Rio Tinto's incoming chief executive Jean-Sebastien Jacques has been tipped to boost the miner's
stake in the vast Oyu Tolgoi copper mine in Mongolia when he replaces incumbent Sam Walsh
in July.
Mr Jacques, the current chief of Rio's copper and coal division, has hinted he will prioritise
improving the company's balance sheet and cost base as the miner navigates a crunch in the price
of many of the key commodities it produces.
But one London-based analyst says Rio will almost certainly look to boost its 33 per cent stake
in the Oyu Tolgoi copper deposit, considered the company's most exciting growth project.
Rio holds a 50.79 per cent stake in Canadian-listed Turquoise Hill, which owns 66 per cent of
Oyu Tolgoi, and broker Investec said mopping up the balance of the Turquoise Hill shares would
be a low-risk priority for the big miner given the strong competition for other Tier 1 copper
assets around the globe.

"Rio will be very interested in Tier 1 copper assets but it's a crowded field," Investec mining
analyst Hunter Hillcoat said. "The only specific target would be consolidation of Oyu Tolgoi and
I see it as buying out the balance of Turquoise Hill."
It is thought the miner could buy the balance of Turquoise Hill stock for about $US2.3 billion
($3 billion).
Mr Hillcoat said he expected the Mongolian government to retain its 34 per cent stake in Oyu
Tolgoi, although an election timed for June, just weeks before Mr Jacques takes the chief
executive role, will undoubtedly have a bearing on the timing of any potential move by Rio.

Confidence to move
Several landmarks in 2015 handed Rio the confidence to increase its stake in Turquoise Hill,
including the development agreement for the second stage of Oyu Tolgoi that was struck with
the Mongolian government in May and the $US4.4 billion debt package that was secured for the
mine expansion in December.

Mr Jacques' elevation to the top role at Rio surprised many in the market because iron ore
division boss Andrew Harding was seen as the most logical successor to Mr Walsh, who was
promoted to the top job three years ago after heading the iron ore unit.
With iron ore constituting about 90 per cent of Rio's earnings, the division remains hugely
significant in the company's commodity stable and Mr Hillcoat said he thought Mr Harding
might stay on in his current role despite missing out on the top job, given volatility elsewhere in
the resources sector.
"Andrew will be disappointed, I'm sure," Mr Hillcoat said. "But this is not the bull market it used
to be. Any new CEO role he could take on would likely involve trying to resuscitate a struggling,
debt-ridden, once-major-now-minor miner versus the comfort of running an existing world-class
operation."
In an internal email to staff on Friday, Mr Walsh emphasised the achievements during his tenure
as boss, which included $US1.8 billion in asset sales and generating cost reductions of
almost $US2 billion.
"We have delivered what we said we would. We have improved safety, we have lowered costs,
we have reduced capital and working capital, we have focused on cash, we have strengthened the
balance sheet and we have delivered returns to shareholders," Mr Walsh said.
"But perhaps most importantly, we are now all acting as owners of the business. I am seriously
proud of the value we have delivered together, and I look forward to seeing what's to come."
