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
Harmonys 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.

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.
Harmonys Chief Executive, Graham Briggs says, Harmony recognises hard work and exceptional skills
among its employees. Greens promotion to General Manager at Harmonys 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.
