Notes to editors:
Lafarge Tarmac was formed in January 2013 following the merger of Anglo American and Lafarge's cement, aggregates, ready-mixed concrete, asphalt and asphalt surfacing and maintenance services, and waste services businesses in the United Kingdom. As at 30 June 2014, Anglo American’s 50% reported interest in Lafarge Tarmac’s gross assets (before deduction of gross liabilities) was £1,382 million, including goodwill, on an unaudited basis. For the period ending 31 December 2013, prior to any Anglo American Group adjustments, the loss before tax attributable to 50% of Lafarge Tarmac was £33 million.
Anglo American is one of the world’s largest mining companies, is headquartered in the UK and listed on the London and Johannesburg stock exchanges.
