Sibanye Gold is trading 5.85% up at $11.20 after an August 18, 2026 regulatory milestone involving the New Beisa uranium-and-gold project.

  • South Africa’s mining minister approved Sibanye Gold’s Section 11 consent to transfer the Southern Free State mining right.
  • The approval advances the transaction with Neo Energy Metals and is the first of three required regulatory steps.
  • Broader markets remained risk-off amid rising yields and Middle East tensions.
