FCX connects the future by providing metals that are critical for developing and maintaining
healthy, growing societies. As a leading international mining company, FCX understands the
importance of operating in a safe and socially responsible manner. e earth’s population will
continue to grow along with the global standard of living and FCX expects the demand for its
metals to similarly increase. is will challenge our ability to reduce or mitigate certain impacts,
such as greenhouse gas emissions and water consumption, as production expands.
FCX evaluates opportunities to minimize environmental impacts and to be a catalyst for
sustainability in communities where it operates by joining stakeholders to seek solutions to
complex issues. Guiding FCX in meeting this challenge is the International Council on Mining
and Metals Sustainable Development Framework, including its 10 Sustainable Development
Principles and various position statements that FCX is committed to as a member. FCX
has established and reports against its progress on company-wide sustainable development
performance targets that address issues identied by internal and external stakeholders.
FCX reports its sustainability performance according to the Global Reporting Initiative and
FCX’s 2011 Working Toward Sustainable Development report will be available on FCX’s
website at www.fcx.com upon completion of third-party assurance.
