Summary Lomas Bayas copper mine, Chile
Summary • The right commodities for the future • The commodities that fuel economic growth are changing as key emerging markets mature – The transition from early to mid and late cycle commodities benefits our core assets (copper, cobalt, nickel, zinc, thermal coal) • Government policies and transformational shifts in technology have accelerated the economic breakeven point for electric vehicles and energy storage systems • The electric vehicle revolution is underway and its impact is likely to be felt faster than expected – potentially creating material new sources of demand for enabling underlying commodities (copper, nickel, cobalt, lithium and manganese) • Investment in new frontiers will be necessary to ensure supply is up to the challenge • Sustaining copper mine supply is increasingly challenging – mined grades continue to fall, sector reinvestment has collapsed, exploration success has been limited and the future pipeline of projects is at pre-supercycle lows • Higher commodity prices and a willingness to access resources in new geographies will be required to ensure supply can feed demand over the longer run • Well positioned for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead • Our highly cash generative defensive business model, including marketing, adapts quickly to changing conditions • Relentless focus on maximising value creation through balancing business reinvestment/growth and shareholder returns • Backed by a world-class management team, entrepreneurial culture and track record of value creation 4
