Working together to create lasting value for our people, communities, country and the planet

Mining has always been about more than the resources we extract. It is about what those resources enable: shared progress, resilient communities and the growth of South Africa’s broader economy and capabilities.

For more than 100 years, Anglo American has been part of South Africa’s story. During that time, we have worked with partners, government and communities to grow skills, strengthen institutions and support meaningful participation in local economies.

Our impact can be seen in practical ways, in colleagues building long-term careers, in entrepreneurs supported through Zimele, our Enterprise Development Programme, in municipal teams building the skills needed to support service delivery, in youth receiving access to education and digital tools, and in the environmental stewardship that protects the natural ecosystems around our operations.

Today, our focus is on securing and providing future-enabling metals and minerals, supported by responsible operational practices, ongoing innovation and a commitment to environmental care. With partners across sectors, we work to strengthen the social, economic and ecological systems that support resilient communities during mining and beyond it.

Transformation is ongoing and shared. It is shaped by consistent action, accountability and collaboration. The stories featured here reflect how we continue mining potential and building beyond, re-imagining mining to improve people’s lives.
