About Gold Fields

Gold Fields is a gold producer with mining interests spread across Chile, South Africa, Ghana, other parts of West Africa, Australia and Peru. It also carries out copper exploration work alongside its main gold business. The company runs nine active mines, and together these sites yield close to 2.34 million ounces of gold equivalent in a typical year.

Its asset base includes roughly 48.6 million ounces classified as reserves, with a further 111.8 million ounces counted among its broader resource estimates. Output comes from this network of mines rather than any single location, reflecting the spread of its assets across several countries.

Gold Fields traces its founding back to 1887 and runs its head office out of Sandton, South Africa. Its stock carries the ticker GFI.
