<P STYLE="line-height:1.0pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:2pt;border-bottom:1px solid #000000">&nbsp;</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Further to BHP&#146;s announcement on 30&nbsp;July
2024, BHP Investments Canada Inc. (<B>BHP Canada</B>) and Lundin Mining Corporation (<B>Lundin Mining</B>) have completed the acquisition of Filo Corp., a Toronto Stock Exchange listed company (the <B>Filo Acquisition</B>). Filo Corp. owns 100% of
the Filo del Sol (<B>FDS</B>) copper project. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP Canada and Lundin Mining have also formed the Canadian-incorporated joint venture company,
Vicu&ntilde;a Corp. (the <B>Joint Venture</B>) to hold the FDS copper project and the Josemaria copper project located in the Vicu&ntilde;a district of Argentina and Chile (together with the Filo Acquisition, the <B>Transaction</B>). BHP Canada and
Lundin Mining each own 50% of the Joint Venture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Prior to completion, Lundin Mining owned 100% of the Josemaria project. At completion, BHP Canada
acquired a 50% interest in the Josemaria copper project from Lundin Mining. BHP Canada and Lundin Mining then contributed their respective 50% interests in Filo Corp. and the Josemaria project into the Joint Venture. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP&#146;s total cash payment for the Transaction was US$2.0&nbsp;billion. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Mike Henry, Chief Executive Officer of BHP said: </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>&#147;BHP is pleased to be partnering with Lundin Mining in the Vicu&ntilde;a Joint Venture, an exciting new copper growth opportunity for both companies.
Leveraging the complementary capabilities of Lundin Mining and BHP, the development of Vicu&ntilde;a&#146;s projects aims to deliver substantial value to shareholders, as well as to other stakeholders. The projects will be developed and will operate
in line with international industry standards. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>BHP is one of the world&#146;s leading producers of copper, a metal essential to global economic
growth, the energy transition and to the rapidly growing demand for data centres to support the harnessing of artificial intelligence.&#148; </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Details of the Transaction </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Filo Acquisition was
approved by Filo Corp shareholders on 26&nbsp;September 2024 and the final court order for the plan of arrangement has been obtained. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The total
consideration for the Filo Acquisition was C$4.0&nbsp;billion excluding the Filo shares already held by Lundin Mining and BHP respectively. BHP Canada&#146;s share of the consideration for the Filo Acquisition was C$2.0&nbsp;billion (US$1.4 billion)
in cash at C$33.00 per Filo Corp. share. Lundin Mining&#146;s share of the consideration for the Filo Acquisition was C$877.8&nbsp;million in cash and 94.1&nbsp;million Lundin Mining shares. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP Canada paid Lundin Mining US$690&nbsp;million cash consideration for a 50% interest in the Josemaria project. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Joint Venture is governed by a joint venture shareholder agreement which is between BHP Canada, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lundin Mining, and
Vicu&ntilde;a Corp. Vicu&ntilde;a Corp. will be the operator (acting independently from BHP Canada and Lundin Mining) and will be responsible for the management of the projects. BHP Canada and Lundin Mining will have equal voting rights on the Board
of the Joint Venture and as shareholders of the Joint Venture. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Authorised for release by Stefanie Wilkinson, Group General Counsel and Group Company
