Anglo American Plc, which is shrinking its business by more than half to weather the rout in commodity prices, may sell its $1 billion niobium and phosphate business in Brazil in as little as two months.

“We have got bids coming in as we speak,” Chief Executive Officer Mark Cutifani said in a Bloomberg Television interview on Tuesday. “In the next two weeks, we will actually pin those down in terms of a short list of those we’d like to deal with. Over the next two to three months, I’d expect to be able to resolve something there.”
