Rights
LONDON, 18 MAY 2023


Gemfields announces that on 17 May 2023, the Company purchased 1,729,550 of its own ordinary
shares of USD0.00001 each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of ZAR3.45. These
Ordinary Shares will be held as treasury shares before being periodically cancelled. Any
cancellations will be announced separately.


Following this purchase, the total number of Ordinary Shares held in treasury by the Company is
1,729,550. The total number of Ordinary Shares in issue is 1,218,586,612, including treasury
shares.


Therefore, the number of Ordinary Shares that carry the right to one vote is 1,216,857,062. This
is the total voting rights figure which may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the
calculations by which they can determine whether they are required to notify their interests in, or
a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA’s Disclosure Guidance and
Transparency Rules.
