Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosures

Teck Resources Limited (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, “Teck”) has determined that a conflict mineral, tin, was necessary to the functionality or production of a number of products manufactured by one or more of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in 2015.

The tin included in all of the relevant products, except one, was sourced from a single secondary tin smelter through an agent. That secondary smelter appears on the conflict-free tin smelter list produced and maintained by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition and Global Sustainability Initiative Conflict-Free Smelter Program. The conflict-free smelter list includes entities that are compliant with the Conflict Free Smelter Program assessment protocols and that have been subject to an independent third party audit to assess whether the entity employed policies, practices and procedures to source conflict free minerals. The tin from that smelter is supplied to Teck through a single supplier. That supplier has also confirmed that none of the smelters in its supply chain source tin from any of the covered countries.

For one product, tin removal salt, tin is sourced from recycled materials processed at our Trail operation, zinc and lead concentrates purchased from miners and concentrate traders by our Trail operation, as well as lead and silver bullion acquired from a secondary smelter. We view tin as an impurity in the concentrates and bullion that we purchase; production of tin removal salt is a necessary process to remove these tin impurities. For the relevant product purchased from concentrate traders in 2015, the seller has confirmed in the relevant supply contract that no part of the concentrate supplied under the agreement was sourced from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country. With respect to concentrate purchased directly from miners, concentrate is sourced from a mine operated by the relevant miner. We also reviewed the purchases of concentrate made from miners in 2015 and determined that none of our concentrate purchase agreements in 2015 specified that the source of the concentrate was a mine located in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country. With respect to bullion, the seller has confirmed in the relevant supply contract that no part of the bullion supplied under the agreement was sourced from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country.

Based on our agreements and purchasing arrangements with suppliers and miners and our understanding of the locations that the concentrate traders and miners source concentrate from, as well as our review of the conflict-free smelter list, Teck has determined that the necessary tin for tin removal salt in 2015 did not originate in, or that it has no reason to believe that such necessary tin may have originated in, the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country
