Anglo American plc announces the value of rough diamond sales (Global Sightholder Sales and
Auction Sales) for De Beers' seventh sales cycle of 2019, amounting to $280 million.

Bruce Cleaver, CEO, De Beers Group, said: "With midstream participants continuing to work
down polished diamond inventory levels and reduced levels of manufacturing in the key cutting
centres, De Beers Group provided customers with further supply flexibility during the seventh
cycle of 2019."
