Sibanye Gold (NYSE:SBSW) is a precious metals mining company headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa. The company’s core operations focus on the extraction, processing and exploration of gold.

Established in 2012 as a spin-out from AngloGold Ashanti’s South African operations, Sibanye Gold rapidly grew through targeted acquisitions including Gold One International and several legacy mining assets in the Witwatersrand basin. Under the leadership of Chief Executive Officer Neal Froneman and Chief Financial Officer Mariette Lombard, the company has focused on strengthening operational performance, enhancing safety and pursuing exploration upside. Its governance framework includes a board of directors with expertise in mining engineering, finance and sustainability.
Committed to responsible mining practices, Sibanye Gold emphasizes health, safety and environmental stewardship across all operations. The company invests in community development and local procurement initiatives in the regions it serves.
