Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK)
(“Teck”) today announced its newly expanded Quebrada Blanca
Operations (QB) and Carmen de Andacollo Operations (CdA) have been
awarded the Copper Mark in recognition of environmentally and
socially responsible production practices.
“Copper is an essential metal for the transition to a low-carbon
economy and our new Quebrada Blanca operation, as well as our
Carmen de Andacollo operation, are contributing to helping
sustainably meet growing demand,” said Jonathan Price, President
and CEO, Teck. “Being awarded the Copper Mark demonstrates our
operations’ commitment to responsible copper production, both for
our customers and for the environment and people where we
operate.”
“We are pleased to welcome Quebrada Blanca and Carmen de
Andacollo among the growing number of sites that have received the
Copper Mark,” said Michèle Brülhart, Executive Director of the
Copper Mark. “Teck’s operations are a great example of our
multi-metal approach, having achieved the Copper Mark, the Zinc
Mark and the Molybdenum Mark. We are grateful for Teck’s commitment
to the Copper Mark assurance framework and look forward to
continuing our partnership on the responsible production of key
metals supporting the clean energy transition.”
The newly expanded QB Operation is currently ramping up to full
production, which will double Teck’s annual consolidated copper
production.
In 2022, Teck’s Highland Valley Copper Operations was the first
mine in Canada to achieve Copper Mark verification. In 2023,
Teck’s Trail Operations was the first smelting and refining
facility globally to achieve the Zinc Mark verification.
To be verified for Copper Mark, operations are assessed and
independently verified against 32 responsible production criteria
including greenhouse gas emissions, community health and safety,
respect for Indigenous rights and business integrity. More
information about the Copper Mark verification can be found

Teck’s commitment to responsible production is underpinned by a
comprehensive sustainability strategy, which guides our focus on
operating sustainably, ensuring the health and safety of our
people, and building strong relationships with communities. Learn
