 showing the Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) outcomes for 3 of our Canadian sites and all of our Pilbara iron ore sites. We have continued to improve our reporting to meet additional disclosure requirements, including the ICMM Social and Economic Reporting Framework (SERF). In 2024, we have disclosed our performance against the SERF indicators in the ICMM SERF tab. The majority of our ESG reporting is incorporated into this Form 20-F and supplemented by our 2024 Sustainability Fact Book , containing current and historical data on topics including health, safety, environment, climate, communities, human rights, responsible sourcing, ICMM PEs and transparency. Governance and assurance The Sustainability Committee oversees strategies to manage social and environmental impacts, risks and opportunities, including management processes and standards. The Sustainability Committee reviews the effectiveness of management policies and procedures relating to safety, health, employment practices (apart from remuneration, which is the responsibility of the People & Remuneration Committee), relationships with neighbouring communities, environment, tailings, security and human rights, land access, political involvement and sustainable development. Given its strategic significance, climate change is overseen directly by the Board.
