Registration Statement on Form F-3
(File No. 333-112484)
Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Gold Fields
Limited (the “Company”) hereby respectfully requests the withdrawal of its Registration Statement on Form
F-3 (Commission File No. 333-112484), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “Commission”) on February 4, 2004 (the “Registration Statement”).
The Company is requesting the withdrawal of the Registration Statement because the Company decided not
to pursue its effectiveness under the Securities Act due to changed circumstances in the securities markets.
The Registration Statement has not been declared effective and no securities have been sold pursuant
thereto.

Very truly yours
