FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provided
by Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to our financial condition, results of operations,
business strategies, operating efficiencies, competitive positions, growth opportunities for existing
services, plans and objectives of management, markets for stock and other matters. These include
all statements other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation, any statements

"predict", "continue" or similar expressions or the negative thereof.

These forward-looking statements, including, among others, those relating to our future business
prospects, revenues and income, wherever they may occur in this report and the exhibits to this
report, are essentially estimates reflecting the best judgment of our senior management and involve
a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results 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 report.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections
contained in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation: overall economic and
business conditions in South Africa, Papua New Guinea, Australia and elsewhere, estimates of future
earnings, and the sensitivity of earnings to the gold and other metals prices, estimates of future gold
and other metals production and sales, estimates of future cash costs, estimates of future cash flows,
and the sensitivity of cash flows to the gold and other metals prices, statements regarding future
debt repayments, estimates of future capital expenditures, the success of our business strategy,
development activities and other initiatives, estimates of reserves statements regarding future
exploration results and the replacement of reserves, the ability to achieve anticipated efficiencies
and other cost savings in connection with past and future acquisitions, fluctuations in the market
price of gold, the occurrence of hazards associated with underground and surface gold mining,
the occurrence of labor disruptions, power cost increases as well as power stoppages, fluctuations
and usage constraints, supply chain shortages and increases in the prices of production imports,
availability, terms and deployment of capital, changes in government regulation, particularly mining
rights and environmental regulation, fluctuations in exchange rates, the adequacy of the Group's
insurance coverage and socio-economic or political instability in South Africa and Papua New Guinea
and other countries in which we operate.

For a more detailed discussion of such risks and other factors (such as availability of credit or other
sources of financing), see the Company's latest Integrated Annual Report on Form 20-F which is on
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the Company's other Securities and
Exchange Commission filings. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or release
any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
this annual report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Harmony is driven by excellence. We have a proactive approach
to safety and health, with excellent operational and management
teams, a world-class exploration team, we lead environmental
rehabilitation in South Africa and we continued to differentiate
ourselves through quality grade management, increasing
underground grade for the fourth consecutive year – this year by
6% to 5.02g/t.

Our revenue increased by 19% on the back of a 21% increase
in the R/kg gold price, combined with achieving our production
guidance of approximately 1.1 million ounces. Net debt was reduced
by 54% to R1.08 billion (61% to US$74 million).
Having turned around the previous year's headline
loss to headline earnings of 221 SA cents (15 US$ cents), we felt
it prudent to declare a dividend of 50 SA cents (refer to dividend
notice). Harmony remains well positioned to benefit
from a strong R/kg gold price.

We continue to have a positive view on the strength of the gold
price, with cash certainty being key in times of extreme market
volatility. The gold hedge was a necessary short-term step to secure
margins at some of our higher-cost operations and creates certainty
for a portion of our future cash flows. It enables us to further reduce
our debt and strengthen our balance sheet.

SAFETY

Sadly, in spite of recording an overall improvement in our safety
performance for the year, we had ten fatalities – nine in South Africa (SA) 
and one in Papua NewGuinea (PNG), compared with nine fatalities in the previous year
(eight in SA and one in PNG).

Year on year, our lost time and reportable injury frequency rates
improved and are in line with the industry's milestone requirements.
During the year – to further assist management in ensuring that
safety standards are followed and regulations are adhered to, and
to increase awareness regarding safe behaviour – we established a
second-level safety assurance team, reporting to our central safety
structure. Training and safety awareness campaigns continue at all
of our operations.

YEAR-ON-YEAR OPERATIONAL RESULTS

Our total gold production for FY16 increased by 142kg (0.4%) to
33 655kg, compared to 33 513kg in FY15. Gold production in South
Africa increased by 4% year on year, if the Target 3 operation 
(place on care and maintenance)in FY15 is excluded.

The following operations increased their gold production year on
year:

- Phakisa, by 870kg (28%), as a result of milling 75 000t (12%)
  more and increasing recovered grade by 14% to 5.81g/t
  (FY15: 5.10g/t);
- Tshepong, by 753kg (18%), as a result of a 10% (96 000t) rise
  in milled tonnes and a 7% improvement in recovered grade to
  4.62g/t (FY15: 4.31g/t);
- Bambanani, by 105kg (4%), as a result of a 2% increase in
  recovered grade to 12.99g/t (FY15: 12.70g/t);
- Doornkop, by 67kg (3%), due to a 4% (27 000t) increase in
  tonnes milled and in spite of a 2% decrease in recovered grade
  to 4.33g/t;
- Joel, by 20kg, through an increase in recovered grade of 2% to
  4.20g/t, while volume remained stable year on year;
- Unisel, by 9kg, a consequence of a 2% (7 000t) increase in tonnes
  milled, with volume and grade remaining stable;
- the dumps, by 203kg (24%), through improved tonnes milled
  (13%) and recovered grade (9%).

The following operations reported lower gold production for the
year:

- Hidden Valley was down 686kg (23%), due to a 19% decrease in
  recovered grade to 1.31g/t (FY15: 1.61g/t) and a 5% decrease in
  tonnes. Some 33 production days were lost during the September
  2015 quarter when operations were suspended due to a fatality
  in July 2015. The December 2015 quarter was affected by poor
  grade and road closures, which restricted mining activity.
- Target 1 was 437kg (11%) lower due to a 10% decrease in
  recovered grade to 4.58g/t (FY15: 5.11g/t). The operation was
  adversely affected by safety stoppages during the March 2016 quarter.
- Kalgold was down 95kg (8%), a result of recovered grade
  decreasing by 7% to 0.75g/t (FY15: 0.81g/t) and in spite of tonnes
  milled increasing by 1% (7 000t).
- Kusasalethu, 90kg (2%) lower, was negatively affected by a
  planned stoppage to upgrade its infrastructure. A 26% (240 000t)
  decrease in tonnes milled however was partially offset by a 33%
  increase in the recovered grade to 5.78g/t (FY15: 4.35g/t).
- Phoenix was down 63kg (7%) due to a 14% decrease in recovered
  grade to 0.12g/t (FY15: 0.14g/t), which was partially offset by a
  4% (220 000t) increase in tonnes milled.
- Masimong was 31kg down due to having milled 20 000t (3%) less
  than in FY15.

Target 3 was placed on care and maintenance during FY15 and
produced no gold in FY16.

YEAR-ON-YEAR FINANCIAL RESULTS

Higher gold production, together with a higher average Rand gold
price received, delivered a 19% increase in revenue of R18.3 billion (decrease by 6% to US$1.27 billion).
The average Rand gold price increased by 21% to R544 984/kg
(R449 570/kg in FY15), due to a 27% weakening of the Rand
against the US dollar to US$/R14.50 (offsetting the 4 % decrease in the average gold price received to US1 169/oz).

Production profit increased to R5.084 billion, up 81% from
R2.802 billion in FY15 (increased by 43% to US$350 million), after accounting for a 7% increase in cash
operating costs (R821 million) (decrease of US$171 million or 16%). Operating costs were higher due
to increases in labour costs, electricity and contractor costs at our
South African operations.

Overall, cost increases were lower than inflation, with all-in sustaining cost
(AISC) for all operations increasing by only 3% to R467 526/kg,
compared to R453 044/kg in FY15 (decreased by 19% to US$1 003/oz compared to US$1 231/oz in FY15).

Annual adjustments recorded include the net reversal of an
impairment of R43 million (US$3 million) (which consists of a reversal of impairment
of R738 million (US$50 million) on Doornkop, offset by an impairment of R466 million (US$32 million) 
on Hidden Valley and R229 million (US$16 million) on Masimong) and a rehabilitation
provision change in estimate credit of R110 million (US$7 million).

In FY16 a net profit of R949 million (US$64 million) was recorded compared to a
net loss of R4.5 billion (US$374 million) in FY15 and consequently, headline earnings
amounted to 221 SA cents per share (15 US cents per share) compared to a headline loss of
189 SA cents per share (16 US cents per share) for FY15.

HEDGING ACTIVITY

Currency hedging

Since February 2016, Harmony initiated and maintained a foreign exchange hedging programme. Hedging is in the form of zero cost collars,
which establish a minimum (floor) and maximum (cap) Rand/US dollar exchange rate at which to convert US dollars to Rands. The nominal
value of the hedging contracts as at 30 June 2016 was US$500 million. The hedging contracts are spread over a 12 month period, and are
summarised as follows:
                                       H1 FY17                       H2 FY17   
Sold call options

Lowest strike price                     R17.93                        R16.92   
Highest strike price                    R19.08                        R19.08   
Purchased put option                                                           
Nominal                         US$250 million                US$250 million   
Average strike price                    R15.56                        R15.53   
Lowest strike price                     R15.40                        R15.10   
Highest strike price                    R15.80                        R16.10   

Gold hedging

To create cash certainty, we entered into short-term gold forward sale contracts during July 2016 for 432 000oz over a period of 24 months,
representing approximately 20% of our total production. The sharp increase in the R/kg gold price provided us with an
opportunity to lock in 20% of our gold sales at a very attractive average rate of approximately R682 000/kg. The breakdown of gold forward
sale contracts entered into post year end are as follows:

                                             H1                          H2   
FY17   Kgs                                3 049                       3 360   
       Average R/kg                    R645 121                    R666 888   
FY18   Kgs                                3 360                       3 360   
       Average R/kg                    R692 836                    R720 374   
FY19   Kgs                                  311                               
       Average R/kg                    R725 499                               

The limited size and duration of the hedge means shareholders retain full upside exposure on 80% of Harmony's gold production for
the next two years, after which they will have 100% exposure to the gold price.

MINERAL RESOURCES AND RESERVES

Harmony owns significant gold ore deposits. Attributable gold
equivalent mineral resources as declared at 30 June 2016, were
105.2Moz, a 4.6% decrease year on year. The total gold contained
in the mineral resources at the South African operations represents
55.2% of the company's total, with the Papua New Guinea (PNG)
operations representing 44.8% of Harmony's total gold and gold
equivalent mineral resources.

Our attributable gold and gold equivalent mineral reserves
amounted to 36.9Moz of gold, a 13.3% decrease year on year.
The gold reserve ounces in South Africa represent 45.4% while the
PNG gold and gold equivalent ounces represent 54.6% of our total
mineral reserves. See below for our resources and reserves
statement.

GOLPU

The joint venture is pursuing a conventional process of applying
for a special mining lease under the PNG Mining Act, targeted
to be lodged in the first quarter of FY17.

EXPLORATION

Kili Teke

Worldwide, new greenfield copper-gold discoveries are scarce. Our
exploration strategy in PNG remains to create long term value for
shareholders by enhancing and developing our world-class portfolio
of copper-gold assets, at industry leading discovery costs – less than
$US10 per equivalent gold ounce.

Kili Teke is a prolific complex with multiple mineralised intrusive
events. The revised mineral resource estimate for Kili Teke comprises
222Mt at 0.35% copper, 0.25 g/t gold and 170 ppm molybdenum
containing 782 000t copper, 1.75Moz of gold and 38 000t
molybdenum. The updated resource has grown 50% to 6Moz on
a gold equivalent basis(1) compared to the November 2015 model.
Refer to the website (www.harmony.co.za) for a detailed annexure
related to the Kili Teke resource update.

(1)Gold equivalent based on US$1 150 per ounce gold, and US$3 per pound
   of copper and assumes 100% recovery of all metals.

South Africa

Exploration drilling is planned at Tshepong, Phakisa, Doornkop,
Target 1 and Kalgold.

NEW DRAFT MINING CHARTER

A new draft of the broad-based socio-economic empowerment charter
for the South African mining industry (Mining Charter) was published
by the Minister of Mineral Resources on 15 April 2016. We are actively
participating in the discussions on the provisions of the new charter to
ensure that the interests of all our stakeholders are protected.

STAKEHOLDER RELATIONS

Stronger margins helped us to continue to meet our social and
environmental commitments, substantiating our holistic approach to
mining in the interests of all of our stakeholders and our status as a
responsible miner. Harmony has – and continues to – make a difference:

- to shareholders – creating value by operating profitably and
  growing our margins
- to our employees – ensuring that they are safe and healthy
- to communities – participating in local economic development,
  limiting and mitigating our impact on the environment
- to government – contributing to the national fiscus

By conducting our business efficiently, profitably and sustainably,
Harmony creates shared value for all stakeholders, enabling it to
contribute to improved education, build infrastructure, provide
healthcare, stimulate local economies and rehabilitate the environment.

OBJECTIVE FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS

Maintaining and growing our margins efficiently are essential to
sustaining our business and meeting our strategic objectives.

Harmony has shown that it can successfully operate as a gold
miner and explorer in both South Africa and PNG. The board has
supported a three-year strategy in which we plan to grow Harmony's
production to approximately 1.5Moz, producing gold at an all-in sustaining cost of
$950/oz, through:

- growing, nurturing and developing our core assets
- harvesting operations that are high cost and have a short life
- developing Golpu Stage 1
- expanding in South Africa, into Africa and PNG
- assessing organic growth opportunities

In the next year, we plan to produce approximately 1 050 000
ounces at about $1 100/oz (~R495 000/kg at an exchange rate of
R14.00). Through operational excellence, adhering to our company
values, applying mining discipline, further increasing our productivity,
creating an enabling environment and grade cut-off, we believe that
the guidance is realistic and achievable. We will not mine areas that
are unsafe or at grades lower than planned.

Our management teams are geared to deliver. On executive level,
I am well supported by an experienced, competent team and on
operational level, my two chief operating officers will ensure safe,
profitable production. I have no doubt that Harmony's current
momentum will be upheld.

Harmony has a strong investment case, being one of the few gold
mining companies increasing its underground grade, with one of the
lowest debt:ebitda ratios in the gold mining industry making a real
and lasting difference in the communities adjacent to our mines and
growing our gold–copper ounces at industry leading discovery costs.

SUMMARY UPDATE OF HARMONY'S MINERAL RESOURCES AND MINERAL RESERVES
AS AT 30 JUNE 2016

Harmony's statement of mineral resources and mineral reserves as
at 30 June 2016 is produced in accordance with the South African
Code for the Reporting of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves
(SAMREC) and the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration
Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC). It should
be noted that the mineral resources are reported inclusive of the
mineral reserves.

This report provides a summary of the update, while the detailed
statement of the mineral resources and mineral reserves will be
published in the Integrated Report on 26 October 2016, which will
be available at www.harmony.co.za/investors. Refer to the website
(www.harmony.co.za) for the updated reserves and resources tables
as at 30 June 2016.

Harmony uses certain terms in the summary such as 'measured',
'indicated' and 'inferred' resources, which the United States'
Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines strictly prohibit
companies registered in the United States from including in their
filings with the commission. United States investors are urged to

Introduction

Gold mining and gold production are central to Harmony's existence.
Maintaining and growing our margins efficiently are essential to
sustaining our business and meeting our strategic objectives. This
includes delivering safely on our operational plans, reducing costs,
improving productivity and maximising revenue.

We are devoted to improving the company's operational
performance. Our values are entrenched in everything we do –
safety, accountability, achievement, being connected and honest –
and they inform our decisions and our actions. Realistic planning
supports our strategy to optimise assets – our ore bodies, our
infrastructure and our people. This will ensure safer, more profitable
production. Our life of mine plans for financial year 2017 were done
in line with this approach.

Harmony – Total

The company's attributable gold and gold equivalent mineral
resources are declared as 105.2Moz as at 30 June 2016, a 4.6%
decrease year on year from the 110.3Moz declared as at 30 June
2015. The total gold contained in the mineral resources at the South
African operations represents 55.2% of the company total, with
the Papua New Guinea (PNG) operations representing 44.8% of
Harmony's total gold and gold equivalent mineral resources as at 30
June 2016.

Harmony's attributable gold and gold equivalent mineral reserves
amounts to 36.9Moz, a 13.3% decrease from the 42.6Moz declared
at 30 June 2015. The gold reserve ounces in South Africa represent
45.4% while the PNG gold and gold equivalent ounces represent
54.6% of Harmony's total mineral reserves as at 30 June 2016.

SOUTH AFRICA

South African underground operations

The company's mineral resources at the South African underground
operations as at 30 June 2016 are 48.6Moz (162.1Mt at 9.32g/t), a
decrease of 19.9% year on year from the 60.6Moz (217.2Mt at 8.68g/t)
declared as at 30 June 2015. This decrease is mainly due to depletion
and reduced resources at Unisel and Masimong. There was also a
reduction at Doornkop due to the low grade South Reef to the east of the
mine that has been removed from the declaration.

The company's mineral reserves at the South African underground
operations as at 30 June 2016 are 9.7Moz (54.1Mt at 5.55g/t),
a decrease of 35.7% year on year from the 15.0Moz (80.3Mt at
5.82g/t) declared as at 30 June 2015. The decrease is due to normal depletion
and the revised Kusasalethu life of mine plan. The shorter life of 
mine plan at Kusasalethu optimises the mine's cash flow at a higher
grade and creates a much stronger margin, providing us with 
the option to consider the feasibility to
access the high grade VCR payshoot below infrastructure in the future.

South African surface operations, including Kalgold

The company's mineral resources at the South African surface
operations as at 30 June 2016 are 9.5Moz (1 085.2Mt at 0.27g/t) which
is materially the same as at the 30 June 2015 (1 082.3Mt at 0.27g/t).
The company's mineral reserves at the South African surface operations
as at 30 June 2016 are 7.1Moz (840.3Mt at 0.26g/t), in line with the
7.1Moz (835.9Mt at 0.26g/t) declared at 30 June 2015.

PAPUA NEW GUINEA (PNG)

Papua New Guinea operations

The company's attributable gold and gold equivalent mineral
resources at the PNG operations as at 30 June 2016 are 47.1Moz,
an increase of 17.1% year on year from the 40.2Moz declared as at
30 June 2015. This increase is due to resources declared at Kili Teke
and increases due to gold equivalent ratios that changed due to new
long term commodity prices used.

The company's gold and gold equivalent mineral reserves at the PNG
operations as at 30 June 2016 are 20.2Moz, a decrease of 1.8%
year on year from the 20.5Moz declared as at 30 June 2015.

ASSUMPTIONS

-   In converting the mineral resources to mineral reserves, the
    following commodity prices and exchange rates were applied:
-   A gold price of US$1 150/oz
-   An exchange rate of R/US$12.85
-   The above parameters resulted in a rand gold price of R475 000/kg
    for the South African assets.
-   The Hidden Valley mine and Golpu project in the Morobe Mining
    Joint Venture used commodity prices of US$ 1 150/oz Au,
    US$15.00/oz Ag, US$5.00/lb Mo and US$3.00/lb Cu at an
    exchange rate of US$0.80 per A$.
-   Gold equivalent ounces are calculated assuming US$1 150/oz Au, 
    US$3.00/lb Cu and US$15.00/oz Ag, and assuming a 100%
    recovery for all metals.

Harmony's South African mineral resources and reserves at
Tshepong, Phakisa, Kalgold and the group statement were
independently reviewed by The Mineral Corporation for compliance
to SAMREC. The mineral resources of the Hidden Valley operation
were independently reviewed by SRK Consulting Engineers
and Scientists and Golpu was independently reviewed by AMC
Consultants Pty Ltd for compliance with the standards set out
in JORC.

*   Represents Harmony's equity portion of 50%.
**  In instances where individual deposits may contain multiple valuable commodities with a reasonable expectation of being recovered (for example gold and
    copper in a single deposit) Harmony computes a gold equivalent to more easily assess the value of the deposit against gold-only mines. Harmony does this
    by calculating the value of each of the deposits commodities, then dividing the product by the price of gold. For example, the gold equivalent ounces for the
    copper portion of a deposit would be calculated as follows: (copper pounds x copper price per pound)/gold price per ounce. All gold equivalent calculations
    are done using metal prices and parameters as stipulated above.

  (1) The net reversal of impairment of long-lived assets in the June 2016 period consists of a reversal of impairment of R738 million on Doornkop, offset by
      an impairment of R466 million on Hidden Valley and R229 million on Masimong. The June 2015 impairment consists of an impairment of R2.11 billion
      on Hidden Valley, R1.04 billion on Doornkop, R278 million on Phakisa and R43 million on Freddies 9. Refer to note 6 for further details.
  (2) Included in the total for the June 2016 period is a credit of R110 million relating to the change in estimate following the annual reassessment.
  (3) Due to the low share price at the time of the awarding of performance shares (PS) for 2015, a large number of PS were allocated to employees. The
      increase in the share price between the award date and the approval date resulted in an increase in the IFRS 2 Share-based payment fair value per
      award measurement.

  a) Refer to note 8 for details on the US$ revolving credit facility.
  b) During February 2016, Harmony entered into foreign exchange hedging contracts (forex hedging contracts) in the form of zero cost
     collars, which establish a minimum (floor) and maximum (cap) Rand/US Dollar exchange rate at which to convert US dollars to
     Rands. The nominal value of open forex hedging contracts at 30 June 2016 is US$500 million. The hedging contracts are spread
     over a 12 month period with a weighted average cap price of US$1=R18.27 and weighted average floor price of US$1=R15.55. The
     mark-to-market of the derivative asset is R369 million as at 30 June 2016 due to the strengthening of the Rand exchange rate against
     the US dollar since the conclusion of the forex hedging contracts. As we do not apply hedge accounting, the gains have been
     recorded in the income statement.
  
4 Taxation

  Normal taxation expense increased during the year ended 30 June 2016 due to the increased profitability at most of the South African
  operations and the inclusion of the unrealised derivative gain of R369 million in determining taxable income.

  The deferred tax expense increased during 2016 due to the net increase in the deferred tax rates year on year and utilisation of assessed
  losses and unredeemed capital by the South African companies. The weighted average deferred tax rates for most South African
  companies increased as a result of increased forecast profitability of these operations.

6 Property, plant and equipment

  (a)    Impairment/reversal of impairment
         One of the most significant assumptions that influence the Group's operations' life-of-mine plans and therefore impairment is the
         expected gold price. During this year's planning and testing, commodity price and exchange rate assumptions as per the table below
         were used. Post-tax real discount rates ranging between 8.43% and 11.77% (2015: 7.99% and 12.03%), depending on the asset,
         were used to determine the recoverable amounts (generally fair value less costs to sell).

                                                                                                                             2017 onwards
  US$ gold price ($/ounce)                                                                                                          1 189
  US$ silver price ($/ounce)                                                                                                        17.80

  Exchange rate (PGK/US$)                                                                                                            3.10
  Rand gold price (R/Kg)                                                                                                          530 000

  For South African operations, values of US$40.86, US$23.35 and US$5.84 per ounce were used for measured, indicated and inferred
  resources, respectively. For Hidden Valley, US$5.84 per ounce was used for indicated and inferred resources.

    The annual impairment assessment performed resulted in a net reversal of impairment of R43 million for the 2016 financial year.
  - A reversal of R738 million was recorded for Doornkop mainly due to the increased Rand gold price assumption, improvements in
    operational efficiencies following the restructuring in 2015 and new areas included in the life-of-mine plan based on additional
    exploration performed during 2016. The recoverable amount is R2.8 billion.
  - An impairment of R466 million was recorded for Hidden Valley. The updated life-of-mine plan for Hidden Valley results in lower
    production in 2017 as the mine undergoes processing of ore stockpiles and a period of care and maintenance, with stripping activities
    for stage 5 planned to recommence in the 2018 financial year. The recoverable amount is R319 million (US$21.7 million).
  - An impairment of R229 million was recorded for Masimong which has a remaining life of mine of three years. The exploration
    programme to find additional areas of the higher grade B Reef proved unsuccessful and was stopped during 2016. In addition, the
    grade estimation of the Basal Reef decreased and as a result a portion of the resource was abandoned at 30 June 2016. The
    recoverable amount is R472 million.

     The recoverable amounts for these assets were determined on a fair value less costs to sell basis using the assumptions above in
     discounted cash flow models and attributable resource values. These are fair value measurements classified as level 3.

     The sensitivity scenario of a 10% decrease in the commodity price used in the discounted cash flow models and the resource values
     used (with all other variables held constant) would have resulted in an additional impairment at Hidden Valley of R319 million and
     Masimong of R281 million. The decreases noted would have resulted in impairments at Unisel of R162 million, Free State surface
     assets of R141 million, Other Harmony assets of R46 million and Doornkop of R15 million (as opposed to the reversal recorded of
     R738 million).

  (b) Loss on scrapping of property, plant and equipment
      At 30 June 2016, following the annual life-of-mine planning, an amount of R64 million (2015: R491 million) was recorded for various
      operations as a result of the abandonment of uneconomical areas in the life-of-mine plans of those operations. The abandonment of
      unprofitable areas in the plans resulted in the derecognition of property, plant and equipment as no future economic benefits are
      expected from their use or disposal. For June 2015, the scrapping loss recorded mainly related to the life-of-mine optimisation
      process finalised in December 2014 which resulted in the abandoning of shaft levels and raise lines at Kusasalethu and Masimong.

7 Investment in associate

  Harmony's gross portion of the subordinated shareholders' loan extended to Rand Refinery Proprietary Limited (Rand Refinery) in
  December 2014 amounts to R120 million. This loan forms part of the net investment in associate. At 30 June 2016, Harmony set off its
  share of profits from associate of R7 million against its share of losses of R25 million recorded against the loan in 2015, as well as an
  additional provision for impairment of R25 million (2015: R15 million). The recoverable amount of the loan at 30 June 2016 is R62 million
  (2015: R80 million). The fair value measurement of the net investment is classified as level 3 and is non-recurring. The loan is due in
  December 2016 and has been included in Other receivables - current.

8 Borrowings

  During the 2016 financial year R300 million and R400 million was raised and repaid respectively on the R1.3 billion Nedbank revolving

   Fair value determination

   The fair value levels of hierarchy are as follows:

   Level 1:          Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets;
   Level 2:          Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly (that is,
                     as prices) or indirectly (that is derived from prices);
   Level 3:          Inputs for the asset that are not based on observable market data (that is unobservable inputs).

   The following table presents the group's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value at reporting date:

   (1) Level 3 fair values have been valued by the directors by performing independent valuations on an annual basis.
   (2) The majority of the level 2 fair values are directly derived from the Top 40 index on the JSE, and are discounted at market interest rate. This relates to
       equity-linked deposits in the group's environmental rehabilitation trust funds.
   (3) The mark-to-market remeasurement of the forex hedging contracts (zero cost collars) is derived from a Black-Scholes valuation technique, derived
       from spot Rand/US$ exchange rate inputs and discounted at market interest rate.

   For all other financial instruments, fair value approximates carrying value.

   Contingent liabilities

   For a detailed disclosure on contingent liabilities refer to Harmony's annual financial statements for the financial year ended 30 June
   2015. Other than discussed below, there were no significant changes in contingencies since 30 June 2015.

   (a) Silicosis
       On 13 May 2016, the Johannesburg High Court ordered the certification of a silicosis class and a tuberculosis (TB) class, which are
       to proceed as a single class against the mining companies acted in the application. The companies requested leave to appeal to the
       Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA), which was granted on 24 June 2016. Harmony submitted its notice of appeal in respect of the
       transmissibility of the general damages order on 22 July 2016.

       Due to the limited information available on the above claim and potential other claims, and the uncertainty of the outcome of the
       matter, no costs estimation can as yet be made for the possible obligation.

   (b) During July 2015, Harmony signed a R150 million guarantee for the ARM Broad Based Economic Empowerment (BBEE) Trust (the Trust), 
       shareholder of the African Rainbow Minerals Limited. The guarantee was for additional security for the Trust's loan due to
       Nedbank Limited. The guarantee was subsequently cancelled in April 2016 after Harmony advanced R200 million to the Trust as part
       of the restructuring and refinancing of the Trust's bank debt. The loan is subordinated and unsecured. The interest rate is market
       related (3 month JIBAR plus 4.25%) and is receivable on the maturity of the loan on 31 December 2022. At 30 June 2016, the loan to
       the Trust was tested for impairment and a provision for impairment of R33 million was required. This impairment is included in "Other
       expenses (net)" in the income statement. The recoverable amount on the Trust loan at 30 June 2016 is R172 million and is recorded
       in Other non-current receivable in the balance sheet. The fair value measurement is classified as level 3 and is non-recurring.

13 Subsequent events

       a) On 7 July 2016, Harmony repaid the remaining R300 million outstanding on the R1.3 billion Nedbank ZAR facility.
       b) During July 2016, Harmony entered into short term gold forward sale contracts for a total of 432 000 ounces over a period of 
          24 months. These contracts create cash certainty for approximately 20% of the Group's total production at an average gold price of
          R682 000/kg. We will be applying cash flow hedge accounting to these contracts.
       c) On 15 August 2016, the board declared a dividend of 50 SA cents for the year ended 30 June 2016, payable on 19 September 2016.
