High level of interest in South African gold assets – AngloGold

Gold-mining company AngloGold Ashanti is working hard to be a solid, predictable business that generates value through the cycle, CEO Kelvin Dushnisky emphasised to journalists on Thursday, as the company proceeded to dispose of all of its remaining South African assets, along with holdings in Argentina and Mali. While Dushnisky emphasised that the assets would be retained if the bids for them failed to reflect their value, he spoke of being pleased with the high level of interest from credible parties in AngloGold’s last two South African mining assets – Mponeng, the world’s deepest mine, and surface operations, which include Mine Waste Solutions.
