NEWS RELEASE

AngloGold Ashanti to make a strategic investment in G2 Goldfields Inc.

AngloGold Ashanti plc (“AGA”or the“Company”) is pleased to announce that it intends, subject to execution of definitive documentation and satisfaction of customary conditions, to subscribe (the “Subscription”) for 24,500,000 common shares (the “Shares”) in G2 Goldfields Inc. (“G2”) at C$0.90 per share for total consideration of C$22,050,000.

Following completion of the Subscription, AGA will own approximately 11.7% of G2’s issued and outstanding Shares.

G2 is actively exploring in Guyana, a country which hosts the Guiana Shield, one of the world’s most prospective gold provinces. The Guiana Shield is host to a number of significant deposits including the Aurora (6Moz) and Omai (5Moz) mines and the Toraparu (7.0Moz) deposit in Guyana; the Rosebel (13.7Moz) and Merian (6Moz) mines in Suriname; and the Montagne d’Or (3.9Moz) and Camp Caiman (2.9Moz) deposits in French Guiana.

The G2 team, led by Patrick Sheridan, Executive Chairman and Dan Noone, CEO is comprised of professionals who have been directly responsible for the discovery of millions of ounces of gold in Guyana as well as the financing and development of Aurora, Guyana’s largest gold mine.

G2’s principal OKO project comprises the OKO Main Zone and Ghanie deposits. G2 announced in April 2022, an Indicated Mineral Resource estimate for the OKO Main Zone containing 220,000 oz Au (793,000 tonnes grading 8.63 g/t Au) and an Inferred Mineral Resource estimate of 974,000 oz Au (3,274,000 tonnes, grading 9.25 g/t Au). G2 intends to publish a Mineral Resource update in the first half of 2024.

G2 has other exploration targets within a 20km radius of OKO Main and Ghanie, which are located directly adjacent to Reunion Gold Corporation’s OKO West discovery and where an Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 4.24Moz, grading 1.91 g/t, was published in June 2023.

AGA believes that G2’s exploration properties have significant growth potential.

As part of the Subscription, AGA will be granted pre-emptive and top-up rights for future security issuances by G2.

Commenting on the Subscription, Alberto Calderon, CEO of AngloGold Ashanti said “This strategic investment in G2 will provide us with a strong position in one of the world’s key gold provinces with significant potential for new discoveries. We look forward to G2’s continued exploration success as the Guiana Shield continues to develop.”

The Subscription is expected to close in January 2024. subject to execution of definitive documentation and satisfaction of customary conditions.

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.
