Sustainability Values

Calibre Launches its Five-Year Sustainability Strategy

Calibre’s Sustainability Strategy will be implemented in three phases:

• Setting the Stage (2022): alignment and standardization of our ESG practices across all operations, to reinforce our positive impacts on the economy, environment, and people
• Meeting Higher Standards (2023-2025): overall implementation of best practices, optimizing our operational processes
• Leading the Way (2026 and beyond): becoming a front-runner in sustainability among our peers

Our most material ESG objectives are encompassed in three strategic pillars.  These reflect the results of a broad internal and external consultation process, as well as international standards established for the mining sector and, specifically, the expectations set out in the World Gold Council’s RGMPs, which Calibre committed to in June 2021. Moreover, we have identified and incorporated specific United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to measure and drive our sustainability performance.
