petroleum Catalysts Group realized higher average pricing and a
favorable product mix for fluid catalytic cracking catalysts during
the year and strong moving bed catalysts volume in the first half of
the year. Earnings for the Chemical Catalysts Group declined primarily
as a result of the impact of the U.S. recession on the chemical,
construction and automotive industries and less favorable annual
physical inventory results.

Outlook

The completion of the new plant in Germany will increase the capacity
of the auto catalyst business and enable the Environmental Catalysts
Group to obtain a greater share of the European auto catalyst market.
The Company expects growth in the diesel truck catalysts business and
the pressures on its stationary source business to somewhat lessen.
The Petroleum Catalysts Group is expected to continue its favorable
trend by capturing more of the worldwide FCC market through increased
capacity and new technology. The Chemical Catalysts Group should
continue to benefit from its reengineering programs while it pursues
geographic expansion opportunities in Russia and the Far East.

Pigments and Additives
- -----------------------

The Pigments and Additives segment develops, manufactures and markets
coating and extender pigments for the paper industry and pigments and
additives, thickeners and absorbents for the plastics, coatings, paint and
allied industries.

Most of the minerals used by this segment are mined by the Company
from reserves it owns or has under long-term leases. The Company has
sufficient mineral reserves for its operations.



-31-
Results of operations
(in millions) 1993 1992 1991
------- ------- -------
Net sales $ 369.0 $ 362.2 $ 349.2
Operating earnings 55.0 56.8 54.8
Special charge (30.3) _ _

1993 compared with 1992

Operating earnings decreased three percent while sales increased
slightly. Earnings declined for both the Paper Pigments and Chemicals
Group and the Specialty Minerals and Colors Group.
The decline in the Paper Pigments and Chemicals Group was primarily
due to lower pricing and higher manufacturing and operating costs
which more than offset increased volumes. The Specialty Minerals and
Colors Group experienced unfavorable attapulgite volumes and higher
manufacturing costs in its minerals business, which more than offset
favorable volumes and pricing for its colors business.

1992 compared with 1991

Operating earnings and sales increased four percent in 1992. Higher
volumes, favorable sales prices and lower manufacturing costs,
partially offset by lower sales of attapulgite products primarily into
commodity markets, were the primary causes of favorable earnings in
the Specialty Minerals and Colors Group. A decline in the Paper
Pigments and Chemicals Group earnings reflected lower prices and
higher energy costs, partially offset by higher volumes and lower
operating expenses.

1991 compared with 1990

Operating earnings and sales decreased slightly. In the Specialty
Minerals and Colors Group, favorable pricing was offset by lower
volumes due to weakness in end-use markets. The Paper Pigments and
Chemicals Group increased its earnings due to lower production and
operating costs, despite the overall weakness of the worldwide paper
industry, which resulted in lower volumes and pricing for paper
pigments.

Outlook

Because the Company expects pricing pressures to continue in the paper
industry, the Paper Pigments and Chemicals Group will continue to
concentrate on the reengineering and cost reduction programs
initiated in 1993. The Specialty Minerals and Colors Group should
continue to benefit from improved margins in the U.S. coatings
business, while its minerals business should benefit from improved
market conditions.

Engineered Materials and Precious Metals Management
- ----------------------------------------------------

The Engineered Materials and Precious Metals Management segment
develops, manufactures and markets precious metals products and
coatings for a broad spectrum of industries and is engaged in refining
and in precious metals dealing and management.


-32-
Results of operations
(in millions) 1993 1992 1991
------- ------- -------
Net sales $ 1,240.8 $ 1,526.5 $ 1,627.3
Operating earnings 31.0 42.0 47.8
Special charge (38.6) _ _

Precious metals are a significant component of sales if the metal has
been supplied by the Company for the manufacture of a product. In
such cases, precious metals market price fluctuations can result in
material variations in sales. The Company also has arrangements
whereby customers supply the precious metals for the manufactured
product, and, in these arrangements, precious metals values are not
reflected in sales. The mix of such arrangements and the extent of
market price fluctuations significantly impact the level of sales
reported while not usually having a direct effect on earnings,
because purchases and sales of precious metals are generally hedged.

1993 compared with 1992

Operating earnings decreased 26 percent as sales decreased 19 percent.
The sales decline was principally the result of lower precious metal
volumes and pricing for certain platinum group metals. Lower earnings
from the Precious Metals Management Group more than offset higher
earnings from the Engineered Materials Group. Current market conditions
with reduced customer requirements and lower volumes and pricing for
certain platinum group metals caused the significant decline in the
earnings of the Precious Metals Management Group. The Engineered Materials
Group experienced cost savings and some volume increases in the U.S
market.

1992 compared with 1991

Operating earnings decreased 12 percent and sales decreased 11
percent. The sales decline was principally the result of the
acquisition of the remainder of the Company's former German joint
venture (see "Investments") and lower precious metals prices.
Earnings for the Engineered Materials Group were about the same as
last year, as higher volumes in the United States were partially
offset by the impact of weak European markets. Earnings from the
Precious Metals Management Group decreased as a result of generally
weaker market conditions.

1991 compared with 1990

Operating earnings increased 17 percent while sales declined 24
percent. The decline in net sales was principally caused by lower
precious metals volumes and prices and the absence of sales from
businesses sold or operated as part of a joint venture. In the
Engineered Materials Group, earnings improved significantly as cost
reductions continued to offset lower industrial products and jewelry
volumes. The Precious Metals Management Group had higher earnings as
a result of transaction timing and favorable market conditions.

Outlook

The Engineered Materials Group is expected to benefit from further
manufacturing efficiencies and geographic expansion which is expected
to somewhat offset a weak, but recovering European economy. The
-33-
results of the Precious Metals Management Group will continue to
depend largely on market conditions.

Equity Earnings, Interest and Taxes
- ------------------------------------
Equity in earnings of affiliates decreased to $3.4 million in 1993
from $7.4 million in 1992 and $5.0 million in 1991. The decrease in
1993 is primarily due to the absence of M&T Harshaw (sold in January,
1993). The 1992 increase reflects the results of the Company's former
German joint venture now being recorded in operating income. The 1991
results included the first full year of earnings of M&T Harshaw.

Net interest expense was reduced to $13.7 million in 1993 from $16.2
million in 1992 and $21.7 million in 1991. Gross interest expense and
offsetting contango income, which are components of net interest
expense, reflect the extent of precious metals financed by spot and
forward transactions during each year. The lower net interest expense
in 1993 was primarily due to the expiration of an unfavorable
interest rate swap agreement in 1992 and the initiation of a
favorable interest rate swap agreement in 1993. The lower net
interest expense in 1992 and 1991 resulted from the Company's planned
debt reductions. Interest income, included as a component of net
sales, was $2.0 million, $2.5 million and $6.5 million in 1993, 1992
and 1991, respectively. The lower interest income in 1993 and 1992
resulted primarily from lower average cash balances.

The Company recorded a $21.4 million income tax benefit in 1993
primarily due to the special charge. Excluding the impact of the
special charge, the effective income tax expense rate was 24.3 percent
in 1993 and 25.2 percent in 1992 and 1991. The lower expense rate in
1993 was primarily due to 1993 U.S. tax legislation which rein-stated
the research and development credit and increased the U.S. income tax
rate, which had a favorable impact on the Company's net deferred tax
asset. At December 31, 1993 the net deferred tax asset included in the
balance sheet was $117.3 million and related primarily to the adoption
of SFAS No. 106 and SFAS No. 112, the special charge and other
accruals. Management believes that the Company will generate sufficient
taxable earnings and tax planning opportunities to ensure
realization of these tax benefits.

Investments
- ------------
In March 1994, the Company completed its purchase, for cash, of the
assets of the sorbents and moving bed catalysts businesses of Solvay
Catalysts, GmbH, in Nienburg Germany. These businesses generated
sales of approximately $24 million in 1993. This acquisition expands
the Company's moving bed catalysts business and provides
complementary product lines serving adsorbents applications.
In early 1994, the Company and ICC Technologies, Inc. formed
Engelhard/ICC, a jointly owned partnership, to develop and
commercialize air conditioning and air-treatment systems based on a
proprietary new desiccant developed by Engelhard. The partnership
will market these systems worldwide.
In the fourth quarter of 1992, the Company and Procatalyse formed
Acreon Catalysts, a jointly owned partnership to market hydroprocessing
catalysts in North America and the Caribbean. In the fourth quarter of 1992,
the Company formed Heraeus Engelhard Electrochemistry Corp., a venture with
Heraeus Inc., 46 percent owned by Engelhard, which markets electrochemical
products in the Western Hemisphere.
-34-
In the third quarter of 1992, the Company formed Salem Engelhard with
Salem Industries, Inc., a major supplier of air pollution control
systems in Michigan. The jointly owned partnership markets products
and services to abate emissions of volatile organic chemicals and
other pollutants.
In the first quarter of 1992, the Company acquired the remaining 50
percent of Engelhard Kali-Chemie GmbH, an auto catalyst manufacturer
and marketer in Germany. In 1993 and 1992, the results of this
operation were included in the Catalysts and Chemicals segment.

Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ----------------------------------
At December 31, 1993, the Company had $53.8 million of working
capital, including $25.6 million of cash, available for its
operations. In addition, the year-end market value of the Company's
precious metals exceeded its carrying cost by $74.5 million . At
December 31, 1993 the Company's ratio of current assets to current
liabilities decreased to 1.1 from 1.5 a year earlier, primarily due to
increased borrowings and the special charge.

Short-term and commercial paper borrowings increased to $100.0 million
at December 31, 1993 from $50.7 million at December 31, 1992. The
increased borrowings were primarily due to the investment in catalyst
plants in Germany and Georgia and the financing of the Company's
stock purchase program. Typically, short-term borrowings are used to
finance precious metals in excess of the Company's owned inventories
needed for manufacturing and refining operations, as well as for
precious metals dealing activities. Such metals, when purchased, are
normally hedged, frequently with futures or forward sales contracts,
so that the Company is not at risk for subsequent price fluctuations.
Short-term borrowings are reduced as products are delivered to customers
or forward contracts are settled.

The Company's total debt to total capital ratio increased to 29
percent at December 31, 1993 from 20 percent at December 31, 1992 as
a result of higher short-term borrowings and lower shareholders'
equity, primarily due to purchases by the Company of its common stock
and the 1993 special charge. The Company currently has available $645
million in committed revolving credit facilities. The Company also
has authorization from its Board of Directors to issue up to $200
million of commercial paper ($20 million outstanding at December 31,
1993) and $100 million of additional long-term financing and has
uncommitted lines of short-term credit exceeding $700 million.
Management believes that the Company will continue to have adequate
access to short-term and long-term credit and capital markets to
meet its needs for the foreseeable future.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $130.4 million in 1993
compared with $169.5 million in 1992 and $135.4 million in 1991. For
the past three-year period, cash and internally generated funds were
adequate to fund working capital requirements, support capital
projects, sustain increased dividend payments and reduce average
outstanding share and debt levels. For 1994, the Company anticipates
that cash and cash flows will again be adequate to fund operational
and capital requirements.




-35-
Capital Expenditures, Commitments and Contingencies
- ----------------------------------------------------
Capital projects designed to maintain capacity, expand operations,

improve efficiency or protect the environment amounted to $107.1
million in 1993, compared with $54.1 million in 1992 and $46.3 million
in 1991. Capital expenditures in 1994 are projected to approximate
$80 million. See Note 15 "Environmental costs" and Note 16 "Litigation
and contingencies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for further information about contingencies.

Effect of Foreign Currency Translation
- ---------------------------------------
Worldwide, currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a
significant effect on the results of operations. Precious
metals transactions are generally not impacted by foreign currency
rate fluctuations because they are denominated in U.S. dollars.

Dividends and Capital Stock
- ----------------------------
In the third quarter of 1993, the Board of Directors authorized a
three-for-two split of common stock and approved a 10 percent increase
in the quarterly dividend on common stock to $.11 (restated to reflect
the split). These actions were effective as of September 30, 1993.
The annualized common stock dividend rate at the end of 1993 was $.44
per share.

In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Board of Directors approved a plan
to purchase up to 2.4 million shares of common stock for delivery under its
stock incentive and employee benefit plans and elected to retire 3.5
million shares of stock previously held in treasury.

In the third quarter of 1992, the Board of Directors authorized a
three-for-two split of common stock as of September 30, 1992.
In the second quarter of 1992, the Board of Directors approved two
separate plans to purchase up to 8.3 million shares (restated to
reflect the split) of the Company's common stock. At December 31,
1993, 6.7 million shares had been purchased.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Engelhard Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively
referred to as the Company). All significant intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts
have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

Cost of sales and inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The elements of
cost include direct labor and materials, variable overhead and the full
absorption of fixed manufacturing overhead. The cost of precious metals
inventories is determined using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of
inventory valuation. The cost of other inventories is principally
determined using either the average cost or first-in, first-out (FIFO)
method.
The Company routinely enters into a variety of arrangements for the
sourcing and supply of precious metals. These arrangements are spread
among a number of counter-parties, which are generally major industrial
companies or highly rated financial institutions. The conduct of this
business is closely monitored and appropriate reserves for potential
losses are maintained.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization

Additions to property, plant and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation and amortization of plant and equipment are provided
primarily on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the
assets. Depletion of mineral deposits and mine development are provided
under the unit of production method.
When assets are sold or retired, the cost and related accumulated
depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or
loss is included in earnings.

Amortization and intangible assets

Goodwill and other acquired intangible assets are recorded at cost and
amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated
useful lives of the assets, but not in excess of 40 years.

Contango and futures and forward contracts

The Company generally hedges on a daily basis purchases and sales of
precious metals inventories transacted in the normal course of business.
Such hedging transactions frequently involve the use of futures or forward
contracts for delivery of precious metals at some later date. Usually the
contract price exceeds the current (spot) price of these metals by a
premium referred to as contango, which in effect contributes toward the
cost to finance the metal holder's position. Accordingly, net contango
income, which represents the amortization of this premium over the lives
of the respective contracts, is shown as an adjustment to interest
expense.
-41-
Changes in the market value, net of contango, of futures and forward
contracts which qualify as hedges are generally recognized in earnings
when the related inventories are sold to customers. Changes in the market
value of other futures and forward contracts are recognized in earnings
in the period of the change.

Accounting changes

Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits." This standard requires the accrual method of
accounting for certain benefits provided to former or inactive employees
after employment but before retirement. As of January 1, 1993, the Company
recognized the full actuarially calculated amount of its estimated
accumulated postemployment benefit obligation. The charge to 1993 earnings
was $26.0 million ($16.0 million after tax or $.16 per share). The
after-tax amount has been reflected in 1993 as a cumulative effect of an
accounting change. In the third quarter of 1993, as a result of the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, the Company's obligation was
reduced by approximately $7.4 million after tax which will be amortized
over the average remaining service period of active plan participants.
Effective January 1, 1992, the Company adopted the provisions of
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" and No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes" (See Notes 4 and 6). The cumulative effect
of these accounting changes was to reduce 1992 net earnings by $89.5
million ($.89 per share).

Capital stock

The Board of Directors authorized three-for-two common stock splits
effective as of September 30, 1993 and September 30, 1992, respectively.
All share and per share data have been retroactively restated to give
effect to these stock splits.
On December 31, 1993, the Company retired 3.5 million shares of common
stock previously held in treasury.

2. Special charge

The Company announced a plan to realign and consolidate businesses,
concentrate resources and better position itself to achieve its strategic
growth objectives. This plan resulted in a special charge of $148.0
million ($91.8 million after tax or $.95 per share) in 1993, which
covered a $118.0 million pretax restructure provision for asset
writedowns related to product lines or sites being exited together with
provisions for facility shutdown, rundown and relocation and for employee
reassignment, severance and related benefits and a $30.0 million pretax
environmental reserve for the most recent estimate of such costs at sites
being idled or affected ($15.5 million), where conditions have recently
changed ($4.0 million) or where studies and cleanup plans have been
approved and the assessment of the likelihood or extent of remediation
has changed ($10.5 million).

3. Research and development costs

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred and were
$46.9 million in 1993, $44.6 million in 1992 and $45.1 million in 1991.

4. Pensions and other postretirement benefit
-42-
The Company has pension plans covering substantially all employees. Plans
covering most salaried employees generally provide benefits based on
years of service and the employee's final average compensation. Plans
covering most hourly, bargaining unit members generally provide benefits
of stated amounts for each year of service. The Company makes
contributions to the plans to the extent such contributions are currently
deductible for tax purposes. Plan assets primarily consist of listed
stocks and fixed income securities.

The components of the net pension credit for all plans are shown in the
following table:

Net Pension Credit

1993 1992 1991
-------- -------- --------

--------- -------- --------
Net pension credit $ (2,152) $ (5,364) $ (3,408)
========= ======== ========

The weighted-average discount rate and rate of increase in future
compensation levels used in determining the actuarial present value of the
projected benefit obligations for the pension plans are 7.5 to 7.75
percent and 3.5 to 5.0 percent, respectively. The expected long-term rate
of return on assets is 7.5 to 10.5 percent.

The following table sets forth the plans' funded status:

The Company also sponsors two savings plans covering certain salaried
and hourly paid employees. The Company's contributions, which may equal up
to 50 percent of certain employee contributions, were $2.0 million in 1993,
$2.0 million in 1992 and $1.9 million in 1991.

The Company also currently provides postretirement medical and life
insurance benefits to certain retirees (and their spouses), certain
disabled employees (and their families) and spouses of certain deceased
employees. Substantially all U.S. salaried employees and certain hourly
paid employees are eligible for these benefits, which are paid through
the Company's general health care and life insurance programs, except for
certain medicare-eligible salaried retirees who are provided a defined
contribution towards the cost of a partially insured health plan. During
the year, the Company negotiated changes to the plans which reduced the
cost of postretirement medical benefits.

Effective January 1, 1992 the Company adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106 "Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." This statement requires
the accrual method of accounting for postretirement health care and life
insurance benefits based on actuarially determined costs to be recognized
over the period from the date of hire to the full eligibility date of
employees who are expected to qualify for such benefits. As of January 1,
1992 the Company recognized the full actuarially calculated amount of its
estimated accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. The charge to
1992 earnings was $134.5 million ($83.4 million after tax or $.83 per
share). The after-tax amount has been reflected in 1992 as a cumulative
effect of an accounting change.

The components of the net expense for these postretirement benefits are
shown in the following table:

Postretirement Benefit Expense
(in thousands)
1993 1992
-------- -------
Service cost $ 2,139 $ 2,618

Net amortization (2,570) (978)
-------- -------
Net postretirement benefit expense $ 10,024 $ 12,654
======== =======

Cash spending for postretirement benefits was approximately $5.5 million
in 1993 and $7.8 million in 1992. In 1991, under the previous method of
accounting for postretirement benefits, the approximate amount of annual
costs (cash spending) for such benefits was $6.7 million.

The following table sets forth the components of the accrued postretirement
benefit obligation, all of which are unfunded:

Unrecognized net loss (24,721) (8,044)
--------- ---------
Accrued postretirement benefit obligation $ 143,783 $ 140,288
========= =========

The weighted-average discount rate used in determining the actuarial
present value of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation is 7.75
percent. The average assumed health care cost trend rate used for 1993 is
13.5 percent, gradually decreasing to 5.5 percent by 2004. A one percent
increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would increase
aggregate service and interest cost in 1993 by $1.2 million and the
accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 1993 by
$10.6 million.

5. Related party transactions

The Company, in the ordinary course of business, has raw material supply
arrangements with entities in which it is informed Anglo American
Corporation of South Africa Limited (Anglo) has a material interest. Anglo
indirectly holds a significant minority interest in the common stock of the
Company. The Company's purchases from such entities amounted to $228.7
million in 1993, $254.5 million in 1992 and $284.1 million in 1991, and were
transacted upon terms no less favorable to the Company than those obtained
from other parties. At December 31, 1993 and 1992 amounts due to such
entities totaled $3.4 million and $16.2 million, respectively.

6. Income taxes

Effective January 1, 1992 the Company adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes."
This statement requires the liability method of accounting for income
taxes. The cumulative effect of adopting this standard was to reduce 1992
net earnings by $6.1 million ($.06 per share).

The foreign portion of income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit)
was income of $20.9 million in 1993, $36.4 million in 1992 and $65.5
million in 1991. Taxes on income of foreign consolidated subsidiaries and
affiliates are provided at the tax rates applicable to their respective
foreign tax jurisdictions. Tax charges (credits) of $(.7) million in
1993, $(4.3) million in 1992 and $.8 million in 1991, in connection with
foreign currency adjustments, are included in such adjustments for those
years and are not reflected in the amounts shown below. The components of
income tax expense are shown in the following table:

The deferred income tax balance sheet accounts result from temporary
differences between the amount of assets and liabilities recognized for
financial reporting and tax purposes. The following table sets forth the

Management believes that the Company will generate sufficient taxable
earnings and tax planning opportunities to ensure realization of these tax
benefits. As of December 31, 1993 the Company had approximately $12.8
million of nonexpiring alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards
available to offset future U.S. Federal income taxes and approximately
$12.7 million of nonexpiring net operating loss carryforwards available to
offset certain foreign income taxes.

In 1991, under the previous method of accounting for income taxes, the
deferred income tax expense resulted primarily from differences in the
timing of the recognition of events for financial reporting and tax
purposes, primarily depreciation, the computation of precious metals
costs and other accruals.

At December 31, 1993 the Company's share of the cumulative undistributed
earnings of foreign subsidiaries was approximately $229.4 million. No
provision has been made for U.S. or additional foreign taxes on the
undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because such earnings are
expected to be reinvested indefinitely in the subsidiaries' operations. It
is not practicable to estimate the amount of additional tax that might be
payable on these foreign earnings in the event of distribution or sale;
however, under existing law, foreign tax credits would be available to
substantially reduce, or in some cases eliminate, U.S. taxes payable.

7. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

Precious metals $ 53,428 $ 73,382
Other 162,851 168,011
--------- ---------

========= =========

All precious metals inventories are stated at LIFO cost. The market value
of the precious metals inventories exceeded cost by $55.7 million and $56.3
million at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The Company also has
a long-term investment in precious metals. The combined market value of
precious metals in inventories and the investment exceeded cost by $74.5
million and $96.2 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

Although precious metals inventory quantities were reduced in 1993, the
net gain on these sales transactions was insignificant.


-47-
In the normal course of business, certain customers and suppliers
deposit significant quantities of precious metals with the Company under a
variety of arrangements. Equivalent quantities of precious metals are
returnable as product or in other forms.

8. Investments

The Company has investments in affiliates that are accounted for on the
equity method. The most significant of these investments is N.E. Chemcat
Corporation (N.E. Chemcat), a 38.8 percent owned, publicly-traded Japanese
corporation and a leading producer of chemical and automotive catalysts,
electronic chemicals and other precious-metals-based products. At December
31, 1993 the quoted market value of the Company's investment in N.E.
Chemcat was in excess of $135 million. This valuation represents a
mathematical calculation based on a closing quotation published by the
Tokyo over-the-counter market.

In the first quarter of 1993, the Company sold its investment in M&T
Harshaw to its partner for $40 million in cash with the buyer assuming all
assets and liabilities. As a result, the Company realized an after-tax
gain of $6.3 million ($.06 per share).

In the first quarter of 1992, the Company acquired for cash the
remaining 50 percent of Engelhard Kali-Chemie GmbH, an auto catalyst
manufacturer and marketer in Germany.

10. Long-term debt

At December 31, 1993 unsecured committed revolving credit agreements
include a $290 million facility with a group of North American money
center banks and a $355 million facility with a group of major foreign
banks each of which expires in 1996. Commitment fees are paid on unused
portions of these lines. In connection with its credit facilities, the
Company has agreed to certain covenants, none of which are considered
restrictive to the operations of the Company.

Additional unused lines of credit available exceeded $700 million at
December 31, 1993. The Company's lines of credit with its banks are
available in accordance with normal terms for prime commercial borrowers
and are not subject to commitment fees or other restrictions.

The following table sets forth the components of long-term debt:

As of December 31, 1993 the aggregate maturities of long-term debt for the
succeeding five years are as follows: $.4 million in 1994, $.3 million in
each of the years 1995 and 1996, $6.8 million in 1997 and $.2 million in
1998.
-49-
11. Lease commitments

The Company rents real property and equipment under long-term operating
leases. Future minimum rental payments required under noncancellable
operating leases, having initial or remaining lease terms in excess of one
year, are $9.3 million in 1994, $8.9 million in 1995, $8.2 million in
1996, $7.7 million in 1997, $7.1 million in 1998 and $45.5 million
thereafter. Rental/lease expense amounted to $13.5 million in 1993, $12.0
million in 1992 and $12.7 million in 1991.

12. Financial instruments

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash in banks,
temporary investments, accounts receivable and debt. In addition, the
Company has an interest rate swap agreement and has foreign currency
exchange contracts that hedge its exposure on various transactions and on
certain of its net foreign investments. The fair value of financial
instruments in working capital approximated book value. At December 31,
1993 the fair value of long-term debt was about $125 million, based on
current interest rates.

None of the Company's financial instruments represent a concentration of
credit risk because the Company deals with a variety of major banks
worldwide and its accounts receivable are spread among a number of major
industries, customers and geographic areas. In addition, a centralized
credit committee reviews significant credit transactions before consummation
and an appropriate level of reserves is maintained. Provisions to these
reserves were not significant in 1993, 1992 or 1991. None of the Company's
off-balance sheet financial instruments, if a counter-party failed to
perform according to the terms of an agreement, would result in a
significant loss to the Company.

13. Industry segment and geographic area data

The Company operates in three industry segments: Catalysts and Chemicals,
Pigments and Additives, and Engineered Materials and Precious Metals
Management.

The Catalysts and Chemicals segment develops, manufactures and markets a
wide range of catalysts, chemical products and process technologies for
the automotive, off-road vehicle, aircraft, industrial power generation,
process, petroleum refining, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and
food processing industries.

The Pigments and Additives segment develops, manufactures and markets
coating and extender pigments for the paper industry and pigments and
additives, thickeners and absorbents for the plastics, coatings, paint and
allied industries.

The Engineered Materials and Precious Metals Management segment
develops, manufactures and markets precious metals products and coatings for
a broad spectrum of industries and is engaged in refining and in precious
metals dealing and management.

The following table presents certain data by industry segment
(See Note 2):

Intersegment sales are not significant. The special charge reduced
identifiable assets by $33.2 million in Catalysts and Chemicals, $25.4
million in Pigments and Additives and $7.5 million in Engineered Materials
and Precious Metals Management while the related tax benefit increased
identifiable assets by $48.3 million in Corporate and Other.

reduced identifiable assets by $10.8 million in the United States and
$7.0 million in the foreign operations. Most of the Company's foreign
operations are conducted by European subsidiaries. United States export
sales to customers throughout the world were $231.2 million in 1993,
$316.3 million in 1992 and $320.3 million in 1991.

For the years ended December 31, 1992 and 1991, one customer of both the

Management segments accounted for 12 percent and 10 percent, respectively,

14. Stock option and bonus plans

The Company's Stock Option Plans of 1991 and 1981, as amended (the Key
Option Plans) generally provide for the granting to key employees of
-52-
options to purchase an aggregate of 11,250,000 and 4,556,250 common
shares, respectively, at fair market value on the date of grant. No
options under the Key Option Plans may be granted after June 30, 2001. In
1993, the Company established the Employee Stock Option Plan of 1993, as
amended, which generally provides for the granting to all employees
(excluding U.S. bargaining unit employees and key employees eligible
under the Key Option Plans) of options to purchase an aggregate of
1,875,000 common shares at fair market value on the date of grant. No
options under this plan may be granted after December 31, 1994. Options
under all plans become exercisable in installments after one year, and no
options may be exercised after ten years from the date of grant.
Outstanding options may be cancelled and reissued under terms specified
in the plan documents. The effect of outstanding stock options has been
excluded from the calculation of the number of shares outstanding used to
compute earnings per share of common stock because it is not significant.
Stock option transactions under all plans are as follows:

The Company's Key Employee Stock Bonus Plan, as amended (the Bonus Plan)
provides for the award of up to 11,250,000 common shares to key employees
as compensation for future services, not exceeding 1,012,500 shares in any
year (plus any cancelled awards or shares available for award but not
previously awarded). The Bonus Plan terminates on June 30, 1996. Shares
awarded vest in installments annually after one year, providing the
recipient is still employed by the Company on the vesting date.
Compensation expense is measured on the date the award is granted and
amortized ratably over the vesting period. Shares awarded, net of
cancellations, are included in average shares outstanding.

15. Environmental costs

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to extensive
and changing federal and state environmental protection laws and
-53-
regulations. In addition, the Company is currently identified as a
potentially responsible party at a number of sites by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency, under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended or by a state
or local equivalent under analogous laws. The Company is preparing, has
under review or is implementing, with the oversight of cognizant
environmental agencies, studies and cleanup plans at certain other
locations.

It is the Company's policy to accrue environmental and cleanup related
costs of a non-capital nature when those costs are probable and can be
reasonably estimated. The quantification of environmental exposures requires
an assessment of many factors, including changing laws and regulation,
advancements in environmental technologies, the quality of information
available related to specific sites, the assessment stage of each site
investigation, the financial capability of other potentially responsible
parties and the length of time involved in remediation or settlement.
Subject to the foregoing, the liabilities for environmental costs recorded
in the consolidated balances sheets at December 31, 1993 and 1992 are
$66.1 million and $38.0 million, respectively. In 1993, $30.0 million was
provided in connection with the Special Charge (see Note 2) for the
Company's most recent estimate of environmental costs at sites being idled
or affected, where conditions have recently changed or where studies and
cleanup plans have been approved and the assessment of the likelihood or
extent of remediation has changed.

The amounts provided for environmental costs are expected to be paid out
over an extended period of time. Excluding the amount provided in the
Special Charge in 1993, environmental matters have not had a significant
impact on the Company or its business in the past three-year period as
the amounts paid and expensed have been immaterial and the amounts paid
and capitalized have comprised less than 10 percent of the Company's
capital expenditure programs. While it is not possible to predict with
certainty, management believes that the reserves at December 31, 1993 are
reasonable and adequate and that the costs of future remedial actions to
comply with the present laws governing environmental protection should be
consistent, on average, with recent experience.

16. Litigation and contingencies

The Company is a defendant in numerous lawsuits and is subject to a number
of environmental contingencies (see Note 15). While it is not possible at
this time to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits
or resolution of the environmental contingencies, it is the opinion of
management, after consultation with counsel, that the disposition of these
matters should not have a material adverse effect on the Company or its
business.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

Report of Independent Public Accountants

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Engelhard Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Engelhard
Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the
related consolidated statements of earnings, shareholders' equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Engelhard Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and
the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Notes 1, 4 and 6 to the consolidated financial
statements, in 1993 the Company changed its method of accounting for
postemployment benefits and in 1992 the Company changed its methods of
accounting for income taxes and postretirement benefits other than pensions.

Report of Independent Public Accountants





To the Pension and Employee Benefit Plans Committee of Engelhard Corporation:

We have audited the financial statements and the financial statement
schedule of the Salary Deferral Savings Plan of Engelhard Corporation listed
in the index on Page 105 of this Form 11-K. These financial statements and
the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Plan's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and the financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Salary Deferral
Savings Plan of Engelhard Corporation as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - Description of the Plan
The Salary Deferral Savings Plan of Engelhard Corporation (the Plan), as
amended and restated as of September 1, 1989, is designed to provide eligible
employees of Engelhard Corporation (the Company) an opportunity to save part
of their income by having the Company reduce their compensation and contribute
the amount of the reduction to the Plan on a tax deferred basis.

The following plan description is provided for general information
purposes. Participants of the Plan should refer to the plan document for more
detailed and complete information.

Eligibility
- ------------
Except as specifically included or excluded by the Board of Directors of
the Company (the Board), U.S. salaried employees of the Company and its
wholly-owned (directly or indirectly) domestic subsidiaries and all non-
collectively bargained hourly employees who have completed at least one year
of service, as defined, are eligible to participate in the Plan as of the
first day of the month in which they meet the year of service requirement.

Contributions
- --------------
The Plan permits eligible employees participating in the Plan (the
Participants) to elect to reduce their compensation, as defined, by a whole
percentage thereof, subject to limitations, and to have that amount
contributed to the Plan and the related taxes deferred.

Matching Contributions
- -----------------------
The Company will contribute, on a monthly basis and subject to limitations and
exclusions, either cash or common stock of the Company in an amount equal to
50 percent of the amount contributed by the Participants.

Investments
- -------------
All contributions to the Plan are held and invested by Vanguard Fiduciary
Trust Company (the Trustee). The Trustee maintains eight separate investment
funds within the Trust:

a) The Company Stock Fund, which consists of assets invested or held for
investment in the common stock of the Company. In the event the
assets cannot be immediately invested in Company common stock, the
funds are invested in short-term securities pending investments in
Company common stock.

b) The Fixed Income Fund, which consists of assets invested in shares of
the Vanguard Variable Rate Investment Contract Trust. In the event
the assets cannot be immediately invested in such shares or deposited
as specified above, the assets are invested in short-term investments
at the discretion of the Pension and Employee Benefit Plans Committee
(the Committee).

-84-

c) The Growth Fund, which consists of assets invested in the Vanguard
Windsor Fund, which invests primarily in common stocks for the
purpose of realizing long-term growth of capital and income.

d) The Balanced Fund, which consists of assets invested in the Vanguard
Asset Allocation Fund, which invests in stocks, bonds and cash
reserves for the purpose of maximizing long-term total return with
less volatility than a portfolio of common stock.

e) The Equity Index Fund, which consists of assets invested in the
Vanguard Quantitative Portfolio, which invests primarily in common
stocks for the purpose of realizing a total return greater than the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index while maintaining fundamental investment
characteristics similar to such Index.

f) International Growth Fund, which consists of assets invested in
shares of the Vanguard International Growth Portfolio or such other
mutual fund or funds which invest primarily in common stocks of
companies based outside the Untied States that have above-average
growth potential for the purpose of realizing long-term capital
growth.

g) Small Cap Fund, which consists of assets invested in shares of the
Vanguard Small Capitalization Stock Fund or such other mutual fund or
funds which invest primarily in common stocks of small-sized
companies for the purpose of providing a comparatively low-cost
method of passively capturing the investment returns of small-sized
companies and attempting to provide investment results that parallel
the performance of the unmanaged Russell 2000 Small Stock Index.

h) Short-Term Bond Fund, which consists of assets 118 invested in shares
of the Short-Term Corporate Portfolio of the Vanguard Fixed Income
Securities Fund or such other mutual fund or funds which invest
primarily in relatively short maturity investment-grade bonds for
the purpose of providing a level of current income consistent with a
two to three year average maturity and helping to preserve capital.


Participants have the right to elect, subject to restrictions, in which
investment fund or funds their contributions are invested. All matching
contributions are invested in the Company Stock Fund.

The number of Participants in each fund was as follows at December 31:

Participants 1993 1992
---------- ----------
Common Stock Fund 1,946 1,956
Fixed Income Fund 1,435 1,518
Growth Fund 1,064 1,019
Balanced Fund 529 439
Equity Index Fund 546 493
International Growth Fund 47 -
Small Cap Fund 21 -
Short-Term Bond Fund 7 -

The total number of Participants in the Plan was less than the sum of the
number of Participants shown above because many were participating in more
than one fund.
-85-


The number of units representing Participant interests in each fund and
the related net asset value per unit were as follows at December 31:


Participant Interests

Company Fixed Equity Int'l Small Short-Term
Stock Income Growth Balanced Index Growth Cap Bond
Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund
--------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------
1993:
Units 1,228,287 23,890,381 886,564 275,294 233,983 54,468 19,668 8,690
Value per unit $27.69 $1.00 $13.91 $14.45 $16.45 $13.51 $15.67 $10.90

1992:
Units 1,282,779 24,610,977 711,677 173,739 160,693 - - -
Value per unit $26.06 $1.00 $12.74 $13.64 $16.30 - - -



Vesting
- ---------
Participants at all times have a fully vested and non-forfeitable interest in
their contributions and in the matching contributions allocated to their
account.

Loan Provision
- ---------------
The Plan allows Participants who have participated in the Plan for at least
one year to borrow funds from their accounts, subject to certain terms and
conditions, at a reasonable interest rate as determined by the Committee in
accordance with applicable law. Effective January 1, 1994, participants may
have two loans outstanding at a time.

Termination
- ------------
The Company, although it expects and intends to continue the Plan
indefinitely, has reserved the right of the Board to terminate or amend the
Plan.

Distributions and Withdrawals
- ------------------------------
All distributions and withdrawals from the Plan are made to Participants in a
lump sum cash payment except those amounts distributed from the Company Stock
Fund which may, at the Participant's election, be paid in full shares of the
Company's Common Stock with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares.


Note 2 - Accounting Policies

The accounts of the Plan are maintained on an accrual basis.
Purchases and sales of investments are reflected on a trade date basis.
Assets of the Plan are valued at fair value. Gains and losses on
distributions to participants and sales of investments are based on average
cost. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

-86-

Note 3 - Income Tax Status

The Plan and the Trust created thereunder are intended to qualify
under Section 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the Code) and the Plan includes a cash or deferred arrangement
intended to meet the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Code. The Internal
Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter as to the Plan's
qualified status under the Code. Amounts contributed to and earned by the
Plan are not taxed to the employee until a distribution from the Plan is made.
In addition, the unrealized appreciation on any shares of common stock of the
Company distributed to an employee is not taxed until the time of disposition
of such shares.

Note 4 - Administrative Expenses

All expenses of the Plan are paid for by the Company. Investment
advisory fees for portfolio management of Vanguard funds are paid directly
from fund earnings. Advisory fees are included in the fund expense ratio and
will not reduce the assets of the Plan. Brokerage commissions paid to
purchase Engelhard Corporation common stock are paid for by the Company.
Effective January 1, 1994, certain administrative fees and brokerage
commissions will be charged against each participant's fund unit value.


Note 5 - Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Plan to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of investment contracts with
insurance and other financial institutions. The Plan places its investment
contracts with high-credit quality institutions and, by policy, limits the
amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution.

Note 6 - Investments

Investments in the Common Stock of the Company are valued at the
readily-available, quoted market price as of the valuation date and
investments in the Vanguard Funds are valued based on the quoted net asset
value (redemption value) of the respective investment company as of the
valuation date.

amended in the following respects, effective as of the dates set forth below:

1. Effective as of November 1, 1992, Section 3.02(b) is amended to read

"(b) is a Highly Compensated Employee (as defined in Section 414(q)
of the Code) as of the later of (i) the date the individual becomes a
Participant, or (ii) the first day of a Plan Year, if for such Plan
Year the Participant is eligible to receive an award pursuant
to the Company's Key Employees Stock Bonus Plan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, an individual shall be treated as covered by this
subparagraph (b) only with respect to
periods on or after the first day of the month coinciding with or
next following the month in which he becomes eligible to receive an
award pursuant to the Company's Key
Employees Stock Bonus Plan, and shall cease to be covered by this
subparagraph (b) with respect to periods on or after the first day of
the month coinciding with or next following the month in which he is
no longer eligible to receive such an award; or"

2. Effective as of November 1, 1992, the last paragraph of Section 7.04
shall be amended to read as follows:

"A Participant's Accounts shall not be reduced when he receives a

connection with the loan, (b) the Participant's employment terminates
with all Employers by reason of his Retirement, Disability, death,
discharge, quitting, or transfer to an Affiliate that is not an
Employer, or (c) the Participant incurs a Separation from Service due
to leave of absence, then any principal then outstanding and interest
accrued thereon shall become due and payable. If such amount is not

Upon such a default, any outstanding Plan loan (including interest
accrued and unpaid thereon) to a Participant shall be charged against

The outstanding loan balance shall be treated as repaid to the extent

as follows:

"(b) A Participant may revise his contribution percentage to any

Account, if any) in the Fixed Income Fund, Balanced Fund, Equity
Index Fund, Growth Fund, Common Stock Fund, Corporate Bond Fund,
International Growth Fund and/or the Small Capitalization Equity Fund

telephonic exchange communicated to the Trustee, in accordance
with such conditions as the Trustee may from time to time prescribe,
to be effective as of the close of the business day on which (or the
first business day following which) such exchange is communicated to
the Trustee; provided, however, that (i) transfers from the Fixed
Income Fund may be elected no more frequently than once in any
calendar quarter, (ii) amounts transferred from the Fixed Income Fund
may not be transferred to the Corporate Bond Fund until 90 days have
elapsed from the date of transfer of such amount out of the Fixed
Income Fund, and (iii) transfers during any Plan Year from a
Participant's interest in the portion of the Company Stock Fund
attributable to Matching Contributions for Plan Years commencing
after December 31, 1984 (restricted interest) shall be limited to 25%
of the value of the Participant's restricted interest (determined
as of a date established by the Trustee which is as soon as
practicable following the Trustee's receipt of all Matching
Contributions for the preceding Plan Year, and after giving effect to
the application of this clause (iii) in prior Plan Years), plus the
portion of such Participant's interest in the Company Stock Fund so
made available for such transfers during any prior Plan Year and not
-93-
so transferred in any prior Plan Year; except that the limitations of
the foregoing clause (iii) shall not apply to a Participant for any

investment elections made in accordance with this Section 5.05,

be given an opportunity to obtain written confirmation of telephonic
instructions to the Trustee."


6. Effective as of August 5, 1993, Section 7.04(a) is amended to read as
follows:

"(a) The amount of the loan (when added to the outstanding balance
of all other loans from the Plan) shall not exceed the lesser of:

(1) $50,000, reduced by the excess (if any) of (A) the highest
outstanding balance of loans from the Plan during the one-year period
ending on the day before the date on which such loan was made, over
(B) the outstanding balance of loans from the Plan on the date on
which such loan was made; or

(2) 50% of the balance of the Participant's Accounts."

prior to his Normal Retirement Date if the Participant's Separation
From Service was by reason of Disability."

Report of Independent Public Accountants





To the Pension and Employee Benefit Plans Committee of Engelhard Corporation:


We have audited the financial statements and the financial
statement schedule of the Engelhard Corporation Savings Plan for Hourly Paid
Employees listed in the index on Page 129 of this Form 11-K. These financial
statements and the financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and the financial statement schedule based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Engelhard Corporation Savings Plan for Hourly Paid Employees as of December
31, 1993 and 1992, and the results of its operations for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the financial
statement schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information required to be included therein.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - Description of the Plan

The Engelhard Corporation Savings Plan for Hourly Paid
Employees (the Plan), effective as of January, 1991, is designed to provide
eligible employees of Engelhard Corporation (the Company) an opportunity to
save part of their income by having the Company reduce their compensation and
contribute the amount of the reduction to the Plan on a tax deferred basis.

The following plan description is provided for general
information purposes. Participants of the Plan should refer to the plan
document for more detailed and complete information.

Eligibility
Except as specifically included or excluded by the Board of Directors of the
Company (the Board), the hourly paid employees of Engelhard Corporation
represented by Locals 223, 237 and 238, Independent Workers of North America,
Locals 1668, 1668A and 1668B of the United Automobile Workers, Local 170 of
the United Steelworkers of America, and, as of January 1, 1994, Local 8-406 of
the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers International Union who have completed at
least one year of service, as defined, are eligible to participate in the Plan
as of the first day of the month in which they meet the year of service
requirement.

Contributions
The Plan permits eligible employees participating in the Plan (the
Participants) to elect to reduce their compensation, as defined, by a whole
percentage thereof, subject to limitations, and to have that amount
contributed to the Plan and the related taxes deferred.

Matching Contributions
The Company will contribute, on a monthly basis and subject to limitations and
exclusions, either cash or common stock of the Company in an amount equal to
10 percent of the amount contributed by the Participants.

Investments
All contributions to the Plan are held and invested by Vanguard Fiduciary
Trust Company (the Trustee). The Trustee maintains four separate investment
funds within the Trust:

a) The Company Stock Fund, which consists of assets invested
or held for investment in the common stock of the Company.
In the event the assets cannot be immediately invested
in Company common stock, the funds are invested in short-
term securities pending investments in Company common
stock.

b) The Fixed Income Fund, which consists of assets invested in
shares of the Vanguard Variable Rate Investment Contract
Trust. In the event the assets cannot be immediately
invested in such shares or deposited as specified above,
the assets are invested in short-term investments at the
discretion of the Pension and Employee Benefit Plans
Committee (the Committee).

c) The Balanced Fund, which consists of assets invested in the
Vanguard Asset Allocation Fund, which invests in stocks,
-109-
bonds and cash reserves for the purpose of maximizing long-
term total return with less volatility than a portfolio of
common stock.

d) The Equity Index Fund, which consists of assets invested in
the Vanguard Quantitative Portfolio, which invests
primarily in common stocks for the purpose of realizing a
total return greater than the Standard & Poor's 500 Index
while maintaining fundamental investment characteristics
similar to such Index.



Participants have the right to elect, subject to restrictions, in which
investment fund or funds their contributions are invested. All matching
contributions are invested in the Company Stock Fund.


The number of Participants in each fund was as follows at December 31:



Participants 1993 1992
--------- ---------


Common Stock Fund 599 462
Fixed Income Fund 396 342
Balanced Fund 136 104
Equity Index Fund 145 118


The total number of Participants in the Plan was less than the sum
of the number of Participants shown above because many were participating in
more than one fund.


The number of units representing Participant interests in each
fund and the related net asset value per unit were as follows at December 31:



Participant interests

Company Stock Fixed Income Balanced Equity Index

--------------- ------------ ----------- -------------



1993:
Units 50,051 1,345,223 16,390 16,286

1992:
Units 27,993 797,216 8,925 8,886
Value per unit $26.06 $1.00 $13.64 $16.30

Vesting
Participants at all times have a fully vested and non-forfeitable interest in
their contributions and in the matching contributions allocated to their
account.

Termination
Although it expects and intends to continue the Plan indefinitely, the Company
has reserved the right of the Board to terminate or amend the Plan.

Distributions and Withdrawals
All distributions and withdrawals from the Plan are made to Participants in a
lump sum cash payment except those amounts distributed from the Company Stock
Fund which may, at the Participant's election, be paid in full shares of the
Company's Common Stock with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares.

Note 2 - Accounting Policies

The accounts of the Plan are maintained on an accrual basis.
Purchases and sales of investments are reflected on a trade date basis.
Assets of the Plan are valued at fair value. Gains and losses on
distributions to participants and sales of investments are based on average
cost. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

Note 3 - Income Tax Status

The Plan and the Trust created thereunder are intended to
qualify under Section 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the Code) and the Plan includes a cash or deferred arrangement
intended to meet the requirements of Section 401(k) of the Code. The Internal
Revenue Service has issued a favorable determination letter as to the Plan's
qualified status under the Code. Amounts contributed to and earned by the Plan
are not taxed to the employee until a distribution from the Plan is made. In
addition, any unrealized appreciation on any shares of common stock of the
Company distributed to an employee is not taxed until the time of disposition
of such shares.

Note 4 - Administrative Expenses

All expenses of the Plan are paid for by the Company.
Investment advisory fees for portfolio management of Vanguard funds are paid
directly from fund earnings. Advisory fees are included in the fund
expense ratio and will not reduce the assets of the Plan. Brokerage
commissions paid to purchase Engelhard Corporation common stock are paid for
by the Company. Effective January 1, 1994, certain administrative fees and
brokerage commissions will be charged against each participant's unit value.


Note 5 - Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Plan to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of investment contracts with
insurance and other financial institutions. The Plan places its investment
contracts with high-credit quality institutions and, by policy, limits the
amount of credit exposure to any one financial institutions.

-111-


Note 6 - Investments

Investments in the Common Stock of the Company are valued at
the readily-available, quoted market price as of the valuation date and
investments in the Vanguard Funds are valued based on the quoted net asset
value (redemption value) of the respective investment company as of the
valuation date.



The net realized gain on disposition of investments was computed as follows:



Company Stock Balanced Equity Index
Fund Fund Fund Combined
---------- ---------- ---------- ----------

Year ended December 31, 1993 -
Amount realized $ 45,185 $ 12,115 $ 19,261
