TRANSACTION WITH PAMODZI GOLD LIMITED, IN RESPECT OF ORKNEY ASSETS,             
UNCONDITIONAL                                                                   
Johannesburg, Monday, 25 February 2008.  Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited    
(Harmony) is pleased to announce that all conditions precedent in respect of the
transaction entered into with Pamodzi Gold Limited (Pamodzi Gold), regarding the
sale of the Orkney assets, have been met.  Pamodzi Gold will take full control  
of the Orkney assets as from the 27th of February 2008.                         
Harmony and Pamodzi Gold entered into the transaction in September 2007.  The   
original consideration price would have been settled by a combination of cash,  
the issue of Pamodzi Gold shares and a secondary consideration, being a net     
smelter royalty. The increase in capital required for re-capitalization of the  
assets and the recent operational results, have resulted in the consideration   
price being re-negotiated.  The purchase consideration has been reduced from    
R550 million to R300 million and will be settled by Pamodzi Gold issuing   30   
million shares to Harmony. No cash payment or secondary consideration will be   
required.  As a result, Harmony will hold approximately 32% of Pamodzi Gold`s   
issued share capital.                                                           
"We believe that Pamodzi Gold will be able to extract value from the Orkney     
assets.  By increasing our holding, we will be able to share in the upside of   
the assets over a longer term, which is line with our existing strategy", said  
Graham Briggs, chief executive officer of Harmony.
