1 LSE : RRS NASDAQ : GOLD Results for the quarter ended 30 September 2011 On course for growth. Delivering profitability now.

2 Safety first... Loulo…LTIFR continues to improve to 0.70 per million hours worked Gounkoto…abnormal rainfall lead to one fatality caused by drowning Morila…no LTI’s and internal safety audit of OHSAS 18001 was successfully completed Tongon…No LTI’s and extensive environmental aspect identification and risk based assessments conducted in line with targeted ISO14001 and OHSAS18001 accreditation

3 Randgold Resources…highlights Profits for the period, after Tongon adjustment, increase by 29% on previous quarter Group production maintained despite weather challenges at Loulo and Gounkoto Cash costs reduced and profit from mining increased by more than 50% at Loulo complex Loulo underground improving performance trend continues Ore haulage operation from Gounkoto to Loulo enhanced by arrival of fleet of 50t Volvo trucks Hard rock crushing circuit commissioned at Tongon and mine officially opened by the President of Côte d’Ivoire All significant long lead items and permitting for Kibali in place; on track for Q4 2013 commissioning Advanced grade control drilling started at Kibali Annual review of greenfields exploration highlights significant potential for upcoming season

Ore Reserve pit and underground optimisations are carried out at a gold price of US$700/oz. Dilution and ore loss are incorporated into the calculation of reserves. Addition of individual line items may not sum to sub totals because of the rounding off to two decimal places. Mineral Resources are inclusive of Mineral Reserves. Loulo Mineral Resources were calculated by Mr Chiaka Berthe an officer of the company under the supervision of Mr Rodney Quick a Qualified person and officer of the company.
