AngloGold Ashanti Selects FlexiCadastre


Speaking about this latest success, Mr Bill Feast, CEO of Spatial Dimension said, "It was evident by the time AngloGold Ashanti approached Spatial Dimension for a proposal, that they had done an extensive review of their available options, as well as a detailed cost and risk assessment. That they selected FlexiCadastre is again proof that major mineral resource companies around the world are turning to FlexiCadastre in order to provide consistency and oversight to land and contract management processes across their global operations. I am very excited about welcoming AngloGold Ashanti into our extensive and growing user base."

Mr Peter de Montille, AngloGold Ashanti's Project Manager for the implementation said, "We look forward to working with Spatial Dimension in rolling out FlexiCadastre through our enterprise.  Mineral tenure loss and con-compliance on contractual agreements are significant risks to any business.  AngloGold Ashanti takes a zero tolerance approach and FlexiCadastre will be an important management tool in this critical risk management area for the business."
