The Global Tailings Review convened by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), and the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) launched the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management. The Standard was developed by a multi-disciplinary Expert Panel, with input from a multi-stakeholder Advisory Group. The Standard is further informed by existing best practice and findings from past tailings facility failures. In addition, the Standard underwent a public consultation and commenting period.
The Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management, which is the outcome of the Global Tailings Review process, is an important milestone towards the ambition of zero harm to people and the environment from tailings facilities. Underpinned by an integrated approach to tailings management, the Standard aims to prevent catastrophic failure and enhance the safety of mine tailings facilities across the globe.
