For the purposes of section 341 of the UK Companies Act 2006, the votes validly cast are expressed in the table as a percentage of Rio Tinto plc's total issued share capital (excluding shares held in Treasury) as at 8pm on 2 April 2025, being the time at which a shareholder had to be registered in the Company’s register of members in order to attend and vote at the annual general meeting. The number of shares in issue was 1,255,960,289 (excluding Treasury shares 1,253,972,387). EXHIBIT 99.2
Notice to ASX/LSE The Company notes that Resolution 22 ‘Authority to purchase Rio Tinto plc shares’ was passed with less than 80% of votes in favour. Shining Prospect (a subsidiary of the Aluminium Corporation of China “Chinalco”) voted against Resolution 22. Chinalco has not sold any of its shares in Rio Tinto plc and now has a holding of over 14% given its non-participation in the Company’s significant share buyback programmes. This places Chinalco close to the 14.99% holding threshold agreed with the Australian Government at the time of its original investment in Rio Tinto. In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2 copies of all the resolutions passed, other than ordinary business, will be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
