It also wishes to welcome Mr Philip Kotze as his successor, with immediate effect. Mr Kotze is independent. Mr Adam Fleming, chairman, commented as follows: "Marc Watchorn was instrumental in co-founding the company in 2003 and has played a key role in Wits Gold`s subsequent progress, specifically in the upgrading of the status of the Company`s significant resource base and in developing our two major mining projects in the southern Free State, Bloemhoek and the shallow DBM whose scoping study has just been released. We are most grateful for his important contribution to the growth of the Company and wish him well in his new endeavours. With Wits Gold now embarking on the development of two potential new gold mines, we are particularly pleased that Philip Kotze, with his previous extensive mining experience at Anglo Gold, Harmony and Anooraq Resources, has agreed to join us." 1 August 2011 Sponsor PricewaterhouseCoopers Corporate Finance (Proprietary) Limited (Registration number 1970/003711/07) For further information please contact Mr Philip Kotze Mr Hethen Hira Chief Executive Officer Investor Relations philip@witsgold.com hethenh@witsgold.com Tel: +27 11 832 1749 Tel: + 27 11 832 1749 Date: 01/08/2011 09:35:01 Supplied by www.sharenet.co.za Produced by the JSE SENS Department.
