Johannesburg: Thursday, 8 October 2015 . Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited ('Harmony' or 'the Company') is pleased to advise that the Company's total gold production will be 8% to 10% higher quarter on quarter.
Gold production from the South African operations increased by an admirable 16%, due to an increase in both tonnes and grade. As guided in August 2015, production at Hidden Valley in Papua New Guinea was negatively impacted by a fatality.
Chief executive officer, Graham Briggs, commented: 'The September quarter demonstrates that if we focus on what we can control, we are able to benefit from the current higher R/kg gold price'.
Harmony's results for the first quarter FY16 ended 30 September 2015 will be released by webcast and conference call on Thursday, 5 November 2015.
