SUSTAINABILITY ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD (SASB)
SASB standards are designed to identify a minimum set of sustainability issues most likely to impact the operating performance or financial condition of the typical company in an industry, regardless of location.
For the first time, we present this Report considering the sustainability standards prepared by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) for the Metals and Mining sector, version 2018-10.
