About Ivanhoe Mines

Ivanhoe Mines (TSX: IVN; OTCQX: IVPAF) is a Canadian mining company focused on advancing its three principal projects in Southern Africa: the development of new Tier One mines at the Kamoa-Kakula copper discovery in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and the Platreef platinum-palladium-nickel-copper-gold discovery in South Africa; and the extensive redevelopment and upgrading of the historic, high-grade Kipushi zinc-copper-germanium-silver mine, also in the DRC. Ivanhoe also is exploring for major, new copper discoveries on its 100%-owned Western Foreland exploration licences in the DRC, near the Kamoa-Kakula Project.

Key Development Projects

Platreef

South Africa

Development of the planned underground mine at the Flatreef Discovery of platinum-group elements, nickel, copper and gold, in the northern Bushveld Complex.

Kamoa-Kakula

Democratic Republic of the Congo

Construction of multiple, high-grade underground mines at the Kakula and Kamoa copper deposits, with initial production scheduled to begin in Q3 2021. Kamoa-Kakula is Africa's largest high-grade copper discovery and, through phased expansions, is positioned to become one of the world's largest copper producers.

Kipushi

Democratic Republic of the Congo

A major upgrading program by an Ivanhoe-led joint venture is underway at the past-producing high-grade zinc-copper-silver-germanium mine.
