Description: AU AngloGold Ashanti

AngloGold Ashanti plc is a gold mining company with operations across Africa, Australia, and the Americas. In addition to its primary focus on gold, the company also produces by-products such as silver and sulphuric acid, which can help offset production costs in the gold mining sector. It is listed on the NYSE under the ticker AU and falls within the GICS Materials sector, specifically the gold sub-industry.

The companys flagship asset is the 100% owned Geita mine, located in the Lake Victoria goldfields of northwestern Tanzania, one of Africas most established gold-producing regions. AngloGold Ashanti was incorporated in 1944 and is headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado. As a large-cap materials company, its financial performance tends to track closely with movements in the global gold price.
