“We must never tire to create a conducive environment for meaningful collective bargaining negotiations; coupled with working and living conditions free from the fear of violence and intimidation,” Mantashe said. Sibanye has cut down its expected gold production for 2018 to approximately 34,600 kg or 1.1 million ounces, marginally below previous guidance of between 35,000 kg and 36,000 kg or 1.13 million ounces and 1.16 million ounces as a result of the strike which began last November.
