Indian mining billionaire Anil Agarwal is encouraging Anglo American – in which he now holds more than 21% – to accentuate its link with South Africa, where the Vedanta Resources company he founded and chairs is successfully turning to highly positive account the zinc assets that Anglo walked away from eight years ago. Anglo’s South Africa connection receives high praise from Agarwal, who is pleased with the decision of the London-listed, South Africa-rooted company to retain South African assets previously earmarked for potential disposal.
