| ABSTRACT: | Santiago de Chile, 18 December 2019: Gold Fields Limited (Gold Fields) (JSE, NYSE: GFI) is pleased to announce that the Atacama Environmental Assessment Commission today approved the environmental impact study for its Salares Norte project in Chile. The environmental approval for the project is a crucial step for Gold Fields as it evaluates a construction decision. “The company will now formulate a funding plan, update the feasibility study completed earlier this year and proceed to a construction decision during H1 2020,” says Nick Holland, CEO of Gold Fields. The potential mine would present a boost for the regional economy with respect to job creation, procurement of goods and services as well as payments of taxes and royalties. It is estimated that about 2,700 jobs would be created during construction of the mine, which – if given the go-ahead by Gold Fields – would be completed by end2022. About 900 workers would be employed once the mine is operational. | |
