We progressed decarbonisation activities designed to address our largest exposures
•
•
Completed a PFS for the mud-washing project at Worsley Alumina targeting a 295kt (or ~7%) (a) reduction in
operational GHG emissions, while continuing to evaluate options to convert the refinery's energy source
Relined our first pots utilising the AP3XLE energy efficiency technology at Hillside Aluminium, and progressed
study work for options to secure low-carbon electricity
Awarded a A$15M grant from the New South Wales government for a commercial pilot Ventilation Air Methane
abatement facility at Illawarra Metallurgical Coal, in collaboration with the CSIRO
We took significant steps to increase our exposure to metals critical for a low-carbon future
Completed the acquisition of a 45% interest in the Sierra Gorda copper mine
•
Expanded our low-carbon aluminium capacity by >100%
Completed the zinc-lead-silver Taylor Deposit PFS using low-carbon design principles and advanced options
for our battery-grade manganese Clark Deposit
Continued our investment in exploration with more than 25 partnerships and projects targeting base metals
We established new partnerships for collective action on climate change
Progressed initiatives targeting supply chain emissions, signing a sustainability-linked contract with Klaveness
for caustic soda shipping to Worsley Alumina
Received provisional certification under the Aluminium Stewardship Initiative at Mozal Aluminium
Refinanced our US$1.4B revolving credit facility as a sustainability-linked loan
Our Climate Change Action Plan will be subject to a non-binding advisory vote at our 2022 Annual General Meeting
Compared to Worsley Alumina's operational GHG emissions of ~3.75Mt in FY21.
