Description: DRD DRDGOLD January 16, 2026

DRDGOLD Limited (NYSE: DRD) is a South-African gold miner that generates revenue by retreating surface-mine tailings to extract gold and, to a lesser extent, silver bullion. The firm also offers ancillary services such as care-and-maintenance, renewable-energy generation, employee home-loan financing, and operates a training centre. Incorporated in 1895 and headquartered in Johannesburg, the company rebranded from Durban Roodepoort Deep Limited in 2004 and currently operates as a subsidiary of Sibanye Gold Limited.

Key operational metrics (FY 2023) include ≈ 1.2 million ounces of gold produced at an average cash cost of ≈ US$800 per ounce, positioning DRD among the lower-cost producers in the sector. The company’s tailings-re-treatment model yields a ~ 30 % higher metal recovery rate than conventional processing, providing a built-in hedge against declining ore grades. South Africa’s macro-environment-particularly electricity supply constraints and labor-policy uncertainty-remains a primary driver of DRD’s cost structure, while the firm’s 30 % renewable-energy mix mitigates exposure to power-price volatility.
