<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt; text-align: center"><B>Teck Announces Construction of Highland Valley
Copper Mine Life Extension to Proceed </B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt"><B>Vancouver, B.C.</B> &ndash; Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A
and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) (&ldquo;Teck&rdquo;) today announced board approval for construction of the Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension
Project (HVC MLE), an important critical minerals investment which will extend the life of Canada&rsquo;s largest copper mine and support
Teck&rsquo;s copper production into the future.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt">&ldquo;This extension of Canada&rsquo;s largest copper mine, Highland
Valley Copper, is foundational to our strategy to double copper production by the end of the decade,&rdquo; said Jonathan Price, President
and CEO. &ldquo;Given the strong demand for copper as an energy transition metal, the Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension will
generate a robust IRR and secure access to this critical mineral for the next two decades. The project will strengthen Canada&rsquo;s
critical minerals sector, generate new economic activity, and support the continuation of the jobs and community benefits that HVC generates
for many more years to come.&rdquo;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt">&ldquo;We look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with
Indigenous Governments, local communities and stakeholders to responsibly secure the long-term future of Highland Valley Copper,&rdquo;
added Price.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0 0 8pt">The decision to sanction HVC MLE was assessed under Teck&rsquo;s Capital
Allocation Framework using a rigorous decision-making approach that included a robust business case focused on returns and increased assurance
requirements, which demonstrated sanction-readiness.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">HVC MLE is a brownfield extension of our operational asset, Highland Valley
Copper (100% Teck owned) in British Columbia, from 2028 out to 2046.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">The environmental assessment certificate and required permits for HVC MLE
were issued in June 2025, and construction is set to commence in full in August 2025. The project consists of upgrades and increased capacity
requirements for the mine life extension and a mine pushback that requires additional waste-stripping to access high-quality ore within
the Valley Pit.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">Additional technical and engineering work has been completed ahead of sanctioning
to optimize the project. Accordingly, the project capital estimate has been refined and is now expected to be between $2.1 to $2.4 billion,
reflecting the class of capital cost estimate, updated assumptions based on prevailing construction industry risks, and the potential
impact of tariffs, with further potential opportunities for cost optimization during construction. This capital is expected to be invested
from H2 2025 through 2028. This project capital investment includes the development of site infrastructure and facilities, expansion of
the mine fleet, grinding circuit upgrades, increased tailings storage capacity,&nbsp;and enhancements to power and water systems. The
refined growth capital estimate is based on a high-definition cost baseline informed by early contractor involvement. It includes project-level
contingencies, accounts for inflation and input cost escalation, the impact of potential tariffs on construction materials, and reflects
the accelerated procurement of mobile equipment originally planned for later project phases. The estimate also incorporates additional
scope and indirect contractor requirements identified through ongoing project refinement.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; background-color: white">Although the annual ore throughput rate will be
variable due to ore hardness, the long-term ore tonnes mined will remain consistent at approximately 50 million tonnes per annum through
the life of mine. However, total material moved will increase starting with Phase 1 of the project, which requires additional waste stripping
to access the high-quality ore in the Valley Pit. During Phase 2, the average total tonnes mined will continue to increase to approximately
200 million tonnes on average from 2028-2033. Thereafter, in Phase 3, total tonnes mined will reduce to approximately 100 million tonnes
on average, with a gradual reduction in tonnes mined from 200 million tonnes to 100 million tonnes through to 2038, and minimal waste
tonnes mined from 2039 to the end of the life of mine in 2046.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0">The grade profile of production is variable depending on the ore input material.
Higher grade material is expected during Phase 1 as an increasing proportion of ore from the Lornex pit is mined. In Phase 2, as mining
progresses to the satellite orebodies at Bethlehem and Highmont, grade will decrease while the pushback and increased waste stripping
of the Valley pit takes place. Thereafter, in Phase 3, the high-quality Valley pit ore is mined with improved grades. Production volumes
will vary in accordance with the grade profile as mill throughput remains consistent throughout the mine life.</P>

recognizes the Teck Board&rsquo;s approval of the Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension project as a defining moment &mdash; not

community members participation. Through our n&lstrok;e&#660;k&eacute;pmx Impact Assessment and as authors of our own sections into the
Environmental Assessment application, the CNA established a new precedent in Canada &mdash; one where Indigenous law, Indigenous governance,
and Indigenous authority are not just consulted, but embedded at the heart of decision-making about our lands, waters, and people. Our
communities are not bystanders to development &mdash; we are decision-makers. We are forging a new path with Industry and the Crown for
how major projects unfold in our territory: grounded in respect, guided by our values, and focused on long-term benefit for our people.
As the project enters construction, we remain firm in our expectations. Our voices must continue to be heard. Our laws must continue to
guide the process. Our people must continue to share in the benefits &mdash; now, and for generations to come.&rdquo;</P>
