MEDIA RELEASE
UPDATE ON SOUTH DEEP STRIKE
Johannesburg, 18 November 2010: Gold Fields Limited (Gold Fields) (JSE, NYSE,
NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) notes with concern incidents of intimidation and violence
linked to the ongoing strike action by the National Union of Mineworkers
(NUM) at its South Deep gold mine in South Africa.
A small group of NUM members on Tuesday damaged property and intimidated non-
striking staff both at work and at their near-by homes. Several employees
have been assaulted and injured.
Gold Fields is extremely disturbed by the developments, which have marred
what has to date been a positive engagement between South Deep management and
the NUM. We will monitor the situation closely and will take appropriate
action to protect our employees and property if and when required.
