Copper, PGMs
Portfolio-wide
Deliver improved feed grade to plants
through early rejection of waste, resulting
in energy, water and cost savings
Innovative flotation process allows
material to be ground to a larger particle
size, rejecting coarse gangue and
allowing water to release from coarser ore
particles, improving energy efficiencies
and water savings
Engineering of geotechnically stable
tailings facilities that dry out in weeks,
facilitating up to 85% water recovery
Developing the world's largest hydrogen
powered mining truck and providing
critical supporting infrastructure such as
refuelling, recharging, and facilitation of
hydrogen production to decarbonise high
power transport, using renewable energy

Progress
Mogalakwena North Concentrator (PGMs) (~70% of complex feed) and Los
Bronces (Copper) Confluencia Plant (~65% of complex feed) units operational
with workplans under way to support business as usual
Barro Alto (Nickel) in-pit unit will recommence in H1 2023, after the upgrade is
completed, resulting in improved future sorting performance. Additional in-pit
unit under technical evaluation
Planning for trials at Kolomela (Iron Ore) under way
El Soldado (Copper) CPR unit in operation
Constructing full scale system at Mogalakwena North Concentrator (PGMs) -
slurry commissioning commenced in Dec 2022
CPR approved at Quellaveco (Copper) to treat flotation tails, improving
recoveries by ~3% over the LOM. Commissioning expected in late 2023
Feasibility work continues at Los Bronces (Copper) & Minas-Rio (Iron Ore).
Options being investigated at Collahuasi (Copper)
El Soldado (Copper) demonstration unit commissioned. The trial is still on-going,
with encouraging results, expected to continue to Q4 2023
Assessing application to tailings expansion at Mogalakwena (PGMs) with
benefits from water quality and quantity improvements. Brownfield trial starting
in Q1 2023, after learnings from El Soldado trial
ZEHS hydrogen-powered mine haul truck at Mogalakwena (PGMs) is continuing
operational testing - it has accessed the deepest parts of the mine, hauling 300t
loads of ore and waste materials
In January 2023, completed the transaction to combine First Mode and Anglo
American's nuGenTM ZEHS, to accelerate the transition of mining and other
heavy industries towards zero emissions
Supporting decarbonisation of global fleet of ~400 ultra-class mine haul trucks
1. Also includes capex on Regional Renewable Energy Ecosystem in South Africa (RREE), which includes the Group's proportionate share of capex incurred by Envusa Energy.
