Exhibit 99.(a)(24)

(GOLDFIELDS LOGO)

13 Days Until Christmas...
Where
IS Harmony’s Reserves Statement?

9 November 2004
“Harmony’s CPR (the independent Competent Persons Report) I am told will be out in early December.”
Bernard Swanepoel, Chief Executive Officer, Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited

10 December 2004
Gold Fields’ Board notes with dismay that Gold Fields shareholders still don’t have audited information about Harmony’s reserves. Gold Fields shareholders cannot evaluate Harmony’s offer without accurate information on Harmony’s reserves.

Has ANYONE seen Harmony’s audited
Reserves and Resources Statement?

Why is this taking so long?

REJECT THE HARMONY OFFER. DO NOT TENDER YOUR SHARES.
