Ok Tedi Mining Limited (Ok Tedi) wishes to reassure stakeholders and the public that its operations continue as normal despite the current dry weather conditions and low river levels along the Fly River.

The Company confirms that there has been no disruption to production activities, and all operations remain stable and fully functional.

Ok Tedi also advises that there are sufficient food stocks and essential supplies on site to support ongoing operations and workforce needs.

As part of its proactive planning, the Company is currently assessing and implementing alternative supply routes to ensure the continued delivery of fuel, food, and other critical materials. These measures are being put in place to minimise any potential impact arising from reduced river levels.

“Alternate routes are currently being reviewed for exporting of copper concentrate and bringing in fuel and other supplies in the event of an El Nino’’ said Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Kedi Ilimbit. “Unlike in the previous dry seasons we didn’t have those routes,’’ Mr Ilimbit added.

Ok Tedi remains committed to maintaining safe, reliable, and continuous operations while ensuring the wellbeing of its employees and host communities.

The Company will continue to monitor the situation closely and provide updates as necessary.
