RESTATEMENT OF RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2008 
- REDUCTION IN HEADLINE LOSS                                                    
The unaudited results for the quarter and six months ended 30 June 2008 were    
released on SENS on 31 July 2008. Following the publication of these results    
, AngloGold Ashanti has reassessed the accounting estimate for income taxes,    
for the effects and impact of the accelerated non-hedge derivative settlements  
in accordance with IAS34 - Interim Financial Reporting. Following this          
reassessment, the in come tax expense has been reduced by R641 million (US$81m) 
for the period. This is as a result of IAS34 requiring that the income tax      
expense for interim reporting purposes to be calculated by applying to an       
interim period`s pre - tax income, the estimated average annual effective       
income tax rate that would be applicable to the expected total annual earnings. 
It should be noted that the overprovision would have been reversed by financial 
year-end and therefore would not have had any effect on the full year`s income  
tax expense and earnings. Nevertheless, in compliance with IAS34, AngloGold     
Ashanti has decided to revise its results for the quarter and six months        
ended 30 June 2008.                                                             
The effect of the reassessment is as follows:

Certain statements made during this communication, including, without           
limitation, those concerning the economic outlook for the gold mining industry, 
expectations regarding gold prices, production, cash costs and other operating  
results, growth prospects and the outlook of AngloGold Ashanti`s operations     
including the completion and commencement of commercial operations of certain   
of AngloGold Ashanti`s exploration and production projects, and its liquidity   
and capital resources and expenditure, contain certain forward-looking          
statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti`s operations, economic performance and   
financial condition. Although AngloGold Ashanti believes that the expectations  
reflected in such forward - looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can 
be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly,   
results could differ materially from those set out in the forward - looking     
statements as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic and market  
conditions, success of business and operating initiatives, changes in the       
regulatory environment and other government actions, fluctuations in gold       
prices and exchange rates, and business and operational risk management. For a  
discussion of such factors, refer to AngloGold Ashanti`s annual report for the  
year ended 31 December 2007 , which was distributed to shareholders on 31 March 
2008. AngloGold Ashanti undertakes no obligation to update publicly or release  
any revisions to these forward - looking statements to reflect events or        
circumstances after today`s date or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated  
events.
