Sir Ernest Oppenheimer founded the Anglo American Corporation in 1917 with
financial backing from the American bank, J.P. Morgan & Co. and £1 million
raised from UK and US sources to start a gold mining
company on the Witwatersrand near Johannesburg. This fact is reflected in
the name of the company. Today Anglo American plc is a multinational mining
company based in Johannesburg, South Africa (established as Anglo American
Corporation in 1917) and in London, United Kingdom (established as Anglo
American plc in 1999). It is the world's largest producer of platinum,
with around 40% of world output, as well as being a major producer of gold, diamonds,
copper, nickel, iron ore and metallurgical and thermal coal. The company
has operations in Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, North America and South
America.
Today its main major business units are:
- Anglo Gold Ashanti (official
website)
- De Beers (official website )
- Anglo American Kumba (official
website)
- Anglo American Platinum (official
website).

The flag of the Anglo American Corporation is the company logo in the centre of
a white field. The logo comprises a stylised mineral rock in the corporate
colours of red and blue adjacent to the name of the company.
