Two employees died in a fall-of-ground incident, caused by a seismic event, at Harmony Gold's Kusasalethu mine, in Carletonville, on September 5.

“We are deeply saddened by the loss of our colleagues. Harmony continues its focus on embedding its risk management practice to create a more engaged and proactive safety culture.

"The inclusion and involvement of all Harmony stakeholders in all aspects of safety demonstrate a unified commitment to prevent accidents through our ongoing humanistic transformation safety journey,” says Harmony CEO Peter Steenkamp.

The work area where the fall-of-ground occurred has been temporarily closed pending an internal investigation.
