As part of its vision to define a socially and environmentally responsible mining sector overall by 2030, Mining 2030 will be seeking engagement on its framing and definition of legacy. Join this TDi Sustainability and Mining 2030 webinar on 16 July for an overview and more information on the Mining 2030 briefing document on legacy that will shortly be out for consultation. 

Register here.

Meet the panel:

– Gemma James, Head of Biodiversity and Nature at Chronos Sustainability
– Jill Cooper, Director of Responsible Investing at Orion Resource Partners
– Assheton Stewart Carter, CEO at TDi Sustainability
– Peter Whitbread-Abrutat, Founder and Director of Future Terrains International
– Erin Parham, Environmental Consultant

At the centre of the consultation will be a comprehensive definition of legacy developed by the Mining 2030 team with TDi. Currently, there is no agreed definition of legacy. A holistic definition of legacy is needed to encompass historic legacies, the planning and responsible closure of mines and setting positive future legacies from new mining and existing mining. The aim is then to identify how investors can support the industry to address negative legacies and create and sustain positive legacies.The speakers will explain the work and rationale behind the definition for legacy that has been developed. They’ll also outline the diagnostics that have been used – including the common regulatory, financial, governance and practical challenges affecting legacy, and the key success factors to achieve positive legacies, including good practice case study examples. The speakers will also evaluate the potential role of investors in supporting positive legacies including strategies such as new value generation opportunities from remaining legacy assets.

Who should attend?

– Investors in mining (at all stages of the value chain) who want to understand the role, opportunities and requirements of finance in achieving a socially and environmentally responsible mining sector.
– Any upstream, midstream or downstream stakeholders within the mining value chain who want to understand their role, opportunities and requirements in developing positive legacies.
– Standard-setting organisations with an interest in where this definition fits into current voluntary sustainability standards
– Anyone intending to comment on the public consultation documentation, who would like more information or who has questions they’d like to ask.
