I was killing things in an anomaly and found a bunch of ores that I haven't seen before, so after I killed everything, I got my Venture and went back to it, but everything had disappeared.
The next time I found it, I stuck around for a while (longer than it took me to get the Venture before) and it didn't disappear, but when I left to get my Venture, it was gone when I got back.
The enemies there aren't too difficult, but they aren't really easy, either, so the next time I see it, I might try taking my Venture with some attack drones, so I can mine the asteroids, but if they don't last very long, I don't want to risk my Venture if I'm only going to get to mine for 5 minutes before I have to go to another place. |

Update: I stayed in an anomaly for about 30 minutes after clearing it and it was still up. I eventually warped away to do something else, so I feel it safe to say that they last at least 30 minutes after the last NPC is killed, as long as you don't leave.
If the anomaly is one that is permanently in that system on the overview, then it never actually despawns that I know of, just more NPC's spawn eventually.
If the anomaly was one that your scanner finds for you upon entering the system, or one you had to use probes to find, then it will stay there until you leave. If you go in right after daily downtime and never leave, it will stay there until the next downtime when the server resets.
If you want to mine the ores from an anom I would be a ninja about it.. Make sure you're able to take care of the rats that spawn and keep a close eye on local and short range d-scan, all while making sure to keep another character parked in the anom cloaked so you can leave and come back as needed.
Something to note: If you're doing a combat anomaly and want to salvage the wrecks, you can bookmark one of the wrecks or your current location (through the people and places menu) and then leave the anom. The anomaly will despawn but the wrecks will not, so you can salvage and loot wrecks and not be as easy to find.
