LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS                                                          
Dear shareholder                                                                
Due to a combination of the strength of the Rand against the US Dollar and a 7% 
decrease in gold production, net operating income declined by US$ 18 million    
(R201.8 million) this quarter. In addition, Crown Gold Recoveries (Pty) Limited 
(in which DRD has a 40% interest) recorded a loss due to the underground fire at
ERPM. DRD"s share of the after tax loss from this associate was US$ 2.3 million 
(R 18.6 million).                                                               
While the US Dollar gold price increased by 8% to US$ 348 per ounce, the        
strength in the Rand caused a 6% reduction in the Rand gold price received. In  
spite of the lower gold production, cash unit cost was well contained,          
increasing by 3% in Rand terms. Translating to US Dollar terms, however, cash   
unit cost was US$ 329 per ounce, which is around the current spot gold price    
level.                                                                          
Overall performance                                                             
North West Operations (the Harties and Buffels mines) reported a cash operating 
loss of US$ 2.4 million (R 20 million) for the quarter. An Eskom power failure  
caused an 11 day interruption to production at Buffels" Pioneer Shaft with a    
consequent loss of 2 890 ounces (90 kilograms) of gold at a cost of US$ 1.5     
million (R13 million). Due to depletion of reserves, the open-cast production at
Harties will cease in the current quarter.  Harties has consistently failed to  
meet its targets and now, due to the lower gold price, it has been necessary to 
take further corrective action to "right size" costs with production across the 
entire North West Operations. Management has given notice to the National Union 
of Mineworkers of its intention to retrench some 1 000 employees. In addition,  
in order to reduce overheads, we have rationalised services between North West  
and Blyvoor. Both operations will now report to Mr Deon van der Mescht (formerly
General Manager Blyvoor) and services will be shared between the operations     
wherever possible. Work on bringing all ore feed to a single, upgraded          
metallurgical plant at Harties is underway, and will reduce cost by some US$ 3  
per ton (R 28 per ton).                                                         
Gold production at Blyvoor was consistent with the previous quarter and         
underground cash unit costs declined by 1% in Rand terms. The new slimes dam    
project has begun and it is expected to be completed by December 2003 at a      
capital cost of US$ 8 million (R 60 million).                                   
Tolukuma had a much-improved quarter, recording a cash operating profit of US$  
1.6 million (R 13.7 million). Gold production in March reached 7 312 ounces (219
kilograms) due to the high grade Tinabar vein coming on stream. Cash unit cost  
reduced to US$ 265 per ounce. These results now appear to be sustainable for the
foreseeable future.                                                             
Associates and Investments                                                      
As previously reported, the results of Crown Gold Recoveries (Pty) Limited were 
adversely affected by the underground fire at ERPM, which resulted in the loss  
of 4 180 ounces (130 kilograms) of gold production at a cost of US$ 1.8 million 
(R 15 million). Production is now returning to normal levels. While ERPM"s costs
are clearly unacceptable in the short term, efficiencies are improving with a   
doubling of output per total employee costed to 18 tons being achieved. The     
Cason Dump project has been deferred due to cash constraints.                   
DRD increased its shareholding in Emperor Gold Mines to 19.81%. The total cost  
of this investment now stands at AUD 16.8 million, which has been accounted for 
at fair value. Emperor"s results for the March quarter showed an increase in    
gold production of 14% over the previous quarter to 30 206 ounces at a reduced  
loss of US$ 0.8 million (AUD 1.4 million).                                      
Financial                                                                       
Gold revenue was marginally lower than the previous quarter. However, an        
increase in cash operating costs in US$ terms due to the strengthening of the   
Rand, together with a 36% decrease in the profit on financial instruments,      
resulted in a 60% reduction in net operating income to US$ 12.0 million for the 
quarter. Net profit attributable to shareholders decreased to US$ 3.2 million   
from US$ 22.5 million the previous quarter. Cash and cash equivalents were US$  
63.1 million at the end of the period with the current ratio at 132% compared to
200% the previous quarter. Borrowings, excluding the convertible bond, reduced  
to US$ 5.5 million from US$ 10.2 million. Fully diluted earnings per share were 
1.7 US cents per share.                                                         
Outlook                                                                         
While we remain optimistic about the prognosis for the US$ gold price, in the   
short term the influence of the Rand/Dollar exchange rate will be critical. The 
surprising appreciation of the Rand has been caused partly by Dollar weakness,  
but has been exacerbated by the tight monetary discipline imposed by the SA     
Reserve Bank. This has attracted short term money into the Rand at a time when  
policy should have been more benign. Such a policy would appear to be at odds   
with the nation"s reliance on export growth, the attainment of full employment  
and social redistribution. Far from bringing money into the country, it is more 
likely to deter real fixed investment in wealth-creating activities such as gold
mining.                                                                         
The Government has announced the future imposition of a royalty of 3% on the    
revenue of gold producers. This will be an additional cost and will serve to    
sterilize gold reserves, reduce the attraction of investing in gold mining and  
result in lost jobs. DRD intends to voice its opposition to this additional tax 
burden to Government through its membership of the South African Mining         
Development Association (SAMDA).                                                
I would like to draw shareholders attention to a separate Letter from your Board
dealing with corporate governance matters and the actions we have taken to      
recover funds due to shareholders through legal processes. This is available on 
the company"s website : http://www.durbans.com. It will not have escaped the    
attention of shareholders that the many comments recently aired in the media    
have come from the very past directors, employees, consultants or their         
immediate families who have been affected by these various actions. The company 
will seek justice in the appropriate courts, and not by entering into biased    
debate in public.                                                               
Staff changes                                                                   
After a long association with Durban Deep, Frik Coetzee will retire as          
Operations Director due to ill health. We wish him well for the future. Neil    
Pretorius will join the company shortly, from private practice, as its in-house 
legal adviser.                                                                  
These appointments, together with the operational changes highlighted above,    
mean we have the correct balance of skills at Board level and a young and       
enthusiastic management team prepared to deliver results into the future.
