This Supplement identifies aspects of mining and metals companies’ operations that are significant to a discussion of sustainable development by companies in the sector, but which are not captured by the reporting elements and indicators in the 2002 Guidelines. This section briefly outlines the context for reporting in the sector and the broad overarching issues. The mining and metals sector includes exploration, feasibility, construction, mining and metal processing (including metal fabrication and recycling), and closure. Mining and metals form an integral part of modern society and industrial chains, and their activities and products interact with a wide range of groups.
