CHANGES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
DRDGOLD is pleased to announce the appointment as Non-Executive Chairman, with immediate effect, of Dr Moltin Paseka Ncholo. 

The appointment is in line with recommendations of the King Code of Corporate Practices and Conduct that a company should engage the services of a Non-Executive Chairman. 

Dr Ncholo was appointed Non-Executive Director of the company in March 2002. Awarded his doctorate in Law in 1992, Dr Ncholo was admitted as an advocate of the High Court of South Africa in 1994. Prior to becoming the Chairman of Khumo Bathong Holdings (Proprietary) Limited and East Rand Proprietary Mines Limited in 1999, he was Director-General of the Department of Public Service and Administration in the South African Government. Dr Ncholo is a Director of Crown Gold Recoveries (Proprietary) Limited as well as a Non-Executive Director of Mvelaphanda Resources Limited. 

Current DRDGOLD Executive Chairman Mark Michael Wellesley-Wood is to resume his role as Chief Executive Officer, which he relinquished to Ian Louis Murray a year ago. 

Mr Murray will remain an Executive Director of DRDGOLD, in charge of the critically important area of corporate development. 

Douglas Neil Campbell has resigned from the board of DRDGOLD as Financial Director and Chief Financial Officer but will remain with the group in the interim.
