RNS No 7070e MINORCO S.A. 7th December 1998 MINORCO, ANGLOGOLD REACH AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE ON MINORCO'S GOLD INTERESTS Minorco and AngloGold have reached an agreement in principle, in terms of which AngloGold will purchase Minorco's gold interests for US$550 million cash. The purchase price is subject to an adjustment for net current assets and long term debt, as at 31 December 1998. The agreement in principle follows the completion of a competitive auction process which involved a number of interested parties. It began earlier this year after a review by Minorco of its options to maximise the potential and value of its gold assets. The Minorco gold interests include: * wholly owned Independence Mining Company (IMC), which incorporates Pikes Peak Mining Company in Colorado and a 70 per cent stake in the Jerritt Canyon Joint Venture in Nevada, USA; * the wholly owned Mineracao Morro Velho mines and a 50 per cent joint venture in the Mineracao Serra Grande mines, both in Brazil; * a 46.25 per cent stake in the Cerro Vanguardia mine in Argentina; and * gold exploration activities in the Americas. Minorco's gold operations currently produce some 800,000 attributable ounces a year. The acquisition of these operations will increase AngloGold's annual output by 12 per cent to 7.5 million attributable ounces. Commenting on the sale, Minorco CEO Hank Slack said: "This is a favourable transaction for Minorco. The sale price puts a value on Minorco's gold assets which in the past was not reflected in our share price and will enable Minorco to reduce its debt levels accordingly". AngloGold CEO Bobby Godsell said: "We are confident that these new assets will enhance AngloGold and add value for shareholders. This represents one important step towards our becoming a globally active gold company." The agreement in principle is subject to the signing of a final agreement and the fulfilment of certain conditions precedent, including the approval of the respective boards of directors, AngloGold shareholders and various regulatory authorities.
