Environmental financial assurance (EFA) is increasingly required for all kinds of industrial operations around the world, including metals operations. This summary paper outlines the findings from a study of the assurance requirements for metals operations. It covers common issues with current EFA requirements for metals operations in different jurisdictions around the world as well as recommendations to address them.

The study was carried out to complement a 2005 ICMM report which dealt with EFA requirements for mine closure and reclamation.
