ICMM’s Mining Principles define good practice environmental, social and governance requirements for the mining and metals industry.
Bringing together 28 mining and metals company members and over 35 national, regional and commodity association members, we have a truly global reach.
Our members recognise that they have a responsibility to promote and support sustainable development wherever they work by proactively engaging with communities to build strong relationships based on trust and respect: minimising negative impacts and maximising benefits. All company members are represented on our Council of CEOs (our highest decision-making body) and on our Principal Liaisons Committee – alongside two nominated representatives from our association members. This maximises opportunities for collaboration among mining and metals industry leaders.
