Anglo American’s ICMM membership

Anglo American was one of the founding members of ICMM in 2001. Examples of engagement include the secondment of John Groom, then the company’s head of health, safety and environment to act as Chief Operating Officer during a recent transition period between two ICMM Presidents, and we have also in recent years provided the Chairmen of the Communications, Environmental Stewardship, Health and Safety Task Forces and the Resource Endowment working group.

Anglo American’s membership of ICMM is based on a commitment to be the leading mining company of choice and the determination that this can best be achieved by working for more sustainable patterns of development in both the countries and the communities in which we operate.
