DRDGold Ltd

DRDGold Ltd

DRDGold Ltd (DRD) is a South African-focused gold producer that specialises in retreating old tailings and mine dumps to recover gold. Its business model is generally lower on capital intensity than conventional underground mining, relying on reprocessing operations and metallurgy to generate cash flow. Key drivers for DRDGold include the gold price, South African rand–US dollar exchange rates, and operational throughput at its processing plants. The company can offer relatively predictable recovery volumes compared with greenfield miners, but it remains exposed to commodity cyclicality, regulatory change, and local operational risks. Investors should be aware of environmental and rehabilitation obligations tied to tailings, as well as potential volatility in earnings and dividends. This summary is for educational purposes only and not personal financial advice; investors should assess suitability against their risk tolerance and consider professional advice before investing.
