Vedanta confirms that it has received a letter from Leigh Day making certain allegations about KCM's mining activities in Zambia. We are committed to fully investigating the matters alleged and we have sought further essential information from Leigh Day and their clients that will enable us to do so. Once we have completed that investigation, we will provide Leigh Day with a full response to their letter. Until we have done that, any court proceedings are premature and unnecessary and we continue to reserve all our rights.
All Vedanta's operating subsidiaries take the health and safety of their employees, the wellbeing of surrounding communities and the environment very seriously . Our subsidiaries are committed to ensuring that they operate in a safe and sustainable way for the benefit of all of our stakeholders.

DisclaimerThis press release contains "forward-looking statements" - that is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance, and often contain words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "should" or "will." Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. For us, uncertainties arise from the behaviour of financial and metals markets including the London Metal Exchange, fluctuations in interest and or exchange rates and metal prices; from future integration of acquired businesses; and from numerous other matters of national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business, competitive or regulatory nature. These uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different that those expressed in our forward-looking statements. We do not undertake to update our forward- looking statements.
