FATAL ACCIDENT AT SOUTH DEEP
Johannesburg, 12 September 2016: Gold Fields Limited (Gold
Fields) (JSE, NYSE: GFI) regrets to announce that an employee at
the South Deep mine in South Africa lost his life in a fall-of-ground
accident on Saturday following a -1.5 magnitude seismic event
.

South Deep management immediately suspended all destress
mining activities and notified the Department of Mineral Resources.
Due to ongoing seismic activity in the area, the in-loco inspection has
been deferred until later today.

Nick Holland, Chief Executive Officer of Gold Fields, said: “Our
heartfelt condolences go out to the family, friends and colleagues of
the deceased. Management will do everything possible to support
them in this hour of need.”

“While this is the first fatality at South Deep since May 2015, our
review will reassess all safety protocols, procedures and standards,”
Mr Holland added.
