Kennecott Eagle Minerals: Sustainable Development

Sustainable Development

Mining may seem inconsistent with the concept of sustainable development, given that we excavate ‘non-renewable’ resources. However, mining supplies the minerals and metals that are essential to our quality of life and to the future of a green economy. Mining makes a significant contribution to the social and economic prosperity of our shareholders, and the communities in which we operate.

Kennecott Eagle Minerals recognizes the long-term benefits of integrating sustainable development principles into our decision-making and management processes. Many principles of sustainable development are incorporated into our existing Health, Safety and Environment, and Communities Policies.

By anchoring our business strategy and daily practices to align with the concept of sustainable development, we are able to strengthen our operations and products and provide lasting benefits for our employees and stakeholders. These benefits include lower risks, improved efficiency, and a superior reputation.
