Dendra: Is the Australian mining industry on target with ESG?

Just when the target feels in range, the technology to exceed it appears and expectations are amplified. This may be the mood of mining this decade, but it’s yet to deter the industry from trying.

The target is environmental, social and governance (ESG) success and there are myriad ways to measure it. What’s most important is that targets are set and plans are made to attack them. It might concern emissions reductions, water efficiency, community relationships, or plain old regulatory compliance.

Whatever the target, the ESG incentive is there – investor sentiment and public license to operate are two of the hottest commodities in mining, and businesses will do well to sustain them.

This whitepaper from Dendra Systems will take stock and compare ESG goals with actual performance in 2024, highlighting Liontown Resources as a key case study in sustainability.
