December 2009 Spatial Dimension is pleased to
announce that AngloGold Ashanti recently selected
FlexiCadastre as their enterprise mineral rights and
contracts management solution. The implementation of
the solution will entail a phased approach across
the company’s assets, with the initial focus being
on African Assets. 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 non-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.”
