are not considering a full-scale merger after they agreed to combine their neighbouring Tarkwa and Iduapriem mines in Ghana to create Africa’s biggest gold mine, the two companies said on Thursday.

When asked by reporters if a merger was under consideration, AngloGold CEO Alberto Calderon said: “We are in similar places around the world, but for now this is the thing we are focused on.
