LETTER FROM THE BOARD

PROPOSAL FOR GENERAL MANDATE TO ISSUE NEW H SHARES

To ensure flexibility and discretion for the Board to issue new Shares, the Company will put forward a resolution at the AGM to grant the General Mandate to the Board to allot, issue and deal with addition H Shares of the Company up to the limit of 20% of the aggregate nominal value of H Shares of the Company in issue as at the date of passing of such resolution.

PROPOSAL FOR GENERAL MANDATE TO REPURCHASE H SHARES

The Company Law (to which the Company is subject) provides that a joint stock limited company incorporated in the PRC may not repurchase its shares unless such repurchase is effected for the purpose of (a) reducing its registered share capital; (b) in connection with a merger between itself and another entity that holds its shares; (c) granting shares as reward to the staff of the company; or (d) the repurchase is made at the request of its shareholders who disagrees with shareholders' resolutions in connection with a merger or division. The Mandatory Provisions, which the Company has incorporated in its Articles of Association, provide that subject to obtaining the approval of the relevant regulatory authorities and compliance with its articles of association, share repurchases may be effected by a joint stock limited company listed outside the PRC for the purpose of reducing its share capital or in connection with a merger between itself and another entity that holds its shares or in circumstances permitted by law or administrative regulations.

The Hong Kong Listing Rules permit shareholders of a PRC joint stock limited company to grant a general mandate to the Directors to repurchase the H shares of such company that are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Such mandate is required to be given by way of a special resolution passed by shareholders in general meeting and special resolutions passed by holders of domestic shares and overseas listed foreign shares in separate meetings.

As H Shares are traded on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in Hong Kong dollars and the price payable by the Company upon any repurchase of H Shares will, therefore, be paid in Hong Kong dollars, the approval of the relevant regulatory institutions of the State is required. Additionally, the Company shall make a filing with the CSRC 15 working days after the Company has repurchased its Shares.

In accordance with the requirements of Article 28 of the Articles of Association applicable to capital reduction, the Company will have to notify its creditors of the passing of the resolution for the reduction of the registered capital of the Company within 10 days after the passing of such resolution and also by way of a publication on a newspaper within 30 days after the passing of the resolution. Creditors then have a period of up to 30 days after the Company's written notification or if no such notification has been received, up to 45 days after the publication of the press announcement to require the Company to repay amounts due to them or to provide guarantees in respect of such amounts.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

Accordingly, approval is being sought from the Shareholders for a conditional general mandate to repurchase H Shares in issue. In accordance with the legal and regulatory requirements described above, the Directors will put forward the relevant resolutions at the AGM, the A Shareholders' Class Meeting and the H Shareholders' Class Meeting. At each of such meeting, a special resolution will be proposed to grant to the Directors a conditional general mandate to repurchase H Shares in issue on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with an aggregate nominal value not exceeding 10% of the aggregate nominal value of H Shares in issue of the Company as at the date of the passing of such resolution. The Repurchase Mandate will be conditional upon (a) the special resolution for the grant of the Repurchase Mandate being approved at each of the AGM, the A Shareholders' Class Meeting and the H Shareholders' Class Meeting; (b) the approvals of the SAFE and/or any other regulatory authorities (if applicable) as required by the laws, rules and regulations of the PRC being obtained; and (c) the Company not being required by any of its creditors to repay or to provide guarantee in respect of any amount due to any of them (or if the Company is so required by any of its creditors, the Company having, in its absolute discretion, repaid or provided guarantee in respect of such amount) pursuant to the notification procedure under Article 28 of the Articles of Association as described above. If the Company determines to repay any amount to any of its creditors in circumstances described under condition (c), it expects to do so out of its internal resources. If the conditions are not fulfilled, the Repurchase Mandate will not be exercised by the Directors.

The Repurchase Mandate would expire on the earlier of (a) the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company following the passing of the relevant special resolution at the AGM, A Shareholders' Class Meeting and H Shareholders' Class Meeting; (b) the expiration of a period of twelve months following the passing of the relevant special resolution at the AGM, A Shareholders' Class Meeting and H Shareholders' Class Meeting; or (c) the date on which the authority conferred by the relevant special resolution is revoked or varied by a special resolution of the Shareholders at a general meeting or by H Shareholders or A Shareholders at their respective class meetings.

A special resolution will be proposed at the AGM, A Shareholders' Class Meeting and H Shareholders' Class Meeting to grant to the Directors the Repurchase Mandate, details of which are set out in the notice of the AGM, the notice of the A Shareholders' Class Meeting and the notice of the H Shareholders' Class Meeting. The H Shares which may be repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Mandate shall not exceed 10% of the aggregate nominal value of H Shares in issue of the Company as at the date of passing of the resolutions approving the Repurchase Mandate.

An explanatory statement giving certain information regarding the Repurchase Mandate is set out in the Appendix to this circular.

LETTER FROM THE BOARD

NON-RECOMMENDATION OF DISTRIBUTION OF FINAL DIVIDEND FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2008

As audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the profit after tax arising from the business of the Company in 2008 was RMB661 million. The amount calculated in accordance with the PRC accounting standards was equivalent to the amount calculated in accordance with the Hong Kong accounting standards. According to the relevant provisions of the Articles of Association, 10% of the profit after tax for the year is intended to be drawn into the Company's legal reserve funds, which amounted to RMB66 million. The distributable profit of the year was RMB595 million.

As the Company had distributed an interim dividend of RMB0.052 (tax inclusive) per share for the period ended 30 June 2008 in an aggregate amount of RMB703 million, which had exceeded the distributable profit at the end of 2008, no final dividend will be recommended for distribution for the year ended 31 December 2008.

APPENDIX

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

In accordance with the Hong Kong Listing Rules, this appendix serves as the explanatory statement to provide you with requisite information reasonably necessary to enable you to make an informed decision on whether to vote for or against the special resolution to be proposed at the AGM, the A Shareholders' Class Meeting and the H Shareholders' Class Meeting for the granting of the Repurchase Mandate to the Board.

REPURCHASE MANDATE

Reasons for Repurchase of H Shares

The Board believes that the flexibility afforded by the Repurchase Mandate to repurchase H Shares would be beneficial to and in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders. Such repurchases may, depending on market conditions and funding arrangements at such time, lead to an enhancement of the net asset value per share and/or earnings per share of the Company. Such repurchases of H Shares will only be made when the Board believes that such repurchases of H Shares will benefit the Company and its Shareholders.

Registered Capital

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the registered capital of the Company was RMB13,524,487,892 comprising 3,943,965,968 H Shares of RMB1.00 each and 9,580,521,924 A Shares of RMB1.00 each.

Exercise of the Repurchase Mandate

Subject to the passing of the special resolution set out in the notice of AGM, the special resolution approving the granting to the Board of the Repurchase Mandate in the A Shareholders' Class Meeting and H Shareholders' Class Meeting respectively, the Board will be granted the Repurchase Mandate until the end of the Relevant Period (as defined in the special resolution in the notice of the AGM, special resolution in the notice of A Shareholders' Class Meeting and special resolution in the notice of the H Shareholders' Class Meeting). The exercise of the Repurchase Mandate is subject to the approval(s) of the SAFE and/or any other regulatory authorities as required by the laws, rules and regulations of the PRC being obtained and to the Company not being required by any of its creditors to repay or to provide guarantee in respect of any amount due to any of them (or if the Company is so required by any of its creditors, the Company having, in its absolute discretion, repaid or provided guarantee in respect of such amount) pursuant to the notification procedure under Article 28 of the Articles of Association.

The exercise in full of the Repurchase Mandate (on the basis of 3,943,965,968 H Shares in issue as at the Latest Practicable Date and that no H Shares will be allotted and issued or repurchased by the Company on or prior to the date of the AGM, the A Shareholders' Class Meeting and H Shareholders' Class Meeting) would result in a maximum of 394,396,596 H Shares being repurchased by the Company during the Relevant Period, being the maximum of 10% of the total H Shares in issue as at the date of passing of the relevant resolution.

- 14 -

APPENDIX

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Funding of Repurchases

In repurchasing its H Share, the Company intends to apply funds from the Company's internal resources (which may include surplus funds and retained profits) legally available for such purpose in accordance with the Articles of Association and the applicable laws, rules and regulations of the PRC.

The Company is empowered by its Articles of Association to purchase its H Shares. Any repurchases by the Company may only be made out of either the funds of the Company that would otherwise be available for dividend or distribution or out of the proceeds of a new issue of shares made for such purpose. Under PRC laws, H Shares so repurchased will be treated as cancelled and the Company's registered capital will be reduced by an amount equivalent to the aggregate nominal value of the H Shares so cancelled. The Company may not purchase securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for a consideration other than cash or for settlement otherwise than in accordance with the trading rules of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange from time to time.

GENERAL

The Board considers that there would not be any material adverse impact on the working capital and on the gearing position of the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is to be exercised in full at any time during the proposed repurchase period (as compared with the position disclosed in the latest published audited accounts contained in the annual report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2008). However, the Directors do not propose to exercise the Repurchase Mandate to such extent as would, in the circumstances, have a material adverse effect on the working capital requirements of the Company or the gearing levels which in the opinion of the Directors are from time to time appropriate for the Company. The number of H Shares to be repurchased on any occasion and the price and other terms upon which the same are repurchased will be decided by the Directors at the relevant time having regarded to the circumstances then prevailing, in the best interests of the Company.

The Directors have undertaken to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that, so far as the same may be applicable, they will exercise the powers of the Company to make purchases under the Repurchase Mandate in accordance with the Hong Kong Listing Rules, the Articles of Association and the applicable laws, rules and regulations of the PRC.

APPENDIX

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

DISCLOSURE OF INTERESTS

If as a result of the H Share repurchase by the Company, a substantial shareholder's proportionate interest in the voting rights of the Company increases, such increase will be treated as an acquisition for the purpose of the Takeovers Code. Accordingly, a shareholder, or group of shareholders acting in concert, could obtain or consolidate control of the Company or become obligated to make a mandatory offer in accordance with Rule 26 of the Takeovers Code.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, Chinalco, whose interest in the Company is notifiable under Part XV (Disclosure of Interests) of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Chapter 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong), held directly or indirectly approximately 41.82% of the Company's total registered capital. In the event that the Board exercised in full the power to repurchase H Shares in accordance with the terms of the Repurchase Mandate proposed at the AGM, A Shareholders' Class Meeting and H Shareholders' Class Meeting, the total interests of Chinalco in the total registered capital of the Company would be increased to approximately 43.08%. The Directors are not aware of any consequences which will arise under the Takeovers Code and/or any similar applicable law, as a result of any purchases to be made under the Repurchase Mandate. Moreover, the Directors will not make share repurchase on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange if such repurchase would result in the requirements under Rule 8.08 of the Listing Rules not being complied with.

None of the Directors nor, to the best of their knowledge, having made all reasonable enquiries, any of their associates (as defined in the Listing Rules) presently intends to sell H Shares to the Company under the Repurchase Mandate in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by the Shareholders and the conditions to which the Repurchase Mandate is subject are fulfilled.

The Company has not been notified by any connected persons (as defined in the Listing Rules) of the Company that they have a present intention to sell any H Shares to the Company, or that they have undertaken not to sell any H Shares held by them to the Company in the event that the Repurchase Mandate is approved by its Shareholders and the conditions to which the Repurchase Mandate is subject are fulfilled.
