Sustainable Development

The future of the Australian mining industry is inseparable from the current global pursuit of sustainable development through resource management. Using the integration of economic progress and effective environmental management, the industry is committed to contributing to the sustained growth and prosperity of existing and future generations.

The Australian mining industry’s concept of sustainability is best described as “development, which meets the needs of the present without compromising the needs of future generations”. Companies that embrace sustainable development effectively create value by reducing their risk profile, improving productivity while sustaining access to the land, ore resources, capital markets and skilled people.

In the mining and metals sector, sustainable development means that investments in mining projects should be financially profitable, technically appropriate, environmentally sound and socially responsible.

Aurium is committed to the principle of sustainable development and playing our part in the wider global strategy.
