ICMM is a unique industry body. We are not a lobby group or trade association, but a global leadership organisation for sustainable development. We judge our success by our contribution to creating a safe, just and sustainable world through responsibly produced metals and minerals.
Each of our company members – which together account for one third of the global industry – commit to implementing the Mining Principles as a condition of membership. These principles are neither static nor do they represent the ceiling of our ambition. We are always challenging ourselves to go ever further in setting the highest of standards for responsible mining, and for delivery.
