AngloGold Ashanti and Iamgold to sell stake in Mali mine

Mining company AngloGold Ashanti and its joint venture partner Iamgold plan to sell their stake in the Sadiola project in Mali for $105-million, as the South African company looks to streamline its portfolio.

AngloGold and Iamgold, which each hold 41% in the asset with the remaining 18% held by Mali’s government, plan to sell their stake in the operation, whose principal asset is the Sadiola Mine, to Allied Gold.
