The Global Tailings Standard (GISTM) assists mines to integrate all aspects of tailings dam engineering, including Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors. The standard encourages greater involvement by communities and stakeholders, including the world’s major investor bodies.
Adriaan Meintjes, Principal Geotechnical Engineer at SRK Consulting South Africa shares his views regarding the GISTM and the importance for mining companies and bodies to adhere to it. SRK has prepared five articles covering diverse aspects of compliance from water management, social engagement, to emergency preparedness plans. These articles discuss how SRK aims to ensure alignment and integration of safer and more responsible mining.
