Gold Fields Q1 2013 Guidance Update


Johannesburg, 3 April 2013: Gold Fields Limited (Gold Fields) (JSE, NYSE, NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) today
announced that attributable Group production for the new Gold Fields, excluding any contribution
from Sibanye Gold, for the March 2013 quarter (Q1 2013) is expected to be 476,000 gold-equivalent
ounces. Cash costs are expected to be approximately US$830/oz and NCE is expected to be
approximately US$1,290/oz.

This performance from the new Gold Fields is in-line with the production guidance for 2013 of
between 1,825,000 and 1,900,000 ounces and the cash cost and NCE guidance of US$860/oz and
US$1,360/oz respectively.

When Gold Fields reports its results for Q1 2013, it will, for accounting reasons, have to include two
months of production (January and February 2013) from Sibanye Gold. On that basis production is
expected to be reported as approximately 662,000 gold-equivalent ounces. Total cash costs are
expected to be approximately US$915/oz and NCE US$1,325/oz.

Gold Fields will release its results for Q1 2013 on Friday, 10 May 2013.
