Talas Copper Gold Project


Johannesburg, 24 May 2013: Gold Fields Limited (Gold Fields) (JSE, NYSE, NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) today
announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Gold Fields Orogen Holding BVI Ltd, has appointed
Jefferies International as exclusive financial advisor to assist with a review of potential strategic
alternatives in relation to the Talas Copper Gold Project in Kyrgyzstan.

The strategic review will examine and consider opportunities available to the company with the
objective of further enhancing shareholder value. The strategic review will not necessarily result in any
specific strategic or financial transaction and no timetable has been set for its completion. Gold Fields
will keep shareholders updated on the strategic review process and any material developments.

About the Talas Copper Gold Project:

The Talas Copper Gold Project (100% owned by Gold Fields) is situated in the Central Asian Orogenic
Belt (CAOB) in Kyrgyzstan, which is widely recognised as the second largest gold province by
endowment outside of the Witwatersrand. The CAOB region is home to some of the world’s largest
copper gold deposits, including Murantau (110 million ounces of gold-equivalent), Almalyk (80 million
ounces of gold-equivalent) and Oyu Tolgoi (100 billion pounds of copper, 60 million ounces of gold).

As of 31 December 2012, the Talas Copper Gold Project contained mineral resources of 1.7 billion
pounds of copper and 6.7 million ounces of gold. Gold Fields also owns three neighbouring
prospecting licenses in the Tien Shan gold belt covering 32,150 hectares.
