What We Heard

Thank you to everyone who took part in Talison’s first Voconiq Local Voices Survey.

The feedback shared through the survey gave us valuable insight into what's important to people across the communities where we operate, and where we need to do better. We’re committed to listening and acting on what you’ve told us.

What the survey showed

The survey provided a snapshot of how people view Talison, our operations and our role in the region. The feedback reflected a range of perspectives across the communities we engage with and gave us valuable insight into what matters to the people who live and work alongside us.

What’s working well

Many respondents recognise Talison’s contribution to local employment and the regional economy, and value the role we play in supporting regional prosperity.

Where we need to do better

The feedback also highlighted some clear opportunities for improvement:

• Environmental management: concerns about noise, blasting vibration, biodiversity and environmental impacts remain the most common area of concern

• Visibility, transparency and responsiveness: while many respondents believe we listen, people want more information about our operations, how we’re managing environmental impacts and how feedback influences decisions

• Understanding our operations: awareness varies across communities and we need to do more to explain what we do and why

What we’re doing

As the first Local Voices Survey, the results give us a starting point to measure how perceptions change over time. The feedback also helps us understand where we can strengthen our relationship with local communities and be a better neighbour. We'll use what we've heard to:

• Improve communication about our operations, environmental management activities and community investments through newsletters, website updates and direct community engagement

• Be clearer about how community feedback influences our decisions and what we’re doing in response to concerns raised

• Continue improving our environmental management and share more about this work

• Help people better understand what we do and how we operate

We want your ongoing feedback

Your feedback helps us understand what's working and where concerns remain. We'll run another Local Voices pulse survey in the first half of next year to see how we're tracking and where we can improve.

In the meantime, if you have feedback, questions or enquiries, please contact us at gbcontact@talisonlithium.com.

HOW WE’RE TAKING ACTION: OUR 2025 – 2026 INITIATIVE ROADMAP

Your feedback is helping shape our actions. Over the past 12 months, we've launched a range of initiatives to reduce the impacts of our operations, strengthen environmental stewardship and improve transparency. The roadmap below highlights the progress made so far, along with the programs and monitoring activities planned across 2026 as we continue to respond to community priorities.
