Johannesburg: Wednesday, 5 February 2014: Further to the statement issued this
morning that an underground fire has broken out at Doornkop gold mine, the company

underground refuge bay, and are bringing them to surface. Efforts continue to
establish the whereabouts of a further nine employees who are currently unaccounted

The fire was reported to have occurred in a stope adjacent to 192 level haulage (some

were immediately dispatched underground, but access to the affected area is being

Operations at the mine have been suspended.
Further updates will be provided as these become available.
The company will host a briefing for the media at 13:00.
