Rio Tinto has used its annual Capital Markets Day to reveal plans to further streamline its operations, after a restructuring earlier this year that has seen it focus on three core divisions: iron ore, aluminium and lithium, and copper. Rio Tinto has achieved $US370m worth of annualised productivity gains since the restructure was announced in late August, while it expects another $US280m by the end of the March 2026 quarter. Rio Tinto plans to divest between $US5bn and $US10bn worth of assets, including stakes in some mine-related infrastructure; however, this is expected to exclude its Pilbara railway. Rio Tinto will also significantly reduce its spending on decarbonisation projects..
