Anglo American is a leading global mining company and our products are the essential ingredients in almost every
aspect of modern life. Our portfolio of world-class competitive operations, development projects and undeveloped
resources, provides many of the metals and minerals that enable a cleaner, greener, more sustainable world and
that meet the fast growing consumer-driven demands of developed and maturing economies. With our people at
the heart of our business, we use innovative practices and the latest technologies to mine, process, move and
market our products to our customers – and to discover new resources – safely and sustainably.
As a responsible producer of diamonds (through De Beers), copper, platinum group metals, the steelmaking
ingredients of iron ore and metallurgical coal, and nickel – with crop nutrients in development and thermal coal
operations planned for divestment – we are committed to being carbon neutral across our operations by 2040.
We work together with our business partners and diverse stakeholders to unlock sustainable value from precious
natural resources for the benefit of the communities and countries in which we operate, for society as a whole,
and for our shareholders. Anglo American is re-imagining mining to improve people’s lives.

This announcement includes forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts
included in this announcement, including, without limitation, those regarding Kumba’s financial position, business,
acquisition and divestment strategy, dividend policy, plans and objectives of management for future operations
(including development plans and objectives relating to Kumba’s products, production forecasts and Ore Reserves
and Mineral Resource estimates), are forward-looking statements. By their nature, such forward-looking
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results,
performance or achievements of Kumba, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions regarding Kumba’s present and future
business strategies and the environment in which Kumba will operate in the future. Important factors that could
cause Kumba’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those in the forward -looking
statements include, among others, levels of actual production during any period, levels of global demand and
commodity market prices, mineral resource exploration and development capabilities, recovery rates and other
operational capabilities, the effects of global pandemics and outbreaks of infectious diseases, the availability of
mining and processing equipment, the ability to produce and transport products profitably, the availability of
transport infrastructure, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on market prices and operating costs, the
availability of sufficient credit, the effects of inflation, political uncertainty and economic conditions, the actions of
competitors, activities by governmental authorities such as permitting and changes in taxation or safety, health,
environmental or other types of regulation, conflicts over land and resource ownership rights and such other risk
factors identified in Kumba’s most recent Integrated Report. Forward-looking statements should, therefore, be
construed in light of such risk factors and undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this announcement. Kumba expressly disclaims
any obligation or undertaking (except as required by applicable law, the Takeover Regulation Panel, the Listings
Requirements of the securities exchange of the JSE Limited in South Africa, the Financial Sector Conduct
Authority and any other applicable regulations) to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking
statement contained herein to reflect any change in Kumba’s expectations with regard thereto or any change in
events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. Nothing in this announcement should
be interpreted to mean that future earnings per share of Kumba will necessarily match or exceed its historical
published earnings per share.
