    AngloGold Ashanti (AU.N), is boosting payouts to investors, it said on Wednesday, after its profit surged to $954 million last year from a loss of $46 million in the prior year, buoyed by the precious metal’s rally to record highs.

    Shares in the company however fell as much as 7.4% in early trading in New York.

    CEO Alberto Calderon said the gold price rally had given AngloGold the strongest balance sheet position in more than a decade, and it is “able to pass on those benefits to shareholders in a more generous dividend policy”.

    In 1979, a couple using a metal detector in the Kalgoorlie Goldfields of Western Australia located a massive gold nugget. Known today as the “Golden Beauty,” the nugget weighs in at nearly 10 pounds.

    It is currently on the auction block. According to Heritage Auctions, the opening bid was $400,000.

    At the current spot price, the gold is worth around $481,800.

    “Gold always has been enormously popular, in part because of its pure value and beauty, but also because it is exceedingly rare,” Heritage Auctions vice president of nature and science Craig Kissick said.

    Zinc, the biggest loser in the LME complex, is currently trading 4.8% lower than at the start of the year.

    Meanwhile, tin prices have increased by 13.5% in the first few weeks of the year, making it the biggest winner.

    Copper refining grew as expected at 4.2%, but mine production surprised at 2.3%, 0.5% higher than the ICSG September forecast.

    The supply of refined copper is under threat due to mine production, which has put downward pressure on processing fees in copper smelters, according to Commerzbank.

    The lead market experienced a minor oversupply due to a substantial increase in mine production.

    This increase, just under 2%, was fueled by significantly higher supply in the US, Australia, Peru, and Mexico.

    Silver breaks above $33.45

    After briefly dipping to $32.66 last week, silver has regained the $33.45 pivot, which now serves as near-term support. The level is seen as a trigger for momentum trades, and a sustained move above it could drive a retest of the recent high at $34.24. A breakout above that zone would open the path toward resistance between $34.87 and $35.40. Conversely, a failure to hold $33.45 could expose the downside to the $32.53–$31.81 retracement range.

    The $1.4 billion bid made by the Chinese defence and industrial giant in June stalled after Congo state miner Gecamines submitted its own unsolicited bid for the Chemaf assets, deepening a standoff that has been complicated by U.S. officials lobbying against China’s grip on the mineral-rich central African Copperbelt.

    Norinco has now proposed that the Democratic Republic of the Congo increase its interest in Chemaf’s Mutoshi and Etoile mines to as much as 15% from 5% currently – at no additional cost – subject to negotiations, said the sources, who asked to remain anonymous.
