    Focusing on mining, prioritizing mineral resources, and synergizing growth across segments;
    Pursuing development for all, driving green and low-carbon growth, and strengthening ESG performance.

Committed to Mining for a Better Society, we provide the materials that improve standards of living in a low-carbon future. Focusing on mining as our core business, we are working to increase our output of critical minerals and expand our global market share. We have also added battery metals to our portfolio and invested in the advanced materials industry prudently. Leveraging innovation, we strive to boost our performance in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) in line with international standards, and improve our health and safety management. This approach will not only enhance our reputation for green and eco-friendly mining but also help sharpen our competitive edge in the global mining industry.

 

Guided by the overarching principle of “improving quality, increasing production, controlling costs, and boosting profitability”, we will transform our internal frameworks and processes, ensuring they are lean, structured and efficient. A key focus will be to address the mismatch between our growing global footprint and our constrained Chinese way of thinking and management. Ultimately, we will build a leading global operations management framework with distinct Zijin characteristics.

 

Our growth will also be fueled by our diverse global talent, strong capital, finance, trading, and logistics operations, and a robust corporate culture. By 2028, we aim to rank among the world’s top three mining companies by key metrics, while targeting production of 1.5–1.6 million tonnes of mined copper, 100–110 tonnes of mined gold, and 250,000–300,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent. By 2035, we want to lead globally in some of those metrics. We also expect to secure higher rankings in gold and copper and emerge as one of the largest producers of lithium and molybdenum. This growth will position us as a green, high-tech, top global mining company.

发展战略
By 2025, we aim to cut our greenhouse gas emissions per unit of industrial added value by 20% from our 2020 levels. By 2029, we will reduce our GHG emissions by 38%, striving to achieve the lowest energy consumption and carbon emissions per unit of output in the industry both in China and globally. We plan to peak our carbon emissions and reach carbon neutrality at certain model mines by 2029, while largely achieving group-wide carbon neutrality by 2050.
