July 15, 2015

Vancouver, B.C. – Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TCK.A and TCK.B, NYSE: TCK) ("Teck”) today released its 2014 Sustainability Report.
Teck, which has been named to the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI) in each of the last five years, has reported annually on its sustainability performance since 2001.
Achievements in 2014 include:
 
 
GHG emissions at Teck operations have been reduced by 170,000 tonnes to date as a result of programs implemented since 2011.
 
38,000 tonnes of waste were recycled on-site at Teck operations.
 
An endangered herd of 24 caribou in northeastern British Columbia was strengthened with the birth of nine calves through a maternal penning program supported by Teck.
 
The 25th anniversary of Teck’s Red Dog mine, which operates under an innovative operating agreement with the Iñupiat people of Northwest Alaska.
 
The number of women in operational and technical roles increased by 16%.
 
Teck received approval from the Government of British Columbia for its Elk Valley Water Quality Plan. This area-based watershed plan featured collaboration with indigenous peoples, local communities, environmental organizations and governments, and incorporated some 700 pieces of expert scientific advice.
 
“Teck’s commitment to sustainability is reflected in the actions of our employees, who are dedicated to doing the right thing for communities, the environment and future generations. Their actions and their commitment is the heart of our constant pursuit of responsible resource development and the key to our company’s success,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO.
“As we have seen in the past year, Teck’s sustainability achievements, large and small, are an important part of our business performance,” said Marcia Smith, Senior Vice President, Sustainability and External Affairs.
In 2011, Teck’s sustainability strategy established short-term (to 2015) and long-term (to 2030) goals in six key areas: Community, Our People, Water, Biodiversity, Energy, and Materials Stewardship.
Teck’s DJSI ranking places its sustainability practices among the top 10 percent of the world’s 2,500 largest public companies. Teck is also ranked as one of the Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations and most sustainable mining company worldwide by Corporate Knights, the media and investment research firm. It has received this recognition for three consecutive years.
