MEDIA RELEASE
GOLD FIELDS GUIDANCE FOR
JUNE 2011 QUARTER
Johannesburg, 5 July 2011: Gold Fields Limited (Gold Fields)
(JSE, NYSE, NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) today announced that
attributable Group production for the June quarter (Q2 2011) is
expected to be approximately 872,000 gold equivalent ounces, which
is 5% higher than the previous quarter (Q1 2011 - 830,000oz).
During Q2 2011 production from the South Africa Region was
impacted by six public holidays as well as two significant seismic-
related accidents at the KDC (Kloof Driefontein Complex) mine,
which resulted in production stoppages due to safety interventions.
In the Australasia Region production was affected by a week-long,
unplanned mill-outage at St Ives. Remedial actions in respect of the
seismic-related accidents and the unplanned mill-outage were
satisfactorily completed during the latter part of Q2 2011.
Total cash costs and notional cash expenditure (NCE) are expected
to be approximately US$815/oz (R175,000/kg) and US$1,185/oz
(R260,000/kg) respectively.
The full results for Q2 2011 and first half 2011 will be published on
Thursday, 11 August 2011.
