OPERATIONS Exploration

Exploration

We are partnering with junior exploration companies globally to discover potential opportunities in high-potential regions

At Gold Fields, we recognise the significant potential of sustainable greenfields exploration projects, and we strategically invest in junior exploration companies in high-potential regions.
