Perenti Limited has announced that its subsidiary mining business African Mining Services via the AMAX LTD joint venture, has reached agreement with AngloGold Ashanti on an orderly transition plan at the Iduapriem Gold Mine in Ghana.

Iduapriem is an opencast mine in the Western Region of Ghana where AMS has been providing mining services
since 2018 via a joint venture with local partner, MaxMass.

Under the terms of the agreement, AMAX will continue
to deliver mining services at Iduapriem until contract completion. At the end of the contract the majority of the
AMS owned equipment on site will be sold to AngloGold Ashanti under a valuation methodology agreed in the
contract, with expected proceeds to AMS estimated to be between AUS$30 million and AUS$40 million.

The contract details are:

  • Contract value: Circa AUS$95 million.
  • Contract term: Circa 6 months from 17 July 2026.
  • Services: Surface mining and related supporting services.
  • Fleet sale: Sale proceeds of approximately AUS$30-40 million at the contract conclusion.

Vanessa Torres, Managing Director & CEO of Perenti said, “I’m pleased we have reached an agreement for the
transition at Iduapriem, reflecting AMS’s long-standing record of strong operational delivery and enduring
partnerships across Africa. Additionally, the agreed sale of equipment at the end of the contract provides certainty
and the opportunity to recycle capital within Perenti.

The expected proceeds will be allocated towards several
value-accretive opportunities currently under consideration.”

Gabrielle Iwanow, President of Contract Mining at Perenti said, “Finalising the Iduapriem transition agreement
with AngloGold Ashanti is another important step for the evolution of our contract mining portfolio. The AMS
team is justifiably proud of the performance delivered at Iduapriem over the last 8 years and remains committed
to delivering the same professional services until the handover of operations. As growth options continue to
emerge, contract mining is exceptionally well positioned for the future.”
