SIBANYE Gold, a relative newcomer to the JSE, will become a constituent of the top 40 index on September 19, ranked at number 34.CEO Neil Froneman said this was a significant milestone for the miner."Considering the relatively short history since the group listed in February 2013 with a market capitalisation of less than R10bn, to now be recognised as one of the 40 largest companies listed on the JSE, is something I am extremely proud of and highlights the significant returns Sibanye has delivered to shareholders," he said."Sibanye investors have received total returns from share price appreciation and dividends of over 350% in the last three-and-a-half years, or a compound annual growth rate of over 50% per annum."Sibanye, created when Gold Fields unbundled its South African assets, will now be a compulsory investment for tracker funds.
