OUR WORK

Tailings dam liningICMM’s activities are aimed at strengthening performance and enhancing our contribution to sustainable development. Such a perspective allows us to work continually on assessing, minimizing and redressing impacts while strengthening the positive contributions that we offer to society – as well as others’ understanding of the result.

We have several work programs and over 20 projects, which have been developed to support the implementation of our sustainable development principles. Our work is conducted with the active participation of member companies, and in collaboration with relevant partners.
