Environmental, Social and Governance
At Brazilian Critical Minerals, we believe operating in a sustainable manner is essential to delivering the company’s core strategy and objective. Our sustainability strategy is based on the four sustainability pillars:
Sustainability Pillars:

- Protecting health and safety: health and safety are fundamental responsibilities we have towards our workforce and local community. We maintain robust safety measures in place.
- Creating economic benefit: To successfully explore and mine precious metals in the regions where we operate, it is critical that we share the benefits of such activities with the local communities.
