Innovation Behaviours

Collaborating employees

lead to new innovation ideas

and the improvement of

innovation ideas.

Testing assumptions early in

the process enables Iluka

employees to learn and

adapt and if failure is to

occur to fail as early as

possible in the process.

Learning from failures

enable Iluka employees to

improve ideas.

Lenses of Innovation

Challenge the status quo

where employees

question deeply held

beliefs inside Iluka and

inside industries about

what drives success.

Identify ways to leverage

our competencies and

strategic assets and

identify customers’

unarticulated needs.

Harness discontinuities

by spotting unnoticed

patterns or trends that

could substantially change

the rules of the game.

An example of ideas being captured

Reducing our environmental footprint and our cost

base by utilizing an emerging solution known as a

BiobiN that reduces compostable volumes by 50%

and enables these to be converted to compost and

biofuel rather than going to landfill in Ceduna.

Focused innovation across the value chainKey challenges looking to be unlocked in Grow and Transform

Sustainable Value

Chain

Automated and Digital

Value Chain

Alternate Excavation

Precision Extraction

Digital Resources

Our priority is ensuring our people are safe and we continue to maintain our

social license to operate. Focus on driving ways to improve our environmental

and social footprint, and to ensure our people are safe through innovation

Exploiting automation, digital and remote operations to optimize the processes of

exploration, mining, processing, rehabilitation and functions to leverage our

existing assets and maximize the return on future investments

With marginal deeper resources and increased material movements associated

with rehabilitation, new more cost effective ways of excavation are required to

leverage our resource base and drive productivity

Our ore orebodies are more complex with declining grades, increased impurities

and challenging physical properties. Recovery and processability are key, as is

defining new products to continue to transform our customers experience and

value-in-use

Leveraging smarter and faster targeting technologies to identify and evaluate

opportunities. Materially increase the number of targets and resources added,

reduce in-country expenses, and reduce the time from sample to resource
