Shandong Gold Mining Co's reported carbon emissions

In 2021, Shandong Gold Mining Co, headquartered in CN, reported greenhouse gas emissions with an intensity of approximately 0.02851 kg CO2e per unit of revenue. However, specific total emissions figures were not disclosed, and the company did not specify the scope of these emissions (Scope 1, 2, or 3). Currently, Shandong Gold Mining Co has not established any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of publicly available commitments towards reducing carbon emissions. This absence of defined climate initiatives places the company in a challenging position within the mining industry, where increasing pressure for sustainability and transparency is prevalent. As the industry evolves, it will be crucial for Shandong Gold Mining Co to develop and communicate clear climate commitments to align with global sustainability goals.
