Sibanye- Stillwater is committed to maintaining uncompromised principles while strengthening its position in the mining industry. 2 Sibanye-Stillwater SECTION 1 GROUP OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION Sibanye-Stillwater (the Group) is a leading international precious metals mining company. The Group owns a portfolio of gold (Au) operations and projects in South Africa, platinum group metal (PGM) operations and projects in South Africa, Zimbabwe and the United States (US), a PGM/copper (Cu) exploration project in Canada, and a Cu/Au project in Argentina. The operating assets and exploration projects are grouped into two regions, namely the Southern Africa (SA) and US regions. SOUTHERN AFRICA REGION UNITED STATES REGION South Africa Zimbabwe United States Canada Argentina Gold assets PGM assets PGM assets PGM assets PGM/copper assets Copper/gold assets Operations Projects Operations Projects Operations Operations Projects Projects • Beatrix • Burnstone • Kroondal (50% attributable) • Hoedspruit • Mimosa • Stillwater • Marathon • Altar (50% attributable, • Driefontein • West Rand Tailings • Rustenburg • Zondernaam • East Boulder Retreatment non-managed) • Kloof • Blue Ridge2 (50% attributable) • Vygenhoek • Southern Orange • Cooke1 Free State 1 Cooke underground operations were put on care and maintenance at the end of October 2017 2 Blue Ridge is on care and maintenance SOUTHERN AFRICA REGION GOLD OPERATIONS The gold operations are made up of gold producing, underground and surface operations in South Africa namely the Driefontein, Kloof and Cooke operations in the West Wits region and Beatrix operation in the southern Free State. The underground Cooke operations were placed on care and maintenance, as a result of non-profitability, at the end of October 2017. Burnstone, in Mpumalanga province, is the most advanced project. In addition to its mining activities, Sibanye-Stillwater owns and manages significant extraction and processing facilities at its operations where gold-bearing ore is treated and beneficiated. Projects in study phase, include: Southern Orange Free State (SOFS) and the West Rand Tailings Retreatment Project (WRTRP). PGM OPERATIONS The PGM operations consist of two managed PGM producing, underground operations and surface treatment facilities in South Africa and a 50% attributable, non-managed, underground operation in Zimbabwe. With the exception of the Rustenburg operations (100% attributable), Kroondal and Mimosa are reported as follows: • Kroondal Pool and Share Agreement (PSA) with Anglo American Platinum (AAP) – 50% attributable • Mimosa – 50% attributable, non-managed • Kroondal Extension – mined under a royalty agreement with AAP of which Sibanye-Stillwater has exclusive mining rights (MRs). These are included in the Kroondal life of mine (LoM) plan and are reported as (50%) attributable to Sibanye-Stillwater • Blue Ridge – 50% attributable, has been on care and maintenance since 2011 The projects forming part of the PGM operations are at various stages of exploration. Platinum Mile, located adjacent to the Paardekraal TSF, is a tailings retreatment facility that recovers PGMs from the tailings streams of the Waterval and Retrofit processing plants. As it is a retreatment operation, no Mineral Resources or Mineral Reserves are declared. Sibanye-Stillwater has a stake of 91.7% in Platinum Mile. UNITED STATES REGION Sibanye-Stillwater has PGM mining and ore beneficiation operations and mining claims (Stillwater operations) which are located in Montana, US. These wholly owned assets include the Stillwater mine (inclusive of the Blitz project), the East Boulder mine, integrated concentrator plants at Stillwater and East Boulder and the surrounding PGM mining claims located near the town of Nye. The metallurgical complex is situated in Columbus town. The US region further includes projects in exploration phase in Canada (Marathon) and Argentina (Altar). All the US region operations and projects are 100% attributable.

  • The Development of Appropriate Procedures Towards and After Closure of Underground Gold Mines from a Water Management Perspective
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF APPROPRIATE PROCEDURES TOWARDS AND AFTER CLOSURE OF UNDERGROUND GOLD MINES FROM A WATER MANAGEMENT PERSPECTIVE Report to the WATER RESEARCH COMMISSION by W Pulles, S Banister and M van Biljon on hehalf of PULLES HOWARD & DE LANGE INCORPORATED RISON GROUNDWATER CONSULTING cc WRC Report No: 1215/1/05 ISBN No: 1-77005-237-2 MARCH 2005 Disclaimer This report emanates from a project financed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and is approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC or the members of the project steering committee, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A need was identified by the Water Research Commission to undertake research into the issue of mine closure planning from a water management perspective in the South African gold mining industry. Initially a project was conceived that was based on undertaking a more detailed study on the development of a coherent and integrated closure planning process for a case study region – the Klerksdorp-Orkney-Stilfontein-Hartebeestfontein (KOSH) area. This approach was eventually abandoned due to the unwillingness of the gold mines in this region (other than Anglogold) to participate in the project. The project methodology was subsequently modified and approved by the project Steering Committee to rather study the complete South African gold mining industry and develop a closure planning methodology that would have application throughout the industry. In support of such an industry-wide study, an assessment would be undertaken of the current status of closure planning contained within the mine EMPRs.

  • Threats and Opportunities for Post-Closure Development in Dolomitic
    Threats and opportunities for post-closure development in dolomitic gold mining areas of the West Rand and Far West Rand (South Africa) – a hydraulic view Part 3: Planning and uncertainty – lessons from history EJ (Leslie) Stoch* and Frank Winde North West University, Potchefstroom Campus, Private Bag X6001, Potchefstroom, 2520, South Africa Abstract Mining is exposed to geological uncertainty as well as to economic forces beyond its control, such as commodity prices and exchange rates that govern profitability. Predictions of future scenarios in mining areas are thus inherently difficult and unreliable. This uncertainty is exacerbated by the long time periods required for pro-active planning of post-mining developments often spanning several decades. This paper presents examples from a gold mining area in the Far West Rand (South Africa) illustrating the variance between predicted scenarios and reality. The facts are embedded in a historical recount of events crucial for the design and approval of mine-closure plans, as well as post-mining development. It is argued that historical arrangements and data need to be understood and preserved in order to avoid the repetition of (costly) mis- takes made in the Far West Rand. Owing to the pivotal role of water in the semi-arid area and the fact that some of the most important groundwater resources of South Africa were impacted on by deep-level mining, this paper in 3 parts adopted a largely hydraulic perspective. The loss of ‘institutional memory’ and local expertise has been identified as the main threat to planning. Part 3 presents an attempt to counteract such loss by providing an account of the events of 5 decades, as wit- nessed by the first author.

Introduction and historical background The eastern catchment of the Mooi River, also known as the Wonderfonteinspruit, has been identified in a number of studies as the site of significant radioactive and other pollution, generally attributed to the mining and processing of uraniferous gold ores in the area. With the establishment of West Rand Consolidated in 1887 gold mining reached the Wonderfonteinspruit catchment only one year after the discovery of gold on the Witwatersrand. By 1895 five more gold mines had started operations in the (non-dolomitic) headwater region of the Wonderfonteinspruit as the westernmost part of the West Rand goldfield.
