NEWS RELEASE

AngloGold Ashanti Provides Update on Argentina Operations

(PRESS RELEASE) – AngloGold Ashanti provides an update on its operations in Argentina given the

recent countrywide restrictions on travel and border closings to the end of this month.

There are no COVID-19 cases at the Cerro Vanguardia mine, the company’s only operation in

Argentina, and which is set to account for about 6% of this year’s production.

Cerro Vanguardia will be required to suspend mining activities during the period of these current

restrictions, which are scheduled to last to the end of March. Safety and environmental monitoring

activities will continue. Plans are being developed to help regain delayed production once mining

operations resume.

This situation related to COVID-19 is evolving rapidly and the Company will continue to assess

developments as they occur.

Background

AngloGold Ashanti remains in a state of high-alert and preparedness to deal with the global

challenge presented by the COVID-19 outbreak. The company has created heightened awareness

around the COVID-19 virus and steps to prevent its spread, stepped up screening and surveillance of

employees, banned non-essential travel, instituted clear self-quarantine measures where applicable

and increased hygiene awareness and facilities across its operations, in addition to a range of other

measures taken to mitigate the risks presented by the virus.

AngloGold Ashanti has a multi-disciplinary COVID-19 taskforce directing the company’s global

response to the crisis, with input from its health, operational, travel, human resources, community

relations, finance and supply teams, among others. Each office and site have emergency

preparedness plans in place, developed in line with national protocols and plans. The first aim is to

protect employees, their families and our host communities.

The worldwide outbreak has thus far not impacted AngloGold Ashanti’s production. The company is,

however, constantly monitoring the situation as it unfolds, all the time remaining in close contact

with authorities in each country and with our key suppliers and other business partners, to help

ensure business continuity and mitigate any interruptions that may occur. The company is also

working with community groups and local authorities, to understand where it can provide support to

healthcare systems as they gear up to manage the pandemic.

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 could differ

United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). 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. Consequently, readers are cautioned
not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. AngloGold Ashanti undertakes no obligation to update publicly or
