Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves

Ore Reserves and Mineral Resources are reported in accordance with the minimum standard described by the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (The JORC Code, 2004 Edition), and also conform to the standards set out in the South African Code for the Reporting of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the SAMREC 2000 Code). Mineral Resources are inclusive of the Ore Reserve component unless otherwise stated.

Mineral Resources

The 2006 Mineral Resource increased by 14.1 million ounces to 181.6 million ounces before depletion. After a depletion of 8.3 million ounces, the increase is 5.8 million ounces. Mineral Resources were estimated at a gold price of $650/ounce in contrast to the $475 used in 2005. The increased gold price resulted in an increase of 5.8 million ounces while successful exploration and revised modeling resulted in a further increase of 7.6 million ounces.

Ore Reserves

Total AngloGold Ashanti Ore Reserves increased from 63.3 million ounces in 2005 to 66.9 million ounces in December 2006. A year-on-year increase of 10.1 million ounces (16%) occurred before depletion and an increase of 3.6 million ounces (6%) occurred after depletion.

A gold price of $550 was used for Ore Reserve estimates in contrast to the $400 used in 2005. The change in economic assumptions made from 2005 to 2006 resulted in the Ore Reserve increasing by 3.7 million ounces while exploration and modelling resulted in an additional increase of 6.6 million ounces.

By-products

A number of by-products are recovered as a result of the processing of gold ore reserves.

These include 11.8 thousand tonnes of uranium from the South African operations, 0.19 million tonnes of copper from Australia, 0.50 million tonnes of sulphur from Brazil and 24.5 million ounces of silver from Argentina. Details of the by-product Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves are given in the supplementary statistics document which is available on the corporate website, www.AngloGoldAshanti.com.

Audit of 2005 Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve statement

During the course of the year, the AngloGold Ashanti 2005 Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve Statement was submitted to independent consultants for review. The mineral resources and ore reserves from six of AngloGold Ashanti's global operations were selected and reviewed. The company has been informed that the audit identified no material shortcomings in the process by which AngloGold Ashanti's reserves and resources were evaluated. It is the company's intention to continue this process so that all its operations will be audited over a three-year period. The audit of those operations selected for review during 2007 is currently in progress.
