Anglo American is a global and diversified mining business that provides the raw materials
essential for economic development and modern life. Our people are at the heart of our
business. It is our people who use the latest technologies to find new resources, plan and
build our mines and who mine, process and move and market our products – from bulk
commodities and base metals to precious metals and diamonds (through De Beers) – to our
customers around the world. Our diversified portfolio of products spans the economic
development cycle and, as a responsible miner, we are the custodians of precious resources.
We work together with our key partners and stakeholders to unlock the long-term value
that those resources represent for our shareholders, but also for the communities and
countries in which we operate – creating sustainable value and making a real difference.
Our mining operations, growth projects and exploration and marketing activities extend
across southern Africa, South America, Australia, North America, Asia and Europe.
