Anglo - production report
Anglo reported a strong fourth quarter for 2025, with total copper production at 695 200 tonnes, within guidance, despite a 14% decrease year-on-year due to lower ore grades at Quellaveco and Collahuasi. Premium iron ore output rose 6% to 15.1 million tonnes, driven by Kumba’s higher production. Manganese ore increased 22% to 908 500 tonnes. Diamonds declined 35% to 3.8 million carats, mainly due to maintenance shutdowns, while steelmaking coal decreased 15% to 2.1 million tonnes, impacted by asset sales and weather. Nickel production rose 3% to 10 300 tonnes. The company continues its portfolio transformation, progressing with the sale of its steelmaking coal and nickel businesses, and the separation of De Beers. For 2026, guidance anticipates copper output of 700 000-760 000 tonnes, with iron ore at 55-59 million tonnes.
