TeckLaunches Zinc Satellite to Surface Value from Portfolio of Zinc Assets

Vancouver, B.C. – Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) (“Teck”) announced today the launch of a Zinc Satellite initiative focused on surfacing value from Teck’s portfolio of world-class zinc development assets located in the Americas and Australia, including five substantial zinc resources.

Zinc Satellite will build on the technical and commercial expertise of Teck’s Project Satellite team, which has successfully advanced and grown the value of various copper growth projects, including San Nicolás in Mexico and Zafranal in Peru, such that Teck now has the best portfolio of copper growth options in the industry.

“The market outlook for zinc is strong, due to declining production from existing primary zinc mines, underinvestment in global exploration for zinc, and long-term demand driven by decarbonization, which is galvanized steel-intensive,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO. “Zinc Satellite will leverage our successful Project Satellite approach of making prudent investments to advance each asset by identifying pragmatic development options and paths to value. Value could ultimately be realized through a standalone investment, a partnership, or other transaction."

The five Zinc Satellite Projects are:

o   Located in west central British Columbia close to existing infrastructure

o   Ready access to Teck Trail operations smelting and refining facility

These projects represent five of the largest 25 undeveloped zinc deposits globally and are all located in stable jurisdictions. We have established work programs and teams to advance these potential zinc growth options with prudent investments to improve our understanding of each asset’s potential, and define associated development options and paths to value for each one.

Teck is currently the world’s largest net zinc miner based on zinc production from Red Dog in Alaska and Antamina in Peru. We also operate one of the world’s largest integrated zinc-lead refineries, located in Trail, B.C.
