HARMONY TO RECOMMENCE WAFI-GOLPU PERMITTING DISCUSSIONS

Johannesburg, Tuesday, 11 February 2020. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (“Harmony” and/or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that it will recommence discussions with the Papua New Guinea government on the Special Mining Lease for the Wafi-Golpu Project.

The resumption of the discussions comes a year after support for the Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”), signed between the state and the Wafi-Golpu Joint Venture (“WGJV”) on 11 December 2018, was withdrawn.

The WGJV, an unincorporated joint venture between subsidiaries of Harmony and Newcrest Limited, today received notification from Papua New Guinea’s Minister for Mining that the judicial review proceeding brought by the Governor of Morobe Province was dismissed by the National Court.

“The WGJV is well placed to resume discussions with the PNG Government, given the constructive progress already made on the various agreements required for completion,” said Harmony CEO Peter Steenkamp.

“We believe Wafi-Golpu is a game changer for Harmony - both in terms of replacing our ounces and increasing margins,” Steenkamp said.

Ends.
