The Climate-Smart Mining Initiative identifies four pillars that consist of thematic building blocks and cross-cutting themes that are at the core of a more responsible and sustainable mining sector. They are designed to be comprehensive and help in the identification of climate-smart practices throughout the value chain from mine to end-use. CSM supports the sustainable extraction, processing and recycling of minerals and metals needed to secure supply for low-carbon technologies and other critical sectors by creating shared value, delivering social, economic and environmental benefits throughout their value chain in developing and emerging economies.
