(1) Cycle 4 2023 provisional sales value represents sales as at
16 May 2023.
(2) Cycle 3 2023 actual sales value represents sales between the
dates of 27 March and 11 April.
(3) Sales values are quoted on a consolidated accounting basis.
Auction sales included in a given cycle are the sum of all sales
between the end of the preceding cycle and the end of the noted
cycle.
The provisional rough diamond sales figure quoted for Cycle 4
represents the expected sales value for the period 1 and 16 May and
remains subject to adjustment based on final completed sales.
Al Cook, CEO of De Beers, said: "Sales of our rough diamonds in
the fourth sales cycle of the year saw a small decrease from the
previous cycle as the industry has entered what is traditionally a
seasonally quieter period. Rough diamond demand was also influenced
by ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and a slower pace of recovery
in consumer demand from China than was widely anticipated."

Such forward-looking statements are based on numerous
assumptions regarding Anglo American's present and future business
strategies and the environment in which Anglo American will operate
in the future. Important factors that could cause Anglo American's
actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially
from those in the forward-looking statements include, among others,

effects of global pandemics and outbreaks of infectious diseases,
the outcome of litigation or regulatory proceedings, the
