“Resilience, Leadership, and Breaking Barriers in Mine Rescue” Reading about Diamonds in the Rough (DITR) and their incredible work supporting women in mine rescue has me reflecting on the power of diversity, leadership, and community in the mining industry. DITR’s all-female mine rescue team has been a driving force in shifting the landscape of a traditionally male-dominated field. From competing at the International Mine Rescue Competition (IMRC) in 2018 as the first all-female team to inspiring three such teams to take part in 2024, their journey represents the profound impact of empowerment, inclusion, and resilience. The courage to step into roles historically out of reach—and thrive—underscores what’s possible when industries like ours invest in equity and belonging. Programs like DITR don’t just train; they transform. They prepare women to lead, to innovate, and to challenge the boundaries of what’s possible underground and above. At Newmont, we share these values: building inclusive teams, strengthening communities, and fostering leadership at all levels. While we may not have directly contributed to this milestone, stories like this inspire us to double down on our own efforts to create a more inclusive mining industry. To all the women making waves in mine rescue and mining leadership, thank you for paving the way for a stronger, more equitable industry. Your work is a reminder of how leadership and resilience can redefine the future. #Leadership #InclusiveExcellence #WomenInMining #MineRescue #Resilience #DiversityMatters #CommunityImpact

We are thrilled that our Pro Bono initiative, TIL+, has a project on TV! 📺 This viz for Grand Canyon Trust has made it to CBS News and has also been featured on the Grand Canyon Trust website. ➡️https://lnkd.in/ebr_gq-y Thanks to Tyler Ha, Luke Bennett and Cecily Santiago our amazing consultants. Grand Canyon Trust (GCT), a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the Grand Canyon and its ecosystems. GCT collaborates with local Native tribes and works to protect the region from industrial threats like mining. The goal was to create an infographic dashboard that raises awareness about the environmental impacts of uranium mining near the Grand Canyon, focusing on water quality. Key findings revealed that mine wastewater contains high levels of uranium, arsenic, and lead, and significant amounts of water are extracted in this arid region, raising concerns about the uncertain impact on the Coconino aquifer due to data limitations. "I also think understanding the audience was really helpful for this project and thinking of ways to relate unintuitive numbers/data for the general public - I think this was why our comparisons to the safe drinking amount, the water droplets, and relating the water pumped to how many people that could serve, etc. were very effective." - Luke Bennett, The Information Lab US. #GrandCanyonTrust #Conservation #Nonprofit #Infographic #DataVisualization

Gender-sensitive approaches are vital to ensure mine action programmes properly consider the needs of different groups in a community and to ensure employment opportunities are equally available to all.

Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) is vital for sustainable mining. FPIC refers to the right of indigenous peoples to give or withhold their consent for any action that would affect their lands, territories or rights. "Free" means that indigenous peoples' consent cannot be given under force or threat. Well done Ok Tedi Mining Limited for employing the FPIC approach in your CMCA MLE Review.

The mineral endowment of a country is for the benefit of the people. Barrick strives to be the preferred mining partner to create value out of those resources on the ground. Responsible mining that supports, grows and sustains people is at the heart of the Barrick approach. We seek to use the development of a national resource and asset to catalyze the socio-economic upliftment of local people and diversify prosperous local economies that thrive long after the mine gates shut. These principles are formalised in our Sustainable Development Policy and our Social Performance Policy. These policies and further details regarding our approach to Community Development and Relations are available on our website. How we deliver this vision is guided by three key principles: 1️⃣ Partnership – We are firm believers in the principle of stronger together. Uplifting communities and driving development is not a task which can be achieved alone. It requires partnership and cooperation between all actors in the chain. Our model is to put local communities at the heart of discussions and the decision-making process, and we strive to help them build capacity and resilience. Through these efforts we establish trust, transparency, partnership and ultimately the social license needed to continue operating. Beyond our own contributions, we also seek to attract and catalyze additional funding to create scale for projects, and multiply positive impacts. We do this by working to identify, align and contribute to local, regional and national development plans, and partnering with public and private sector specialists to maximize development. 2️⃣ Sharing the benefits – Mines require a large pool of workers and a wide range of goods and services to operate efficiently. We see these needs as an opportunity to share and create value. We do this by focusing on hiring and buying practices that leverage these needs to inject money into local communities and our host countries, and invest in foundational human rights that prepare individuals to access these opportunities. Over time, this builds capacity and creates additional opportunity. 3️⃣ Open, honest and patient communication – No one knows the needs and wants of the community better than the communities themselves. We take time to build relationships grounded in trust and put them at the center of our community support decision-making processes.
