Harmony’s production guidance for the March 2014 quarter
Johannesburg. Wednesday, 26 March 2014: Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (“Harmony” or the “Company”) advises that gold production for the quarter ended March 2014 will be 12% to 15% lower than the previous quarter.
Production stoppages at Doornkop due to the accident in February 2014, flooding of the shaft bottom at Joel and a slower turnaround at Kusasalethu have contributed to lower production quarter on quarter. Production at Steyn 2 was suspended six months earlier than its original life of mine plan, due to the safety risk that seismicity in the working areas posed.
Harmony’s results for the quarter ended 31 March 2014 will be released via webcast on Tuesday, 6 May 2014. Please refer to our website, www.harmony.co.za/investors, for dial-in and webcast details.
