Production update – Q3 FY2016

·  4% increase in gold production; and

·  key regulatory milestone achieved for additional tailings deposition capacity.

DRDGOLD is pleased to advise shareholders that the Company reports a 4% increase in quarter on quarter
gold production for the quarter ended 31 March 2016 (“Quarter”) to 1 187 kilograms, notwithstanding a
decrease of 7% in throughput to 5 896 000 tonnes.

The Company confirms that total operating costs were stable for the Quarter. As a result of the decrease in
throughput, operating costs per unit increased by 7% to just over R80 per tonne.

Throughput for the Quarter was lower as a result of inclement weather, as well as several grid-related
interruptions in the supply of electricity.

After paying a dividend of R51 million, DRDGOLD ended the Quarter with R416 million in cash and cash
equivalents, compared with R254 million in the previous quarter.

DRDGOLD is also pleased to announce that a key milestone in increasing the capacity of the
Brakpan/Withok Tailings Deposition Facility (“TDF”) has been achieved, with the approval by the Department
of Water and Sanitation (DWS) of certain amendments to its Integrated Water Use Licence to incorporate the
bulk of the Withok footprint.

This approval by the DWS paves the way for Ergo Mining (Proprietary) Limited’s (“Ergo”) operation’s
deposition capacity to increase from 200 million tonnes to approximately 800 million tonnes, which is enough
to receive most of the mine waste tailings in and around the Johannesburg area.

The TDF is used to dispose of all residues from the reprocessing of mine waste from Ergo's clean-up and
reclamation sites across the eastern and western Johannesburg area. The TDF also serves as a disposal
facility for the DWS’ Trans-Caledon Tunnel Authority’s water treatment facility in Boksburg, where the bulk of
acid mine drainage (“AMD”) emanating from the central basin is treated.

Ergo has resources of approximately 10.8 million ounces of gold contained in mine waste, which are being
reprocessed at a rate of approximately 24 million tonnes per year.

DWS’s approval not only brings DRDGOLD closer to a very significant increase in the life of mine of Ergo,
but also serves as assurance of a long-term sustainable deposition site for the waste produced by the
treatment of AMD.
