Gold miner Harmony Gold reports that an employee has died after losing control of a heavy-duty vehicle.

The accident occurred near the Mponeng mine salvage yard. The driver was on his way to the Savuka central salvage yard, near Carletonville.

“The recent spate of loss of life incidents are of real concern to the Harmony family and we are deeply appalled. The tragic consequences of these incidents will continue to affect the families, colleagues and friends of our deceased colleagues for many years.

"However, we will continue our focus on embedding our risk management process to create a more engaged and proactive safety culture. All Harmony stakeholders are profoundly committed to making renewed and concerted efforts to prevent accidents through our ongoing humanistic transformation safety initiatives. Our prayers are with the families, friends and colleagues of the deceased during this difficult time,” says Harmony CEO Peter Steenkamp.

The relevant authorities have been informed and an investigation into the incident is under way.
