Sustainability Report 2021

Climate change & decarbonisation strategy Contributing to a low-carbon future is a key part of our purpose and strategy, and our desire to drive towards carbon neutrality outlines our commitment to decarbonisation and electrification. At IGO, we recognise the important role that we will play in decarbonisation through the metals we supply, which are critical to clean energy storage, and our role in the renewable energy revolution. Our response to climate-related risks and opportunities, as well as our actions to build resilience within our business, are set out in the Climate Change section of this report. We are aligned to the TCFD recommendations, and track and disclose our greenhouse gas emissions. We incentivise decarbonisation, and work towards better understanding our supply chain emissions and risk. Internal, External Page 52 Ethics, integrity & governance Our governance approach, ethical framework and practices adhere to the highest levels of honesty, integrity, compliance and transparency. These are vital to maintaining the trust and confidence of stakeholders and the Australian public. Our success depends on our ability to maintain our social licence to operate through listening to our stakeholders and communities, building and maintaining strong relationships, and engaging ethically, fairly and honestly. Internal, External Page 82 Culture, diversity & our people Our culture and our people are our greatest assets. Our diverse and inclusive culture, with a strong sense of purpose, is something we are proud of at IGO. We are deliberate in the creation of our culture. Our people are bold, passionate, fearless and fun – a smarter, kinder, more innovative team. Internal Page 30 Capital allocation & growth Our shareholders expect us to allocate capital, deliver on our business strategy and seek the discovery of new resources. An important aspect is our ability to innovate and apply different technologies. This creates growth opportunities and enables us to deliver direct and indirect economic value to our stakeholders. Internal, External Pages 12 & 90 Environmental & land management Exploration and mining activities inherently disturb the natural environment and potentially impact the livelihoods of landholders, local communities and Traditional Owners. Core to maintaining our social licence to operate is applying best practices to prevent, minimise and rectify impacts. We have an ongoing commitment to making a real but proportionate contribution to addressing environmental challenges such as climate change, biodiversity loss, deforestation, water and air pollution, soil degradation or loss, and waste management. Internal, External Page 72 Financial contributions Our shareholders expect that IGO will deliver on our publicly stated operational and financial guidance in a safe and sustainable manner. Internal, External Page 90 Community & regional development It is important that we deliver shared value and ensure that our contributions make a positive impact on the long-term vibrancy and sustainability of our host communities, landholders, and the Traditional Owners of the land on which we operate. We endeavour to provide local and indigenous employment pathways, training opportunities and business partnerships, to support personal empowerment and participate in the local economy. Our host communities have been significantly impacted by COVID-19 this year and we are committed to supporting their recovery and long-term sustainability.
