LARGO PUBLISHES 2022 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

Largo Inc. has published its sustainability report for the year ended Dec. 31, 2022, outlining its activities across its mining operation in Brazil and clean energy business in the United States.

J. Alberto Arias, chairman of Largo, commented: "We are immensely proud of Largo's accomplishments in 2022, which are guided by sustainable development best practices. In Brazil, this progress has specifically benefited local communities near our operational site and our clean energy business is expected to bring global positive impacts to the economy, people and the environment as it continues development."

He continued: "We issued our first climate change report in 2022, aligned with the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). We have also enshrined our respect for human rights and diversity in a new people and human rights policy and board and executive diversity policy, and will continue to formalize our commitments on critical sustainable topics such as biodiversity and procurement as we continue our ongoing sustainability efforts."

He concluded: "As we move forward in the year ahead, focus on transparency and accountability to the highest standards of safety and sustainability remain paramount. We look forward to continuing the development of our sustainability programs, creating local, regional and global sustainable development."

Largo's 2022 sustainability report has been compiled in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards, as well as Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) metals and mining industry standard requirements.
