Enclosure:  AngloGold Ashanti FY 2023 Preliminary Financial Update; Announcement of Non-Reliance on

Previously Issued Financial Statements

AngloGold Ashanti plc (“AngloGold Ashanti”, “AGA” or the “Company”) delivered a strong improvement in production, total operating

cost and free cash flow* in the second half of 2023 versus the first half of 2023 and declared a 9.1Moz gold Inferred Mineral

Resource(2) at the Merlin deposit, nearly doubling its overall Nevada Mineral Resource(2) of gold.

Free cash inflow* of $314m in the six months ended 31 December 2023 compared with free cash outflow* of $205m in the six months

ended 30 June 2023 as gold production(1) rose 15% and total cash costs per ounce*(1) fell 9% in the same period. Total cash costs per

ounce* fell 7% for subsidiaries(1) and 16% for joint ventures in the second half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2023.

Geita, Iduapriem, Kibali and Tropicana made strong improvements in the second half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2023, with

Cuiabá delivering production above plan and Siguiri returning in early November 2023 to full capacity following a carbon-in-leach

(“CIL”) tank failure in its processing plant in May 2023.

“Free cash flow* was strong in the second half of 2023, with production up, total operating costs down and a major new discovery in

Nevada,” said Chief Executive Officer Alberto Calderon. “We were again able to safely deliver on our production commitments, which

is important for any business looking to build credibility.”

Safety also improved. The Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (“TRIFR”) of 1.09 injuries per million hours worked for 2023 was

13% better than 2022. No fatal injuries were reported in 2023 at mines operated by the Company, for the second consecutive year.

AngloGold Ashanti is working to narrow the valuation gap with its North American-based peers by improving relative cost

performance, moving its primary listing to the United States, proposing a joint venture in Ghana to potentially create Africa’s largest

gold mine, closing loss-making operations and investing in new projects to grow production and improve margins.

Significant Growth in Nevada

The Company made an important new gold discovery in the United States, declaring a gold Inferred Mineral Resource(2) of 9.1Moz at

an average grade of 0.99g/t, at the Merlin deposit in Nevada. This new find takes AngloGold Ashanti’s total gold Mineral Resource(2)

in the Beatty District in Nevada to a total of 16.6Moz(3) at 31 December 2023.

“This is the largest new discovery in the United States in more than a decade,” said CEO Alberto Calderon. “We’ve found a lot of

gold, at a very good grade, in one of the best jurisdictions in the world; it’s potentially a game changer.”

The Company’s board of directors approved the North Bullfrog feasibility study, subject to receipt of necessary permits and approvals.

The project, which is anticipated to be the first of the Company’s Nevada operations to enter production, is expected  to produce an

Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”)(4) of 13% assuming a gold price of $1,600/oz. Regulatory approvals are anticipated during the first half

of 2025.

Stronger Second Half as Planned

Second-half gold production(1) for the group increased 15% over the first half of 2023, bringing total gold production(1) for 2023 to

2.593Moz, within the 2023 guidance range(1). Solid performances across most of the portfolio helped offset the impact of challenges

at Siguiri in the first half of 2023 and the impact of poor ground conditions at Obuasi in the second half of 2023.

Obuasi started to make a good recovery in the fourth quarter of 2023, gaining fresh momentum following the slowdown in the third

quarter of 2023 when poor ground conditions were encountered in some high-grade areas. Gold production in the fourth quarter of

2023 was 61,000oz, a 33% increase over the third quarter of 2023.

Total cash costs per ounce* were $1,154/oz for subsidiaries(1) and $802/oz for joint ventures in 2023. Total cash costs per ounce*(1)

for the group at $1,108/oz in 2023 was below the top end of guidance(1).

Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements

During the FY 2023 year-end audit process, AngloGold Ashanti found a potential error in the calculation of a deferred tax asset with respect to

the Obuasi mine, which impacts its FY 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and H1 2023 unaudited condensed consolidated

interim financial statements by a total of up to approximately $146m in earnings. The potential error is non-cash in nature and has no impact

on production, costs or cash flow.

AngloGold Ashanti remains in discussions regarding this matter with its previous auditor, Ernst & Young Inc., about if and how much of this

potential error should be accounted for in the FY 2022 audited consolidated financial statements, after which unaudited condensed

consolidated preliminary financial statements for the six months and the year ended 31 December 2023 will be released.

For further information, refer to “Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements” on p.12 below.

AngloGold Ashanti delivers strong second half improvement,

generating $314m free cash flow*; Nevada gold Mineral Resource(2)

nearly doubles to 16.6Moz(3) boosted by 9.1Moz gold Inferred Mineral

Resource(2) discovery at Merlin

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

OVERVIEW

AngloGold Ashanti is pleased to report a significantly improved second half of 2023 compared to the first half of the year, including improved

production, total operating cost and free cash flow* during the second half of the year. The Company more than offset the free cash outflow*

of $205m in the first half of 2023, generating $314m in free cash inflow* in the second half of 2023. Free cash flow* generation in 2023

amounted to free cash inflow* of $109m, compared to free cash inflow* of $657m in 2022.

Gold production1 for the group increased by 15% in the second half of 2023 to 1.388Moz from 1.205Moz in the first half of 2023, bringing

total gold production1 for the group to 2.593Moz for the year ended 31 December 2023, ending 2023 above the guidance range1.

The operational result in the second half of 2023 was underpinned by strong performances from Iduapriem, Kibali, Cuiabá, Tropicana and

Geita compared to the first half of 2023. Gold production1 for the group decreased by 3% in 2023 to 2.593Moz from 2.672Moz in 2022,

mainly due to one-off challenges at Siguiri, which experienced a CIL tank failure in its processing plant in May 2023 and Obuasi, where poor

ground conditions in high grade areas during the second half of 2023 had an adverse impact on gold production and total operating costs.

Processing at Siguiri returned to full capacity at the beginning of November 2023. Obuasi started to make a good recovery, with a 33%

increase in gold production from 46,000oz in the third quarter of 2023 to 61,000oz in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Total cash costs per ounce* for subsidiaries1 improved by 7% in the second half of 2023 to $1,112/oz, compared to $1,202/oz in the first half

of 2023. Total cash costs per ounce* for joint ventures improved by 16% in the second half of 2023 to $741/oz, compared to $880/oz in the

first half of 2023. Total cash costs per ounce*1 for the group improved 9% in the second half of 2023 to $1,060/oz, compared with $1,162/oz

in the first half of 2023. Total cash costs per ounce* for subsidiaries1 increased 11% in 2023 to $1,154/oz, compared to $1,040/oz in 2022.

Total cash costs per ounce* for joint ventures increased 11% in 2023 to $802/oz, compared to $725/oz in 2022. Total cash costs*1 for the

group increased 11% in 2023 to $1,108/oz, compared with $1,000/oz in 2022. This increase was mainly due to lower production and higher

total operating costs as a result of higher labour and contractors’ costs, commodity prices, logistics costs, consumable stores, services,

other charges and royalty payments.

All-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) per ounce* for subsidiaries1 increased 1% in the second half of 2023 to $1,633/oz, compared to $1,622/oz in

the first half of 2023. AISC per ounce* for joint ventures decreased 19% in the second half of 2023 to $862/oz, compared to $1,060/oz in the

first half of 2023. AISC per ounce*1 for the group decreased 2% in the second half of 2023 to $1,526/oz, compared with $1,551/oz in the first

half of 2023. AISC per ounce* for subsidiaries1 increased 17% in 2023 to $1,628/oz, compared to $1,396/oz in 2022. AISC per ounce* for

joint ventures decreased 3% in 2023 to $951/oz, compared to $979/oz in 2022. AISC per ounce*1 for the group increased 14% in 2023 to

$1,538/oz, compared with $1,344/oz in 2022. This increase was mainly due to higher total operating costs, higher sustaining capital

expenditure and lower gold sold.

AngloGold Ashanti has undertaken a multi-year initiative to increase its investment in Mineral Reserve development and brownfield

exploration. The aim of this investment is to increase the rate of Mineral Reserve conversion, extend the Mineral Reserve lives of its mines

and further enhance mining flexibility and understanding of the future potential of the ore bodies in the portfolio. This exploration initiative

has yielded the discovery of 14.4Moz of gold Mineral Reserve, before depletion, over the past four years at a cost of $62/oz.

The Company’s gold Mineral Reserve decreased from 28.8Moz at 31 December 2022 to 28.1Moz at 31 December 2023. Additions of

2.5Moz to the gold Mineral Reserve includes 2.0Moz from exploration and modelling changes and 0.5Moz due to other impacts. The 2.0Moz

from exploration and modelling changes includes the first-time reporting of the North Bullfrog gold Mineral Reserve of 1.0Moz after the

successful completion and approval of a feasibility study. Reductions include depletion of 2.9Moz and economic assumptions of 0.3Moz. As

a result, the net year-on-year gold Mineral Reserve reduction is 0.7Moz.

AngloGold Ashanti’s gold Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource2 decreased from 60.6Moz at 31 December 2022 to 59.9Moz at

31 December 2023. Additions include exploration and modelling of 1.5Moz. Reductions include the sale of Gramalote of 2.0Moz, and

economic assumptions of 0.2Moz. As a result, the net year-on-year gold Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource2 reduction is 0.7Moz.

AngloGold Ashanti’s Inferred Mineral Resource2 for gold increased from 40.8Moz at 31 December 2022 to 46.4Moz at 31 December 2023.

Additions include exploration and modelling changes of 8.7Moz. The additions were partially offset by reductions which include the sale of

Gramalote of 0.6Moz, changes in economic assumptions of 1.3Moz and other factors of 1.2Moz. As a result, the net year-on-year gold

Inferred Mineral Resource2 addition is 5.6Moz. The gold Inferred Mineral Resource2 includes for the first time the Inferred Mineral Resource2

of 9.1Moz at 0.99g/t declared at the Merlin deposit in the Expanded Silicon project after the successful completion and approval of an initial

assessment.

During 2023, the Company achieved a number of key milestones:

Completed the move of its primary listing to the New York Stock Exchange; headquartered in Denver, CO
Group guidance1 achieved on gold production1 and total cash costs per ounce*1
First-time 9.1Moz gold Inferred Mineral Resource2 declaration at the Merlin deposit, 284Mt at a 0.99g/t grade
North Bullfrog feasibility study approved, construction contingent on requisite permitting expected in Q1 2025
Announced the proposed JV between Iduapriem and Gold Fields’ Tarkwa mine, potentially creating Africa’s largest gold mine
Gold Mineral Reserve increased 2.2Moz pre-depletion, totaling 14.4Moz added over the last four years at a cost of $62/oz
Generated $314m free cash inflow* in H2 2023, more than reversing the free cash outflow* of $205m in H1 2023
Dividend of 19 US cents per share in respect of H2 2023; 2023 dividend 23 US cents per share
Commenced Tropicana renewable energy project; the project is expected to halve natural gas consumption at the site on<br><br>completion

Full year review

Gold production

Gold production1 for the group for the year ended 31 December 2023 was 2.593Moz compared to 2.672Moz for the year ended 31

December 2022. The 3% decline in gold production for the group year-on-year was mainly due to lower ore tonnes processed and lower

recovered grades.

Gold production was higher at Sunrise Dam (+9%), Iduapriem (+8%), Cuiabá (+5%), Kibali (+2%) and Tropicana (+1%).  This increase in

gold production was more than offset by lower production at Siguiri (-21%), Cerro Vanguardia (-11%), Obuasi (-10%), Geita (-7%) and Serra

Grande (-2%). This excludes the production impact of placing Córrego do Sítio (CdS) on care and maintenance in August 2023.

Costs

Total cash costs per ounce* for subsidiaries1 were $1,154/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared with $1,040/oz for the year

ended 31 December 2022.  Total cash costs per ounce* for subsidiaries1 were higher year-on-year mainly due to lower production, higher

total operating costs as a result of higher labour and contractors’ costs, commodity prices, logistics costs, power costs, consumable stores,

services, other charges and royalty payments, the strengthening of the Brazilian real against the US dollar, higher waste stripping costs at

Tropicana in line with plan, as well as additional costs related to Brazil and the CIL tank failure at Siguiri. This increase was partially offset by

the weakening of the South African rand, the Australian dollar and the Argentinean peso against the US dollar, lower fuel cost and favourable

inventory movements. Total cash costs per ounce* for joint ventures were $802/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared with

$725/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Total cash costs per ounce* for joint ventures were higher year-on-year mainly due to higher

total operating costs as a result of higher labour and contractors’ costs, commodity prices, logistics costs, consumable stores, services,

other charges, fuel costs and royalty payments, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives in both underground and open-pit mining and

higher gold production. Total cash costs per ounce*1 for the group in 2023 were $1,108/oz, compared with $1,000/oz in 2022. Total cash

costs per ounce*1 for the group in 2023 were higher year-on-year mainly due to higher labour and contractors’ costs, commodity prices,

logistics costs, power costs, consumable stores, services, other charges and royalty payments, the strengthening of the Brazilian real

against the US dollar, partly offset by the weakening of the South African rand, the Australian dollar and the Argentinean peso against the

US dollar, lower fuel cost and favourable inventory movements.

AISC per ounce* for subsidiaries1 was $1,628/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared with $1,396/oz for the year ended 31

December 2022.  This increase in AISC per ounce* for subsidiaries1 year-on-year was mainly due to higher total operating costs, higher

sustaining capital expenditure and lower gold sold. AISC per ounce* for joint ventures was $951/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023,

compared with $979/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. This decrease in AISC per ounce* for joint ventures year-on-year was mainly

due to lower sustaining capital expenditure and higher gold sold, partially offset by higher total operating costs. AISC per ounce*1 for the

group in 2023 was $1,538/oz, compared with $1,344/oz in 2022. AISC per ounce*1 for the group in 2023 were higher year-on-year mainly

due to higher total operating costs, higher sustaining capital expenditure and lower gold sold.

Impairment of Córrego do Sítio (“CdS”) mine

In 2023, an impairment loss of $32m ($47m gross of taxes) was recognised in respect of the CdS mine in Brazil. Following the impairment

loss of $151m ($189m gross of taxes) recognised in 2022, the CdS mine continued to experience operational underperformance in 2023. As

a result, CdS was placed on care and maintenance in August 2023, which resulted in a further impairment loss on the remaining asset

balances and new capital expenditures incurred during 2023. The impairment losses in 2022 and 2023 were recognised and included in the

Americas segment.

Impairment/ impairment reversal of Cuiabá mine

In 2022, the Cuiabá mine in Brazil recognised an impairment loss of $57m ($70m gross of taxes) largely due to the temporary suspension of

filtered tailings deposition on the Calcinados TSF and processing of gold concentrate at the Queiroz metallurgical plant. During the first half

of 2023, Cuiabá recognised a further impairment loss of $45m ($53m gross of taxes) largely due to the temporary suspension of operating

activities at the Queiroz metallurgical plant.

However, the transition to gold concentrate sales during 2023 significantly improved operating results at the Cuiabá mine compared to 2022,

which resulted in the recognition of a reversal of impairment of $28m ($38m gross of taxes) at 31 December 2023. The impairment losses in

2022 and the reversal of impairment in 2023 were recognised and included in the Americas segment.

Impairment of Serra Grande mine

The Serra Grande mine recognised an impairment loss of $90m ($105m gross of taxes) during December 2023 largely due to a projection of

lower grades and ounces. The impairment losses in 2023 were recognised and included in the Americas segment.

Impairment of Gramalote

In September 2023, AngloGold Ashanti completed the sale of its entire 50% indirect interest in the Gramalote project to B2Gold Corp. During

2023, Gramalote recognised an impairment loss of $25m ($25m gross of taxes) as the recoverable amount of Gramalote, based on its fair

value less cost to sell, was lower than its carrying value.

Cash Flow

Net cash inflow from operating activities decreased to $971m for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to $1,804m for the year

ended 31 December 2022. This decrease was mainly due to the payment of $460m from the Kibali joint venture in 2022 related to the

legacy cash build-up at Kibali, which were not repeated in 2023 as well as the once-off costs associated with the corporate restructuring of

$268m.

After accounting for non-sustaining capital expenditure of $200m from subsidiaries, the Company recorded free cash inflow* of $109m for

the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to free cash inflow* of $657m for the year ended 31 December 2022.

1 Adjusted to exclude the Córrego do Sítio (CdS) operation that was placed on care and maintenance in August 2023.

Free cash flow* before non-sustaining capital expenditure, the metric on which the dividend payment is based, was $342m for the year

ended 31 December 2023, compared to $996m for the year ended 31 December 2022.

AngloGold Ashanti received a cash distribution of $143m from the Kibali joint venture during the second half of 2023, compared to a cash

distribution of $145m received during the second half of 2022. Cumulative cash distributions received from Kibali for the year ended

31 December 2023 were $180m, compared to $694m received during the year ended 31 December 2022 when the legacy cash build-up

was released. At 31 December 2023, the Company’s attributable share of the outstanding cash balances from the DRC was $51m,

compared to $40m at 31 December 2022.

Free cash flow* was impacted by continued lock-ups of value added tax (“VAT”) at Geita and Kibali and foreign exchange restrictions and

export duties at Cerro Vanguardia (“CVSA”):

•In Tanzania, net overdue recoverable VAT input credit refunds (after discounting provisions) decreased by $15m during the

second half of 2023 to $153m at 31 December 2023 from $168m at 30 June 2023, as a result of offsetting verified VAT claims

against corporate tax payments of $54m and revaluation adjustments of $4m, partially offset by new claims submitted of $43m.

The Company plans to continue offsetting verified VAT claims against corporate taxes.

•In the DRC, the Company’s attributable share of the net recoverable VAT balance (including recoverable VAT on fuel duties and

after discounting provisions) decreased by $29m during the second half of 2023 to $60m at 31 December 2023 from $89m at

30 June 2023, as a result of a new VAT offset agreement signed with the DRC government in the fourth quarter of 2023.

•In Argentina, the net export duty receivables (after discounting provisions) decreased by $1m† during the second half of 2023 to

$4m† at 31 December 2023 from $5m† at 30 June 2023, mainly due to a weaker exchange rate of the Argentinean peso against

the US dollar leading to a reduction in the receivable of $30m†, partially offset by a decrease in discounting provisions of $20m†

and new claims of $9m†. In addition, CVSA’s cash balance decreased by $9m† during the second half of 2023 to $89m† at 31

December 2023 from $98m† at 30 June 2023. The cash balance is available to be paid to AngloGold Ashanti’s offshore ($47m†)

and onshore ($4m†) investment holding companies in the form of declared dividends.

Applications have been made to the Argentinean Central Bank to approve the purchase of US dollars in order to distribute

offshore dividends related to the 2019, 2020 and 2021 financial years of $23m† to AngloGold Ashanti. During the second half of

2023, CVSA submitted a new application to the Argentinean Central Bank to approve the purchase of US dollars in order to

distribute additional offshore dividends of $24m† for the declared dividends related to the 2022 financial year. Also, under a special

regime established for dividend payments, a new petition to distribute a portion of the offshore dividends applied for, in the amount

of $45m, was submitted to the Argentinean Central Bank during the third quarter of 2023. While the remaining approvals are

pending, the cash remains fully available for CVSA’s operational and exploration requirements.

Net Debt

Adjusted net debt* increased to $1,268m at 31 December 2023 from $878m at 31 December 2022. This year-on-year increase is mainly due

to lower cash generation from operating activities and the once-off costs associated with the corporate restructuring.

Capital Expenditure

Total capital expenditure for subsidiaries was $1,042m for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to $1,028m for the year ended

31 December 2022. Total capital expenditure for joint ventures was $85m for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to $90m for the

Gold hedges

During the first quarter of 2023, AngloGold Ashanti entered into zero-cost collars for a total of approximately 136,000oz of gold for the period

from February 2023 to December 2023 in order to manage gold price downside risk associated with Cuiabá partially transitioning to gold

concentrate sales and the high cost associated with CdS. During the second quarter of 2023, AngloGold Ashanti entered into zero-cost

collars for a total of approximately 47,000oz of gold for the period from January 2024 to June 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2023,

AngloGold Ashanti entered into zero-cost collars for a total of approximately 300,000oz of gold for the period from January 2024 to

December 2024 in order to manage gold price downside risk of the high costs associated with the Brazilian operations. For the year ended

31 December 2023, AngloGold Ashanti recorded a realised gain of $2m in respect of these gold derivatives. At 31 December 2023, the

mark-to-market value of the remaining open positions was an unrealised loss of $15m (at 30 June 2023: an unrealised gain of $3m).

Oil hedges

During July 2022, AngloGold Ashanti entered into forward contracts for a total of 999,000 barrels of Brent crude oil for the period from

January 2023 to December 2023 that would be cash settled on a monthly basis against the contract price. This comprised approximately

40% of the Company’s total anticipated 2023 consumption. The average price achieved on the forward contracts was $89.20 per barrel of

Brent crude oil. For the year ended 31 December 2023, AngloGold Ashanti recorded a realised loss of $7m and a reversal of the prior year

unrealised loss of $6m in respect of these oil derivatives (at 30 June 2023: an unrealised loss of $1m; at 31 December 2022: an unrealised

loss of $6m). There were no open contracts at the end of December 2023.

(1) Excluded the Cuiabá mine.

(2) AngloGold Ashanti expected that the Cuiabá mine would continue to extract gold from the gravity circuit at a rate of 5,000oz on average per month and would

produce gold-in-concentrate at an average of approximately 10,000oz per month.

(3) Adjusted to exclude the Córrego do Sítio (CdS) operation that was placed on care and maintenance in August 2023.

(4)The Company did not provide quantitative reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures for its Non-GAAP financial guidance shown above in

reliance on the exception provided by Rule 100(a)(2) of Regulation G because the reconciliations could not be performed without unreasonable efforts as such

IFRS measures could not be reliably estimated due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting items that the Company could not reasonably

predict at the time but which could have been material.

Economic assumptions for 2023 were as follows: $/A$0.71, BRL5.40/$, AP260.00/$, ZAR17.00/$ and Brent $83/bbl.

Cost and capital forecast ranges for 2023 are expressed in “nominal” terms. “Nominal” cash flows are current price term cash flows that have been inflated into

future value, using an appropriate “inflation” rate. In addition, estimates assume neither operational or labour interruptions (including any further delays in the

ramp-up of the Obuasi redevelopment project), or power disruptions, nor further changes to asset portfolio and/or operating mines and have not been reviewed

by AngloGold Ashanti’s external auditors. Other unknown or unpredictable factors, or factors outside the Company’s control, including inflationary pressures on

its cost base, could also have material adverse effects on AngloGold Ashanti’s future results and no assurance can be given that any expectations expressed by

AngloGold Ashanti will prove to have been correct. Measures taken at AngloGold Ashanti’s operations together with AngloGold Ashanti’s business continuity

plans aim to enable its operations to deliver in line with its production targets. Actual results could differ from guidance and any deviations may be significant.

(1) Excludes the Cuiabá mine. Original guidance for the Cuiabá mine was 180koz.

(2) The original 2024 cost and capital forecast ranges were previously reported using “real” terms and are now updated to reflect “nominal” terms. An appropriate

(3) Adjusted to include the Cuiabá mine (which had previously been disclosed separately) and to exclude the Córrego do Sítio (CdS) operation that was placed

on care and maintenance in August 2023.

(4) The Company is not providing quantitative reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures for its Non-GAAP financial guidance shown above

in reliance on the exception provided by Rule 100(a)(2) of Regulation G because the reconciliations cannot be performed without unreasonable efforts as such

IFRS measures cannot be reliably estimated due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting items, including, among other factors, changes in

economic, social, political and market conditions, including related to inflation or international conflicts, the success of business and operating initiatives,

changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions, including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, the

outcome of pending or future litigation proceedings, any supply chain disruptions, any public health crises, pandemics or epidemics (including the COVID-19

pandemic), and other business and operational risks and challenges and other factors, including mining accidents, that the Company cannot reasonably predict

at this time but which may be material.

Outlook economic assumptions for original 2024 guidance are as follows: $/A$0.74, BRL5.45/$, AP375.00/$, ZAR16.75/$ and Brent $87/bbl.

Outlook economic assumptions for revised 2024 guidance are as follows: $/A$0.68, BRL4.96/$, AP935.00/$, ZAR18.50/$ and Brent $77/bbl.

Cost and capital forecast ranges for 2024 are expressed in “nominal” terms. “Nominal” cash flows are current price term cash flows that have been inflated into

future value, using an appropriate “inflation” rate. Estimates assume neither operational or labour interruptions (including any further delays in the ramp-up of the

Obuasi redevelopment project), or power disruptions, nor further changes to asset portfolio and/or operating mines and have not been reviewed by AngloGold

Ashanti’s external auditors. Other unknown or unpredictable factors, or factors outside the Company’s control, including inflationary pressures on its cost base,

could also have material adverse effects on AngloGold Ashanti’s future results and no assurance can be given that any expectations expressed by AngloGold

Ashanti will prove to have been correct. Measures taken at AngloGold Ashanti’s operations together with AngloGold Ashanti’s business continuity plans aim to

enable its operations to deliver in line with its production targets. Actual results could differ from guidance and any deviations may be significant. Please refer to

the Risk Factors section in AngloGold Ashanti Limited’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2022 filed with the SEC and AngloGold

Ashanti’s registration statement on Form F-4 initially filed with the SEC on 23 June 2023.

The Company previously provided guidance for 2024 which disclosed Cuiabá production separately and included Córrego do Sítio (CdS).

This original guidance has been adjusted for these two factors to present the revised 2024 guidance on a like-for-like basis.

At the midpoint of guidance the Company expects to see production growth of approximately 4% in 2024 relative to 2023.  The primary

drivers of expected production growth is related to a step-up at Obuasi following the completion of Phase 3 of the Obuasi redevelopment

project and at Siguiri where the Company expects year-over-year recovery following the 2023 CIL tank failure.

Total cash costs per ounce* for subsidiaries are expected to range from $1,125/oz to $1,225/oz in 2024. Total cash costs per ounce* are

forecast to remain flat at the midpoint as the continued realisation of benefits from the Company’s Full Asset Potential review programme are

expected to be offset by inflation and an anticipated stronger Australian dollar against the US dollar.

Sustaining capital expenditure for 2024 is expected to grow slightly from 2023 because of increased Mineral Reserve Development (MRD)

investment.

Following the completion of these projects, the Company’s subsidiaries are expected to operate at an AISC per ounce* ranging from $1,575/

oz to $1,675/oz in 2024.

Non-sustaining capital expenditures is expected to increase from 2023 due to additional investment in North Bullfrog and supporting

infrastructure for the Beatty District.

The Company continues to enforce capital and cost discipline across the business, while prioritising the safety, health and wellbeing of its

employees and its host communities.

registration statement on Form F-4 initially filed with the SEC on 23 June 2023.

2025 guidance reflects an anticipated 2% year-over-year growth in production driven primarily by the expected continued ramp-up at Obuasi

and modest gains across multiple mines.  Total cash costs per ounce* are expected to decrease as continued Full Asset Potential maturity

and production efficiencies are anticipated to drive unit costs lower.  The expected increase in non-sustaining capital expenditure reflects the

anticipated incremental investment in the construction of North Bullfrog.

NON-RELIANCE ON PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On 21 February 2024, the Audit and Risk Committee of the board of directors (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company, as successor issuer

to AngloGold Ashanti Limited (currently known as AngloGold Ashanti (Pty) Ltd) (“AGA Limited”), based on the recommendation of, and after

consultation with, management, concluded that (i) AGA Limited’s previously issued audited consolidated financial statements as of and for

the financial year ended 31 December 2022, included in the annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2022 filed by AGA

Limited with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on 17 March 2023 (the “2022 Form 20-F”) (the “Original Full-

Year 2022 Financial Statements”) and (ii) AGA Limited’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as

of and for the six-month period ended 30 June 2023, included in a report on Form 6-K filed by AGA Limited with the SEC on 4 August 2023

(the “Half-Year 2023 Form 6-K”) (the “Original Half-Year 2023 Financial Statements” and together with the Original Full-Year 2022 Financial

Statements, the “Affected Financials”), should no longer be relied upon at this time.

The Company believes that due to errors resulting from the use of incorrect underlying data in the deferred tax model for the Obuasi mine,

combined with the misapplication of the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International

Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), specifically, of IAS 12 – Income Taxes, and an incorrect interpretation of Ghanaian tax law, the

deferred tax asset with respect to the Obuasi mine recorded in the Affected Financials (valued at $71 million in the Original Full-Year 2022

Financial Statements and $104 million in the Original Half-Year 2023 Financial Statements) was overstated.  As a result, the Company

expects that it will need to restate the Affected Financials to reduce profit for the year ended 31 December 2022 by up to approximately $97

million and to reduce profit for the half year ended 30 June 2023 by up to approximately $49 million. In this case, the Company also

anticipates correcting other immaterial errors previously identified in the Affected Financials, which will further reduce profit for the year

ended 31 December 2022 by approximately $16 million and further reduce profit for the half year ended 30 June 2023 by approximately $1

million.

The Audit Committee has discussed the matters described herein with management and with PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc., the Company’s

independent registered public accounting firm for the financial year ended 31 December 2023. The Audit Committee and management are

engaged in continuing discussions of these matters with Ernst & Young Inc., AGA Limited’s independent registered public accounting firm

with regard to the Original 2022 Financial Statements.

Similarly, any press releases, earnings releases, and investor communications describing the Company’s financial performance for the

above-referenced periods should no longer be relied upon at this time.

The amounts discussed above are preliminary, unaudited and unreviewed and may be subject to change as the Company and the

independent registered public accounting firms, PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. and Ernst & Young Inc., complete their procedures.

Controls and Procedures

As a result of the errors described above and the anticipated restatements, management has identified one or more material weaknesses in

the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management has accordingly concluded that the Company’s internal control over

financial reporting was not effective as of 31 December 2022 and its disclosure controls and procedures were similarly not effective as of 31

December 2022.  In addition, given that the conclusion that the Affected Financials should not be relied upon was reached subsequent to 31

December 2023 and related remediation actions were not implemented as of 31 December 2023, the Company will report in its annual

report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2023 (the “2023 Form 20-F”) that its internal control over financial reporting and its

disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of 31 December 2023.  Neither management nor PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. has

completed its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of 31 December 2023.

Other Information

The Company believes that in light of its intention to file the 2023 Form 20-F in the next month, it is preferable to present any restated

Original Full-Year 2022 Financial Statements together with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31

December 2023 in that 2023 Form 20-F.  The Company believes this will allow readers to review more easily all pertinent data in a single

document and therefore does not plan to amend the 2022 Form 20-F. In addition, the Company plans to present the restated Original Half-

Year 2023 Financial Statements either in an amendment to the Half-Year 2023 Form 6-K or in the 2023 Form 20-F.

CUIABÁ AND BRAZIL TSF UPDATE

The Calcinados TSF remains in a state of care and maintenance following a risk assessment conducted in December 2022 with oversight

from external consultants, as required by Brazilian regulations, which concluded that additional buttressing should be completed to align the

TSF’s post liquefaction factor of safety with international standards currently considered best practice. In 2023, the Company’s external

consultants conducted extensive engineering and geotechnical investigations to evaluate other potential options for alignment of the

Calcinados TSF with international standards, including additional excavation in the reservoir. The Calcinados TSF remains stable, per the

conclusions of assessments by external consultants and the Company’s internal TSF team.

SAFETY UPDATE

AngloGold Ashanti achieved zero workplace fatalities at the mines operated by the Company for the second year in a row. AngloGold

Ashanti continued to improve on all major safety indices year-on-year.

The Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (“TRIFR”) increased 21% to 1.19 injuries per million hours worked for the second half of 2023,

compared to 0.98 injuries per million hours worked in the first half of 2023. From August 2023 onwards, the TRIFR steadily improved,

resulting in a year-on-year TRIFR improvement of 13% from 1.26 injuries per million hours worked at 31 December 2022, compared to 1.09

injuries per million hours worked at 31 December 2023.  In addition to achieving internal improvement targets, this TRIFR also compares

favourably with the International Council on Mining and Metals members' average TRIFR of 2.66 injuries per million hours worked in 2022.

TRIFR measures workplace safety in terms of the total number of recordable injuries and fatalities that occur per million hours worked.

FY 2023 Preliminary Financial Update - www.AngloGoldAshanti.com

AngloGold Ashanti’s safety strategy, with specific emphasis on the refreshed Major Hazard Management standard and critical control

verifications, continued to be implemented at all the operations, intensifying employees’ focus on safety practices in all workplaces.

AngloGold Ashanti continues to address high consequence incidents through the application of its Major Hazard Management process.

OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS

In the Africa region – subsidiaries, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 1.2Moz at a total cash cost* of $1,121/oz for the year

ended 31 December 2023, compared to 1.3Moz at a total cash cost* of $1,023/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. AISC* from the

subsidiaries in Africa was $1,563/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to $1,291/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022.

In the Africa region – joint ventures, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 343,000oz at a total cash cost* of $802/oz for the year

ended 31 December 2023, compared with 337,000oz at a total cash cost* of $725/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. AISC* from the

joint ventures in Africa was $951/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared with $979/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022.

In Ghana, at Iduapriem, gold production was 268,000oz at a total cash cost* of $943/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to

248,000oz at a total cash cost* of $970/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was higher year-on-year mainly due to

higher grades mined as the mine accessed higher grade ore tonnes from Teberebie Cut 2 compared to 2022, partially offset by lower ore

tonnes processed as the site commissioned the new TSF. Total cash costs per ounce* were lower year-on-year primarily due to higher gold

production and favourable ore stockpile movements, partially offset by higher royalties paid (due to the higher average gold price received

per ounce*).

At Obuasi, gold production was 224,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,114/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to 250,000oz

at a total cash cost* of $914/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was lower year-on-year mainly due to lower grades

mined and poor ground conditions in some of the higher-grade stopes partially offset by higher ore tonnes processed. Total cash costs per

ounce* were higher year-on-year primarily due to lower gold production, partially offset by favourable ore stockpile movements.

During the third quarter of 2023, some underground mining equipment was lost as a result of a fall-of-ground incident in one of the mine’s

high-grade stopes. Although no injuries resulted from the incident, the decision was taken to proceed more slowly to ensure the safety of

underground operators. During the fourth quarter of 2023, significantly larger drilling equipment (the V30 reamer) was introduced to establish

new stopes, which in turn allowed for the safe increase in production. Following the introduction of the V30 reamer, gold production

increased 33% quarter-on-quarter from 46,000oz in the third quarter of 2023 to 61,000oz in the fourth quarter of 2023. Obuasi is currently

undertaking a trial of the underhand cut and fill mining method in high-grade areas. This is a more selective mining method suited to

challenging ground conditions often associated with higher grades. The transition to this new method in higher-grade areas is expected to

take place throughout 2024 following completion of this initial trial period. As a result of this transition, Obuasi is forecast to produce between

275,000oz to 300,000oz in 2024 and 325,000oz to 375,000oz in 2025, as it continues its ramp-up to steady state production.

In Tanzania, at Geita, gold production was 485,000oz at a total cash cost* of $984/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to

521,000oz at a total cash cost* of $944/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was lower year-on-year mainly due to

lower ore tonnes processed on the back of a planned mill shutdown in the first half of 2023 and lower grades mined. Total cash costs per

ounce* were higher year-on-year mainly due to lower gold production and higher mining costs resulting from an increase in open-pit mining

at Nyamulilima and underground mining at Nyankanga, as well as an increase in backfilling at Star and Comet and Nyankanga underground

mines. This increase in total cash costs per ounce* was partially offset by favourable ore stockpile movements.

In Guinea, at Siguiri, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 221,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,650/oz for the year ended

31 December 2023, compared to 279,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,319/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was

lower year-on-year mainly due to lower ore tonnes processed due to the CIL tank failure during the second quarter of 2023, which impacted

metallurgical recoveries and lower grades mined. Gold production was further adversely impacted by community protests in relation to

additional employment opportunities. These protests have since subsided. Total cash costs per ounce* were higher year-on-year mainly due

to lower gold production and unfavourable ore stockpile movements, partially offset by lower royalties paid.

In the DRC, at the Kibali joint venture, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 343,000oz at a total cash cost* of $802/oz for the year

ended 31 December 2023, compared to 337,000oz at a total cash cost* of $725/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production

was marginally higher year-on-year mainly due to higher ore tonnes processed, partially offset by lower grades mined. Total cash costs per

ounce* were higher year-on-year mainly due to higher oil and commodity prices related to diesel and reagent consumption costs, and higher

royalties paid, partially offset by favourable ore stockpile movements.

In the Latin America region, gold production1 (on an attributable basis) was 490,000oz at a total cash cost*1 of $1,124/oz for the year

ended 31 December 2023, compared to 499,000oz at a total cash cost*1 of $957/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. The region’s

AISC*1 was $1,713/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to $1,555/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022.

In Brazil, at AGA Mineração, gold production1 was 252,000oz at a total cash cost*1 of $1,041/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023,

compared to gold production1 of 241,000oz at a total cash cost*1 of $841/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. As the CdS operation

was placed on care and maintenance in August 2023, its production contribution and total cash cost* impact have been excluded from gold

production and total cash costs per ounce* for the years ended 31 December 2023 and 2022. Gold production1 was marginally higher year-

on-year mainly due to higher recovered grades at the Cuiabá mine, partially offset by lower ore tonnes processed. For 2023, Cuiabá

produced 252,000oz, which comprised 83,000oz of gravimetric gold and 169,000oz of gold-in-concentrate. Total cash costs per ounce*1

were higher year-on-year mainly due to lower by-product revenue as sulphuric acid sales remained suspended pending resumption of

operation from the Queiroz plant, higher operating costs relating to labour, mining contractors and consumables, the strengthening of the

Brazilian real against the US dollar, additional costs to produce and sell gold-in-concentrate and additional operating costs related to TSF

management. This increase in total cash costs per ounce*1 was partially offset by lower royalties paid.

1 Adjusted to exclude the Córrego do Sítio (CdS) operation that was placed on care and maintenance in August 2023.

At Serra Grande, gold production was 86,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,498/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to

88,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,355/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was marginally lower year-on-year

mainly due to lower ore tonnes processed, partially offset by higher recovered grades. Total cash costs per ounce* were higher year-on-year

mainly due to marginally lower gold production, unfavourable ore stockpile movements as well as increases in operating costs relating to

labour, mining contractors, additional technical services and the strengthening of the Brazilian real against the US dollar.

In Argentina, at Cerro Vanguardia, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 152,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,045/oz for the year

ended 31 December 2023, compared to 170,000oz at a total cash cost* of $913/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production

was lower year-on-year mainly due to a combination of lower ore tonnes processed and lower grades mined. Total cash costs per ounce*

were higher year-on-year mainly due to cost increases related to labour, fuel, power, explosives and services (annual inflation rate in

Argentina ended 2023 at 211.4%), higher consumption of materials and services as well as unfavourable ore stockpile movements. This

increase in total cash costs per ounce* was partially offset by higher by-product income, the weakening of the Argentinean peso against the

US dollar and capitalised stripping costs.

In the Australia region, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 562,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,251/oz for the year ended

31 December 2023, compared to 538,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,157/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. The region’s AISC*

was $1,487/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to $1,345/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022.

At Sunrise Dam, gold production was 252,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,318/oz for the year ended 31 December 2023, compared to

232,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,402/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was higher year-on-year mainly due to

higher mined grades, partially offset by lower ore tonnes processed. Total cash costs per ounce* were lower year-on-year primarily due to

higher gold production and favourable gold in process movements as well as the weakening of the Australian dollar against the US dollar,

partially offset by higher royalties paid as well as higher labour and consumable costs.

At Tropicana, gold production (on an attributable basis) was 310,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,105/oz for the year ended

31 December 2023, compared to 306,000oz at a total cash cost* of $881/oz for the year ended 31 December 2022. Gold production was

marginally higher year-on-year mainly due to higher grades mined, partially offset by lower ore tonnes processed. Total cash costs per

ounce* were higher year-on-year mainly due to higher waste stripping costs and higher mining costs related to drilling and blasting, partially

offset by favourable ore stockpile movements and the weakening of the Australian dollar against the US dollar.

UPDATE ON CAPITAL PROJECTS

Obuasi

Phase 3 of the Obuasi redevelopment project relates primarily to capital expenditure required to refurbish and return to service existing

infrastructure around the KMS shaft. This infrastructure project, which provides direct access to high-grade Block 11 and other underground

mining areas and augments current underground materials handling capacity, is expected to be completed by the end of 2024 after being

extended during 2023 when mud, encountered on 5,000 and 5,100 levels, had to be cleared.

Phase 3 achieved the following milestones:

•Completed 41-level station and water handling system

•Reamed 71% of the 945m vent raise

•Upgraded and licensed both the KMS Rock and Man Winders for operations via Ghanaian mining authorities

•Completed installation of two new shaft pipe columns increasing dewatering capacity by 200 litres per second

•Completed mud clearing on 50-level

•Ground support on 50-level reached 50% completion

•KMS shaft now complete and operational down to 51-level

•Completed mining of a new ore pass between the operational mine and 4,100 level rail

The next key project milestones include:

•Completing of two new ore passes between upper mine and the rail transport level

•Installation and commissioning of three new pump stations

•Installation and commissioning of the new vent shaft

•Commissioning the rail system

•Clearing mud on 5,100 level and shaft bottom

The Underhand Drift and Fill (“UHDF”) mining method trial in Block 8 Lower progressed well during the fourth quarter of 2023. The UHDF

trial aims to test the mining method to ensure it can be used safely and effectively to mine high-grade ore in areas with poor ground

conditions associated with weak graphitic shears and increasing mining depth.

Milestones achieved:

•Initial trial of developing through paste backfill in an old paste filled stope completed successfully to demonstrate paste

competency

•Top UHDF drive 3,300 level developed

•Ground support in 3,300 level successfully installed

•Paste hole drilled and reticulation line established successfully

•Paste bulkheads on 3,300 level completed to close off UHDF volume

•Paste backfilling of 3,300 level completed

•Paste curing expected towards the end of February 2024

Next steps:

•Develop parallel drive alongside the paste filled 3,300 level drive to expose and test the paste strength prior to developing under

the paste

•Ground support installation and paste backfill of parallel development drive

•Once paste is cured develop first drift under the paste

Tropicana

The Havana underground pre-feasibility study was successfully completed in 2023. The feasibility study commenced in the third quarter of

2023 and is expected to continue into the first half of 2024. A final investment decision is expected to be made in 2024 with the potential to

start the development of the link drive and portal access in the second half of 2024.

Tropicana ESG renewables

The Tropicana renewable energy project is in progress with all regulatory approvals received in the second half of 2023 and the Independent

Power Producers (“IPP”) mobilising to site in August 2023. The project is on track with the delivery and installation of the wind turbines and

solar plant expected to commence in the first half of 2024. The renewable energy project is expected to be commissioned in the first quarter

of 2025 and, upon completion, is expected to reduce greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions at Tropicana by 65,000 tonnes per annum on

average over the 10-year life of the power purchase agreement.

Nevada

North Bullfrog

AngloGold Ashanti’s board of directors approved the feasibility study for the North Bullfrog project to proceed into detailed engineering. The

feasibility study supports a first-time gold Mineral Reserve declaration of 1.0Moz. Pending the issuance of necessary regulatory approvals

and permits, North Bullfrog is expected to produce an average 117,000oz during the first five full years and an average of 62,000oz a year

over its life, currently anticipated to be 13 years. AISC per ounce*1 are anticipated at $882/oz over the first five full years and $854/oz

over .the life of the mine. Initial project capital expenditure is expected to be $369m. The internal rate of return (“IRR”)2 of the project,

assuming a gold price at $1,600/oz, is expected to be 13%. At a market spot gold price of $1,900/oz, the IRR2 is estimated to be 25%.

The project is expected to be the first of the Company’s projects for the Nevada district and, apart from the additional production it is

expected to provide, is anticipated to allow AngloGold Ashanti to build a cohesive project development team and improve understanding of

the permitting and project construction process in Nevada.

Merlin

A planned gold Mineral Resource conversion drilling programme was completed during the second half of 2023 with encouraging results.

These results were the basis of an initial assessment for the Expanded Silicon project that was completed during the fourth quarter of 2023.

The favorable outcome of the initial assessment supported a 9.1Moz gold Inferred Mineral Resource3 declaration at the Merlin deposit,

confirming another large discovery at the contiguous deposits of Silicon and Merlin. Together, these deposits representing the Expanded

Silicon project have a gold Mineral Resource of 13.3Moz4.

Quebradona

Following the decision of Colombia’s national environmental agency (“ANLA”) in November 2021 to archive the Company’s environmental

licence application related to the Quebradona Project, and the confirmation of such decision in April 2022, AngloGold Ashanti has been

working to complete the data acquisition required by ANLA. In addition, an optimised feasibility study is currently underway to implement

improvements in water management, operational flexibility, maintainability, and constructability. The new environmental licence application is

now expected to be filed with the ANLA in 2027.

Gramalote

On 18 September 2023, AngloGold Ashanti, agreed to sell its entire 50% indirect interest in the Gramalote project to B2Gold Corp for a total

consideration of up to $60m. The transaction closed on 29 September 2023, and AngloGold Ashanti received a cash payment of $20m on 5

October 2023, with the balance dependent on project construction and production milestones that the Gramalote project reaches.

CORPORATE UPDATE

AngloGold Ashanti makes a strategic investment in G2 Goldfields Inc.

On 19 January 2024, AngloGold Ashanti completed its acquisition of an 11.7% interest in G2 Goldfields Inc., a Canadian gold mining

company with exploration properties in Guyana, South America, for a consideration of approximately CAD $22.1m.

Reporting Update

AngloGold Ashanti qualifies as a foreign private issuer (“FPI”) in the United States for purposes of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934,

as amended (the “US Exchange Act”) and is filing annual reports on Form 20-F and current reports on Form 6-K with the SEC. AngloGold

Ashanti plans to voluntarily file annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K with the SEC

instead of filing on the reporting forms available to FPIs starting with the 10-Q filing for the second quarter of 2024. Prior to voluntarily filing

on forms that are available to US domestic issuers, AngloGold Ashanti will file its annual report for 2023 on Form 20-F and will only provide

production information for each mine and major project updates in its report for the first quarter of 2024.

1 The Company is not providing quantitative reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measures for its Non-GAAP forward-looking information

shown above in reliance on the exception provided by Rule 100(a)(2) of Regulation G because the reconciliations cannot be performed without unreasonable

efforts as such IFRS measures cannot be reliably estimated due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting items, including, among other factors,

changes in economic, social, political and market conditions, including related to inflation or international conflicts, the success of business and operating

initiatives, changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions, including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange

rates, the outcome of pending or future litigation proceedings, any supply chain disruptions, any public health crises, pandemics or epidemics (including the

COVID-19 pandemic), and other business and operational risks and challenges and other factors, including mining accidents, that the Company cannot

reasonably predict at this time but which may be material.

2 Actual IRR may differ materially from any IRR indicated above, and may therefore be lower, as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic, social,

political and market conditions, including related to inflation or international conflicts, the success of business and operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory

environment and other government actions, including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, the outcome of pending or future

litigation proceedings, any supply chain disruptions, any public health crises, pandemics or epidemics, and other business and operational risks and challenges

and other factors, including mining accidents.

3 The Mineral Resource exclusive of Mineral Reserve is defined as the inclusive Mineral Resource less the Mineral Reserve before dilution and other factors

are applied. Refer to “2023 Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Information” below.

4 Includes gold Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 3.40Moz and gold Inferred Mineral Resource of 9.86Moz at 31 December 2023 at Silicon and

EXPLORATION UPDATE

For detailed disclosure on the exploration work done during the six months ended 31 December 2023, see the Exploration Update document

on the Company’s website at www.anglogoldashanti.com on both brownfield and greenfield exploration programmes.

2023 MINERAL RESOURCE AND MINERAL RESERVE INFORMATION

The Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve stated herein were prepared in compliance with Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K (17 CFR §

229.1300) (“Regulation S-K 1300”). Refer to Item 1300 (Definitions) of Regulation S-K for the meaning of the terms used in AngloGold

Ashanti’s Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve reporting. The Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve represent the amount of gold,

copper, silver, sulphur and molybdenum estimated at 31 December 2023 and are based on information available at the time of estimation.

Such estimates are, or will be, to a large extent, based on the prices of the respective commodities and interpretations of geologic data

obtained from drill holes and other exploration techniques, which data may not necessarily be indicative of future results. AngloGold Ashanti

publishes its Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve on an annual basis and has re-estimated its Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve at

31 December 2023, taking into account economic assumptions, changes to future production, capital expenditure and operating costs (if

any), depletion, additions as well as any acquisitions or disposals during 2023. The legal tenure of each material property has been verified

to the satisfaction of the accountable Qualified Person and all of the Mineral Reserve has been confirmed to be covered by the required

mining permits or there exists a realistic expectation, based on applicable laws and regulations, that issuance of permits or resolution of

legal issues necessary for mining and processing at a particular deposit will be accomplished in the ordinary course and in a timeframe

consistent with AngloGold Ashanti’s (or its joint venture partners’) current mine plans. For the Mineral Reserve, the term “economically

viable” means that profitable extraction or production has been established or analytically demonstrated in, at a minimum, a pre-feasibility

study, to be economically viable under reasonable investment and market assumptions. Mineral Reserve is subdivided and reported, in

order of increasing geoscientific knowledge and confidence, into Probable and Proven Mineral Reserve categories. Mineral Reserve is

aggregated from the Probable and Proven Mineral Reserve categories. Ounces of gold or silver or pounds of copper, sulphur or

molybdenum included in the Probable and  Proven Mineral Reserve are estimated and reported as delivered to plant  (i.e., the point where

material is delivered to the processing facility) and exclude losses during metallurgical treatment. In compliance with Regulation S-K 1300,

the Mineral Resource herein is reported as exclusive of the Mineral Reserve before dilution and other factors are applied, unless otherwise

stated. Mineral Resource is subdivided and reported, in order of increasing geoscientific knowledge and confidence, into Inferred, Indicated

and Measured Mineral Resource categories. Ounces of gold or silver or pounds of copper, sulphur or molybdenum included in the Inferred,

Indicated and Measured Mineral Resource are those contained in situ prior to losses during metallurgical treatment. While it would be

reasonable to expect that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resource would upgrade to Indicated Mineral Resource with continued

exploration, due to the uncertainty of Inferred Mineral Resource, it should not be assumed that such upgrading will always occur.

If estimations are required to be revised using significantly lower commodity prices, increases in operating costs, reductions in metallurgical

recovery or other modifying factors, this could result in the Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve not being mined or processed profitably,

material write-downs of AngloGold Ashanti’s investment in mining properties, goodwill and increased amortisation, reclamation and closure

charges. If AngloGold Ashanti determines that certain of its Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve have become uneconomic, this may

ultimately lead to a reduction in its aggregate reported Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve, respectively. Consequently, if AngloGold

Ashanti’s actual Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve is less than current estimates, its business, prospects, results of operations and

financial position may be materially impaired.

The pre-feasibility and feasibility studies for undeveloped ore bodies derive estimates of capital expenditure and operating costs based upon

anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed, the predicted configuration of the ore body, expected recovery rates of

metals from the ore, the costs of comparable facilities, the costs of operating and processing equipment and other factors. Actual operating

and capital expenditure cost and economic returns on projects may differ significantly from original estimates. Further, it may take many

years from the initial phases of exploration until commencement of production, during which time, the economic feasibility of production may

change. The Mineral Resource is subject to further exploration and development, and is subject to additional risks, and no assurance can be

given that they will eventually convert to future Mineral Reserve.

For additional information, refer to Table 1 (Summary Mineral Resource) and Table 2 (Summary Mineral Reserve) to Paragraph (b) of Item

1303 (Summary disclosure) of Regulation S-K below. These summary tables will also be presented in AngloGold Ashanti’s annual report on

Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2023 to be filed with the SEC. These summary tables include each class of Mineral Resource

(Inferred, Indicated and Measured) together with total Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource, and each class of Mineral Reserve

(Probable and Proven) together with total Mineral Reserve. The Mineral Resource at the end of the fiscal year ended 31 December 2023

was estimated using a gold price of $1,750/oz and a copper price of $3.50/lb, unless otherwise stated. The Mineral Reserve at the end of

the fiscal year ended 31 December 2023 was estimated using a gold price of $1,400/oz, and a copper price of $2.90/lb, unless otherwise

stated.

Non-GAAP disclosure

From time to time AngloGold Ashanti may publicly disclose certain “Non-GAAP” financial measures in the course of its financial

presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls and otherwise.

In this document, AngloGold Ashanti presents the financial items “total cash costs net of by-product revenue”, “total cash costs per ounce”,

“all-in sustaining costs”, “all-in sustaining costs per ounce”, “all-in costs”, “all-in costs per ounce” and “average gold price received per

ounce”, which have been determined using industry guidelines and practices and are not measures under IFRS. In addition, AngloGold

Ashanti also presents the financial items “Adjusted net debt” and “free cash flow” which are not measures under IFRS either. An investor

should not consider these items in isolation or as alternatives to cost of sales, cash flows from operating activities, total borrowings or any

other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of the AngloGold Ashanti group’s

performance. The AngloGold Ashanti 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 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.

All-in sustaining costs and all-in costs

During 2018, the World Gold Council (“WGC”), an industry body, published a revised Guidance Note on “all-in sustaining costs” and “all-in

costs” metrics, which gold mining companies can use to supplement their overall Non-GAAP disclosure. The WGC worked closely with its

members (including AngloGold Ashanti) to develop these Non-GAAP measures which are intended to provide further transparency into the

full cost associated with producing gold. It is expected that these metrics, in particular, the “all-in sustaining cost” and “all-in cost” metrics

which AngloGold Ashanti provides herein, will be helpful to investors, governments, local communities and other stakeholders in

understanding the economics of gold mining.

“All-in sustaining costs” is a Non-GAAP measure which is an extension of the existing “total cash costs net of by-product revenue” metric

and incorporates all costs related to sustaining production and in particular, recognises sustaining capital expenditures associated with

developing and maintaining gold mines. In addition, this metric includes the cost associated with Corporate Office structures that support

these operations, the community and environmental rehabilitation costs attendant with responsible mining and any exploration and

evaluation cost associated with sustaining current operations. “All-in sustaining costs per ounce” is arrived at by dividing the US dollar value

of this cost metric by the ounces of gold sold.

“All-in costs” is a Non-GAAP measure comprising “all-in sustaining costs” including additional costs which reflect the varying costs of

producing gold over the life-cycle of a mine including costs incurred at new operations and costs related to growth projects at existing

operations, which are expected to increase production. “All-in costs per ounce” is arrived at by dividing the US dollar value of this cost metric

by the ounces of gold sold.

Total cash costs net of by-product revenue

“Total cash costs net of by-product revenue” is calculated in accordance with the guidelines of the Gold Institute industry standard and

industry practice and is a Non-GAAP measure. The Gold Institute, which has been incorporated into the National Mining Association, is a

non-profit international association of miners, refiners, bullion suppliers and manufacturers of gold products, which developed a uniform

format for reporting total cash costs on a per ounce basis. The guidance was first adopted in 1996 and revised in November 1999.

“Total cash costs net of by-product revenue” is a Non-GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, include costs

for all mining, processing, onsite administration costs, royalties and production taxes, as well as contributions from by-products, but exclude

amortisation of tangible, intangible and right of use assets, rehabilitation costs and other non-cash costs, retrenchment costs, corporate

administration, marketing and related costs, capital costs and exploration costs. “Total cash costs per ounce” is calculated by dividing

attributable total cash costs net of by-product revenue by attributable ounces of gold produced.

Average gold price received per ounce

“Average gold price received per ounce” is a Non-GAAP measure which gives an indication of revenue earned per ounce of gold sold and

includes gold income and realised non-hedge derivatives in its calculation and serves as a benchmark of performance against the market

spot gold price. This metric is calculated by dividing attributable gold income (“price received”) by attributable ounces of gold sold.

While the Gold Institute provided definitions for the calculation of “total cash costs net of by-product revenue” and the WGC published a

revised Guidance Note on “all-in sustaining costs” and “all-in costs” metrics during 2018, the calculation of “total cash costs net of by-product

revenue”, “total cash costs per ounce”, “all-in sustaining costs”, “all-in sustaining costs per ounce”, “all-in costs” and “all-in costs per ounce”

may vary significantly among gold mining companies, and by themselves do not necessarily provide a basis for comparison with other gold

mining companies. However, AngloGold Ashanti believes that “total cash costs net of by-product revenue”, “all-in sustaining costs” and “all-in

costs” in total by mine and per ounce by mine as well as “average gold price received per ounce” are useful indicators to investors and

management as they provide:

•an indication of profitability, efficiency and cash flows;

•the trend in costs as the mining operations mature over time on a consistent basis; and

•an internal benchmark of performance to allow for comparison against other mines, both within the AngloGold Ashanti group and

at other gold mining companies.

Management prepares its internal management reporting documentation, for use and decision making by the Chief Operating Decision

Maker (CODM), on an attributable basis. The key metrics are based on the attributable ounces, gold income, “total cash costs net of by-

product revenue”, “all-in costs” and “all-in sustaining costs” from each operation and as a consequence includes AngloGold Ashanti’s share

of the “total cash costs net of by-product revenue”, “all-in costs” and “all-in sustaining costs” of its joint ventures that are accounted for under

the equity method. In a capital intensive industry, this basis allows management to make operating and resource allocation decisions on a

FY 2023 Preliminary Financial Update - www.AngloGoldAshanti.com

26

comparable basis between mining operations irrespective of whether they are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method. This

basis of calculating the metrics, where costs should be reported on the same basis as sales (i.e., if sales are reported on an attributable

basis, then costs should be reported on an attributable basis), is also consistent with the WGC’s Guidance Note on “all-in sustaining costs”

and “all-in costs” metrics.

Although AngloGold Ashanti has shareholder rights and board representation commensurate with its ownership interests in its equity-

accounted joint ventures and review the underlying operating results including “total cash costs net of by-product revenue”, “all-in costs” and

“all-in sustaining costs” with them at each reporting period, it does not have direct control over their operations or resulting revenue and

expenses, nor does it have a proportionate legal interest in each financial statement line item. AngloGold Ashanti’s use of “total cash costs

net of by-product revenue”, “all-in costs” and “all-in sustaining costs” on an attributable basis, is not intended to imply that it has any such

control or proportionate legal interest, but rather to reflect the Non-GAAP measures on a basis consistent with its internal and external

segmental reporting.

Adjusted net debt

“Adjusted net debt” is a Non-GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, includes total borrowings adjusted for

the unamortised portion of borrowing costs and IFRS 16 lease adjustments; less cash restricted for use and cash and cash equivalents (net

of bank overdraft). The Adjusted net debt calculation is based on the formula included in AngloGold Ashanti’s Revolving Credit Facility

Agreements for compliance with the debt covenant formula.

Free cash flow

“Free cash flow” is a Non-GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, includes cash inflow from operating

activities, less cash outflow from investing activities and after finance costs, adjusted to exclude once-off acquisitions, disposals and

corporate restructuring costs, and movements in restricted cash.

Forward-looking statements

Certain statements contained in this document, other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation, those concerning the economic outlook for the gold mining industry,

expectations regarding gold prices, production, total cash costs, all-in sustaining costs, all-in costs, cost savings and other operating results, return on equity, productivity improvements, growth

prospects and outlook of AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, individually or in the aggregate, including the achievement of project milestones, commencement and completion of commercial

operations of certain of AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration and production projects and the completion of acquisitions, dispositions or joint venture transactions, AngloGold Ashanti’s liquidity and

capital resources and capital expenditures, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and the outcome and consequences of any potential or pending litigation or regulatory proceedings or

environmental, health and safety issues, are forward-looking statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti’s financial reports, operations, economic performance and financial condition. These

forward-looking statements or forecasts are not based on historical facts, but rather reflect our current beliefs and expectations concerning future events and generally may be identified by the

use of forward-looking words, phrases and expressions such as “believe”, “expect”, “aim”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “foresee”, “forecast”, “predict”, “project”, “estimate”, “likely”, “may”, “might”,

“could”, “should”, “would”, “seek”, “plan”, “scheduled”, “possible”, “continue”, “potential”, “outlook”, “target” or other similar words, phrases, and expressions; provided that the absence thereof

does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.  Similarly, statements that describe our objectives, plans or goals are or may be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking

statements or forecasts involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual results, performance, actions or achievements to differ

materially from the anticipated results, performance, actions or achievements expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. Although AngloGold Ashanti believes that the

expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements and forecasts are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results,

performance, actions or achievements could differ materially from those set out in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic, social, political and

market conditions, including related to inflation or international conflicts, the success of business and operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions,

including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, the outcome of pending or future litigation proceedings, any supply chain disruptions, any public health crises,

pandemics or epidemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic), and other business and operational risks and challenges and other factors, including mining accidents. For a discussion of such

risk factors, refer to AngloGold Ashanti Limited’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2022 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and

AngloGold Ashanti’s registration statement on Form F-4 initially filed with the SEC on 23 June 2023. These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause AngloGold

Ashanti’s actual results, performance, actions or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could also

have material adverse effects on AngloGold Ashanti’s future results, performance, actions or achievements. Consequently, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking

statements.  AngloGold Ashanti undertakes no obligation to update publicly or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof

or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by applicable law. 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.

Non-GAAP financial measures

This communication may contain 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.
