First Quarter 2021 Production Report

Apr 29, 2021
Glencore Chief Executive Officer, Ivan Glasenberg:
 
  • “The Group’s overall production was broadly  in line with our expectations for the first quarter. Production in Q1 2021 reflects that many of our operations continue to maintain thorough Covid-safe working practices, as appropriate for each specific country and region. Coal production was down 7.4 million tonnes, reflecting Prodeco’s care and maintenance status and the market-related production cuts in Australia, actioned in H2 2020. Full year production guidance has been maintained for our key commodities.
  • “Basis Q1 2021’s marketing performance, we expect full year Marketing EBIT to be within the top half of our long-term $2.2-3.2 billion p.a. guidance range.”
 
Production from own sources – Total
 
 
 
Production guidance
 
  • No changes versus previous guidance.

 

 

Q1 production highlights
 
  • Own sourced copper production of 301,200 tonnes was 3% higher than in Q1 2020, mainly relating to productivity improvements and mine plan sequencing at our South American operations including Collahuasi, Antamina and Antapaccay.
  • Own sourced zinc production of 282,600 tonnes was 13,000 tonnes (4%) lower than Q1 2020, mainly relating to lower grades at Kazzinc’s Maleevsky mine and mine sequencing at Kidd.
  • Own sourced nickel production of 25,200 tonnes was 3,000 tonnes (11%) lower than Q1 2020, primarily reflecting maintenance at Koniambo.
  • Attributable ferrochrome production of 399,000 tonnes was 3% up on Q1 2020, reflecting the impact of the South African national lockdown on the base period, having commenced late March 2020.
  • Coal production of 24.5 million tonnes was 7.4 million tonnes (23%) lower than Q1 2020, mainly reflecting cessation of mining at Prodeco (3.8 million tonnes) and various changes in the Australian portfolio (2.9 million tonnes).
  • Entitlement interest oil production of 1.1 million barrels of oil equivalent (boe) was 0.7 million boe (41%) lower than in Q1 2020, reflecting the Chad oil fields placed on care and maintenance in April 2020. Partly offsetting, the gas phase of the Equatorial Guinea project commenced in February 2021, resulting in an overall 83% quarterly sequential increase in entitlement interest production.
