NEWS RELEASE

Anglo American rough diamond sales value for De Beers’ third sales cycle of 2018

Anglo American plc announces the value of rough diamond sales (Global Sightholder Sales and
Auction Sales) for De Beers’ third sales cycle of 2018, amounting to $520 million.

Bruce Cleaver, CEO of De Beers, said: “While the second quarter of the year is traditionally a
seasonally slower period, we continued to see good rough diamond demand in the third sales
cycle of 2018 as diamond businesses have focused on restocking following healthy consumer
demand for diamond jewellery in the US and China.”
