DRDGOLD is a South African gold mining company that focuses on recovering gold from surface tailings rather than from conventional underground ore bodies. Its operations cover the full range of activities needed to turn this material into gold, including exploration, extraction, processing and smelting. The company is best known for reworking material that has already been brought to the surface, rather than mining new deposits from below ground.
Its core activity is centered on surface tailings located in the Witwatersrand basin, within Gauteng province. This reprocessing approach forms the basis of how DRDGOLD generates its business, drawing on material that already exists above ground rather than developing new underground mining projects. The company operates as a subsidiary of Sibanye Gold Limited, which places it within a larger corporate structure rather than functioning as a fully independent operator.
DRDGOLD traces its history back to 1895 and is headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa. The company's shares trade under the ticker DRD.
DRDGOLD’s GekkoIndex — Gekko’s 0 to 100 smart money score — reads 61.4, in the Accumulation zone, down 4.2 points over five sessions.
