In South America, we're active across several countries, contributing to the region’s development through mining and partnerships. From lithium projects in the Andes to alumina production in Brazil, our presence supports local economies and global supply chains.

We’re committed to working closely with host communities and local businesses. Through our Buy Local initiative, we collaborate with suppliers of all sizes to source the goods and services we need, helping to create jobs and training opportunities across South America.

Host communities and local suppliers are central to building resilient economies. By increasing opportunities for local procurement, we aim to strengthen community ties and deliver lasting socioeconomic value in the regions we operate.
