Source: Bloomberg, Guotai Junan International. We expect the global copper market to be stable in 2019 and the average annual copper price to trade between US$ 6,100/t-US$ 6,700/t. We expect gold price to remain flat in 2019 and fluctuate around the level of US$ 1,250/oz. We expect the global copper market to remain at a normal level in 2019 just like in 2018, after a significant surge in 2010-2013 (00358 HK) and deep dive in 2014-2016. As China’s economy enters into the "new normal" era, global copper consumption demand is not expected to record such huge growth as seen during the last decade. On the supply side, miners confront a more stable market and expect reasonable returns. As a result, we expect the global copper market to become more stable under new 江西铜业 supply-demand constraint conditions. Copper mines are expected to enjoy comfortable profitability under the new copper price level. We expect copper price to trade between US$ 5,400/t-US$ 7,200/t in 2019, and average copper price may be around US$ 6,100/t-US$ 6,700/t. The monetary policy of the U.S. Federal Reserve (the "Federal Reserve") is expected to come to a turning point in 2019. Although the Federal Reserve will continue to raise interest rate and cut its balance sheet, the Jiangxi Copper pace will slow down greatly. The Federal Reserve is widely expected to raise interest rate twice in 2019, compared to 4 times in 2018. It is also expected that the balance sheet cut process of the Federal Reserve may be slowed in 2019. Although monetary policy of the U.S. Federal Reserve is still tight, pressure weighing on gold price in 2019 is expected to be less compared to that in 2018. However, the U.S. dollar is still expected to appreciate and market investors still lack interest in gold assets. We expect gold price to remain under pressure in 2019 as the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve remains tight. The performance of the U.S. economy has been much better than its western developed counterparts, but its prospects are facing more uncertainties. The chairman of the Federal Reserve indicated that the interest rate in the U.S. is closing to the neutral range, which means that a turning point is closing and there may not be more tightening. On the other hand, investor preference for gold assets remains stagnant as global financial markets are generally stable. We believe that the fundamentals of gold will not change much in 2019 and that gold price will remain flat. We expect gold price to fluctuate between US$ 1,100/oz-US$ 1,350/oz in 2019, and the annual average gold price to be around US$ 1,250/oz. In 2019, the Company plans to produce 1.44 million tons of refined copper, 0.21 million tons of mined copper and 25.0 Report tons of gold. The output target of mining products of the Company generally remains the same compared to that of 2018.The production of the Company was stable and the Company generally fulfilled its output target in 2018. Generally speaking, the output of mined copper, which contributes most of the profit to the Company, has remained stable over the past several years Company as mining capacity of the Company remained unchanged. Jiangxi Copper only acquired a partial stake in two copper mines with other companies in the past few years, and both of them are under construction and will take some time before See the last page for disclaimer Page 2 of 6 [Table_PageHeader]Jiangxi Copper (00358 HK) production can start.

  • Conflict Minerals Report for 2019, We Have Completed Our Analysis of The
    Conflict Minerals Report For 2019, we have completed our analysis of the suppliers for Amazon electronic devices, fashion and apparel, and other consumer products that fall within the scope of the applicable rules (collectively, in-scope products). A majority of these suppliers certified that they: did not use gold, tin, tungsten, or tantalum in parts or components for our in-scope products; did not source these minerals from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, referred to as the DRC region; or sourced these minerals from a smelter or refiner that complies with a responsible mineral sourcing validation program such as the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process. The remaining suppliers are still completing investigations of their supply chains. As discussed in the Conclusion, for 2019, we identified no suppliers that were sourcing minerals through a supply chain that benefitted armed groups in the DRC region. Pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s conflict minerals rules, we designed our due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the gold, tin, tungsten, and tantalum in our in-scope products in accordance with the OECD’s Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas Third Edition, and the related Supplements on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten and on Gold. We undertook the steps described below as part of our due diligence process: Establish strong company management systems We are committed to avoiding the use of minerals that have fueled conflict, and we expect our suppliers to support our efforts to identify the origin of gold, tin, tungsten, and tantalum used in products that we manufacture or contract to manufacture.

    Exhibit 1.01 Elbit Systems Ltd. Conflict Minerals Report For the Year Ended December 31, 2020 In Accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 A. Introduction This Conflict Minerals Report (this “Report”) of Elbit Systems Ltd. (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, “Elbit Systems” or “we”) for the year ended December 31, 2020 is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 (the “CM Rule”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The CM Rule was adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to “conflict minerals” under Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Pursuant to Section 1502, publicly traded companies, such as Elbit Systems, must report to the SEC whether “conflict minerals” (tantalum, tin, tungsten and gold) (“3TG”) originating in the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”) or adjoining countries (Angola, Burundi, The Central African Republic, The Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia) (the “Covered Countries”) are present in the products the company manufactures or contracts to manufacture, if any of the 3TG is necessary to the functionality or production of such products. The CM Rule was adopted because the sale of 3TG mined in the Covered Countries has funded armed conflicts in that region, and those conflicts have led to numerous human rights abuses and atrocities. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms used in this Report have the meanings ascribed to them in the CM Rule, Form SD and SEC Release No. 34-67716 issued by the SEC in 2012.
