Member Disclosures on Progress Towards Conformance with the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management
When it was published in August 2020, ICMM members committed to conform with the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management for all tailings facilities classified as ‘extreme’ or ‘very high’ consequences by August 2023, and all other facilities by August 2025.
This commitment galvanised immediate and sustained action by ICMM members, representing one third of the global mining industry. We are pleased to share the progress that companies have made so far. Links to relevant web pages can be accessed below and our latest communication on conformance with the Standard is available here.
