HARMONY DISPOSES OF ITS REMAINING SHARES IN GOLD FIELDS LIMITED                 
Johannesburg, Wednesday, 16 November 2005 - Harmony (NYSE: HMY; JSE: HAR) today 
announced that it had disposed of its remaining 26,5 Million Gold Fields Limited
shares at an average price of R93.228 per share.  The process was concluded     
through market disposals which commenced on 10 November 2005 and an open market 
offering on 15 and 16 November 2005.                                            
"The disposal of our remaining shares in Gold Fields has significantly          
strengthened our balance sheet.  In addition, with Harmony"s re-structuring     
process being concluded during the previous quarter, the company is well-       
positioned to fully exploit the current higher gold price in Rand/kg terms.     
This bodes well for Harmony who through the development of our range of growth  
projects in South Africa and Papua New Guinea will be transformed from a high   
cost marginal producer to producing high margin quality ounces", commented      
Harmony CEO, Bernard Swanepoel.                                                 
Merrill Lynch South Africa acted as sole bookrunner for this transaction.       
A full SENS announcement with more details regarding the disposal will follow.
