LOSS-OF-LIFE INCIDENT AT KUSASALETHU


Johannesburg, Tuesday, 7 June 2022. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited
(“Harmony” and/or “the Company”) regrets to report that one of its employees
tragically lost their life following an engineering-related incident yesterday
afternoon, at its Kusasalethu mine, near Carletonville, in the Gauteng province.


“Our heartfelt condolences go out to those impacted by this loss-of-life. We are
deeply saddened and very concerned by the frequency of incidents, particularly
at this mine – it is unacceptable. A safety day was held at Kusasalethu today,
where everyone – including the unions – reinforced safety messages and emphasised
the importance of our safety and accountability values. Our priority at this
stage is to support the families, colleagues and friends impacted by this tragedy
and to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the reason for yet another
incident,” said Peter Steenkamp, chief executive officer of Harmony.


The relevant authorities have been informed and an investigation into the
incident is currently underway.


Ends.
