  • OPENING STATEMENT FULL VERSION 1. Introduction Thank You
    OPENING STATEMENT FULL VERSION 1. Introduction Thank you Chair and Committee for providing Glencore with an opportunity to speak today. We have a full opening statement that can be read into Hansard but would like to highlight a number of key points for the Committee on our business model, tax payments and corporate structures. 2. Glencore Business Model Glencore is one of the world’s largest, diversified natural resource companies, an integrated global producer and marketer of bulk commodities. Our commodities include metals and minerals, energy products and agricultural products. We have more than 90 marketing offices in over 50 countries and our global portfolio of industrial assets includes over 150 mining and metallurgical, oil production and agricultural facilities. We market and distribute physical commodities sourced from our own production and also from third party producers. We also provide financing, processing, storage, logistics and other services to both producers and consumers of commodities. Our global marketing business is a major point of differentiation from our mining peers. Glencore’s direct and indirect business interests span the entire supply chain from exploration and production through to smelting, refining, storage and handling, packaging, rail, trucking, shipping, marketing and trading through to customer end use. Our marketing business is a global logistics network, supplying the commodities that are needed to the places that need them most, sustainably and responsibly. We are open and transparent about our business, and value the relationships we have with our stakeholders. We are proud to be a member of the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM), a supporter of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) and we recently joined the plenary of the UN Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights.

  • When the River Runs Dry: Human and Ecological Values of Dry Riverbeds
    CONCEPTS AND QUESTIONS 202 When the river runs dry: human and ecological values of dry riverbeds Alisha L Steward1,2*, Daniel von Schiller3, Klement Tockner4, Jonathan C Marshall1, and Stuart E Bunn2 Temporary rivers and streams that naturally cease to flow and dry up can be found on every continent. Many other water courses that were once perennial now also have temporary flow regimes due to the effects of water extraction for human use or as a result of changes in land use and climate. The dry beds of these temporary rivers are an integral part of river landscapes. We discuss their importance in human culture and their unique diversity of aquatic, amphibious, and terrestrial biota. We also describe their role as seed and egg banks for aquatic biota, as dispersal corridors and temporal ecotones linking wet and dry phases, and as sites for the storage and processing of organic matter and nutrients. In light of these valuable functions, dry riverbeds need to be fully integrated into river management policies and monitoring programs. We also identify key knowledge gaps and suggest research questions concerning the values of dry riverbeds.

The drilling program is being managed by Teck Australia Pty Ltd (“Teck”) under an Earn-in Agreement with Rox, with Teck funding all drilling and other exploration costs. The first hole drilled by Teck into the prospect, TNDD009 (Figures 3 & 4) has intersected a 116m interval of variable zinc and lead mineralisation from 1,102m, with multiple zones of mineralisation above a 2.5% Zn+Pb cut-off, (full results are listed in Table 1). Rox Managing Director Ian Mulholland commented, “This is a new discovery, potentially the most significant zinc discovery in Australia since CRA found the Century zinc deposit in the early 1990’s. The cumulative thickness of mineralisation in the hole is comparable with the adjacent McArthur River zinc mine, and the grade of the 26.5m interval (13.3% Zn+Pb) is comparable to the published average grade of the McArthur River deposit (13.1% Zn+Pb)”.
