About Sibanye Stillwater Limited
Sibanye Stillwater Limited, along with its various subsidiaries, functions as a prominent precious metals mining entity with operations spanning South Africa, the United States, Zimbabwe, Canada, and Argentina. The company's primary outputs encompass gold and Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) – specifically palladium, platinum, and rhodium – alongside secondary commodities such as iridium, ruthenium, nickel, copper, and chrome. In the United States, its assets include the East Boulder and Stillwater mines situated in Montana. These are supported by the Columbus metallurgical complex, which is responsible for smelting the mined material into PGM-rich filter cake and also conducts PGM recycling activities. Its extensive portfolio in South Africa features PGM operations at Kroondal, Rustenburg, Marikana, and Platinum Mile. Gold production stems from surface facilities like Driefontein, Kloof, and Cooke, located on the West Rand of the Witwatersrand Basin, as well as the Beatrix mine in the southern Free State. Further international interests include the Mimosa mine in the southern region of Zimbabwe, the Marathon PGM project in Ontario, Canada, and the Altar and Rio Grande copper-gold ventures nestled within the Andes in northwest Argentina. Sibanye Stillwater also maintains holdings in surface tailings retreatment facilities and other South African gold projects, including Hoedspruit, Burnstone, and additional sites in the southern Free State. The company was founded in 2013 and maintains its headquarters in Weltevreden Park, South Africa.
