Gold Fields Confirms Lease Renewal Process with Ghana Government for Tarkwa Mine
Gold Fields notes recent media reports referencing the process currently underway with the Government of Ghana with respect to the renewal of the Tarkwa mining leases. The Company confirms, as previously announced, that Gold Fields Ghana Limited, a 90% held subsidiary of Gold Fields and the holding company for the Tarkwa mine submitted an early application for the five Tarkwa mining leases that are due for renewal in April 2027, consistent with the agreement reached with the Government of Ghana in April 2025. Subsequent to this submission in November 2025, Gold Fields has held several engagements with the Government of Ghana, with the discussions now focusing on the terms of the mining lease renewals. The outcome, timing and terms of the lease renewals remain the subject of these ongoing engagements with the Government of Ghana.
