Gold producer AngloGold Ashanti reported on Friday that a worker had been killed at its Moab Khotsong mine, in the Free State province.
The miner was fatally injured while carrying out his duties at a working face some 2 277 m below surface.
No other employees were injured in the course of the accident.
This marked the fifth fatal mining accident in as many days in the South African gold industry.
On Thursday, AngloGold Ashanti reported that a night shift cleaner at its Tau Lekoa mine, in the North West province, had been killed when two locomotives collided at a cross cut, 1 350 m below surface.
The Moab Khotsong mine was expected to reach full production of about 14 000 kg of gold, by 2013.
