<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This prospectus provides you with a general description of the debt securities we may offer. Each time we use this prospectus to offer debt
securities, we will provide a prospectus supplement containing specific information about the terms of the debt securities. The prospectus supplement may also add to, update or change information contained in this prospectus. The registration
statement containing this prospectus, including exhibits to the registration statement, provides additional information about us and the debt securities offered under this prospectus. Before you invest in any debt securities offered using this
prospectus, you should read both this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement together with the additional information described on page&nbsp;7 under the heading &#8220;Where You Can Find More Information About the BHP Group&#8221;.
However, if there is any inconsistency between the information in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, the information in that prospectus supplement shall prevail. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Investing in the debt securities offered using this prospectus involves risk. We have set forth risk factors relating to our business in our
most recent annual report on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;20-F,</FONT> which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Our subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#8220;SEC&#8221;), including
our annual reports on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;20-F</FONT> for future fiscal years or any reports on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;6-K</FONT> specifically incorporated in this prospectus by reference, may contain
amended and updated discussions of significant risks to our business. If applicable, we will also include certain additional risk factors that relate specifically to securities being offered in any prospectus supplement used in connection with any
such offering. For additional information, refer to the section entitled &#8220;Incorporation of Information We File with the SEC.&#8221; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">You should carefully consider all of these risks, as well as the other information in, or incorporated by reference in, the prospectus and any
prospectus supplement before you decide whether to buy the debt securities. If any of the situations described in these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely suffer. In this case, any trading
price of the debt securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks relating to the Debt Securities </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Since BHP Group Limited is a holding company and conducts its operations through subsidiaries, your right to receive payments on the guarantees is
subordinated to the other liabilities of its subsidiaries, other than BHP Finance. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP Group Limited is organized as a holding
company and substantially all of its operations are carried on through its subsidiaries. The BHP Group&#8217;s principal source of income is the dividends and distributions that it receives from its subsidiaries. The ability of BHP Group Limited to
meet its financial obligations is dependent upon the availability of cash flows from its subsidiaries and affiliated companies through dividends, intercompany advances, management fees and other payments. These subsidiaries and affiliated companies
are not required and may not be able to pay dividends to BHP Group Limited. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, some of these subsidiaries are subject to laws
restricting the amount of dividends they may pay. For example, these laws may prohibit dividend payments when net assets would fall below subscribed share capital, when the subsidiary lacks available profits or when the subsidiary fails to meet
certain capital and reserve requirements. English law prohibits those subsidiaries incorporated in the United Kingdom from paying dividends unless these payments are made out of distributable profits. Australian law prohibits the payment of
dividends unless the company&#8217;s assets exceed its liabilities immediately before the dividend is declared and the excess is sufficient for the payment of the dividend, the payment of the dividend is fair and reasonable to the company&#8217;s
shareholders as a whole and the payment of the dividend does not materially prejudice the company&#8217;s ability to pay its creditors. Other statutory and general law obligations also affect the ability of directors of these subsidiaries to declare
dividends and the ability of these subsidiaries to make payments to BHP Group Limited on account of intercompany loans. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Investors should
also note that claims of the creditors of the subsidiaries of BHP Group Limited have priority as to the assets of such subsidiaries over the claims of BHP Group Limited. In addition, BHP Group (UK) Ltd (formerly known as BHP Group Plc) is not a
guarantor of any debt securities offered using this prospectus, but has guaranteed, and may in the future guarantee, other indebtedness of members of the BHP Group, including as of the date of this prospectus, the issuer&#8217;s outstanding 4.125%
senior notes due 2042 and 5.000% senior notes due 2043. Consequently, on the insolvency of BHP Group Limited and its subsidiaries, holders of debt securities issued by the issuer and guaranteed by BHP Group Limited are structurally subordinated to
the prior claims of the creditors of subsidiaries of BHP Group Limited (including BHP Group (UK) Ltd), other than the issuer. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Since the debt
securities are unsecured, your right to receive payments may be adversely affected. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The debt securities will be unsecured. At
June&nbsp;30, 2025, the guarantor had no secured indebtedness outstanding. If BHP Finance defaults on the debt securities offered using this prospectus or BHP Group Limited </P>

defaults on the guarantees of such debt securities, or after the bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of either of them, then, to the extent that the issuer or the guarantor has granted
security over their assets, the assets that secure those debts will be used to satisfy the obligations under that secured debt before any payment on the debt securities or the guarantees can be made. There may only be limited assets available to
make payments on the debt securities or the guarantees in the event of an acceleration of the debt securities. If there is not enough collateral to satisfy the obligations of the secured debt, then the remaining amounts on the secured debt would
share on the same basis as all unsubordinated unsecured indebtedness. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If the issuer defaults on the debt securities, or the guarantor defaults on
the guarantees, your right to receive payments on the guarantees may be adversely affected by Australian insolvency laws. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP
Group Limited and BHP Finance are incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Australia and, therefore, insolvency proceedings with respect to them would be likely to proceed under, and be governed by, Australian insolvency law. The
procedural and substantive provisions of Australian insolvency laws are generally more favorable to secured creditors than comparable provisions of United States law. These provisions afford debtors and unsecured creditors only limited protection
from the claims of secured creditors and it will generally not be possible for the guarantor, the issuer or other unsecured creditors to prevent or delay the secured creditors from enforcing their security to repay the debts due to them. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>If you are a U.S. holder, the substitution of the issuer of our debt securities could cause you to realize a taxable gain or loss for U.S. tax purposes,
if any, on any such debt securities that you hold. Similarly, if you are an Australian holder, the substitution of the issuer of our debt securities could cause you to realize a taxable gain or loss for Australian tax purposes, if any, on any such
debt securities that you hold. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The terms of the debt securities will permit us to transfer the obligations of BHP Finance, as
issuer of the debt securities of any series, to BHP Group Limited or any of its subsidiaries. In the case of such a substitution, the issuer prior to such substitution will be relieved of any further obligations under the assumed series of debt
securities. Under U.S. and Australian tax law, the change in the issuer on our debt securities under these provisions could be treated as a disposition of any such debt securities that you hold, resulting in your realization of gain or loss on our
debt securities even though you continue to hold our debt securities and receive no distribution in connection with the deemed disposition. A change of issuer may also cause the debt securities to cease to be eligible for the exemption from
Australian interest withholding tax. See &#8220;Material Tax Consequences&#8212;U.S. Federal Income Taxation&#8212; Substitution of Issuer&#8221; and &#8220;Material Tax Consequences&#8212;Australian Taxation&#8212;Substitution of Issuer&#8221; for
discussion of possible tax consequences. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>There is no established trading market for the debt securities that BHP Finance is offering and one may
not develop. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The debt securities will be new securities for which there currently is no established trading market. There is a
risk regarding the future development of a market for the debt securities or the ability of holders of the debt securities to sell their debt securities or the price at which such holders may be able to sell their debt securities. If such a market
were to develop, the debt securities could trade at prices that may be lower than the initial public offering price depending on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, BHP Group&#8217;s operating results and the market for similar
securities. Therefore, there is a risk as to the liquidity of any trading market for the debt securities or that an active public market for the debt securities will not develop. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The indenture will not restrict the amount of additional indebtedness that we may incur. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The debt securities and the indenture under which the debt securities will be issued will not place any limitation on the amount of
indebtedness that may be incurred by us. Our incurrence of additional indebtedness may have important consequences for you as a holder of the debt securities, including making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the
debt securities, increasing the amount of indebtedness ranking equal or (if secured) effectively senior to the debt securities in the event of our bankruptcy or insolvency, resulting in a loss in the trading value of your debt securities, if any,
and increasing the risk that the credit rating of the debt securities is lowered or withdrawn. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Neither the issuer nor the guarantor will enter into any sale and leaseback transaction involving a property, other than as allowed by this
covenant, as described below. A sale and leaseback transaction is an arrangement between the issuer or the guarantor and a bank, insurance company or other lender or investor where it or they lease a property that it or they previously owned for
more than six months and sold to a lender or investor or to any person to whom the lender or investor has advanced funds on the security of the principal property. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The restriction on sales and leasebacks does not apply to any sale and leaseback transaction between any companies of the BHP Group. It also
does not apply to any lease with a term, including renewals, of three years or less. Further, the indenture does not restrict the ability of any subsidiary (other than the issuer) to enter into sale and leaseback transactions. At the date of this
prospectus, a substantial portion of the issuer&#8217;s and the guarantor&#8217;s consolidated assets are held directly by subsidiaries other than the issuer and so would not be subject to the covenant restricting sale and leaseback transactions.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The covenant allows the issuer or the guarantor to enter into sale and leaseback transactions in two additional situations. First, the
issuer or the guarantor may enter into sale and leaseback transactions if it could grant a lien on the property in an amount equal to the indebtedness attributable to the sale and leaseback transaction without being required to grant an equivalent
or higher-ranking lien to you and the other direct holders of the debt securities under the restriction on liens described above. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Second,
the issuer or the guarantor may enter sale and leaseback transactions if, within one&nbsp;year of the transaction, the issuer or the guarantor, as the case may be, invest an amount equal to at least the net proceeds of the sale of the principal
property that the issuer or the guarantor, as the case may be, lease in the transaction or the fair value of that property, whichever is greater. This amount must be invested in any of the issuer&#8217;s or the guarantor&#8217;s property or used to
retire indebtedness for money that it or they borrowed, incurred or assumed that either has a maturity of 12&nbsp;months or more from the date of incurrence of the indebtedness or which may be extended beyond 12&nbsp;months from that date at the
issuer&#8217;s or the guarantor&#8217;s option. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance </B></P>

systems we will use are the book-entry systems operated by The Depositary Trust Company (&#8220;DTC&#8221;) in the United States, Clearstream Banking, S.A. (&#8220;Clearstream&#8221;) in Luxembourg and Euroclear SA/NV (&#8220;Euroclear&#8221;) in
Brussels, Belgium. These systems have established electronic securities and payment transfer, processing, depositary and custodial links among themselves and others, either directly or through custodians and depositaries. These links allow
securities to be issued, held and transferred among the clearing systems without the physical transfer of certificates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Special
procedures to facilitate clearance and settlement have been established among these clearing systems to trade securities across borders in the secondary market. Where payments for debt securities BHP Finance issues in global form will be made in
United States dollars, these procedures can be used for cross-market transfers and the securities will be cleared and settled on a delivery against payment basis. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Cross-market transfers of debt securities that are not in global form may be cleared and settled in accordance with other procedures that may
be established among the clearing systems for these securities. Investors in debt securities that are issued outside of the United States, its territories and possessions must initially hold their interests through Euroclear, Clearstream or the
clearance system that is described in the applicable prospectus supplement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The policies of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear will govern

one business day prior to settlement. The instructions will provide for the transfer of the securities from the selling DTC participant&#8217;s account to the account of the purchasing Euroclear or Clearstream participant. Euroclear or Clearstream,
as the case may be, will then instruct the common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream to receive the debt securities either against payment or free of payment. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The beneficial interests in the debt securities will be credited to the respective clearing system. The clearing system will then credit the
account of the participant, following its usual procedures. Credit for the debt securities will appear on the next day, European time. Cash debit will be back-valued to, and the interest on the debt securities will accrue from, the value date, which
would be the preceding day, when settlement occurs in New York. If the trade fails and settlement is not completed on the intended date, the Euroclear or Clearstream cash debit will be valued as of the actual settlement date instead. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Euroclear participants or Clearstream participants will need the funds necessary to process <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">same-day</FONT>
funds settlement. The most direct means of doing this is to preposition funds for settlement, either from cash or from existing lines of credit, as for any settlement occurring within Euroclear or Clearstream. Under this approach, participants may
take on credit exposure to Euroclear or Clearstream until the securities are credited to their accounts one business day later. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As an
alternative, if Euroclear or Clearstream has extended a line of credit to them, participants can choose not to preposition funds and will allow that credit line to be drawn upon to finance settlement. Under this procedure, Euroclear participants or
Clearstream participants purchasing debt securities would incur overdraft charges for one business day, (assuming they cleared the overdraft as soon as the debt securities were credited to their accounts). However, interest on the debt securities
would accrue from the value date. Therefore, in many cases, the investment income on debt securities that is earned during that one business day period may substantially reduce or offset the amount of the overdraft charges. This result will,
however, depend on each participant&#8217;s particular cost of funds. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because the settlement will take place during New York business
hours, DTC participants will use their usual procedures to deliver debt securities to the depositary on behalf of Euroclear participants or Clearstream participants. The sale proceeds will be available to the DTC seller on the settlement date. For
the DTC participants, then, a cross-market transaction will settle no differently than a trade between two DTC participants. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Except as set forth below, there is no provision in any contract, arrangement or statute under which any director or officer of the issuer or
the BHP Group is insured or indemnified in any manner against any liability which he/she may incur in his/her capacity as such. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Rule&nbsp;146 of the Constitution of BHP Group Limited requires the company to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent and
for the amount that the relevant director, secretary or executive officer is not otherwise entitled to be indemnified and is not actually indemnified by another person, its directors, secretaries and executive officers against liability incurred in,
or arising out of, the conduct of the business of the company or the discharge of the duties of the relevant director, secretary or executive officer. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with this requirement, BHP Group Limited has entered into Deeds of Indemnity, Insurance and Access (&#8220;Deeds of
Indemnity&#8221;) with each of its directors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under BHP&#8217;s Deed Poll for Indemnification, BHP Group Limited and BHP Group (UK) Ltd
(formerly known as BHP Group Plc) must, to the extent permitted by law, indemnify current and former employees of the BHP Group against liability to third parties incurred in or arising out of the conduct of the business of the BHP Group or the
discharge of the duties of these employees, including where an employee performs a role at another entity at the request of the BHP Group. The indemnity is subject to certain limitations and does not apply where the liability has arisen in
circumstances involving recklessness, willful misconduct or lack of good faith by the employee seeking indemnification. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">BHP Group has
insured against amounts that it may be liable to pay to directors, company secretaries or certain employees (including former officers) pursuant to Rule 146 of the Constitution of BHP Group Limited, BHP Group otherwise agrees to pay by way of
indemnity. The insurance policy also insures directors, company secretaries and some employees (including former officers) against certain liabilities (including legal costs) they may incur in carrying out their duties. BHP Group has paid premiums
for this &#8220;Directors and Officers&#8221; insurance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There are certain provisions of the Australian Corporations Act that restrict

incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrants will, unless in the opinion of their counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </P>

guarantees contained in the indenture, dated as of February&nbsp;28, 2023 (the &#8220;<U>Indenture</U>&#8221;), by and among the Company, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the &#8220;<U>Trustee</U>&#8221;), and incorporated
by reference as Exhibit 4.1 to the Registration Statement, relating to the Securities and noted on the forms of Securities attached thereto (the &#8220;<U>Guarantees</U>&#8221;), we, as your United States counsel, have examined such corporate

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Upon the basis of such examination, it is our opinion that, when the Registration Statement has become effective under the Act, the terms of
the Securities and the related Guarantees and of their issuance and sale have been duly established in conformity with the Indenture so as not to violate any applicable law or result in a default under or breach of any agreement or instrument
binding upon the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, and so as to comply with any requirement or restriction imposed by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, and the Securities and
the related Guarantees have been duly executed and authenticated in accordance with the Indenture and issued and sold as contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Securities will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company
and the Guarantees by the Guarantor will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Guarantor, in each case, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability

currency unit or the related Guarantee in a Federal or state court in the United States ordinarily would be enforced in the United States only in United States dollars. The date used to determine the rate of conversion of the foreign currency or
currency unit in which a particular Security is denominated or the related Guarantee into United States dollars will depend upon various factors, including which court renders the judgment. Under Section&nbsp;27 of the New&nbsp;York Judiciary Law, a
state court in the State of New&nbsp;York rendering a judgment on a Security or related Guarantee would be required to render such judgment in the foreign currency in which the Security or Guarantee is denominated, and such judgment would be
converted into United States dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of entry of the judgment. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing opinion is

been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Guarantor insofar as the laws of the Commonwealth of Australia are concerned. With respect to all matters of Australian law, we note you have received an opinion, dated
August&nbsp;29, 2025, of Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer, your Australian legal advisor. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Also, we have relied as to certain factual
