Sustainability is the core of our doing business, what guides our work, and base of operational management of our projects.
To create enduring value of our operations our sustainability objectives address the following:
• The need to mitigate our operations’ impact on the environment and the communities around them, including focusing on climate change, soil and earth moving management, water stewardship, nature, and mining tailings.
• Issues of societal responsibility, including ensuring the safety, health and wellbeing of our people, a diverse workforce, and addressing the needs and expectations of our host communities.
• The importance of sound governance across the Company.
