NEW REPORT RELEASED | FEB 2026
Anglo American’s Accountability Deficit documents the devastating 100-year legacy of extraction by South Africa’s largest mining company, across Southern Africa, Latin America and the Global South.
Produced collaboratively by ACTSA, the Tlou Mogale Foundation, Mining Affected Communities United in Action (MACUA), Justice for Miners, WAMUA, and allied organisations, the report brings together community evidence, legal analysis, and lived experience that corporate disclosures systematically erase.
From silicosis and TB among mineworkers, to Kabwe’s toxic inheritance, to unrehabilitated mines and capital flight, the report exposes a clear pattern:
profit without repair, accountability deferred, and exit without restitution.
As Anglo accelerates its withdrawal from South Africa, this publication asks the question government and investors are avoiding:
Who pays when mining capital leaves, and who decides that the debt is settled?
This report will be taken up and debated at the MAC Summit, where affected communities move the conversation from documentation to consequence:
🕘 09h45–10h45 | Plenary 2
Corporate Accountability: Anglo Exit
Corporate exit, law, and the energy transition
With:
• Duma Gqubule (Economist & Researcher)
• Rachel Palma Randle (ACTSA)
• Palisa Fiona Makhaphela (Tlou Mogale Foundation)
• Namo Chuma (Environment Africa Zambia)
• Justice for Miners
The MAC Summit is not an invited space. It is where communities set the agenda and insist:
There can be no exit without accountability.
