−World Mining Congress – Mining, Ethics and Sustainability (all-day)Montreal, QC, CanadaAug 12 – Aug 14
One of the most significant developments in the 21st century has been the growing realization that there are dimensions to mining that go well beyond simply the profitable extraction of mineral resources. Mining can produce financial rewards for its investors and concrete benefits for the users of its products. Historically, however, those benefits have often been created while imposing heavy social, economic and environmental costs and few benefits on the locales, communities and societies impacted directly by mining operations.
It is now widely accepted that mining companies have ethical responsibilities that extend well beyond traditional financial and investor focused objectives and outcomes. Meeting these “non-traditional’ social, economic and environmental responsibilities is today essential to acquiring a “social license to operate”.+World Mining Congress – Mining, Ethics and Sustainability (all-day)
