Description: GFI Gold Fields

Gold Fields Limited is a South African gold mining company that produces gold and explores for gold, copper, and silver deposits across six countries, including South Africa, Ghana, Australia, Peru, Canada, and Chile. Founded in 1887 and headquartered in Sandton, South Africa, the company operates as a large-cap materials sector constituent and trades on the NYSE via an American Depositary Receipt (ADR), a structure that allows U.S. investors to hold shares of a foreign company without dealing directly with foreign settlement systems.
