Gold mining, for much of its history has been male dominated but this is starting to change. Whilst there is a lot more that needs to be done to achieve gender parity, our Members are working on attracting and retaining a more diverse workforce.
Gold has a unique story when it comes to climate change as almost all emissions come from mining. So if we can decarbonise the mine site, we can look to decarbonise the whole gold value chain, reinforcing gold’s potential as a climate-risk mitigating asset.
We worked with our members and collaborated with key industry stakeholders to set out a framework that addresses key environmental, social and governance issues for the gold mining sector.
The United Nations’ climate change conference, COP26, finally wound up after two weeks in Glasgow and an extended period of ‘overtime’, as the world’s governments haggled over the exact nature of their commitments.

Today, we announced that all of our Members, the world’s most forward-thinking gold miners, have committed to reporting their positions and progress on climate-related risks in line with the recommendations of Taskforce for Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
