Financial and Operating Report
OVERVIEW FOR THE QUARTER
FINANCIAL AND CORPORATE REVIEW
Strong performances from Continental Africa and South America, along with full exposure to a record gold price and
weaker currencies in Brazil and South Africa drove third quarter earnings and cash flow generation to their highest levels
ever during the third quarter. Adjusted headline earnings* (AHE), surged by 51% to $457m, or 118 US cents a share in
the three months to 30 September, compared with $303m, or 82 US cents the same period last year. The quarter’s AHE
includes a once-off net tax credit of $70m. Compared with the previous quarter, AHE were 34% higher.
Cash flow generated from operating activities surged to $863m during the period under review compared with an outflow
of $1.1bn a year earlier. Free cash flow, after all capital expenditure, finance costs and tax, was $300m. These robust
inflows helped further strengthen the group’s statement of financial position. Net debt (excluding the mandatory
convertible bond) was further reduced by $246m, to $620m at the end of the quarter. Capital expenditure of $408m was
spent during the quarter, taking the year-to-date expenditure to $1bn.
*Excluding hedge buy-back costs
DIVIDEND
While AngloGold Ashanti has a four-year, internally funded plan targeted at expanding production by about a million
ounces, its enhanced operating and financial performance has allowed the company the opportunity to further improve
returns to shareholders. Dividends will, with immediate effect, be paid quarterly rather than half-yearly, offering direct and
timeous participation in the improved financial performance and strong market fundamentals, while maintaining the ability
to both fund capital expenditure and preserve the company’s investment grade credit rating.
The board of directors is pleased to announce a dividend of 90 South African cents for the third quarter, equivalent to the
dividend paid in the first half of this year. The company anticipates paying the same dividend again for the fourth quarter,
which will represent a dividend of 270 South African cents for the year. This is an 86% increase on the South African
145 cent total dividend payment for all of 2010 and represents a cumulative annual compound growth rate in dividends
since 2008 of 39%.
Looking to 2012, the company will aim to improve the dividend payment yet again on the back of stronger gold prices
after providing for its capital expenditure requirements.
“Our power to generate earnings and strong cash flow is clear in these numbers,” Chief Executive Officer Mark Cutifani
said. “the upward jump in the dividend demonstrates the fundamental strength of the business and the market, while
maintaining the ability to fund our growth pipeline”.
OPERATING RESULTS
Production for the three months to 30 September 2011 was 1.092Moz at a total cash cost of $737/oz. This compares
with guidance of 1.11Moz at $775/oz and the previous quarter’s production of 1.086Moz at $705/oz. The previous
quarter’s costs received the once-off benefit of higher-grade feed at Geita to compensate for the SAG mill shutdown,
which was not repeated. The third quarter’s result was bolstered by strong performances at Geita in Tanzania, Iduapriem
in Ghana and from the Americas, where Cerro Vanguardia in Argentina was once again a standout as the group’s most
efficient producer. Nevertheless, Sunrise Dam’s recovery from flooding in the first half of the year was again slower than
anticipated, as was the ramp-up of production following the five-day wage-related strike which closed the South African
operations during August. In addition, winter power tariffs, higher payroll costs, increased royalties and lower by-product
credits also contributed to cost pressure on the South African unit cash costs.
SAFETY
Tragically, three fatalities occurred during the quarter, one each at Mponeng, Moab Khotsong and Kopanang. These
incidents underscore the importance of ongoing efforts to mitigate workplace risks through Project ONE and its emphasis
on planning and scheduling, as well as more visible and effective leadership at the operations. Significant strides
continue to be made in the group’s overall safety performance. The fatality injury frequency rate for the first nine months
of this year has improved by 46% over last year’s level, while for the September quarter, the all injury frequency rate
(AIFR) of 9.51 per million hours is the lowest on record. To date this year, the Continental Africa division improved its
AIFR by an impressive 39% over last year’s figure. Systemic improvement in the safety performance across the group is
becoming entrenched, though there remains much to be done to reach the target of zero harm.

OPERATING REVIEW
The South African operations produced 394,000oz at a total cash cost of $757/oz for the three months to 30 September
2011, compared with 431,000oz at $688/oz the previous quarter. The lower output resulted from the strike and an
increased number of government-imposed safety-related stoppages. Costs increased due to lower volumes, as well as
the winter power tariff, mid-year wage increases and higher royalty payments resulting from the strong gold price. By-
product contributions also decreased as uranium sales were partially deferred in anticipation of higher prices toward
year-end. At the West Wits Operations, production at Mponeng, declined 8% to 117,000oz at a total cash cost of
$587/oz, while the adjacent TauTona Mine, having dealt with increased seismicity during the quarter, produced 3% less
than the previous quarter at 58,000oz, at a total cash cost of $908/oz. At the Vaal River Operations, production at Great
Noligwa, disrupted by safety-related stoppages and geological constraints, closed 7% below the previous quarter at
25,000oz with total cash costs rising 17% to $1,255/oz. Moab Khotsong’s production declined by 5% compared to the
previous quarter at 71,000oz, with cost inflation contained at 8% despite the lower by-product contribution. Kopanang
experienced lower mining values, cutting production by 6% to 78,000oz. Cost increase was contained to 2% at $700/oz.
Surface Operations experienced a 33% decline in gold production to 32,000oz at $881/oz, following a decrease in grade
in the specific area reclaimed, as well as milling constraints.
The Continental Africa operations produced 411,000oz at a total cash cost of $739/oz in the third quarter of 2011,
compared with 377,000oz at a total cash cost of $705/oz the previous quarter. At Geita, significant increase in tonnages
following last quarter’s mill shutdown, helped boost production 39% to 149,000oz at a total cash cost of $473/oz.
Iduapriem increased production by 9% to 48,000oz at a total cash cost of $861/oz, with improved plant availability and
higher tonnage offsetting lower recovered grade. Obuasi saw a 6% drop in production to 78,000oz at a total cash cost of
$829/oz, due principally to lower grades and equipment availability underground. In Mali, production from Morila and
Sadiola was 4% and 6% lower, and as planned at Navachab, in Namibia, production and costs both improved due to
higher grades and tonnage throughput. Siguiri remains a challenge, with lower-than-anticipated grades from the Sintroko
pit contributing to a 15% drop in output to 56,000oz at a total cash cost of $949/oz.
The Americas operations produced 238,000oz at a total cash cost of $524/oz in the third quarter of 2011, compared with
216,000oz at a total cash cost of $487/oz the previous quarter. Cerro Vanguardia delivered another sterling performance
in Argentina’s difficult inflationary environment, increasing production by 8% to 52,000oz at $296/oz. Again, Project
ONE’s implementation helped improve efficiencies, particularly with regard to consumables, partly offsetting the impact of
inflation, lower by-product credits and higher royalty payments. At Brasil Mineração, higher tonnage and grades boosted
production by 20% to 101,000oz, whilst costs were 12% higher at $554/oz given continued inflationary impacts,
particularly on maintenance costs and payroll, following the annual salary increase in August. At Serra Grande, higher
grades and tonnages pushed production 7% higher to 15,000oz at $919/oz. At Cripple Creek & Victor gold production
was steady at 69,000oz, while cash costs increased 3% to $561/oz.
In Australia, Sunrise Dam continued to feel the impact of the flooding which damaged the pit wall earlier this year.
Mining in the open pit remained suspended while remediation work was undertaken. Production decreased by 18% to
50,000oz, while recovery work and lower output pushed total cash costs 3% higher to $1,568/oz.
PROJECTS
AngloGold Ashanti incurred capital expenditure of $408m during the quarter, of which $141m was spent on growth
projects. Of the growth-related capital, $68m was spent in the Americas, $22m was spent in Continental Africa, $25m in
Australasia and $26m in South Africa.
At the Kibali joint venture, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, good progress was made on the relocation of
villagers, with a total of 301 new houses completed in the Kokiza settlement. Construction also commenced on the
Catholic Church complex, roads and other infrastructure. Randgold Resources, AngloGold Ashanti’s partner and
operator of the project, aims to complete the final feasibility study on the project by month-end. AngloGold Ashanti’s
Business and Technical Development team will review the study in January 2012 before its submission to the board in
February.
The optimised feasibility study for the Mongbwalu project, also in the DRC, will also be submitted to the board for
approval in February. The project’s review panel recommended further work to improve the overall business strategy
together with a recommendation for the project team to obtain approval for the ‘Early Works’ programme. Cost estimates
and the project execution plan is under review by the project team, with a final review by the Business and Technical
Development team scheduled for December 2011 before board submission.
At the Córrego do Sítio project, in Brazil, the Concentrate circuit is operating, the carbon-in-leach circuit is cold
commissioned and crushing-milling-flotation areas handed over to the operating team. The mine ramp-up phase is also
on track, with plant production scheduled by the end of the year.

The Tropicana Gold Project in Australia continued on budget and schedule, with first gold production anticipated in the
second half of 2013. The principal design of the majority of engineering and infrastructure works were completed, the
contract was awarded for the construction of the accommodation camp and good progress continued on construction of
the 220km access road.
EXPLORATION
Total exploration expenditure during the third quarter, inclusive of expenditure at equity accounted joint ventures, was $96m
($35m on brownfield, $33m on greenfield and $28m on pre-feasibility studies), compared with $82m the previous quarter
($32m on brownfield, $27m on greenfield and $23m on pre-feasibility studies). The following are highlights from the
company’s exploration activities during the quarter. More detail on AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration programme can be
found at www.anglogoldashanti.com.
In Australia, at the Tropicana JV (AngloGold Ashanti 70%, Independence Group 30%), exploration targeted the Swizzler
target which lies between the Tropicana and Havana deposits and the Havana Deeps. Reconnaissance aircore drilling
and RC/diamond drilling of a number of key prospects also continued on the Tropicana JV tenements. At the wholly-
owned Viking project, several high priority geochemical anomalies were delineated, with drill testing scheduled for the
fourth quarter. At the Gawler JV with Stellar Resources (AngloGold Ashanti earning 75%), covering the Coronation Bore
and Gairdner projects in South Australia, results of aeromagnetic and ground gravity surveys will be used to define
targets for diamond drilling.
At Sunrise Dam, exploration continued to extend the known mineral resource underground, and target and follow-up on
significant intercepts returned from the deeper areas below the current workings (Vogue Prospect). The drilling for the
period totalled 18,174m. Early stage exploration work continued on a number of surface prospects both on and adjacent
to the mine.
In the Americas, the focus during the quarter remained on early stage exploration in Colombia, Canada, the United States,
Brazil and Argentina.
In North America, Greenfield exploration activities continued in Utah, Nunavut and Ontario. In the United States, at Cripple
Creek and Victor, a total of 21,685m were drilled. Several Reverse Circulation (RC) holes for the MLE-2 Programme
displayed significant ore grade gold mineralisation well below the 2011 WHEX and Grassy Valley Design Pit bottoms. The
results from these holes will help to deepen the current WHEX and Grassy Valley Design pit bottoms.
In Colombia, where the tenement position is about 16,000km
2
, exploration programmes were undertaken in five areas:
Quebradona, Anaima-Tocha, La Llanada, Rio Dulce and La Vega. Assay results from the Nuevo Chaquiro prospect at
Quebradona merit further drilling. In addition, 7,649 line km of airborne geophysics was completed over key projects in the
country. At Gramalote, the brownfields team conducted infill drilling at Gramalote Central and exploration drilling focused on
Monjas East, Monjas West, Trinidad and El Limon targets with 10,566m drilled. Several significant intercepts were obtained
from the reconnaissance drilling. Soil sampling and condemnation drilling continued in the Palestina Valley. At La Colosa,
drilling progressed well with 13,967m drilled and 27 boreholes completed. Five rigs are now operating on site. Very
significant intersections continued to be obtained on the edges of the previously defined system. These will add significantly
to the overall mineralised system.
Work was also undertaken on the Falcao joint venture with Horizonte minerals in Brazil, with diamond drilling yielding
promising results.
At Cerro Vanguardia in Argentina, 14,530m of drilling was completed. Thirteen veins were drilled with encouraging results in
both vein texture encountered and assay results. Trenching and channel sampling to facilitate drilling targeting was active
on eight different veins.
In the Solomon Islands, exploration continued at the Kele and Mase Joint Ventures with XDM Resources, where AngloGold
Ashanti earned a 51% interest in both projects. At Mase, 1,168m diamond drilling was undertaken in seven holes, at four
prospects. Hand dug trenching was completed and reconnaissance mapping carried out in five areas. Ground surveying
and mapping was completed for planned ground geophysical surveys. At Kele, diamond drilling continued with 745m
completed in six holes, at three prospects. Mechanical trenching was completed at one prospect and soil sampling was
completed in two areas.
In Sub-Saharan Africa regional exploration programmes were undertaken in Guinea, the DRC and Gabon. In Gabon, first
phase exploratory drilling was completed on the Ndjole and Mevang joint venture licences. Results include 2m @ 4.7 g/t Au
from 114m, 1m @ 3.42 g/t Au from 115m, 2m @ 1.59g/t Au from 84m, 1.5m @ 4.52g/t Au from 130.5m, 1.5m @ 1.26g/t Au
from 128m and 4.5m @ 1.94 g/t Au (including 1m @ 6.74 g/t Au from 40.5m).
In Guinea, regional greenfields exploration programmes were conducted in Blocks 2, 3 and 4 and the Corridor Block that
cover an area of some 1,600km
2
. The main activities included drilling at the Saraya project and the Kounkoun prospect
located in Blocks 2 and 3 respectively. Other activities included regional ground geophysics programmes and soil sampling
background image
on exploration licences. The assay backlog for samples from Saraya and Kounkoun is being cleared, with two rigs expected
to recommence drilling in the fourth quarter.
At neighbouring Siguiri, a total of 31,874m of brownfields drilling was also completed during the quarter. RC infill drilling
focused on upgrading the oxide mineral resources in Kozan Central West, with positive results. Fresh rock RC drilling
focused on the Tubani Extension and tested the potential for gold mineralisation in the fresh rock below the current pit to a
depth of approximately 150m. Fresh rock RCDD drilling focused on the old Kozan and Sintroko Push Backs pits. This aimed
to test fresh rock potential and depth extent of ore zones below the current pits, as well as to provide valuable structural
information on the mineralisation styles in the fresh rock. Drilling for metallurgical test work focused on Sokunu, Kozan and
Kami. These samples will be used to determine the optimum metallurgical processing routes and recoveries for new oxide,
transition and fresh ore. Geochemical soil sampling focused on the southeast of Block 1 to develop the resource pipeline.
In Mali, a total of 27,576m of drilling was completed at Yatela and Sadiola during the quarter. Substantial sterilisation drilling
was undertaken as part of development activities for both the Sadiola Sulphide Project and Yatela Gold Mine. Termite
mound sampling of 200m X 50m over the Yatela concession has advanced the geological understanding of the overall
Yatela land package and refined numerous targets adjacent to the current mining operations which will be aggressively
explored in the coming months. A project aimed at providing detailed alteration information supporting the metallurgical
database, as well as improving the understanding of the Sadiola orebody as a whole commenced during the quarter.
Spectral scanning of the Sadiola drill core is planned to achieve 70,000m by early 2012.
In the DRC, drilling, trenching and soil sampling on regional grids at the 5,866 km
2
AGK Kilo JV project, covering seven
prospects. Assay results were received for the Bakombe trenches with an encouraging intercept of 45m @ 1.5 g/t Au,
including 7m @ 3.0 g/t Au and 6m @ 2.1 g/t Au. Assay results from trenches in the Lodjo area include significant intercepts
of 25m @ 2.26g/t Au and 20m @ 2.8g/t Au.
Progress was also made by the brownfields team in the Mongbwalu project area, where about 1,212m of drilling was carried
out over the Adidi and Kanga Mineral Resource. Mine dewatering and metallurgical test work was undertaken in support of
the feasibility study.
At Kibali, 13,063m of drilling focused on feasibility work and underground infrastructure. Exploration drilling commenced on
a number of high priority satellite deposits. Exploration drilling was undertaken on the Kombokolo deposit, and at Agbarabo,
which was formerly the highest grade underground mine on the property reporting grades of more than 30g/t Au.
Greenfields exploration in the Middle East & North Africa region is being undertaken by the Thani Ashanti strategic alliance.
Exploration involved diamond drilling at the Hutite prospect, located on the Hodine licence in Egypt. A total of 2,498m of
diamond drilling was completed during the quarter. All significant results are from the Central Domain which stretches for
roughly 1km and remains open along strike and at depth. Three rigs will drill the Hodine licence during the fourth quarter.
Significant results at Hutite include 7m @ 7.05 g/t Au from 84m and 9m @ 1.35 g/t Au from 108m in HUD016, 3m @
7.23 g/t Au from 178m and 8m @ 18.57 g/t Au from 203m in HUD017, and 5m @ 3.0 g/t Au from 159m in HUD020.
The Afar JV with Stratex International, also yielded significant results at the Megenta project in Ethiopia. These include,
3.3m @ 4.45 g/t Au from 92m in Hole 12 (including 0.7m @ 19.5 g/t Au) and 44m @ 0.67 g/t Au from 68m in Hole 10
(including 0.3m @ 8.27 g/t Au & 3m @ 3.56 g/t Au).
In Ghana, the Brownfields team at Obuasi achieved 633m at its Below 50 Level exploration programme. The team also
commenced a Mineral Resource infill programme at the Anyankyerim deposit (1,084m), the results of which will inform a
feasibility study for the potential reopening of the Obuasi Oxide Treatment Plant.
At Geita, in Tanzania, 20,691m of drilling was completed during the quarter, focused on Mineral Resource infill drilling
around the mining operations and more regional exploration to support the growth strategy. Resource upgrade drilling was
carried out at Nyankanga cut 7 & 8, as well as the Geita Hill W2 deposits.
OUTLOOK
Given the increased safety stoppages in South Africa, the ongoing water shortages at CC&V and the slower ramp up at
Sunrise Dam, full year 2011 production is now estimated to be around 4.33Moz. Total cash costs are estimated at
between $735-$745/oz on the basis of weaker local operating currency assumptions for the year (R7.10/$, A$1.03/$,
BRL1.66/$ and AP4.12/$) and fuel at $111/barrel. This translates to a fourth quarter estimated production of
approximately 1.11Moz at a total cash cost of approximately $790/oz, this assumes an exchange rate of R7.50/$,
A$1.00/$, BRL1.75/$ and AP4.25/$ and fuel at $105/barrel. The increase in fourth quarter total cash costs are driven
mainly by deferred stripping and inventory charges.
As in prior years, the fourth quarter numbers will be distorted by year-end accounting adjustments such as re-
assessment of useful asset lives, rehabilitation, direct and indirect tax, and inventory provisions.

Review of the Gold Market
Gold price movement and investment markets
Gold price data
After rising only 4.5% from January to June, the third quarter saw a 30% advance in the gold price, which peaked at a
record $1,920/oz. The quarter was also marked by a sharp increase in gold price volatility, reflecting investor
nervousness and uncertainty. Fallout from the U.S. federal debt ceiling debacle was exacerbated when Standard &
Poor’s downgraded the country’s sovereign rating, citing political risk and a rising debt burden. Against this backdrop, the
European debt crisis accelerated as EU member states were indecisive about increasing the European Financial Stability
Facility and restructuring the sovereign debt obligations of some member states. The latter brought into focus the exposure
of the European banking sector to sovereign defaults and their concomitant systemic risk. Recent data show that hope of
recovery in the U.S. is precarious, with some commentators raising the likelihood of another recession. This slew of bad
news buffeted the commodity complex with the gold price a casualty as many investors preferred to move into cash.
Investment demand
The third quarter’s economic and debt woes reignited investor interest in ETFs. By the time the US sovereign rating
downgrade was announced, combined holdings of the major ETFs rose 6% to 72Mozs from the start of the quarter.
Subsequent additions were more modest and remained positive over the quarter. In India, the ETF market continued to
show steady growth and potential as a promising long-term source of gold demand. The COMEX positioning was more
volatile over the period, increasing from 24Mozs net long at the start of July to a peak of almost 34Moz around early August,
when the U.S. debt rating was downgraded. Significant liquidation, however, occurred during the last week of September,
taking the net long position down to 21.4Moz at quarter end. Bar and coin demand in the US remains firm. China on the
other hand continued to exhibit seemingly insatiable demand for imported kilobars, as the market continued to expand.
Jewellery manufacturers started producing investment bars for sale in retail outlets across China. In India, unprecedented
price volatility dampened investment demand. China also responded negatively to price volatility but still showed growth,
although not as high as in the second quarter.
Official sector
The official sector continued to be prominent on the demand side during the quarter. Thailand, Bolivia, Tajikistan and
Russia were all reported to have added to their reserves during August. One market analyst suggested that a higher
gold price does not necessarily impede central bank buying, particularly for those whose gold allocation is considered to
be relatively low. The end of the quarter saw the conclusion of the second year of the current Central Bank Agreement and
at the time of writing, no third-quarter sales under this agreement could be confirmed. Sales for the second year totalled just
over 53 tonnes, 52 of which came from the IMF.
Jewellery sales
After seven consecutive quarters of growth, the Indian market experienced its first contraction in the third quarter. This is
traditionally a slower period as the trade sector starts to stock up for Diwali. This year, however, rupee gold-price volatility
caused many to defer purchases, with some retailers’ stock levels at half of what they were at the same time last year. It is
estimated that the quarter under review will see a 20% to 25% year-on-year fall in demand. In China, notwithstanding
volatility, the jewellery market was estimated to have grown some 5-8%. August and September saw strong sales as the
market moved into the peak sales time around the National Day holiday. Manufacturers experienced strong sales during the
Shenzhen Jewellery Fair, with sales during that week estimated at some 40-50 tonnes. The trade remained upbeat and
sought to manage gold price volatility by cautiously timing purchases and managing stock levels accordingly. A number of
Chinese retailers have launched franchise operations to expand their reach. Gold price volatility also dampened demand in
the U.S. jewellery sector but the quarter under review registered modest growth. The bifurcation of the market into high- and
low-end continued, with silver continuing to dominate the lower end while higher-end gold retailers still enjoyed firm sales
despite the economic malaise.

Includes capital commitments relating to equity accounted joint ventures.
Liquidity and capital resources
To service the above capital commitments and other operational requirements, the group is dependent on existing
cash resources, cash generated from operations and borrowing facilities.
Cash generated from operations is subject to operational, market and other risks. Distributions from operations may
be subject to foreign investment, exchange control laws and regulations and the quantity of foreign exchange
available in offshore countries. In addition, distributions from joint ventures are subject to the relevant board
approval.
The credit facilities and other finance arrangements contain financial covenants and other similar undertakings. To
the extent that external borrowings are required, the group’s covenant performance indicates that existing financing
facilities will be available to meet the above commitments. To the extent that any of the financing facilities mature in
the near future, the group believes that sufficient measures are in place to ensure that these facilities can be
refinanced.

AngloGold Ashanti is subject to contingencies pursuant to environmental laws and regulations that may in future
require the group to take corrective action as follows:
(1)   Groundwater pollution – AngloGold Ashanti has identified groundwater contamination plumes at certain of its
operations, which have occurred primarily as a result of seepage from mine residue stockpiles. Numerous
scientific, technical and legal studies have been undertaken to assist in determining the magnitude of the
contamination and to find sustainable remediation solutions. The group has instituted processes to reduce future
potential seepage and it has been demonstrated that Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) by the existing
environment will contribute to improvement in some instances. Furthermore, literature reviews, field trials and base
background image
line modelling techniques suggest, but are not yet proven, that the use of phyto-technologies can address the soil
and groundwater contamination. Subject to the completion of trials and the technology being a proven remediation
technique, no reliable estimate can be made for the obligation.
(2)   Deep groundwater pollution – The company has identified a flooding and future pollution risk posed by deep
groundwater in the Klerksdorp and Far West Rand gold fields. Various studies have been undertaken by
AngloGold Ashanti since 1999. Due to the interconnected nature of mining operations, any proposed solution
needs to be a combined one supported by all the mines located in these gold fields. As a result the Department of
Mineral Resources and affected mining companies are now involved in the development of a “Regional Mine
Closure Strategy”. In view of the limitation of current information for the accurate estimation of a liability, no reliable
estimate can be made for the obligation.
(3)   Sales tax on gold deliveries – Mineração Serra Grande S.A. (MSG), received two tax assessments from the State
of Goiás related to payments of sales taxes on gold deliveries for export. AngloGold Ashanti C rrego do Sit o
Mineração S.A. manages the operation and its attributable share of the first assessment is approximately $52m,
R423m (Sep 2010: $53m, R369m). The company’s attributable share of the second assessment is approximately
$32m, R261m (Sep 2010: $32m, R223m). In November 2006 the administrative council’s second chamber ruled
in favour of MSG and fully cancelled the tax liability related to the first period. In July 2011, the administrative
council’s second chamber ruled in favour of MSG and fully cancelled the tax liability related to the second period.
The State of Goiás has appealed to the full board of the State of Goiás tax administrative council. The company
believes both assessments are in violation of federal legislation on sales taxes.
(4)   Other tax disputes – MSG received a tax assessment in October 2003 from the State of Minas Gerais related to
sales taxes on gold. The tax administrators rejected the company’s appeal against the assessment. The company
is now appealing the dismissal of the case. The company’s attributable share of the assessment is approximately
$9m, R72m (Sep 2010: $9m, R63m).
AngloGold Ashanti subsidiaries in Brazil are involved in various disputes with tax authorities. These disputes
involve federal tax assessments including income tax, royalties, social contributions and annual property tax. The
amount involved is approximately $26m, R214m (Sep 2010: $23m, R160m).
(5)   Indirect taxes – AngloGold Ashanti (Ghana) Limited received a tax assessment for $11m, R86m (Sep 2010: $10m,
R70m) during September 2009 in respect of 2006, 2007 and 2008 tax years, following an audit by the tax
authorities related to indirect taxes on various items. Management is of the opinion that the indirect taxes are not
payable and the company has lodged an objection.
(6)   Occupational Diseases in Mines and Works Act (ODMWA) litigation - The case of Mr Thembekile Mankayi was
heard in the High Court of South Africa in June 2008, and an appeal heard in the Supreme Court of Appeals in
2010. In both instances judgement was awarded in favour of AngloGold Ashanti Limited. A further appeal that was
lodged by Mr Mankayi was heard in the Constitutional Court in 2010. Judgement in the Constitutional Court was
handed down on 3 March 2011.
Following the judgement, Mr Mankayi’s executor may proceed with his case in the High Court. This will comprise,
amongst others, providing evidence showing that Mr Mankayi contracted silicosis as a result of negligent conduct
on the part of AngloGold Ashanti.
The company will defend the case and any subsequent claims on their merits. Should other individuals or groups
lodge similar claims, these too would be defended by the company and adjudicated by the Courts on their merits.
In view of the limitation of current information for the accurate estimation of a possible liability, no reliable estimate
can be made for this possible obligation.
(7)   Royalty – Boddington Gold Mine – As a result of the sale of the interest in the Boddington Gold Mine joint venture
during 2009, the group is entitled to receive a royalty on any gold recovered or produced by the Boddington Gold
Mine, where the gold price is in excess of Boddington Gold Mine’s cash cost plus $600/oz. The royalty
commenced on 1 July 2010 and is capped at a total amount of $100m, R788m, of which $26m, R188m (Sep 2010:
$2m, R13m) has been received to date. Royalties of $9m, R64m (Sep 2010: $2m, R13m) were received during the
quarter.
(8)   Royalty – Tau Lekoa Gold Mine – As a result of the sale of the interest in the Tau Lekoa Gold Mine during 2010,
the group is entitled to receive a royalty on the production of a total of 1.5 million ounces by the Tau Lekoa Gold
Mine and in the event that the average monthly rand price of gold exceeds R180,000/kg (subject to inflation
adjustment). Where the average monthly rand price of gold does not exceed R180,000/kg (subject to inflation
adjustment), the ounces produced in that quarter do not count towards the total 1.5 million ounces upon which the
royalty is payable.
The royalty will be determined at 3% of the net revenue (being gross revenue less State royalties) generated by
the Tau Lekoa assets. Royalties of $1m, R8m (Sep 2010: Nil) were received during the quarter.
(9)   Provision of surety – The company has provided sureties in favour of a lender on a gold loan facility with its affiliate
Oro Group (Pty) Limited and one of its subsidiaries to a maximum value of $12m, R100m (Sep 2010: $14m,
R100m). The suretyship agreements have a termination notice period of 90 days.

15.    Concentration of risk
There is a concentration of risk in respect of recoverable value added tax and fuel duties from the Tanzanian
government:
Recoverable value added tax due from the Tanzanian government amounts to $44m, R357m at 30 September
2011 (Sep 2010: $48m, R334m). The last audited value added tax return was for the period ended 28 February
2011 and at the reporting date the audited amount was $58m, R470m (Sep 2010: $47m, R327m). The
outstanding amounts at Geita have been discounted to their present value at a rate of 7.82%.
Recoverable fuel duties from the Tanzanian government amounts to $73m, R592m at 30 September 2011
(Sep 2010: $55m, R383m). Fuel duty claims are required to be submitted after consumption of the related fuel
and are subject to authorisation by the Customs and Excise authorities. Claims for the refund of fuel duties
amounting to $61m, R495m (Sep 2010: $42, R292m) have been lodged with the Customs and Excise authorities
which are still outstanding, whilst claims for a refund of $12m, R97m (Sep 2010: $13m, R90m) have not yet been
submitted. The amounts outstanding have been discounted to their present value at a rate of 7.82%.
16.    Borrowings
AngloGold Ashanti’s borrowings are interest bearing.
17.    Announcements
Appointment to the board of directors: On 31 August 2011, AngloGold Ashanti announced the appointment of
Ms Nozipho January-Bardill to the board with effect from 1 October 2011.
18.    Dividend
Interim Dividend No. 110 of 90 South African cents or 7.6182 UK pence or 19.188 cedis per ordinary share was

Depositary Interest (CDI) was paid on the same day. On 12 September 2011, holders of Ghanaian Depositary
Shares (GhDS) were paid 0.19188 cedis per GhDS. Each CDI represents one-fifth of an ordinary share, and 100
GhDSs represents one ordinary share. A dividend of 12.0812 US cents per American Depositary Share (ADS) was
paid to holders of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) on 19 September 2011. Each ADS represents one

Shareholders are requested to notify the relevant share registrars with banking details to enable future dividends to
be paid via electronic funds transfer. Refer to the back cover for share registrar details.
Dividends in respect of dematerialised shareholdings will be credited to shareholders' accounts with the relevant
CSDP or broker.
To comply with further requirements of Strate, between Monday, 28 November 2011 and Friday, 2 December
2011, both days inclusive, no transfers between the South African, United Kingdom, Australian and Ghana share
registers will be permitted and no ordinary shares pertaining to the South African share register may be
dematerialised or rematerialised.

Rounding of figures may result in computational discrepancies.
From time to time AngloGold Ashanti Limited may publicly disclose certain "Non-GAAP" financial measures in the course of its financial presentations, earnings releases, earnings
conference calls and otherwise.
The group uses certain Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios in managing the business and may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons
between current results and results in prior operating periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the reported operating results or
cash flow from operations or any other measure of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures that other companies use.
During 2010 the Group completed the elimination of its hedge book which has resulted in full exposure to prevailing spot gold prices.
Adjusted headline earnings
Quarter ended
Nine months ended
(Gain) loss on non-hedge derivatives and other commodity contracts in the income statement comprise the change in fair value of all non-hedge derivatives and other commodity contracts as
follows:
SA Rand million
The unrealised fair value change on the option component of the convertible bonds;
Nine months ended
US Dollar million
Quarter ended
In the September 2010 quarter the hedge book was further reduced and contracts to the value of $1.6bn were accelerated and settled. The impact on earnings after taxation was $1.5bn in
the September 2010 quarter. In the December 2010 quarter the hedge book was fully settled and hedge contracts to the value of $1.1bn were accelerated and settled. The impact on
earnings after taxation was $1.1bn in the December 2010 quarter;
The unrealised fair value change of the warrants on shares and the embedded derivative.
Open positions: The change in fair value from the previous reporting date or date of recognition (if later) through to the current reporting date; and
Adjusted headline earnings is intended to illustrate earnings after adjusting for:
SA Rand million
Settled positions: The change in fair value from the previous reporting date or date of recognition (if later) through to the date of settlement.
The unrealised fair value change in contracts that were still open at reporting dates, as well as, the unwinding of the historic marked-to-market value of the position settled in the period;
Investment in hedge restructure transaction: During the hedge restructure in December 2004 and March 2005 quarters, $83m and $69m in cash was injected respectively into the hedge
book in these quarters to increase the value of long-dated contracts. The entire investment in long-dated derivatives (certain of which have now matured), for the purposes of the adjustment
to earnings, will only be taken into account when the realised portion of long-dated non-hedge derivatives are settled, and not when the short-term contracts were settled;

Certain statements made in 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 outlook of AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, individually or in the aggregate, including the completion and commencement of commercial
operations of certain of AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration and production projects and the completion of announced mergers and acquisitions transactions, AngloGold Ashanti’s liquidity, capital
resources and capital expenditure and the outcome and consequences of any litigation or regulatory proceedings or environmental issues, 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
including environmental approvals and actions, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, and business and operational risk management. For a discussion of certain of these and other factors,
refer to AngloGold Ashanti's annual report for the year ended 31 December 2010, which was distributed to shareholders on 29 March 2011 and the company’s 2010 annual report on Form 20-
F, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States on 31 May 2011. These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause AngloGold
Ashanti’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could also have material adverse effects on future
results. 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. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to AngloGold Ashanti or any person acting on its behalf are qualified by the cautionary
statements herein.

This communication contains certain “Non-GAAP” financial measures. AngloGold Ashanti utilises certain Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios in managing its business. Non-GAAP financial
measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the reported operating results or cash flow from operations or any other measures of performance prepared in accordance
with IFRS. In addition, the presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures other companies may use.

AngloGold Ashanti posts information that is important to investors on the main page of its website at www.anglogoldashanti.com and under the “Investors” tab on the main page. This information is
