ESG in Mining
How does ESG apply to the mining industry?
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) is a term used by socially conscious investors to evaluate corporate behaviour and non-financial performance indicators which include approaches to sustainable, ethical and corporate governance issues. Due to the very nature of the metals and mining industry, ESG has long been a focus for governments, NGOs, industry bodies and wider society concerned by the environmental and social impacts of the extractives sector. Over recent years, these concerns have led to the introduction of wide-reaching and robust ESG-focused regulations, codes and principles that mining companies are now obliged and expected to observe.
Examples of ESG-focused principles
The International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) is an international organisation focused on a safe, fair, and sustainable mining industry. ICMM developed 10 Mining Principles that their 27 member companies must meet for membership. These principles help investors access information on how companies manage environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues. To demonstrate their ESG commitment, companies must adopt best practices and procedures. They must also enhance their monitoring and reporting. Additionally, they need to factor ESG considerations into their strategic decision-making.
