AngloGold Ashanti to sell Brazilian Serra Grande mine for $76m plus royalties

AngloGold Ashanti to sell Brazilian Serra Grande mine for m plus royalties

AngloGold Ashanti, a leading global gold mining company, has recently announced a significant agreement to sell its stake in the Mineração Serra Grande mine in Goiás, Brazil. The buyer, Aura Minerals, has agreed to acquire the mine for a total cash consideration of $76 million (R1.36 billion). In addition to the initial payment, there are also deferred consideration payments linked to a 3% net smelter return on the mine’s mineral resources.

The Mineração Serra Grande mine is strategically located near the city of Crixás and consists of three mechanized underground mines and an open pit operation. The mine’s metallurgical plant boasts an impressive annual capacity of 1.5 million tonnes (mt). Despite recent efforts to improve operational stability, such as the near-completion of decommissioning activities at the legacy tailings storage facility, the mine remains one of AngloGold Ashanti’s higher-cost and smaller operations in terms of production.

As part of the transaction, certain subsidiaries holding non-operational assets will be spun off and retained by AngloGold Ashanti. These subsidiaries, currently under the Mineração Serra Grande operations, will be transferred out before the completion of the sale. The deal is subject to various conditions, including antitrust approval from Brazilian authorities, finalizing the tailings storage facility decommissioning, and the transfer of the aforementioned subsidiaries.

Alberto Calderon, CEO of AngloGold Ashanti, expressed his satisfaction with the sale, emphasizing that it aligns with the company’s strategic focus on capital allocation, operational efficiencies, and portfolio optimization. He also highlighted the importance of ensuring that the Mineração Serra Grande mine and its dedicated team transition to a responsible stewardship under Aura Minerals for the benefit of all stakeholders.

In related news, AngloGold Ashanti and Gold Fields have decided to pause discussions on a potential joint venture involving their Iduapriem and Tarkwa mines in Ghana. This decision allows both companies to concentrate on enhancing the standalone performances of their respective mines. Since the initial JV proposition in March 2023, AngloGold Ashanti has identified promising opportunities within its Iduapriem mine plan.

The announcement of the sale of the Mineração Serra Grande mine underscores AngloGold Ashanti’s commitment to strategic divestments and operational improvements. This development, along with the pause in JV discussions, signals the company’s proactive approach to enhancing shareholder value and operational effectiveness.
