JOHANNESBURG - Sibanye-Stillwater is overhauling its corporate structure and will create a holding company for its gold assets, months after it took over platinum producer Lonmin.

“SGL is proposing that, as contemplated under the scheme, Sibanye-Stillwater acquires the entire issued share capital of SGL in exchange for the issue and allotment of shares in Sibanye-Stillwater to the SGL shareholders. Sibanye-Stillwater will serve as the holding company for the group,” it said. SGL directly holds the Kloof and Driefontein mines in Gauteng and the Beatrix operation in the Free State. All three operations were hit by a five month-long wage strike that ended in April.

It said the move was aimed at creating a structure where its gold and platinum group metal portfolios were each held within their own distinct legal entities. The group’s South African PGM assets include the Kroondal, Rustenburg, Platinum Mile operations and the Marikana operations, which were acquired as part of the Lonmin acquisition.
