Founded in 1873, Rio Tinto is a global leader in the exploration, development, production, and processing of minerals and metals. It is currently the world’s second-largest mining and metals company, following BHP.
Rio Tinto’s diverse portfolio is grouped into four key product categories: Aluminium, Copper & Diamonds, Energy & Minerals, and Iron Ore.
Its largest export is iron ore, a critical ingredient in steel production, meaning the company’s performance is closely linked to the price of iron ore and other essential commodities.
