Northparkes Mines

Our Vision

"We are a responsible copper-gold producer, focussed on creating value by delivering on our promises, using our resources wisely and investing in our business and community for the future"

Our values

At Northparkes we operate within Rio Tinto's policy "The way we work" which is the global code on how we conduct our business.

The Northparkes Values Statement was developed through a consultative process involving all employees at Northparkes. This grass roots approach to how we manage the culture within our business is one of the key contributors to what makes Northparkes such a great place to work. This statement shapes the way we work together to achieve our business goals.

Our values form the foundation for which the business operates on.
