ICMM is an international organisation dedicated to a safe, fair and sustainable mining and metals industry.

We serve as a catalyst for change; enhancing mining’s contribution to society. Every ICMM member company adheres to 10 Principles and 8 Position Statements on issues relating to sustainable development. Once the guidance to validate the performance expectations is complete, members will also be required to implement the performance expectations at the asset level.
