OPPORTUNITIES OUTWEIGH CHALLENGES FOR GOLD MINERS IN AFRICA

Toronto, 3 March 2014 - There are many challenges to mining in Africa
but there are even more opportunities open to those with the vision to
grasp them, Randgold Resources chief executive Mark Bristow said
today. Randgold operates gold mines in Mali, Cote d'Ivoire and the
Democratic Republic of Congo.

Speaking at the PDAC convention here, Bristow said the depletion of the
traditional gold mining regions was forcing gold miners to turn to
highly prospective emerging countries previously regarded as too
risky. At the same time, the end of the Cold War had opened up gold
fields in Africa and other emerging markets that had long been
difficult or impossible to access.
