ISSUES OF SHARES FOR CASH UNDER A GENERAL AUTHORITY

1. BACKGROUND

On 6 August 2006 and 13 September 2006, DRDGOLD and DRD (Offshore) Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of DRDGOLD, (“the Group”), entered into loan agreements with a financial institution ("the agreements”), in terms of which loan facilities of R50 million on a revolving basis and US$33 million (“the facilities”) were provided to the Group.

The agreements provide that the financial institution may call for the repayment of any drawn down portion of the
facilities and that DRDGOLD may elect to repay the facilities either in cash or through an issue of new DRDGOLD
ordinary shares or a combination thereof.

2. DETAILS OF THE ISSUES

On 15 January 2007, DRDGOLD announced on SENS that under its general authority to issue shares for cash, which general authority was granted to the directors of DRDGOLD at the company’s annual general meetings held on Friday, 4 November 2005 and Friday, 8 December 2006, respectively (“general authority to issue shares for cash”), it had drawn down R340 million of the facilities and had exceeded the threshold of 5% in terms of section 11.22 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited (“the listings requirements”)in order to settle a portion of the draw down on the
facilities.

Since that date, the Group has settled a further portion of the draw down on the facilities through the issue of, in
aggregate, 15 668 327 new DRDGOLD ordinary shares (“the new shares”) under its general authority to issue shares for cash.

Consequently, DRDGOLD hereby announces that it has exceeded a further 5% threshold and has cumulatively issued in excess of 10% of the securities in issue prior to the draw down of the facilities in terms of the listings requirements.

The new shares were issued at an average price of R5.5481 per new share. The average discount to the 30-day trade-weighted average price per DRDGOLD ordinary share is calculated from the date of the determination of the price of the issue of the new shares in respect of each draw down.

Shares issued      Share price       Discount
4 500 000            R5.7399            6.899 %
5 819 475            R5.5103            3.750 %
5 348 852            R5.4279            2.810 %

3. PRO FORMA FINANCIAL EFFECTS

The directors of DRDGOLD are responsible for the preparation of the pro forma financial effects set out below, which have been prepared for illustrative purposes only, to assist shareholders in assessing the impact of the
issues of the new shares ("the issues") on the earnings, headline earnings, net asset value and tangible net asset
value per share. The material assumptions are set out in the notes following the table. These pro forma financial effects have been disclosed in terms of the listings requirements and do not constitute a representation of the future financial position, changes in equity, results of operations or cash flows of DRDGOLD.

Notes:
1. The loss and headline loss per share for continuing operations, as set out in the "Before the issues" column
of the table, are based on the unaudited financial results of DRDGOLD for the six months ended
31 December 2006 and 325 172 488 weighted average number of shares in issue.
2. The loss per share and headline loss per share, as set out in the "After the issues" column of the table,
are based on 340 840 815 weighted average number of shares in issue and the assumptions that:
- the issues were effective on 1 July 2006;
- the new shares were issued at an average price of R5.5481 per new share; and
- the proceeds of the issue resulting in a pre-tax interest earned of R3.8 million.
3. The net asset value per share and tangible net asset value per share, as set out in the "Before the issues"
column of the table, are based on the unaudited balance sheet of DRDGOLD at 31 December 2006 and
338 523 654 shares in issue.
4. The net asset value per share and tangible net asset value per share, as set out in the "After the issues"
column of the table, are based on a total of 354 191 981 shares in issue and the assumption that the new
shares were in issue on 31 December 2006 at an average issue price of R5.5481 per new share.

The pro forma financial information included in this announcement does not purport to be in compliance
with Regulation S-X of the rules and regulations of the US Securities Exchange Commission.
