South Deep, Gold Fields’ Westonaria-based flagship gold mine, is entering the final stage of a four-part strategic journey it embarked on in 2017 to stabilise the operation, improve sustainability and longevity, reduce operational costs, improve efficiencies and ensure it meets the criteria to be classified as a mine of the future. From the third quarter of 2017 to the first quarter of 2018, Gold Fields started the journey to reshape South Deep by conducting the first stage of the strategy to identify and analyse challenges at the mine, which it plans to address, says Gold Fields South Deep executive VP Martin Preece.
