Outlook
AngloGold Ashanti's production and total cash cost guidance for the full year 2010 are both unchanged at 4.5Moz to 4.7Moz at a total cash cost of USD590/oz to USD615/oz. This assumes an average exchange rate of R7.70/USD and an oil price of USD75/barrel. The group's press release dated 30 March 2010 flagged that second quarter production from Ghana will be 20 000 to 25 000 ounces lower, for reasons stated previously. In addition, Sunrise Dam will have a planned drop in quarterly production in the second quarter, but remains on track for the full year's target. The group is therefore guiding second quarter's production at similar levels recorded in the first quarter, i.e. 1.079Moz at a total cash cost of USD650/oz at a rand exchange rate of R7.40/USD for the quarter.
