Protection of the environment is a key aspect of our business and this philosophy is engrained in our culture. We aim to achieve a high standard of care for the natural environment in all the activities in which we engage.
OZ Minerals recognises that excellence in managing environmental responsibilities is essential to long-term success. Through effective management practices, we aim to ensure that our activities have the lowest possible impact on the environment.
All of our sites have environmental specialists available to monitor and provide advice to our site management teams. Extensive use is made of specialist consultants to ensure we have access to the best possible information on managing environmental aspects across our operations and projects in Australia and Asia.
Management of energy and our greenhouse gas emissions is becoming an increasingly important focus at all of our operations. Our Australian operations are registered on the Australian Government’s Greenhouse Challenge and Energy Efficiency Opportunities programs.
