The world’s leading gold-miner, AngloGold, has been awarded
the Sustainability Leader prize in the precious-metals sector by
the Dow Jones Sustainability World Indexes (DJSI World) .
AngloGold achieved the highest total score of any of the companies
included in the precious-metals sector. This rating was based upon
AngloGold’s high level of performance across the three
dimensions of corporate sustainabilcrusher belt conveyor maintenance pricesity: economic, social and
environmental. The DJSI measures corporate sustainability as
‘a busineopportunities of stone crusher businessss approach that creates long-term shareholder value

sustainability leaders achieve long-term shareholder value creation
by gearing their strategies and management to harness the
market’s potential for sustainability products and services
while at the same time successfully reducing and avoiding
sustainability costs and risks.
AngloGold chairperson and CEO, Bobby Godsell, said “I am
pleased that we have been recognised as corporate sustainability
leader of all precious-metals companies by the DSJI World.
“This performance once again demonstrates AngloGold’s
high level of commitment to our shareholders, employees and the
communities and environments in which we operate.” AngloGold
is currently making a takeover offer for Normandy,
Australia’s largest listed gold-mining company. On November
14, Newmont Mining Corporation announced that it intended to make a
competing offer for Normandy. On November 29, AngloGold’s
offer was revised and declared free of all defeating conditions.
Currently both AngloGold and Normandy are members of the DJSI World
while Newmont is not.
If Normandy shareholders vote to accept the AngloGold offer the
combined companies would retain their listing with the DJSI World,
but this would not occur if the competing offer were to be
accepted.
