social responsibility Xstrata's operations are located in diverse regions around the world, and each location has its own stakeholder values, constraints and opportunities. As members of these communities, we respect those values, abide by the constraints, respect the rights of indigenous people and seek to derive mutual benefits from the opportunities that exist. When we leave, it is our aim to leave behind a more self-reliant community through our investment in people and the support of sustainable projects. We aim to work with employees, local communities, NGOs and other stakeholders in genuine partnerships that are characterised by integrity, transparency, cooperation and mutual benefit. All of our operations maintain a detailed closure plan, which addresses the social, environmental and economic impacts of closure.
