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

encouraged by the narrowing gap between AngloGold's
offer and a richer bid from U.S. rival Newmont Mining Corp.
