Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This Statement on Schedule 13D, as amended from time to time (this “Statement”), relates to the ordinary shares, par value ZAR 0.25 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), of AngloGold Ashanti Limited (formerly, AngloGold Limited), a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of South Africa (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 76 Jeppe Street, Newtown, Johannesburg, 2001 (PO Box 62117, Marshalltown, 2107) South Africa.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

This Statement is being jointly filed by Anglo American plc and Anglo South Africa Capital (Proprietary) Limited (together, the “Reporting Persons”).

Anglo American plc (“Anglo American”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of England and Wales, has its principal executive offices at 20 Carlton House Terrace, London SW1Y 5AN, United Kingdom and is a global leader in the mining and natural resource sectors.

Anglo South Africa Capital (Proprietary) Limited (“Anglo SA Capital”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Republic of South Africa, has its principal executive offices at 44 Main Street, Johannesburg, 2001, South Africa and is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Anglo American.

Anglo SA Capital is a wholly owned subsidiary of Anglo South Africa (Pty) Ltd. (“ASA”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Anglo American South Africa Limited (“AASA”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Anglo American International S.a.r.l. (“AA International”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Anglo American (ASA, AASA, and AA International, collectively the “Holding Companies”). Other than pursuant to the directions received from Anglo American, none of the Holding Companies has or shares the voting power or investment power within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

The directors and executive officers of each of Anglo American and Anglo SA Capital are set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

To its knowledge, Anglo American is the largest shareholder of the Issuer.

In order to give the Issuer greater flexibility to pursue its strategic agenda, the Reporting Persons have decided to reduce or dispose of their shareholding in the Issuer and no longer to seek to retain it as a subsidiary.

On February 22, 2006, Anglo American issued a press release stating the following in its entirety:

ANGLO AMERICAN ANNOUNCES PROPOSED PUBLIC SECONDARY OFFERING OF
ORDINARY SHARES OF ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI.

Anglo American plc (“Anglo American”) today announces its intention to sell through a registered offering a portion of its ordinary shares of AngloGold Ashanti in the form of ordinary shares or American depositary shares, as one means of reducing its shareholding in AngloGold Ashanti. The offering would be made simultaneously in the US, South Africa and Europe. The offering is anticipated to occur at some time over the coming months, subject to market conditions.

Anglo American currently intends to remain a significant shareholder in AngloGold Ashanti in the medium term.

THIS COMMUNICATION DOES NOT CONSTITUTE OR FORM PART OF AN OFFER TO SELL OR THE SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO BUY SECURITIES OR OTHERWISE ENGAGE IN ANY INVESTMENT ACTIVITY, NOR WILL THERE BE ANY SALE OF THE SECURITIES IN ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH OFFER, SOLICITATION OR SALE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL PRIOR TO REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION.

Certain statements contained herein may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, risks associated with the transactions described above.

On March 23, 2006 Anglo SA Capital entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Issuer to facilitate the sale to the public of some or all of the Ordinary Shares held by Anglo SA Capital. The terms of the Registration Rights Agreement are discussed in Item 6 below.

On March 23, 2006 an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on Form F-3 in respect of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer and a preliminary prospectus was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On March 24, 2006 a preliminary prospectus supplement relating to those Ordinary Shares was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and on April 12, 2006 a final prospectus supplement relating to those Ordinary Shares was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On April 20, 2006, Anglo SA Capital sold a portion of its holding of Ordinary Shares of the Issuer in a registered offering pursuant to this registration statement.

On April 10, 2006 Issuer and Anglo SA Capital entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman, Sachs & Co. and UBS Limited as co-representatives of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I thereto pursuant to which Anglo SA Capital has agreed, subject to customary closing conditions, to sell up to 20,273,170 of the Ordinary Shares held by it in a registered offering pursuant to the registration statement referred to in the previous paragraph. The terms of the Underwriting Agreement are discussed in Item 6 below.

On April 20, 2006 Anglo SA Capital disposed of 19,685,170 of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. As a consequence of this disposition, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer was reduced to approximately 41.58%.

On October 1, 2007, a preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On October 2, 2007, a final prospectus supplement relating to the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

On October 1, 2007 Issuer and Anglo SA Capital entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs International and UBS Limited as representatives of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I thereto pursuant to which Anglo SA Capital has agreed, subject to customary closing conditions, to sell up to 67,100,000 of the Ordinary Shares held by it in a registered offering pursuant to the preliminary prospectus supplement referred to in the previous paragraph. The terms of the Underwriting Agreement are discussed in Item 6 below.

On October 9, 2007, Anglo SA Capital disposed of 67,100,000 of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. As a consequence of this disposition, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer was reduced to approximately 17.3% as of October 9, 2007.

The representatives of Anglo American remaining on the Issuer’s Board of Directors resigned from the Issuer’s Board of Directors on October 9, 2007.

On May 30, 2008, the Issuer filed a prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to its prospectus, dated March 23, 2006, relating to the resale by Anglo SA Capital of up to 11,335,259 share subscription rights (or the equivalent number of American Depositary Share subscription rights), exercisable for up to 11,335,259 ordinary shares (or the equivalent number of American Depositary Shares) of the Issuer (such rights, the “Share Subscription Rights”). Anglo SA Capital received the Share Subscription Rights in a pro rata distribution to shareholders of the Issuer on June 9, 2008. For more information on the Share Subscription Rights, see the response to Item 5, below.

On July 4, 2008 the subscription period in respect of the Share Subscription Rights expired. Anglo SA Capital exercised 11,172,254 Share Subscription Rights at a subscription price of 194.00 South African Rand per ordinary share (approximately $25.16 per ordinary share based on the noon exchange rate of $1=ZAR7.7100 reported by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for July 3, 2008). On July 7, 2008, Anglo SA Capital received 11,172,254 ordinary shares from the Issuer in settlement of this exercise.

On January 16, 2009, Anglo SA Capital filed a Notice of Proposed Sale of Securities on Form 144 (the “First Form 144”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to which Anglo SA Capital indicated its intention to sell 10,386,299 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (the “First Rule 144 Sales”), including sales in the form of American Depositary Shares, in transactions meeting the requirements of Rule 144(f) under the Securities Act. On January 19, 2009, Anglo SA Capital authorized and instructed UBS South Africa (Pty) Ltd., UBS Limited and UBS Securities, LLC, to carry out the First Rule 144 Sales from time to time over the facilities of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (the “JSE”) and the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). As of February 5, 2009, Anglo American had sold all of the Ordinary Shares to which the First Form 144 relates. As a consequence of the First Rule 144 Sales conducted from January 19, 2009 to February 5, 2009, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer was reduced to approximately 13.3% as of February 5, 2009.

On February 9, 2009, Anglo SA Capital filed a second Notice of Proposed Sale of Securities on Form 144 (the “Second Form 144”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to which Anglo SA Capital indicated its intention to sell an additional 3,639,401 Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (the “Second Rule 144 Sales”), including sales in the form of American Depositary Shares, in transactions meeting the requirements of Rule 144(f) under the Securities Act.

-5-


UBS South Africa (Pty) Ltd., UBS Limited and UBS Securities, LLC, to carry out the Rule 144 Sales from time to time over the facilities of the JSE and the NYSE.  As of February 18, 2009, Anglo American had sold all of the 1,474,283 Ordinary Shares to which the Third Form 144 relates. As a consequence of the Third Rule 144 Sales, the Reporting Persons’ beneficial ownership of the outstanding Ordinary Shares of the Issuer was reduced to approximately 11.88% as of February 18, 2009.

The Reporting Persons intend to continuously review their holdings in the Issuer on a regular basis and, as a result thereof, in determining plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer, may at any time or from time to time determine to (a) dispose of any securities of the Issuer owned by them in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, in such quantities and at such times as may be determined from time to time, or (b) take any other available course of action, which could involve one or more of the types of transactions or have one or more of the results described in the next paragraph of this Item 4. In reaching any decision as to their course of action (as well as to the specific elements thereof), the Reporting Persons currently expect that they would take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the Issuer’s business, financial condition and prospects, other developments concerning the Issuer and its equity financing requirements and its businesses generally, other developments and other business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, developments with respect to the Reporting Persons’ business and general economic outlook, changes in law and government regulations, general economic conditions, and money, currency, commodity and stock market conditions, including the market price of the securities of the Issuer.

Other than as set forth in this Statement, the Reporting Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the following (although the Reporting Persons reserve the right to develop such plans or proposals in the future): (i) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Issuer, or the disposition of securities of the Issuer, (ii) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the Issuer or of any of its subsidiaries, (iv) any change in the present Board of Directors or management of the Issuer, (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of the Issuer, (vi) any other material change in the Issuer’s business or corporate structure, (vii) changes in the Issuer’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person, (viii) a class of securities of the Issuer being delisted from a national securities exchange or ceasing to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association, (ix) a class of equity securities of the Issuer becoming eligible for termination of registration, or (x) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) The responses of the Reporting Persons to Rows (11) through (13) of the cover pages of this Statement are incorporated herein by reference. As of February 18, 2009 the Reporting Persons are the sole beneficial owners of 41,675,200 Ordinary Shares representing 11.88% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares. The calculation of the foregoing percentage is based on 350,687,488 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of October 31, 2008, as reported by the Issuer in its prospectus supplement dated December 15, 2008, and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 15, 2008 (the “Outstanding Shares”).

Mr. G.G. Gomwe is a beneficial owner of 150 Ordinary Shares, and has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to such Ordinary Shares. The number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Gomwe represents less than 0.1% of the Outstanding Shares.

As trustee of The BRO Trust, Mr. N.F. Oppenheimer shares with his fellow trustees the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, 5,447 Ordinary Shares, which represents less than 0.1% of the Outstanding Shares. The exercise of such power requires the unanimous approval of all trustees of The BRO Trust. Mr. Oppenheimer is not a beneficiary of The BRO Trust, which is a charitable trust.

Except as disclosed in this Item 5(a), none of the Reporting Persons or the Holding Companies nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of the persons listed on Exhibit A to this Statement beneficially owns any Ordinary Shares or has the right to acquire any Ordinary Shares.

(b) All decisions with respect to the voting and/or disposition of the Ordinary Shares owned by the Reporting Persons are currently made by the Board of Directors of Anglo American. Accordingly, Anglo American has the power to direct the voting and/or disposition of the Ordinary Shares held by Anglo SA Capital, and Anglo SA

-6-


Capital has the power to vote and/or dispose of the Ordinary Shares (which power is exercised at the direction of Anglo American). The responses of the Reporting Persons to (i) Rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages of this Statement and (ii) Item 5(a) hereof are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

On March 23, 2006 Anglo SA Capital entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Issuer to facilitate the sale to the public of some or all of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer held by Anglo SA Capital as well as any securities into or for which the Ordinary Shares have been converted and any security issued with respect thereto upon any share dividend, split or similar event. The Registration Rights Agreement requires the Issuer to use all reasonable efforts to file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, no later than March 27, 2006, a shelf registration statement on Form F-3, providing for one or more offerings to be made on a delayed basis of such number of Ordinary Shares of the Issuer as Anglo SA Capital may


determine in its sole discretion; and file, upon demand by Anglo SA Capital, additional non-continuous registration statements on Form F-3 providing for offerings to be made on a non-delayed basis of the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer. The foregoing discussion of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Registration Rights Agreement incorporated by reference in Exhibit C hereto.

On April 10, 2006 Issuer and Anglo SA Capital entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman, Sachs & Co. and UBS Limited as co-representatives of the several Underwriters named in Schedule I thereto. Under the Underwriting Agreement (i) Issuer agreed to issue and sell to purchasers procured by the Underwriters, or, failing that, to the Underwriters, an aggregate of 9,970,732 Ordinary Shares, and (ii) Anglo SA Capital agreed to sell to purchasers procured by the Underwriters or, failing that, to the Underwriters, an aggregate of 16,328,313 Ordinary Shares and, at the election of the Underwriters, up to 3,944,857 additional Ordinary Shares, subject, in each of cases (i) and (ii), to customary closing conditions. The Underwriters were permitted to elect to direct delivery of the shares, or take delivery of the shares themselves, in the form of Ordinary Shares or in the form of ADSs. Anglo SA Capital also agreed to a lock-up provision therein whereby, subject to certain exceptions, it was restricted from offering or selling Ordinary Shares for a period of 270 days after the date of the prospectus filed in connection with the offering. The foregoing discussion of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit D.

On October 1, 2007 Issuer and Anglo SA Capital entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Goldman Sachs International and UBS Limited as co-representatives of the Underwriters. Under the Underwriting Agreement Anglo SA Capital agreed to sell to purchasers procured by the Underwriters, or, failing that, to the Underwriters, an aggregate of 67,100,000 Ordinary Shares, subject to customary closing conditions. The Underwriters were permitted to elect to direct delivery of the shares, or take delivery of the shares themselves, in the form of Ordinary Shares or in the form of ADSs.
