ESG at Buckreef Gold

ESG SUSTAINABILITY

These are exciting times for the mining industry. We are an industry that can positively impact and collaboratively help develop local communities and host nations – at a time when companies, society and investors seek purpose and deliver ESG excellence.

ESG INVESTING

We firmly believe that superior investor returns, ESG & Sustainability go hand in hand together. Our Executive Team has solid long term practical experience and have recognized thought leadership in this area.

TRX Gold is also building a new mine, Buckreef Gold, during the start of the United Nations ‘Decade of Action’ for Sustainable Development Goals, and the mining industry’s role in achieving those SDGs is becoming more apparent and urgent each day. Our work will be framed in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals and we will report on our sustainability actions and achievements within this framework.
