JOHANNESBURG, Jan. 3 -- If AngloGold Ltd. is
pipped at the post by Newmont Mining Corp in
its bid for control of Australia's Normandy
Mining Co., it will face a dwindling range of
growth strategies. U.S.-based-Newmont has
raised its bid for Normandy to A$1.93 a share
-- valuing the company at A$4.3 billion --
and eclipsing AngloGold's A$4.1 billion offer
AngloGold says it''s better to lose Normandy than to overpay

Australia's Normandy Mining by Newmont Mining after a
four-month bidding war will not be a one-way ticket
higher for gold prices, but should be beneficial for
the downsizing gold industry over the long haul,
experts said.
The takeover looked inevitable Thursday, raising the
specter that Newmont -- formerly North America's No. 1
Will gold rise follow squeeze in silver?

JOHANNESBURG, Jan 4 (Reuters) -- AngloGold Chairman
and CEO Bobby Godsell said on Friday his company's
offer for Australia's Normandy Mining was final and it was
now up to Normandy's shareholders to decide.
However, Godsell told Reuters in an interview that he was
encouraged by the narrowing gap between AngloGold's
offer and a richer bid from U.S. rival Newmont Mining Corp.

JOHANNESBURG/SYDNEY, Jan 3 (Reuters) -- Newmont Mining
looked poised to win a takeover battle for Australia's

U.S.-based Newmont had earlier boosted the cash element
of its offer by 10 Australian cents per share, with the Normandy
