The above is a geographical analysis presented by location of assets.
The Group’s operations are primarily involved in gold mining, exploration and related activities. Activities are conducted and investments held both inside and outside South Africa. The segment results have been prepared and presented based on management’s reporting format. Gold mining operations are managed and internally reported based on the following geographical areas: in South Africa, South Deep mine, in Ghana, Tarkwa, Damang and Asanko mines, in Australia, St Ives, Agnew, Granny Smith and Gruyere, in Peru, the Cerro Corona mine and in Chile, the Salares Norte Project. The Group also has exploration interests which are included in the “Corporate and other” segment. Refer to accounting policies on segment reporting on page 162.
Figures may not add as they are rounded independently.
1The income statement and statement of financial position of South Deep is that of the operating mine and does not include any of the adjustments made in respect of the purchase price allocation relating to the acquisition of South Deep. South Deep Gold mine, being an unincorporated joint venture, is not liable for taxation. Taxation included in South Deep is indicative, as tax is provided in the holding companies at a rate of 29%.
2For the purpose of the review of the segment by the CODM, Asanko’s income statement is proportionately consolidated in the Ghana segment. Equity Accounted Joint Venture carried at US$59.5 million.
3“Corporate and other” represents the items to reconcile segment data to consolidated financial statement totals, including the elimination of intercompany transactions and balances as well as the Group’s exploration interests. This does not represent a separate segment as it does not generate revenue. Included in “Corporate and other” is the adjustment made in respect of the purchase price allocation of South Deep.
4Other costs “Corporate and other” comprise share of losses of equity-accounted investees, net of taxation of US$32.0 million, (which include the impairment of mining assets at Asanko Gold Mine of US$52.8 million) and the balance of US$11.7 million expenses which consists mainly of corporate related costs.
5The Australian operations are entitled to transfer and off-set profits and losses from one company to another, therefore it is not meaningful to split the royalties, income or deferred taxation.
6Capital expenditure for the year ended 31 December 2021.
7Includes revenue from the sale of copper amounting to US$232.3 million.
8In 2021 Salares Norte became a reportable segment, as the CODM has started monitoring the capital expenditure and progress towards completion. The comparative figures have been disclosed.

The above is a geographical analysis presented by location of assets.
The Group's continuing operations are primarily involved in gold mining, exploration and related activities. Activities are conducted and investments held both inside and outside South Africa. The segment results have been prepared and presented based on management's reporting format. Gold mining operations are managed and internally reported based on the following geographical areas: in South Africa, South Deep mine, in Ghana, Tarkwa and Damang mines, in Australia, St Ives, Agnew/ Lawlers, Granny Smith and Gruyere Gold project and in Peru, the Cerro Corona mine. Whilst the Gruyere Gold project does not meet the quantitative criteria for disclosure as a separate segment, it is expected to become a significant contributor to the Group's performance in future years as the project is being developed. The Group also has exploration interests which are included in the "Corporate and other" segment. Refer to accounting policies on segment reporting on page 162.
Figures may not add as they are rounded independently.

This does not represent a separate segment as it does not generate revenue. Included in “Corporate and other” is the adjustment made in respect of the purchase price allocation of South Deep.
4Other costs “Corporate and other” comprise share of profit of equity-accounted investees, net of taxation of US$3.1 million, loss on buy-back of the US$1 billion notes of US$5.0 million and the balance of US$18.9 million consists mainly of corporate-related costs.
5The Australian operations are entitled to transfer and off-set profits and losses from one company to another, therefore it is not meaningful to split the royalties, income or deferred taxation.
