Item 1. Security and Issuer
This Amendment No. 36 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D originally filed by Rio
Tinto plc (“Rio Tinto”) and Rio Tinto International Holdings Limited (“RTIH”, and together with Rio Tinto, 7999674 Canada Inc., 46117 Yukon Inc. and 535630 Yukon Inc., the “Rio Tinto Companies”) on
November 3, 2006, and amended on September 12, 2007, October 26, 2007, January 7, 2008, April 10, 2008, October 30, 2009, March 4, 2010, July 7, 2010, September 13, 2010, December 14, 2010,
February 4, 2011, June 28, 2011, August 24, 2011, September 27, 2011, December 12, 2011, January 26, 2012, April 20, 2012, May 24, 2012, August 2, 2012, July 3, 2013, July 9, 2013,
August 14, 2013, August 28, 2013, January 13, 2015, September 14, 2020, April 9, 2021, January 25, 2022, March 14, 2022, May 18, 2022, August 25, 2022, September 1, 2022, September 6, 2022,
October 25, 2022, November 2, 2022, November 17, 2022 and November 25, 2022 (as amended and supplemented, the “Schedule 13D”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), relating to
the common shares, without par value (the “Shares”), of Turquoise Hill Resources Ltd. (formerly Ivanhoe Mines Ltd.), a corporation continued under the laws of the Yukon Territory, Canada (the “Company”).
The purpose of this Amendment is to report that on December 16, 2022, the Company, Rio Tinto and RTIH completed the transactions contemplated by the
Arrangement Agreement, dated September 5, 2022, by and among the Company, Rio Tinto and RTIH (as amended, the “Arrangement Agreement”). Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, on December 16, 2022, RTIH acquired all of the
issued and outstanding Shares that Rio Tinto or its affiliates did not directly or indirectly own (the “Minority Shares”) through a Plan of Arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) pursuant to Section 195 of the
Business Corporations Act (Yukon). As a result of the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement (the “Closing”), Rio Tinto became the beneficial owner of 100 percent of

This Amendment constitutes an exit filing of each of the Rio Tinto Companies in respect of the
Shares previously reported as beneficially owned by the Rio Tinto Companies.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented to include the following:
On December 14, 2022, the Supreme Court of Yukon issued a final order approving the Plan of Arrangement. On December 16, 2022, the Company, Rio Tinto and RTIH
completed the transactions contemplated by the Arrangement Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, RTIH acquired all of the Minority Shares. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the
Arrangement Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement, as of immediately following the Closing, Rio Tinto is the beneficial owner of 100 percent of the issued and outstanding share capital in the Company.
The foregoing description of the Arrangement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit J, which is
incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
The information relating to the beneficial ownership of Shares by each of the Rio Tinto Companies as set forth in rows 7 through 13 of the cover pages hereto
is incorporated herein by reference.
-7-
Rio Tinto beneficially owns 201,231,446 Shares, representing 100 percent of the outstanding Shares.
Such Shares are held by Rio Tinto indirectly through RTIH (as to 142,982,636 Shares, representing 71 percent of the outstanding Shares, which are also beneficially owned by RTIH), indirectly through 7999674 Canada Inc. (as to 21,510,000 Shares,
representing 10.7 percent of the outstanding Shares, which are also beneficially owned by 7999674 Canada Inc.), indirectly through 46117 Yukon Inc. (as to 15,228,810 Shares, representing 7.6 percent of the outstanding Shares, which are
also beneficially owned by 46117 Yukon Inc.) and indirectly through 535630 Yukon Inc. (as to 21,510,000 Shares, representing 10.7 percent of the outstanding Shares, which are also beneficially owned by 535630 Yukon Inc.).
The percentages of Shares reflected above and in the responses in Row (13) of the cover pages of this Schedule 13D with respect to each of the Rio Tinto
Companies are based on 201,231,446 outstanding Shares as of September 30, 2022, as disclosed by the Company in its Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation for the period ended September 30,
2022 attached as an Exhibit to the Company’s Report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022.
In addition, with respect to each of the Rio Tinto Companies, each of the Rio Tinto Companies shares voting power and dispositive power with respect to the
Shares beneficially owned by such person.
Except as disclosed in this Schedule 13D, none of the Rio Tinto Companies beneficially owns any Shares or has
the right to acquire any Shares.
Except as disclosed in this Schedule 13D, none of the Rio Tinto Companies presently has the power to vote or to direct
the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition of any other Shares which they may be deemed to beneficially own.
Except as disclosed in this Schedule
13D, none of the Rio Tinto Companies has effected any transaction in the Shares during the past 60 days.
To the best respective knowledge of the Rio
Tinto Companies, no other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares beneficially owned by the Rio Tinto Companies.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
