Anglo American Platinum (OTCMKTS:ANGPY) is the world’s largest primary producer of platinum group metals (PGMs), supplying platinum, palladium, rhodium and related by-products for automotive, industrial and jewelry markets. As a subsidiary of the global mining group Anglo American, the company focuses on the full value chain from underground mining through smelting, refining and recycling. Its portfolio includes mechanized, deep-level and open-pit mines, supported by state-of-the-art processing facilities.
The company’s core operations are concentrated in South Africa’s Bushveld Complex, one of the richest PGM deposits globally, with additional mining interests in Zimbabwe. Key mines such as Mogalakwena, Amandelbult and the Kroondal cluster are complemented by smelters and refineries in Rustenburg and Brits. These integrated assets enable Anglo American Platinum to maintain control over product quality and cost management while meeting stringent environmental and safety standards.
Anglo American Platinum serves a diverse customer base, including automotive manufacturers that rely on PGMs for catalytic converters, industrial clients using catalysts for chemical processing, and the jewelry sector. The company also pursues recycling initiatives to recover PGMs from end-of-life materials, reinforcing its commitment to circular economy principles and reducing the carbon footprint associated with primary production.
Established in 1995 as a spin-off from Anglo American’s PGM portfolio, the company has since evolved under a leadership team focused on innovation, sustainability and stakeholder engagement. Chief Executive Officer Natascha Viljoen oversees ongoing investments in technology and operational efficiency, positioning Anglo American Platinum to support the global energy transition and long-term demand for critical metals.
