In the second quarter, the company produced 804,000 ounces of gold, up 21% year over year. The upside was driven by a second full-quarter contribution from the Sukari mine, which added 129,000 ounces to the total production. The rally was also driven by upbeat performances from Obuasi, Geita, Cerro Vanguardia, Cuiabá and Siguiri.Obuasi delivered a strong year-over-year increase of 31%, driven by grade improvement and steady production ramp-up. Siguiri delivered a solid 6% year-over-year jump, producing 80,000 ounces in the second quarter, driven by optimized plant utilization and favorable material characteristics.Geita saw a 20% rise in production on higher grades. Production at Cerro Vanguardia grew 7% year over year on improved plant performance and higher grades. This momentum is expected to have continued in the third quarter and led to year-over-year higher production numbers.In the July-September 2025 period, gold prices averaged around $3,500 per ounce, up 41% year over year. Starting at $3,300, gold surged to a high of $3,858.41 at the quarter’s end. Uncertainty regarding U.S trade and tariff policies, and solid demand from central banks boosted gold prices. We expect this increase in gold prices to get reflected in AUs top-line results in the third quarter.AU Stock’s Price PerformanceShares of the company have skyrocketed 155.6% in the past year compared with the industry’s 79.5% surge.  Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Quick Look at AngloGold Ashanti Peers’ Q3 PerformancesNewmont Corporation NEM reported third-quarter 2025 adjusted earnings of $1.71 per share, up from 81 cents in the prior-year quarter.
