GOLD FIELDS GUIDANCE FOR SEPTEMBER
QUARTER 2010
Johannesburg, 23 September 2010 -
Gold Fields Limited (Gold
Fields) (JSE, NYSE, NASDAQ Dubai: GFI) has announced that
attributable Group production for the September quarter 2010 is
expected to be about 906,000 oz.
Total cash cost is expected to be approximately US$715/oz and
notional cash expenditure (NCE) about US$1,020/oz. NCE is in line
with the higher capital expenditure planned for the September and
December quarters of 2010. Costs in South Africa during the

A$/US$0.88.
Nick Holland, Chief Executive Officer of Gold Fields, said: "We are
pleased with the progress we have made during the September
quarter and are on track to achieve our annual guidance for the 12
months to end-June 2011."
