Re:	DRDGold Limited Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended

Dear Mr. Schwall:

On behalf of DRDGold Limited (the “Company”), I refer to the letter dated March 19, 2010 (the “Comment Letter”) from the Staff relating to the Company’s Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, and the telephone conversation I had with Bob Carroll today regarding the Company’s plan for responding to the Comment Letter.  Further to that telephone conversation, this letter confirms that the Company plans to respond to the Staff’s comments no later than April 23, 2010.

Please contact me at +44 20 7519 7183 with any questions.

Sincerely,

/s/ James A. McDonald
