Its peers: Southern Copper, Newmont, Ecolab, The Sherwin-Williams, Freeport-McMoRan, and Air Products and Chemicals, the US Basic Materials companies closest to it in size, each in its own latest fiscal year: their median (the line) and its rank among them, first being the best.

Title: Rio Tinto plc

Sector: Basic Materials
Industry: Industrial Materials
Rio Tinto is a global diversified miner. Iron ore is its major commodity, with lesser contributions from copper and aluminum. Lithium, diamonds, gold, and industrial minerals are more minor contributors. The 1995 merger of RTZ and CRA, viaa dual-listed structure, created the present-day company. The two operate as a single business entity, with shareholders in each company having equivalent economic and voting rights. Major assets included the Pilbara iron ore operations, a30% stake in the Escondida copper mine, 66%-ownership of the Oyu Tolgoi copper mine in Mongolia, the Weipa and Gove bauxite mines in Australia, and six hydro-powered aluminum smelters in Canada.
