Capstone Copper Corp. (“Capstone” or the “Company”)
(TSX:CS) is pleased to announce that the Copper Mark has been
awarded to our Mantoverde and Mantos Blancos operations in
Chile.
The Copper Mark is a comprehensive assurance framework,
developed to ensure that value chain participants demonstrate best
practice in responsible production and contribute to the United
Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Copper Mark is a voluntary
program that independently assesses conformance with 32
environmental, social and governance requirements.
Capstone’s Chief Executive Officer, John MacKenzie, commented:
“I would like to congratulate our entire team on this esteemed
milestone. Responsible operating practices are a vital component of
our commitment to the environment, our employees, local communities
and governments, and must remain front of mind in everything we do.
We recognize our role to be a responsible producer of copper given
its critical role in supporting decarbonization and electrification
efforts, globally.”
Capstone’s SVP, Risk, ESG and General Counsel, Wendy King,
commented: “The Copper Mark serves as a powerful advocate for
transparency and accountability, and reinforces the values we place
on responsible, sustainable production. We take pride in the
achievements of our Chilean operations and are actively striving to
replicate this success at Pinto Valley and Cozamin.”
