Sustainability

Our Approach to Sustainability

Sustainable mining can only be achieved while also ensuring the health of our colleagues and communities. At Côté Gold, health, safety, and sustainability are not just standards requiring compliance – they are deeply held beliefs.
We are guided by a combination of industry frameworks to help us manage our impacts and maximize community benefits.

Towards Sustainable Mining

As a member of the Mining Association of Canada (MAC), IAMGOLD is required to participate in the MAC Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) initiative at all Canadian operations. IAMGOLD is committed to the TSM Guiding Principles and has adopted them at all its locations around the globe.

United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

Mine operators can make distinct and concrete commitments to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) by limiting environmental and social impacts, protecting employee and community health and safety, and promoting local economic development. IAMGOLD is committed to advancing the contribution to each of these goals within our host communities around the world. The Company reports on our contributions to the UN SDGs annually as part of our health, safety and sustainability reporting.
