ABOUT XSTRATA PLC
Xstrata is a global diversified mining group, listed on the London and Swiss Stock Exchanges, with its headquarters in Zug, Switzerland. Xstrata’s businesses maintain a meaningful position in seven major international commodity markets: copper, coking coal, thermal coal, ferrochrome, nickel, vanadium and zinc, with additional exposures to platinum group metals, gold, cobalt, lead and silver, recycling facilities and a suite of global technology products, many of which are industry leaders. The Group's operations and projects span 18 countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Germany, New Caledonia, Norway, Papua New Guinea, Peru, the Philippines, South Africa, Spain, Tanzania, the USA and the UK. Xstrata employs approximately 56,000 people, including contractors.
ABOUT XSTRATA COPPER
Headquartered in Brisbane, Xstrata Copper is one of the commodity business units within the major global diversified mining group Xstrata plc. Its operations and projects span eight countries: Australia, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Canada, the USA, the Philippines and Papua New Guinea. Its operations are administered by five separate divisions, based close to the mining operations, namely the North Queensland, Minera Alumbrera, North Chile, Southern Peru and Canada divisions. It also has a recycling business (Xstrata Recycling) with plants in the United States and offices in Canada and Asia.
Xstrata Copper is the fourth largest global copper producer with annual attributable production capacity of over one million tonnes.
ABOUT XSTRATA ZINC
Headquartered in Madrid, Spain, Xstrata Zinc is one of the world’s largest producers of zinc and one of the commodity business units within the major global diversified mining group Xstrata plc. Xstrata’s zinc and lead operations and exploration projects are located in Australia, Canada, Germany, Peru, Spain and the United Kingdom.
Xstrata Zinc’s operations in Spain comprise the San Juan de Nieva zinc smelter and the Arnao zinc semis plant in Asturias, and the Hinojedo roasting plant in Cantabria.
In Australia, operations comprise the Mount Isa, George Fisher underground and Black Star open cut zinc lead mines, zinc lead concentrator, lead smelter and Bowen Coke Works in north Queensland; 75% of the Lady Loretta zinc lead deposit in north-west Queensland; the McArthur River open pit zinc lead mine, processing and port operations in the Northern Territory; and 50% of the Lennard Shelf underground zinc lead mine and processing operations in Western Australia.
In Canada, operations and exploration projects include the Brunswick zinc-lead mine and lead smelter in New Brunswick; 25% of the CEZ zinc smelter near Montreal; and the Perseverance zinc deposit in Quebec.
Xstrata Zinc also operates the Nordenham zinc smelter in northern Germany; the Northfleet lead refinery in the United Kingdom; and owns 33.75% of the Antamina mine in Peru.
Around half of all zinc currently consumed is used for galvanizing steel, which is an environmentally friendly method of protecting steel against corrosion. Zinc also finds application in the manufacture of die-cast alloys, brass and the production of zinc oxides and chemicals.

Xstrata Mount Isa Mines takes its environmental responsibility seriously and has implemented a number of environmental improvements, since Xstrata acquired the mine in 2003, to ensure our operations are environmentally sustainable and that our impact on the environment is minimised.

Chief Operating Officer Xstrata Copper North Queensland Steve de Kruijff said: “the safety of our employees and the community is our highest priority and we aim to continually improve our environmental performance”.

“Since Xstrata’s involvement began in 2003, we have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on over 80 environmental improvements which are enabling us to progress towards capturing 95% of our emissions,” he said

These improvements include:

• the installation of four converter hoods in the copper smelter in September 2007 to reduce the likelihood of fugitive emissions coming from this part of the smelting process
• purchasing an in-line stack monitor for real time measurement of sulphur dioxide emissions not captured and treated in the third party owned Acid Plant
• the installation of a new furnace cooling water system in the lead smelter to enable improved process control in the blast furnace, and
• the purchase of heavy duty industrial vacuum trucks and sweepers to collect dust within our operation.

“We have a comprehensive sulphur dioxide, dust and heavy metals monitoring network that measures emission levels in the community,” Mr de Kruijff said.

“Fifteen monitoring stations throughout the town measure air quality levels, 10 sulphur-dioxide real-time monitoring stations ensure smelters operate within accepted regulatory limits. We also have five high volume dust samplers.”

High levels of lead naturally occur in Mount Isa. Mineralised outcrops were identified in Mount Isa around 80 years ago as part of the early exploration program.

“There are high levels of lead in the dirt and rock on which Mount Isa is built,” Mr de Kruijff said.

“That is why the mine is here and it is why the town was built in this location.

“Xstrata Mount Isa Mines has for many years been playing an active role in partnership with local and State Government to manage the issue of living with naturally occurring lead.

“In particular, throughout last year, we met regularly with the Queensland Government and Mount Isa City Council to discuss and actively support the progress of Queensland Health’s Get Bled for Lead awareness campaign.”

The campaign encouraged Mount Isa residents to have their children’s blood tested for lead. Queensland Health expects to release its official screening program report in the coming weeks.

“Recently our activities and those of other key stakeholders in the local community have been formalised into the Living with Lead Alliance. As a member of this Alliance, we look forward to receiving Queensland Health’s recommendations regarding the ongoing monitoring and reporting of children’s lead levels,” Mr de Kruijff said.

“Xstrata Mount Isa Mines will continue to operate in an environmentally sustainable way and is working closely on this with the Queensland State Government and the Mount Isa City Council.”

Xstrata’s Mount Isa Mines today restated its commitment to the health of the residents of Mount Isa, including its employees and their families.

Chief Operating Officer Xstrata Copper North Queensland, Steve de Kruijff, said the company takes the issue of lead management in the community very seriously.

“We are working closely with key community stakeholders, especially the Mount Isa City Council and the Queensland State Government, to manage lead levels in Mount Isa.

“Naturally we are very concerned to hear about individual cases of high lead levels in local children, however it is not appropriate for us to comment on specific cases which are being managed through Queensland Health.

“We are also not aware of any legal action pertaining to individuals who have elevated blood lead levels.

“It is important for us to obtain the full results and analysis of the Queensland Health testing program of 400 children aged 1-4 years which concluded last December. Queensland Health expects this report to be released within the next six weeks.

“The full report will identify the priorities Queensland Health, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Mount Isa City Council, Xstrata Mount Isa Mines and other community stakeholders need to act on in order to sustainably manage lead levels in Mount Isa.

“The reality is that lead is literally part of the foundations of our community and we all have a responsibility to ensure we manage our exposure to this naturally occurring mineral in our homes, gardens, workplaces and environment.

“Xstrata is committed to environmental management and improving its environmental performance in Mount Isa. We have comprehensive community monitoring through 15 monitoring stations operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

“We’ve already substantially improved our environmental performance including reducing emissions from our Mount Isa operations since 2000. We are also conducting more detailed studies into air, land and water emissions through the University of Queensland’s Centre for Mined Land Rehabilitation (CMLR), by world renowned toxicologist Associate Professor, Barry Noller.

“The recent results reported by Xstrata’s Mount Isa Mines in the National Pollutant Inventory (NPI) database are only estimations of emissions generated on site, and they do not relate to exposure in the community.

“Information about our environmental performance is provided to our employees and the Mount Isa community regularly through our publications and community briefings.

“We have also recently formed the Living with Lead Alliance to promote living with lead in Mount Isa and to ensure community health is maintained. The members of the Alliance include myself, the State MP for Mount Isa, Betty Kiernan, Mayor of Mount Isa City Council, Cr. John Malony, and representatives from Queensland Health and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

“We’re doing this because our number one priority is to make sure our operations are environmentally sustainable and that Mount Isa continues to be a safe place to live,” he said.

Xstrata Nickel is pleased to announce that it has presented a cheque in the amount of Cdn$32.6 million to the Makivik Corporation, representing the local Inuit communities’ share of the profits generated in 2007 by the Raglan nickel mine operation, located in the Nunavik Territory of Northern Quebec.

This yearly profit-sharing is part of the Raglan Agreement, a comprehensive agreement signed on February 28, 1995 with Makivik and local Inuit communities. The agreement supports the harmonized relations and fostering of opportunities between Xstrata Nickel and local populations and their representatives in areas such as training, hiring of local businesses and environmental management.

Pita Aatami President of Makivik Corporation, stated: “This year’s profit-sharing will be again put to good use in developing economic and training opportunities, which will contribute to the well-being of Inuit communities.”

Ian Pearce, Chief Executive Officer of Xstrata Nickel, said “The Raglan Agreement addresses a variety of areas, including preferential hiring of qualified local Inuit personnel and businesses, environmental protection and mitigation, procurement and profit-sharing measures. To date Xstrata Nickel has delivered Cdn$58.6 million back to the community. We are proud of our strong relationship with the local communities and remain committed to fostering effective engagement with all stakeholders.”

Xstrata Nickel’s Raglan mining camp was constructed at a cost of Cdn$600 million and began production in 1997. In 2007, capital investments included Cdn$48 million to refurbish existing wharf facilities and Cdn$50 million to expand accommodation facilities. Exploration results have confirmed Zone 5-8 as the largest mineralized zone in Raglan’s history, adding an estimated 4.5 million tonnes of inferred resources in 2007.

Raglan consists of three underground and one open pit nickel mines and a concentrator. Approximately 620 employees and 250 contractors work at Raglan. The mine site is linked by all-weather roads to an airstrip at Donaldson and to ship-loading facilities at Deception Bay. The ore from the mine is crushed, ground and treated at the Raglan mill to produce a nickel-copper concentrate. Milling capacity is 3,600 tonnes per day, with 2008 nickel capacity at the concentrator estimated at 24,000 tonnes of nickel-in-concentrate.
