Certain statements in this document constitute “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the US
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
These forward-looking statements, including, among others, those relating to Sibanye’s
future business prospects, revenues and income, wherever they may occur in this document
and the exhibits to this document, are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of
the senior management and directors of Sibanye, and involve a number of known and
unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or
achievements of the Group to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking
statements. As a consequence, these forward-looking statements should be considered in
light of various important factors, including those set forth in this document. Important factors
that could cause the actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained
in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, economic, business, political
and social conditions in South Africa, Zimbabwe and elsewhere; changes in assumptions
underlying Sibanye’s estimation of its current Mineral Reserves and Resources; the ability to
achieve anticipated efficiencies and other cost savings in connection with past and future
acquisitions, as well as existing operations; the success of Sibanye’s business strategy,
exploration and development activities; the ability of Sibanye to comply with requirements
that it operate in a sustainable manner; changes in the market price of gold, platinum group
metals (“PGMs”) and/or uranium; the occurrence of hazards associated with underground

industrial action; the availability, terms and deployment of capital or credit; changes in
government regulations, particularly environmental regulations and new legislation affecting
water, mining, mineral rights and business ownership, including any interpretations thereof
which may be subject to dispute; the outcome and consequence of any potential or pending
litigation or regulatory proceedings or other environmental, health and safety issues; power
disruptions, constraints and cost increases; supply chain shortages and increases in the
price of production inputs; fluctuations in exchange rates, currency devaluations, inflation
and other macro-economic monetary policies; the occurrence of temporary stoppages of
mines for safety incidents and unplanned maintenance; Sibanye’s ability to hire and retain
senior management or sufficient technically skilled employees, as well as its ability to
achieve sufficient representation of historically disadvantaged South Africans’ in its
management positions; failure of Sibanye’s information technology and communications
systems; the adequacy of Sibanye’s insurance coverage; any social unrest, sickness or
natural or man-made disaster at informal settlements in the vicinity of some of Sibanye’s
