A gold mining company that digs for the precious metal at mines across Africa, the Americas, and Australia, producing gold used in jewelry, electronics, and as a store of value. It was born in 2004 when South Africa's AngloGold merged with Ghana's Ashanti Goldfields, combining the Anglo American mining legacy with a company whose Obuasi mine in Ghana has been worked for more than a century. The name itself is a handshake of two continents: "Anglo" from its South African roots and "Ashanti" from the Ghanaian kingdom where its oldest mine sits.
