Teck Provides Update on Antamina

Vancouver, B.C. – Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) ("Teck”)

announced today that Compania Minera Antamina, in which Teck has a 22.5% interest, continues to operate the Antamina mine under an exemption from recently announced Peruvian Government restrictions imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Critical operations will be maintained by a reduced workforce throughout the 15-day national emergency quarantine period. Appropriate precautions are being taken by Antamina to protect its workforce during this challenging period. There have been no confirmed cases of COVID-19 at the mine site. Assuming no further adverse developments in connection with COVID-19, any temporary reduction in production is expected to be recovered in line with existing 2020 guidance.

Teck Temporarily Suspends Construction Activities

        for QB2 Project in Response to COVID-19

Vancouver, B.C. – Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) ("Teck”) announced today a temporary suspension of construction activities at its Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 (QB2) project to ensure employee safety and support Chilean efforts to limit transmission of COVID-19.

This suspension will be for an initial two-week period, at which point Teck will re-assess the status of the project in light of the rapidly evolving COVID-19 situation. The suspension will affect a total of approximately 15,000 workers on the QB2 project.

“Considering the significant size and scale of the QB2 project, and the fact that workers on the project commute in large numbers from all over Chile, this is the right decision to protect the health and safety of workers and their families, and to support the Chilean government efforts to halt the spread of COVID-19,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO, Teck. “In the days ahead, we will be putting a plan in place to be ready to restart construction as soon as possible, subject to further developments in the response to COVID-19. I want to thank all workers for their understanding and their continued focus on health and safety during this challenging time.”

The orderly suspension of construction activities is effective immediately, and the workforce will demobilize over the coming days. There have been no confirmed cases of COVID-19 associated with QB2 employees or contractors to date.

Teck will be providing a QB2 Project Update during the annual Investor and Analyst Day conference call on April 1.

The Quebrada Blanca Phase 2 (QB2) Project is one of the world’s largest undeveloped copper resources. Teck holds an indirect 60% interest in Compañía Minera Teck Quebrada Blanca SA (“QBSA”) which owns QB2. Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. and Sumitomo Corporation together have a collective 30% indirect interest in QBSA. ENAMI, a Chilean state agency, has a 10% non-funding interest in QBSA.
