Sustainable Development Goals
Alignment with SDG’s
We are partners, facilitating collaborations, to achieve gains in sustainability. We are strong believers in the power of the collective - through diversity and inclusive engagement, we can move forward much farther and faster toward our goals.
SDG’s 9, 11-12
We collaborate to advance solutions towards the elimination of mine wastes and working towards mineral companies embracing and supporting a circular economy. With new visions, appropriate evaluation and technological developments, there are possibilities for alternate use of waste raw materials - creating new products, driving local economic and infrastructure development while repairing past damages, and even preventing impacts from occurring in the first place.
SDG’s 6, 7, 13-15
We facilitate improvements in all of these areas through our advisory efforts and recommended preventative work, as well as through collaborations with suppliers providing specific technologies or services to create positive change in these environmental indicators.
SDG’s 5, 8, 10
We facilitate transparency, inclusivity, and collaboration, and provide direction for improving employee & stakeholder engagement and relationship developments within the scope of our work.
SDG’s 1, 2, 8, 16
Indirectly, we create positive impacts on the social spectrum by facilitating improvements in environmental performance, ensuring that stakeholders are engaged in project plans and developments, and their concerns are integrated into recommended solutions, and by facilitating collaborations with local business providers or the development of local capabilities to do so wherever possible.
