Our approach

Environmentalist at the rehab area of Pit D at Lake Lindsay mine in Queensland AustraliaEnvironmentalist at the rehab area of Pit D at Lake Lindsay mine in Queensland

We aim to be the leading global mining company – the investment, the partner and the employer of choice – through the operational excellence of world-class assets in the most attractive commodities and a resolute commitment to the highest standards of safe and sustainable mining.

When it comes to our people, we recognise that they are as vital to our success as our mining assets. We are primarily concerned with the safety and wellbeing of our workforce. We believe that all injuries are avoidable and that every worker has the right to return home unharmed.

Operating our businesses in a socially and environmentally responsible way, and earning and deserving trust, are fundamental to our licence to operate and to delivering long-term value to our investors.

The future of mining is not just about providing the growing volumes of commodities that the world needs. It’s about doing this in a cleaner more energy efficient and environmentally responsible way. It’s also about doing this in a way that benefits the communities in which we operate so they have a sustainable future once the mine gate is finally closed.
