Harmony appoints two general managers

Johannesburg. Friday, 23 January 2009 . Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (Harmony) is pleased to announce the appointments of two general managers. Steven Green was promoted to general manager at Harmony’s Virginia operations in the Free State after serving as acting general manager for three months. Malcolm Bentley was newly appointed to the Harmony team as general manager at its Evander operation.

Green, who has 24 years experience in the gold mining industry, assumed the responsibilities of acting general manager at the Virginia operations in October 2008. Due to his exceptional management skills, his knowledge of the industry and his passion for safety, Green was ideally suited to take over as the general manager in January 2009.

Bentley was an external appointment and has nearly 30 years of experience in the mining industry. During these years he held prominent managerial positions, which include that of Regional Manager (Platinum Division) at Concor Mining Services, Operations Manager at Impala Platinum Mines and Operations Manager of the Gold Division at Manhattan Corporation. Furthermore, Bentley served as director at Africa Mining Services.

Harmony’s Chief Executive, Graham Briggs says, “Harmony recognises hard work and exceptional skills among its employees. Green’s promotion to General Manager at Harmony’s Virginia operations bares testimony to this. Bentley has commendable skills and experience in the mining industry and he will be an asset to our team.”
