Session Details
The convergence of sustainability and finance is redefining what success looks like in mining. This session brings together perspectives on how sustainability is influencing the flow of capital. From mechanisms such as sustainability bonds and digital marketplaces that provide pathways for micro and artisanal mining, to the structuring of profitable exploration deals that build trust with governments and communities and then the wide integration of climate risk valuation that aligns long-term performance with investor priorities.
Speakers will address the barriers they faced in advancing these models, reflect on the financing and partnership options they weighed and explain why their chosen approaches offered the greatest sustainability impact. Participants will be challenged to consider what they should do differently in their own practices to align investment, governance and sustainability goals.
Together, these insights illustrate how sustainability is no longer a checkmark but a central factor in capital markets, offering practical pathways for mining to thrive while delivering long-term value for investors, communities and the environment.
