We believe in supporting the long-term success of the communities where we operate, and our Rincón Lithium Project in Argentina is no exception. Reina, owner of Cumbres Andinas laundry, is an example of this commitment. “Since winning the laundry contract a year and a half ago, our business has steadily grown,” Reina says. “This opportunity has helped me provide a secure future for my children.” We’re proud to support Reina and Laundry on the Summit, and many other local businesses like hers. As the Rincón Lithium project transitions from exploration to operation, we're committed to growing together, building a sustainable future for the region. #Rincón #Lithium #Communities

We're finding better ways to provide the materials the world needs. Iron ore for steel. Low carbon aluminium for electric cars and smartphones. Copper for wind turbines, electric cars and the pipes that bring water to our home. Borates that help crops grow and titanium for paint.

We’re on an on-going journey to building a safe, respectful and inclusive workplace for everyone, everywhere, everyday. It's been 2 years since we released the Everyday Respect Report and began implementing the 26 recommendations. One of those recommendations was to identify and remedy any facilities at our sites found to be less than satisfactory; like assessing lighting and security. Check out the 📽️ 👇 to see some of the improvements we've made to one of our villages in the Pilbara, Western Australia. #EverydayRespect #Safety

The strength of our relationships with the communities where we operate is fundamental to our business. Without the support from host communities we can't operate successfully. In 2023: 📈 We sourced 16.8% of contestable spend from local suppliers, a 2.3% increase from 2022. 🔍 We independently assessed 25 assets against the cultural heritage co-management maturity framework. 🧑🏫 Our human rights team delivered 35 tailored training sessions, targeting 11 assets and 12 functional teams globally.

"I support Rio's vision by utilising remote sensing and space sector-based driven technologies." 🌘 We know there's more to the moon than meets the unaided eye thanks to advanced remote-sensing technology, developed by space agencies for lunar regolith (soil) exploration. 🛰️ Iuma, our Principal Adviser on the Discovery team, is leading the charge to adapt space-based sensing technologies developed for the moon and Mars, for terrestrial mining. 🌏 By applying lunar exploration insights to Earth, luma's work is helping us find stellar ways to harness our planet's resources more holistically and responsibly. #FindingBetterWays

Between Rio Tinto, Qantas and BHP, we’ve committed A$80m to the Silva Carbon Origination Fund. The fund will give us access to large-scale, high-integrity carbon credits from land reforestation projects integrated with sustainable agriculture. We’re absolutely committed to decarbonising our operations, but many of the technologies we need will take time to develop and implement. Meanwhile, our investment in the Silva Carbon Origination Fund helps us meet our compliance obligations with high-integrity carbon credits. “We’re thrilled to have Rio Tinto, Qantas and BHP as foundation investors in the Silva Carbon Origination Fund,” Raphael Wood, Silva Capital Co-Managing Director, says. “Their partnership and commitment highlight the importance of high-integrity carbon credits in the transition to a low-carbon economy. “This fund represents not only an investment in carbon abatement but a significant milestone in Australia’s carbon market, that will, importantly, support the long-term success of our farming communities and nature repair."
