Certain statements, beliefs and opinions contained in this presentation, particularly those regarding the possible or assumed future financial or other performance of Xstrata, industry growth or other trend projections are or may be forward looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes”, “estimates”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “goal”, “target”, “aim”, “may”, “will”, “would”, “could” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology.

This presentation contains references to “cost curves”. A cost curve is a graphic representation in which the total production volume of a given commodity across the relevant industry is arranged on the basis of average unit costs of production from lowest to highest to permit comparisons of the relative cost positions of particular production sites, individual producers or groups of producers across the world or within a given country or region. Generally, a producer’s position on a cost curve is described in terms of the particular percentile or quartile in which the production of a given plant or producer or group of producers appears. To construct cost curves, industry analysts compile information from a variety of sources, including reports made available by producers, site visits, personal contacts and trade publications. Although producers may participate to some extent in the process through which cost curves are constructed, they are typically unwilling to validate cost analyses directly because of commercial sensitivities. Inevitably, assumptions must be made by the analyst with respect to data that such analyst is unable to obtain and judgment must be brought to bear in the case of virtually all data, however obtained. Moreover, all cost curves embody a number of significant assumptions with respect to exchange rates and other variables. In summary, the manner in which cost curves are constructed means that they have a number of significant inherent limitations. Notwithstanding their shortcomings, independently produced cost curves are widely used in the industries in which Xstrata operate. No statement in this presentation is intended as a profit forecast or a profit estimate and no statement in this presentation should be interpreted to mean that earnings per Xstrata share for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings per Xstrata share.

Mining industry faces increasing complexity, competition and costs Emerging Challenges

Examples and Potential Impact

Increasing complexity of public policy

• Windfall taxes, royalties, carried interest, allocation of licences, mining licence reviews, etc. Potential for unintended, damaging consequences and loss of relative competitiveness.

Constrained inputs (especially for project development)

• Key engineering and project management skills, fabrication capacity, contractors, etc. – project delays and increased costs

Higher input costs

• Energy, fuel, steel, explosives, labour and contractors, strong producer currencies – higher long-term costs

Water shortage

• Potential competition with communities for water in arid areas, cost of providing alternatives (e.g. desalination)

Social licence to operate

• Rising community expectations, NGO activity - delayed mining expansion, cost of compliance, focus on community involvement

Growing legislation/regulation

• Increased legislation across the board – UK Bribery Act, transparency initiatives, anti-trust, etc., growing organisation complexity and cost of compliance

Environmental/Climate Change regulation impacts

• Growing complexity, legislation by country rather than global framework, increased costs, impact on competitiveness

Competition for access to new resources

• New ‘strategic’ and commercial acquirers - higher price for control, scarce resources

17

Climate change principles • Industry has a valid and important role to play in: • • •

Limiting greenhouse gas emissions Investing in low emissions baseload technology Participating as a valid and important interlocutor in policy development

• A consensus is emerging on sound principles for climate change policy: •

Clear, predictable and long-term price on greenhouse gas emissions



Single objective to reduce emissions with revenues raised applied to initiatives to support the transition to a low-carbon economy



Protection of trade-exposed industries; avoid ‘carbon leakage’



Gradual, predictable legislation introduced at an appropriate level

18

Conclusion • A secular shift in demand for commodities is underway • Mining industry has consolidated giving rise to global, diversified miners with the ability to allocate capital across several jurisdictions • Significant challenges remain for the industry, including increasingly complex legislation • Industry has a legitimate and important role to play in policy development
