Transparency in mining sector is on the rise,
reveals new figures
Transparency in the mining and metals sector is on the
rise, according to new figures released by the International
Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) and GRI.
15 out of 18 companies obtained a G3 A + application
level. This means they reported on all the indicators
required in the GRI Mining and Metals Sector Supplement
and sought independent third party assurance. In 2009,
8 companies reported to this level.
The 2010 data from GRI reveals a 12% increase (from
103 to 115) in reporting among mining and metals companies
from the previous year. More than half (62) of these
reports now follow the sector specific guidelines.
