Sustainability Report 2021

At a Glance Our financial contributions provide our stakeholders with the confidence that we are sharing value through taxes, royalties and employment and procurement opportunities, in addition to building communities by investing in education and training. In FY21, IGO successfully completed its strategic transformation into a business 100% focused on clean energy metals. The lithium joint venture agreement with Tianqi Lithium Corporation was a watershed moment for IGO which, combined with the divestment of our 30% stake in Tropicana, has resulted in IGO being uniquely positioned with world-class upstream and downstream assets exposed to nickel, copper, cobalt and lithium. It is this suite of metals which IGO believes will benefit most from the rapid acceleration of demand for electric vehicles, stationary storage and renewable energy. Our commitment to sustainable development extends through our value chain — from exploration to the way we operate to extract and process the metals we mine, and to the way our products are used by our customers to deliver a green energy future. Our supply chain practices are becoming increasingly important to our stakeholders, with some seeking more transparency about the products we supply to market and the ethical ways they have been produced. IGO’s Modern Slavery statement and Human Rights policy is available on our website, with more information on pages 88 and 89. We are also committed to maximising our business value through the adoption of innovative thinking and collaboration with others. We will continue to invest in organisational capability and technology to optimise the implementation of our strategy, and our commitment to being a sustainable business. group revenue A$915M 3% vs FY20 total spend on Aboriginal owned or managed businesses A$6.2M 29% vs FY20 A$39.1M tax, state royalties and other government payments 81% of IGO suppliers of goods and service are located locally within our host communities or within Western Australia A$62.4M payments in salaries and wages IGO SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021— 91
