Anglo American CEO Mark Cutifani has revealed plans to offload or close 35 of its mines worldwide and significantly reduce its global workforce. At least four of the group’s Australian mines are expected to be affected by the restructuring, although Anglo American is likely to retain the majority of its metallurgical coal mines in Australia. Anglo American will also abandon its progressive dividend policy, and shareholders will not receive a dividend payment in 2015 and 2016.
