(Justmeans.com / CSR News) - ICMM and GRI have launched new sustainability reporting guidance for the mining and metals sector, which is now available to download.

The GRI Mining and Metals Sector Supplement was unveiled at the Mining, People and the Environment conference held in conjunction with the annual PDAC convention in Toronto, Canada.

It consists of sector-specific guidance incorporating the GRI G3 Guidelines - the world’s most widely-used guidelines for reporting on economic, environmental and social performance.

Issues such as indigenous rights, resettlement, closure planning, and materials stewardship are now covered in the Supplement.

The aim of developing a Supplement is to enhance sustainability reporting in the sector, by creating a version of the G3 Guidelines that is specifically tailored to its needs.
