The above is a geographical analysis presented by location of assets. The Group’s operations are primarily involved in gold mining, exploration and related activities. Activities are conducted and investments held both inside and outside South
Africa. The segment results have been prepared and presented based on management’s reporting format. Gold mining operations are managed and internally reported based on the following geographical areas: in South Africa, South Deep
mine, in Ghana, Tarkwa and Damang mines, in Australia, St Ives, Agnew, Granny Smith and Gruyere, in Peru, the Cerro Corona mine and in Chile, Salares Norte. During 2024, Gold Fields acquired 100% of the share capital of Osisko and the
transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition (Refer note 17.2). The Group has exploration interests which are included in the “Corporate and other” segment. Refer to accounting policies on segment reporting on page 72.
Figures may not add as they are rounded independently.
1The income statement and statement of financial position of South Deep is that of the operating mine and does not include any of the adjustments made in respect of the purchase price allocation relating to the acquisition of South Deep.
South Deep Gold mine, being an unincorporated joint venture, is not liable for taxation. Taxation included in South Deep is indicative, as tax is provided in the holding companies at a rate of 29%.
2“Corporate and other” represents the items to reconcile segment data to consolidated financial statement totals, including the elimination of intercompany transactions and balances as well as the Group’s exploration interests. This does
not represent a separate segment as it does not generate revenue. Included in “Corporate and other” is the adjustment made in respect of the purchase price allocation of South Deep.
3The Osisko asset acquisition is included in the "Corporate and other segment".
4Other costs “Corporate and other” comprise share of losses of equity-accounted investees, net of taxation of US$53.6 million, Gruyere rainfall event costs of US$12.0 million and the balance of US$25.7 million expenses which consists
mainly of corporate related costs.
5The Australian operations are entitled to transfer and off-set profits and losses from one company to another, therefore it is not meaningful to split the royalties, income or deferred taxation.
6Capital expenditure for the year ended 31 December 2024.
7Includes revenue from the sale of copper amounting to US$192.7 million.
8The Group has disaggregated and disclosed cost of sales before gold inventory change and amortisation and depreciation for each segment in line with the IFRIC® Agenda Decision, Disclosure of Revenues and Expenses for Reportable
Segments. The comparatives have been presented accordingly to facilitate comparability of segment performance.

The above is a geographical analysis presented by location of assets. The Group’s operations are primarily involved in gold mining, exploration and related activities. Activities are conducted and investments held both inside and outside South
Africa. The segment results have been prepared and presented based on management’s reporting format. Gold mining operations are managed and internally reported based on the following geographical areas: in South Africa, South Deep
mine, in Ghana, Tarkwa and Damang mines, in Australia, St Ives, Agnew, Granny Smith and Gruyere, in Peru, the Cerro Corona mine and in Chile, Salares Norte. Asanko Gold was presented as a discontinued operation and an asset held for
sale as a result of the sale transaction (Refer notes 14 and 15). The Group also exploration interests which are included in the “Corporate and other” segment. Refer to accounting policies on segment reporting on page 72.
Figures may not add as they are rounded independently.
1The income statement and statement of financial position of South Deep is that of the operating mine and does not include any of the adjustments made in respect of the purchase price allocation relating to the acquisition of South Deep.
South Deep Gold mine, being an unincorporated joint venture, is not liable for taxation. Taxation included in South Deep is indicative, as tax is provided in the holding companies at a rate of 28%.
2“Corporate and other” represents the items to reconcile segment data to consolidated financial statement totals, including the elimination of intercompany transactions and balances as well as the Group’s exploration interests. This does not represent a
separate segment as it does not generate revenue. Included in “Corporate and other” is the adjustment made in respect of the purchase price allocation of South Deep.
3For the purpose of the review of the segment by the CODM, Asanko’s income statement was proportionately consolidated as a discontinued operation. The proportionately consolidated income of US$34.0 million above was reconciled to
Asanko's equity-accounted loss of US$18.9 million by deducting the purchase price allocation fair value adjustment amounting to US$6.0 million and impairment amounting to US$46.9 million. The profit for the year from continuing
operations of US$745.2 million reconciled to the total profit for the year of US$726.3 million by deducting the loss from discontinued operation of US$18.9 million. The Equity Accounted Joint Venture was carried at US$153.3 million.
4Other costs “Corporate and other” comprise share of losses of equity-accounted investees, net of taxation of US$32.6 million and the balance of US$6.0 million consists mainly of corporate related costs.
5The Australian operations are entitled to transfer and off-set profits and losses from one company to another, therefore it is not meaningful to split the royalties, income or deferred taxation.
6Capital expenditure for the year ended 31 December 2023.
7Includes revenue from the sale of copper amounting to US$207.6 million.
8The Group has disaggregated and disclosed cost of sales before gold inventory change and amortisation and depreciation for each segment in line with the IFRIC® Agenda Decision, Disclosure of Revenues and Expenses for Reportable
Segments. The comparatives have been presented accordingly to facilitate comparability of segment performance.

The above is a geographical analysis presented by location of assets. The Group’s operations are primarily involved in gold mining, exploration and related activities. Activities are conducted and investments held both inside and outside South
Africa. The segment results have been prepared and presented based on management’s reporting format. Gold mining operations are managed and internally reported based on the following geographical areas: in South Africa, South Deep
mine, in Ghana, Tarkwa and Damang mines, in Australia, St Ives, Agnew, Granny Smith and Gruyere, in Peru, the Cerro Corona mine and in Chile, Salares Norte. Asanko Gold was presented as a discontinued operation (Refer note 14). The
Group has exploration interests which are included in the “Corporate and other” segment. Refer to accounting policies on segment reporting on page 72. Figures may not add as they are rounded independently.
1The income statement and statement of financial position of South Deep is that of the operating mine and does not include any of the adjustments made in respect of the purchase price allocation relating to the acquisition of South Deep.
South Deep Gold mine, being an unincorporated joint venture, is not liable for taxation. Taxation included in South Deep is indicative, as tax is provided in the holding companies at a rate of 28%.
2“Corporate and other” represents the items to reconcile segment data to consolidated financial statement totals, including the elimination of intercompany transactions and balances as well as the Group’s exploration interests. This does not represent a
separate segment as it does not generate revenue. Included in “Corporate and other” is the adjustment made in respect of the purchase price allocation of South Deep.
3For the purpose of the review of the segment by the CODM, Asanko’s income statement was proportionately consolidated as a discontinued operation. The proportionately consolidated income of US$18.8 million above was reconciled to
Asanko's equity-accounted income of US$13.0 million by deducting the purchase price allocation fair value adjustment amounting to US$5.8 million. The profit for the year from continuing operations of US$708.7 million reconciled to the
total profit for the year of US$721.7 million by deducting the income from discontinued operation of US$13.0 million. The Equity Accounted Joint Venture was carried at US$72.5 million.
4Other costs “Corporate and other” comprise share of losses of equity-accounted investees, net of taxation of US$2.9 million and the balance of US$8.7 million consists mainly of corporate-related costs.
5The Australian operations are entitled to transfer and off-set profits and losses from one company to another, therefore it is not meaningful to split the royalties, income or deferred taxation.
6Capital expenditure for the year ended 31 December 2022.
7Includes revenue from the sale of copper amounting to US$201.6 million.
8The Group has disaggregated and disclosed cost of sales before gold inventory change and amortisation and depreciation for each segment in line with the IFRIC® Agenda Decision, Disclosure of Revenues and Expenses for Reportable
Segments. The comparatives have been presented accordingly to facilitate comparability of segment performance.
