This Statement approves the implementation of the Kalgoorlie Rare Earths Processing

Lynas is very pleased to be progressing this important project to establish a Critical
Minerals value added processing facility in Kalgoorlie which meets the strict environmental
conditions of Western Australian regulators.
This is consistent with our environmental, social and governance (ESG) approach, our
commitment to operating in a way that is safe for our people, our communities and the

operate.
Lynas has worked closely with all levels of government to ensure the Kalgoorlie Rare

Manufacturing strategies of the Australian Government, the Future Battery and Critical
Minerals Industries Strategy of the Western Australian Government, and the City of
