                                       NEW SOUTH32 DIRECTOR

South32 Limited (ASX, LSE, JSE: S32; ADR: SOUHY) (South32) Chair, Karen Wood, today announces the
appointment of an additional director to the South32 Board.

Guy Lansdown will join the South32 Board as an independent non-executive director. Guy’s appointment follows an
extensive global search to identify a director with skills and leadership experience in mining and capital projects with
an emphasis on greenfield developments in the Americas. He will join the Board on 2 December 2019 and seek
election by shareholders at next year’s Annual General Meeting.

Guy is a civil engineer with over 35 years’ experience, including as an executive at Newmont Mining Corporation
where he was most recently Executive Vice President Discovery and Development. In that role he led Newmont’s
exploration and major project development. Since leaving Newmont in 2014, he has continued in this field providing
consulting services in base and precious metals project development.

Karen Wood said “Guy Lansdown’s extensive experience in early and late stage greenfield and brownfield project
development and delivery, together with his strong technical background and strategic leadership abilities, will
enhance the Board’s broad range of skills and experience. His appointment will support the Group’s growing presence
in the Americas as we continue to advance our exploration and development projects in the region.’’
