We believe in developing mining for a better future. As custodians of natural resources, we have a responsibility not only to manage these resources efficiently and responsibly, but also to harness copper’s potential to contribute to the development of a greener and more sustainable world.
What we need:
Long-term relationships
Our people
- We have over 29,000 employees, permanent contractors and temporary contractors related to projects. Constructive relationships, anchored in mutual respect and transparency, are crucial for a good working environment and talent retention, as well as for productivity and efficiency
Communities
- The wellbeing of our neighbours is directly related to the sustainable development and success of our business.
Suppliers
- We work with over 4,000 suppliers, who provide a broad range of products and services, from large mining equipment to catering and transport. They are vital to our ability to operate continuously, safely and efficiently.
Customers
- Most sales are made under long-term framework agreements or annual contracts, with sales volumes agreed for the following year.
Financial Investors
- We maintain fluent and transparent dialogue with our shareholders and bondholders to ensure that they are treated fairly and receive all relevant information.
Governments and regulators
- We work alongside mining associations and other industry-related bodies to engage with governments on public policy, laws, regulations and procedures that may affect our business.
Resources
World-class assets
- We have a portfolio of large, predominantly high-quality, low cost assets in our two main mining districts. We are investing in technology to improve productivity and drive sustainable growth across our operations.
Inputs
- Our mining operations depend on a range of key inputs, such as energy, water, labour, sulphuric acid and fuel.
Financial resources
- We have a strong balance sheet, an undrawn credit facility and access to other sources of capital.
