Description: AU AngloGold Ashanti February 05, 2026
AngloGold Ashanti plc (NYSE:AU) is a global gold mining firm with operations across Africa, Australia, and the Americas, focusing on gold extraction and by-products such as silver and sulphuric acid. Its flagship asset is the 100 % owned Geita mine in Tanzania’s Lake Victoria goldfields. The company, incorporated in 1944, is headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado.
In 2023 the company produced approximately 2.5 million ounces of gold, reporting a cash cost of $950 per ounce and an all-in sustaining cost of $1,150 per ounce-both metrics that remain competitive given the current average gold price of roughly $2,000 per ounce (2024). AngloGold’s reserve life index stands at about 8 years, supported by ongoing exploration programs that added 300,000 ounces of proven and probable reserves in the last twelve months.
Key sector drivers include persistent inflationary pressures that keep gold attractive as an inflation hedge, and central-bank buying that has risen 12 % year-over-year, reinforcing demand fundamentals.
