Gold miner AngloGold Ashanti (ANGJ.J) has agreed a new three-year salary deal with unionised workers in Ghana which it hopes will end strikes at its mines in the West African country, it said on Tuesday.
The firm will raise salaries by 12 percent in 2009 and 10 percent in both 2010 and 2011, said John Owusu, General Manager for Corporate Affairs.
Johnannesburg-listed AngloGold is the world's third largest and Africa's top gold producer.
