RESULTS OF SHARE PLACING

Johannesburg, 13 February 2020: Gold Fields (Tickers JSE: GFI and NYSE:
GFI) is pleased to announce the successful completion of the placing
announced yesterday on SENS (the "Placing").

A total of 41,431,635 new ordinary, no par value shares in the authorised
but unissued share capital of Gold Fields have been placed with existing
and new institutional investors (the "Placing Shares") at a price of ZAR
90.20 per share (the "Placing Price"). Gross proceeds of approximately
ZAR3.7 billion / US$252 million were raised through the Placing. The net
proceeds from the Placing will be used to continue predevelopment work
and commence construction of the Salares Norte project, an exciting
project in an established mining jurisdiction with an initial 11.5 year
life of mine and an average annual production of 450koz of gold
equivalent (over the first seven years) at an all-in sustaining cost of
US$552/oz (over the life of mine).


J.P. Morgan Securities plc acted as Sole Global Coordinator and Joint
Bookrunner and BMO Capital Markets Limited (together with J.P. Morgan
plc, the "Managers") acted as Joint Bookrunner in respect of the Placing.

The Placing Shares being issued represent, in aggregate, approximately
5 per cent of the Company's issued ordinary share capital prior to the
Placing. The Placing Price represents a discount of 3.8 per cent to the
30 day VWAP prior to 12 February 2020, which is in compliance with
Section 5.52 of the JSE Listings Requirements. The Placing Shares, when
issued, will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing Gold
Fields ordinary shares in issue, including the right to receive all
dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date
of issue thereof.

An application will be made to the JSE Limited ("JSE") for the listing
of the Placing Shares. Subject to approval by the JSE, listing and
trading ("Admission") of the Placing Shares are expected to occur on the
JSE on or around 18 February 2020 (or such later date as may be agreed
between the Company and the Sole Global Coordinator) and dealings in the
Placing Shares are expected to commence at the same time. The Placing
is conditional upon, amongst other things, Admission of the Placing
Shares on the JSE becoming effective and the placing agreement between
the   Company   and   the   Managers  ("Placing   Agreement")    becoming
unconditional and not being terminated in accordance with its terms prior
to Admission.

Placing Shares purchased by persons outside the United States may not
be offered, sold, resold, delivered or otherwise distributed in or into
the United States or to any U.S. person (as defined by Regulation S under
the Securities Act) or deposited into the Company's ADS program for a
period of 40 days after the settlement of the Placing and the Company's
ADSs may not be used in any hedging transaction that includes the Placing
Shares.   Further, the Placing Shares may not be deposited into the
Company's ADS program for so long as they are restricted securities
(within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) and therefore
are not tradeable on the New York Stock Exchange.        Please read the
important notice at the end of this announcement for further details in
relation to these restrictions.

Following Admission, the Company's issued share capital will comprise
870,064,342 ordinary no par value shares. This figure may be used by
shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their beneficial
interest in, or a change to their beneficial interest in, the Company's
ordinary shares under section 122 of the South African Companies Act of
2008.

Pursuant to the terms of the Placing Agreement, Gold Fields has agreed,
subject to certain exclusions, to a lock-up arrangement in respect of
Gold Fields's equity securities for a period of 90 days from 13 February
2020.
