MEDIA RELEASE
KDC EAST MINE RESUMES PRODUCTION
Johannesburg, 6 November 2012: Gold Fields Limited (Gold
Fields) (JSE, NYSE, NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) is pleased to announce
that employees this morning returned to work at its KDC East Mine
(formerly Kloof) to resume production after a 23-day strike. All three
of Gold Fields’ operating mines in South Africa are now back in
production.
The mine had dismissed 8,100 employees on October 23 for
participation in the unlawful strike over the preceding nine days.
However, after a deal with the National Union of Mineworkers, the
vast majority of them were reinstated to their previous positions. All
employees are also eligible for benefits under the Chamber of Mines
Settlement Agreement concluded on 25 October 2012.
