South Africa’s gold production fell by an estimated 10.4% in 2020, over the previous year, primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which lead to strict lockdown measures across the country and caused significant disruption on mining operations. Harmony Gold, Sibanye-Stillwater, Gold Fields, and Pan African Resources are the top four gold producers in South Africa, accounting for 83.3% of the country’s total production. By 2025, the country’s gold production is expected to reach 4.0Moz, with an expected CAGR of 3.3% between 2021-2025. Two major upcoming projects Platreef Project and Bakubung are expected to commence operation by 2022, with a combined metal production capacity of more than 31.7koz. Gold producers benefited significantly from a steep increase in the gold price in 2020, with gold seen as a safe haven amid the COVID-19 pandemic and interest rate cuts and huge liquidity injections by central banks and governments as a response to the pandemic.
