South Africa's Sibanye Gold might be interested in Acacia assets - CEO

WESTONARIA, South Africa, July 28 (Reuters) - South Africa's Sibanye Gold (Other OTC: SBGLF - news) might be interested in the assets of Barrick Gold (Hanover: ABR.HA - news) 's African unit Acacia Mining (LSE: ABG.L - news) , its chief executive said on Thursday.

"Yes, if there was value, certainly," Neal Froneman told Reuters when asked if Sibanye could be a potential buyer.

Barrick Gold, the world's largest gold producer, is weighing a sale of its majority stake in Acacia and has approached several South African miners, sources familiar with the situation told Reuters this week. (Reporting by Ed Stoddard; Writing by Joe Brock; Editing by James Macharia)
