Today MMG released its 2019 Sustainability Report, detailing our sustainability performance during the year ended 31 December 2019.
“Since the beginning, we have been firm in our commitment to mine for progress – pursuing sustainable development and good citizenship as a way of generating value for all of our stakeholders,” said MMG Chief Executive Officer Geoffrey Gao.
This year’s report includes:
- Our social investment, local business development and employment initiatives during 2019

“The social and economic benefits we provide through our operations, their supply chains and our products support our employees, shareholders, communities, consumers, regions and host countries to develop and prosper,” said Mr Gao.
Our 2019 Sustainability Report is aligned with MMG’s Sustainable Development Framework, which outlines our approach to health and safety, security, environment, social performance, human rights and other sustainability-related issues across the business.
