We acknowledge the environmental impact of mining activities as inherent. In addition to adopting best practices, we strive for pioneering innovations and form partnerships to enhance our commitment to the responsible extraction of the metals and minerals essential for the world.
Energy & Climate Change
The world faces a critical challenge from climate change. Derock Mining’s stakeholders, including investors, are looking for measures to move towards a more resilient economy with low carbon emissions, while minimizing risks and maximizing social and economic opportunities. Derock Mining’s global Energy and Climate Strategy is based on scientific targets to decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It adopts an integrated approach, collaborating with governments and communities to expedite a fair transition to a low-carbon economy.
Water Stewardship
Access to uncontaminated and secure water is a fundamental entitlement of every human being. Extraction activities require water and may affect local water sources. Derock Mining’s Global Water Strategy directs our endeavors to comprehend common obstacles, decrease water-related hazards, and enhance our water management effectiveness. Derock Mining is shifting towards an approach that includes nature, recognizing mutual benefits and enhancing the health, welfare, and resilience of ecosystems and other shared natural resources.
Closure & Reclamation and Materials
Every business must monitor materials and waste that could potentially endanger people and the environment. Many activities throughout the lifespan of a mine involve the use of materials and the generation of waste, such as chemicals, mercury, and waste rock, which could pose a risk if not handled properly. Derock Mining has implemented strong management systems and controls to minimize and prevent potential adverse effects on people and the environment, while also reducing our long-term responsibilities over the entire lifespan of the mine.
