Multiple options - typically value accretive with sustainability benefits
1. Cash expenditure on property, plant and equipment including related derivatives, net of proceeds from disposal of property, plant and equipment and includes direct funding for capital expenditure from non-controlling interests. Shown excluding
capitalised operating cash flows. Guidance includes unapproved projects and is, therefore, subject to progress of growth project studies and Woodsmith is excluded after 2023. 'From' column represents first production.
2. Attributable share post syndication proceeds. 100% of production volumes; 60% attributable share of production: 180ktpa. Excludes the coarse particle recovery capex approved in February 2021.
3. Attributable share of capex. 100% of production volumes.
4. Attributable share of capex and production volumes. The 5th ball mill has been approved, other near-term initiatives (e.g. leaching) under phase 1 are under study.
5. This capex refers to the implementation of Ultra High Dense Media Separation (UHDMS) technology at Sishen. -$1/t premium applies to -50% of volumes. Due to additional complexities identified, the project has been delayed pending a further
review. Metrics are subject to the outcome of the review.
6. Capex spend for 2020-2023 is approved. Ongoing technical review confirmed there are several improvements to modify design to bring it up to Anglo American's safety and operating integrity standards and optimise value for the long term. Final
design engineering under way; capex & schedule then subject to Board approval.
7. Includes capex on SA RREE (Southern Africa Regional Renewable Energy Ecosystem) and nuGen™
