EMPEROR ANNOUNCES COMPLETION OF SELL DOWN OF DRDGOLD SHAREHOLDING

An extract from an announcement released today by Emperor Mines Limited (“Emperor”), a 78.72% indirect
subsidiary of DRDGOLD listed on the ASX Limited, is set out below.

“Emperor today announced that it has taken a major step towards completing its merger with Intrepid Mines
Limited (“Intrepid”), following the successful sale of DRDGOLD’s shareholding in Emperor to a range of
domestic and international institutions and sophisticated investors (“the sell down”).

On 18 September 2007, Emperor announced that DRDGOLD intended to offer its shareholding in Emperor
for sale, and that the merger with Intrepid was conditional upon the successful completion of this sale.
DRDGOLD engaged ABN AMRO Morgans and Tricom Equities (“the brokers”), to conduct the sale to
professional and sophisticated investors. The brokers commenced a book build following the lodgement of
an offer prospectus by DRDGOLD on Thursday 18 October.

The institutional book build was completed within 24 hours and was oversubscribed, with strong support
from a range of international and domestic institutions and high net worth clients of ABN AMRO Morgans
and Tricom. The placement price achieved was A$0.068 cents per share.

Importantly, the sell down will introduce more than 20 new institutional investors onto the Emperor register,
and will considerably increase Emperor’s free-float and liquidity. On completion, there will be no
shareholder in Emperor holding more than 15% of the equity in Emperor. The settlement of the placement is
expected to occur before the end of October 2007.”

A further announcement by DRDGOLD setting out the financial effects of the sell down will be released as
soon as possible.

The full text of the announcement by Emperor which sets out further information relating to its merger with
Intrepid can be found on the Emperor web site www.emperor.com.au.

DRDGOLD ENGAGES WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF MINERALS AND ENERGY ON THE ISSUE
OF A SECTION 54 NOTICE ON BLYVOORUITZICHT GOLD MINE

DRDGOLD can confirm that, following the death of an employee in a rockburst at Blyvooruitzicht Gold
Mine (“Blyvoor”) on Friday, the Department of Minerals and Energy (“the DME”) has issued a notice in
terms of Section 54 of the Mine Health and Safety Act (“the notice”).

The notice instructs that:
- all employees be removed from the stopes at the mine’s Number 4, 5 and 6 Shafts;
- a risk assessment involving an independent auditor, management, unions and associations be conducted;
and
- the results are presented to the Principal Inspector of Mines.

In view of the fact that the notice was served before the Principal Inspector had considered the circumstances
of Friday’s incident, DRDGOLD has requested the DME to withdraw the notice with respect to all stope
areas with the exception of the stope area affected.

The notice follows the award to Blyvoor of the Minister of Minerals and Energy’s Safety Award for the
greatest safety improvement in the ultra-deep gold and platinum category over the past three years.

DRDGOLD has expressed its disappointment at the refusal of the National Union of Mineworkers to
participate in a safety audit at Blyvoor on Saturday morning, following Friday’s incident.
