Our materials are essential for the low-carbon transition. Aluminium for lightweight cars. Copper to help things work more efficiently – from renewables to the power in your home. Iron ore for the steel in our electricity infrastructure. Lithium for electric vehicles and battery storage. And many of the materials we produce are essential for the things in everyday life too: Borates that help crops grow, titanium for paint – and diamonds that celebrate the best things in life. 

We work in 35 countries – in mines, smelters and refineries, as well as in sales offices, data centres, research and development labs and with artificial intelligence. We aim to deliver superior returns to our shareholders throughout the cycle by meeting our stakeholders’ needs, allocating capital with discipline, and investing in high-quality projects and in industries with solid, long-term fundamentals.
