Corporate Update

• Concentrate filtering resumed: As previously announced, on 31 January 2024, during regular cleaning activities prior to scheduled maintenance of the concentrate pipeline that connects the processing plant at Los Pelambres to the port at Los Vilos, concentrate material was detected that was stopping the normal transit of concentrate. This material was successfully cleared, and the filtering of concentrates at the port facilities resumed at the end of February. Mining and processing operations at Los Pelambres continued to operate unaffected throughout this process and concentrates were stockpiled at the processing plant in pre-existing stockpile locations. As a result, a portion of the Los Pelambres’ concentrate filtered production and sales from Q1 2024, estimated to be approximately 27,000 tonnes of payable copper, will be rescheduled into future quarters. Following receipt of the relevant permit last year, Los Pelambres has initiated construction of a new concentrate pipeline. Until completion of this pipeline, Los Pelambres will continue to operate the existing concentrate pipeline under enhanced safety operating conditions and revised maintenance protocols. The Company confirms that production guidance for 2024 remains unaffected.
• Buenaventura: In line with the Company’s previous release in December 2023, when it was announced that the Company had entered into transactions in the secondary market to acquire beneficial ownership of shares of Compañía de Minas Buenaventura S.A.A. (Buenaventura), the Company can confirm that it now holds 48.1 million shares of Buenaventura, representing the equivalent of approximately 19% of Buenaventura’s issued share capital. Following a meeting of Buenaventura’s shareholders in March 2024, the Company can confirm that Iván Arriagada and Andrónico Luksic L. have now joined Buenaventura’s Board of Directors.
