Production Report for the third quarter ended 30 September 2023

Duncan Wanblad, Chief Executive of Anglo American, said: "Production in the third quarter overall was consistent with the same period in 2022. A 42% increase in copper production as Quellaveco's contribution ramps up was offset primarily by De Beers, as Venetia transitions to underground operations, and by performance at Moranbah and the Grosvenor ramp-up at the underground Steelmaking Coal operations.

"Our focus is on delivering our full year production guidance in line with a planned stronger second half of the year. Our production volumes increased by 4%⁽¹⁾ quarter-on-quarter, reflecting a step-up from our Steelmaking Coal operations driven by Aquila and at Grosvenor following the Q2 longwall move, operational improvements in the PGMs business and a progressive increase in volumes from Quellaveco. This was partially offset by planned maintenance programs at some operations and a planned reduction from Venetia, which continues to transition to underground operations. Copper production from Chile decreased due to ongoing ore hardness and an electrical substation fire at Los Bronces, resulting in a minor revision to guidance for our Chile operations. We are on track to deliver our full year guidance across all other products."

Q3 2023 highlights

• Copper production increased by 42%, reflecting the progressive increase in production from Quellaveco in Peru, while production from our operations in Chile decreased by 4%.

• Production from our Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) operations was broadly flat despite planned mining in a lower grade area at Mogalakwena.

• Iron ore production decreased by 4%, principally driven by planned plant maintenance at Minas-Rio.

• Nickel production decreased by 7%, mainly reflecting the impact of lower grades.

• Steelmaking coal production decreased by 21%, reflecting challenging strata conditions at Moranbah and the ramp-up of Grosvenor during July following the longwall move in Q2.

• Rough diamond production decreased by 23%, primarily due to the planned reduction as Venetia transitions to underground operations.

(1) Copper production shown on a contained metal basis. Reflects copper production from the Copper operations in Chile and Peru only (excludes copper production from the Platinum Group Metals business).

Copper production increased by 42% to 209,100 tonnes, due to the ramp-up of production from Quellaveco in Peru, while Chile's production decreased by 4%.

Chile - Copper production decreased by 4% to 121,600 tonnes, driven by lower grade and throughput at Los Bronces, partially offset by planned higher grade at Collahuasi.

Production from Los Bronces decreased by 20% to 45,800 tonnes, primarily driven by lower grades (0.49% vs. 0.58%) and throughput, due to a combination of continued higher ore hardness and an electrical substation fire that interrupted plant facilities' power supply for 16 days. The current unfavourable ore characteristics, including lower grade and higher ore hardness, in the current mining area will continue to impact operations until the next phase of the mine is accessed.

At Collahuasi, attributable production increased by 9% to 66,100 tonnes, driven by planned higher grades (1.19% vs. 1.08%) as well as higher throughput following the plant maintenance in Q2 2023.

Production from El Soldado increased by 5% to 9,700 tonnes, reflecting the benefit of mining in a higher grade area. However, this area had a known existing geotechnical fault line in the wall that was exacerbated by record levels of rain, with the production impact partially mitigated by processing lower grade ore from stockpiles. Mining operations have since resumed with a revised mine plan that aims to mitigate the ongoing risk of the geotechnical fault line.

The recent heavy rainfall in Chile´s central zone will reduce the need for alternative sources of water over the next couple of quarters. Towards the end of 2025, more than 45% of Los Bronces' needs will be met through a desalinated water supply.

The year to date average realised price of 388 c/lb includes 146,000 tonnes of copper provisionally priced on 30 September at an average of 375 c/lb.

Peru - Quellaveco produced 87,500 tonnes, reflecting the progressive ramp-up in production volumes, with the plant achieving throughput beyond nameplate capacity more frequently during the quarter as the tailings dam develops according to plan.

The year to date average realised price of 386 c/lb includes 109,000 tonnes of copper provisionally priced on 30 September at an average of 375 c/lb.

2023 Guidance

Production guidance for 2023 is revised to 830,000-870,000 tonnes (previously 840,000-930,000 tonnes) (Chile's guidance is revised to c.520,000 tonnes (previously 530,000-580,000 tonnes) due to unfavourable ore characteristics and an electrical substation fire at Los Bronces, as well as the impact of a geotechnical fault line on El Soldado's production; Peru unchanged at 310,000-350,000 tonnes).

Unit cost guidance for 2023 is unchanged at c.166 c/lb⁽¹⁾ (Chile c.205 c/lb⁽¹⁾; Peru c.100 c/lb⁽¹⁾).

(1) FX rate assumption for Q4 2023 costs of ~900 CLP:USD and ~3.9 PEN:USD (previously ~800 CLP:USD and ~3.7 PEN:USD).

Metal in concentrate production

Own mined production decreased by 3% to 665,800 ounces, due to lower production from Mogalakwena and Amandelbult.

Production at Mogalakwena decreased by 5% to 246,800 ounces, primarily due to mining in a planned lower grade area. Production at Amandelbult decreased by 4% to 184,900 ounces, due to continued poor ground conditions. These were partly offset by joint operations which increased production by 2% to 97,500 ounces, mainly due to improved grade at Modikwa.

Purchase of concentrate was flat at 363,800 ounces.

Refined production

Refined production decreased by 9% to 909,700 ounces, primarily due to an unplanned municipal water stoppage at the processing complex in Rustenburg and lower metal in concentrate production.

Eskom load-curtailment had a minimal impact on production for the quarter, with less than 5,000 ounces deferred for future processing.

Sales

Sales volumes increased by 2%.

The year to date average realised basket price was $1,766/PGM ounce, reflecting lower market prices compared to the same period in 2022.

2023 Guidance

Production guidance (metal in concentrate) for 2023 is unchanged at 3.6-4.0 million ounces⁽¹⁾. Refined production guidance for 2023 is 3.6-4.0 million ounces, subject to the impact of Eskom load-curtailment.

Unit cost guidance for 2023 is unchanged at c.$1,000/PGM ounce⁽²⁾.

(1) Metal in concentrate production is expected to be 1.6-1.8 million ounces of platinum, 1.2-1.3 million ounces of palladium and 0.8-0.9 million ounces of other PGMs and gold; with own mined output accounting for ~65%.

(2) FX rate assumption for Q4 2023 costs of ~19 ZAR:USD (previously ~18 ZAR:USD).

Rough diamond production decreased by 23% to 7.4 million carats, primarily due to the planned reduction in South Africa as Venetia transitions to underground operations and begins the ramp-up of production, as well as planned maintenance in Botswana.

In Botswana, production decreased by 12% to 5.8 million carats, driven by lower throughput at Orapa due to planned maintenance.

Production in Namibia was flat.

In South Africa, production decreased by 78% to 0.4 million carats, due to the planned end of Venetia's open pit operations in December 2022. Venetia will continue to process lower grade surface stockpiles as the underground operations ramp-up production over the next few years.

Production in Canada decreased by 9% to 0.7 million carats, due to planned treatment of lower grade ore.

As a result of the uncertain macro-economic environment and high levels of diamond inventory in the midstream, Sightholders took a cautious approach to their purchasing during the quarter. Rough diamond sales totalled 7.4 million carats (6.7 million carats on a consolidated basis)⁽²⁾ from three Sights, compared with 9.1 million carats (8.5 million carats on a consolidated basis)⁽²⁾ from three Sights in Q3 2022, and 7.6 million carats (6.4 million carats on a consolidated basis)⁽²⁾ from two Sights in Q2 2023.

Going forward, De Beers will continue to support its Sightholders to help re-establish equilibrium between wholesale supply and demand by providing full flexibility for rough diamond allocations in Sights 9 and 10 of 2023.

(1) Volumes are reported as wet metric tonnes. Product is shipped with ~1.6% moisture.

(2) Volumes are reported as wet metric tonnes. Product is shipped with ~9% moisture.

Iron ore production decreased by 4% to 15.4 million tonnes, primarily due to a 7% decrease at Minas-Rio, driven by planned plant maintenance and a 2% decrease at Kumba.

Kumba - Total production decreased by 2% to 9.7 million tonnes, driven by a 6% decrease in Sishen's production to 6.7 million tonnes due to high levels of finished stock at the mine as a result of third-party rail constraints. This was partially offset by a 6% increase at Kolomela to 3.1 million tonnes, as a result of improved operational stability and plant feedstock.

Total sales decreased by 11% to 8.9 million tonnes⁽¹⁾ primarily due to equipment failures at the port, operated by the third-party Transnet, which impacted ship loading as well as weather-related delays.

Total finished stock increased to 9.0 million tonnes⁽¹⁾, with stock at the port increasing to 1.8 million tonnes⁽¹⁾ (Q2 2023: 0.6 million tonnes⁽¹⁾), which will support an efficient ramp-up in operations at the port following the Transnet annual shut-down for rail and port maintenance in October.

Kumba's iron (Fe) content averaged 63.5% (YTD 2022: 63.9%), while the average lump:fines ratio was 66:34 (YTD 2022: 66:34).

The year to date average realised price of $110/tonne⁽¹⁾ (FOB South Africa, wet basis) was 10% higher than the 62% Fe benchmark price of $100/tonne (FOB South Africa, adjusted for freight and moisture), driven by the lump and Fe content quality premiums that the Kumba products attract.

Minas-Rio - Production decreased by 7% to 5.7 million tonnes, driven by planned plant maintenance.

The year to date average realised price of $106/tonne (FOB Brazil, wet basis) was 7% higher than the Metal Bulletin 65 price of $99/tonne (FOB Brazil, adjusted for freight and moisture), driven by the premium for our high quality product, including higher (~67%) Fe content.

2023 Guidance

Production guidance for 2023 is unchanged at 57-61 million tonnes (Kumba 35-37 million tonnes; Minas-Rio 22-24 million tonnes). Kumba is subject to third-party rail and port performance.

Unit cost guidance for 2023 is unchanged at c.$39/tonne⁽²⁾ (Kumba c.$43/tonne⁽²⁾; Minas-Rio c.$33/tonne⁽²⁾).

(1) Sales volumes, stock and realised price are reported on a wet basis and could differ to Kumba's stand-alone results due to sales to other Group companies.

(2) FX rate assumption for Q4 2023 costs of ~19 ZAR:USD for Kumba and ~5.0 BRL:USD for Minas-Rio (previously ~18 ZAR:USD and ~4.8 BRL:USD).

Steelmaking Coal	4,356	5,510	(21)%	3,356	30%	11,245	10,357	9%

(1) Anglo American's attributable share of production. Includes production relating to processing of third-party product.

Steelmaking coal production decreased by 21% to 4.4 million tonnes, impacted by challenging strata conditions at the Moranbah longwall operation and the ramp-up of Grosvenor during July following the longwall move in Q2. This was partially offset by higher production from the Capcoal open cut operation and the Aquila longwall.

During the quarter, the ratio of hard coking coal production to PCI/semi-soft coking coal was 74:26, lower than Q3 2022 (83:17), reflecting lower production from the underground longwall operations that produce premium hard coking coal.

The realised price differs from the average market price due to differences in material grade and timing of shipments. The year to date average realised price for hard coking coal was $264/tonne, compared to the benchmark price of $284/tonne. The year to date price realisation increased to 93% (YTD 2022: 82%), driven by higher sales volumes of premium hard coking coal from the underground longwall operations in 2023 and the impact of sales timing.

2023 Guidance

Production guidance for 2023 is unchanged at 16-19 million tonnes.

Unit cost guidance for 2023 is unchanged at c.$105/tonne⁽¹⁾.

Exploration and evaluation

Exploration and evaluation expenditure was broadly flat at $90 million (Q3 2022: $87 million). Exploration expenditure decreased by 5% to $38 million. Evaluation expenditure increased by 11% to $52 million, primarily driven by higher spend in PGMs and steelmaking coal.

Corporate and other activities

Despite a strong focus on working capital through the second half of the year, opportunities to unwind the largely price-driven builds reported in the first half of the year have been limited. In addition, inventory at De Beers continues to build, reflecting weaker market sentiment.

Following a successful ramp-up, it is expected that Quellaveco will distribute ~$0.8 billion to its shareholders by the end of year, with the payment of Mitsubishi's 40% share increasing the Group's net debt.

Notes

• This Production Report for the third quarter ended 30 September 2023 is unaudited.

• Production figures are sometimes more precise than the rounded numbers shown in this Production Report.

• Copper equivalent production shows changes in underlying production volume, and includes the equity share of De Beers' production. It is calculated by expressing each product's volume as revenue, subsequently converting the revenue into copper equivalent units by dividing by the copper price (per tonne). Long-term forecast prices are used, in order that period-on-period comparisons exclude any impact for movements in price.
