Project Description
Mponeng is a world-class mine with two excellent, well-defined orebodies – the Carbon Leader reef and Ventersdorp Contact reef – with average face grades of more than 14g/t and recovered grades of more than 9g/t.

The project will extend the mine’s life until 2044, and will add 3.05-million ounces of mineral reserves, over the life of the mine, delivering average expected steady-state production of about 264 000 oz/y.

Potential Job Creation

Net Present Value/Internal Rate of Return
Not stated.

Capital Expenditure
This project, which requires R7.9-billion over the life of the project, will be internally funded through Mponeng's excess operating free cash flows.

As result, Harmony estimates an additional R1-billion in capital expenditure from the 2025 financial year once the project starts.

Planned Start/End Date
First gold is expected after four years.
