In 2024, Aeris Resources reported total carbon emissions of approximately 150,816,000 kg CO2e, comprising 55,371,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 95,445,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This represents a decrease from 2023, where total emissions were about 196,396,000 kg CO2e, with the same Scope 1 and Scope 2 figures. The company has consistently disclosed emissions data for these scopes, demonstrating transparency in its reporting. Aeris Resources has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of Scope 3 emissions data indicates a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company’s emissions intensity for various production categories, such as 1,300 kg CO2e per tonne for copper and 0.031 kg CO2e per ounce for tin, highlights its operational impact. Overall, while Aeris Resources has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of defined reduction targets suggests an opportunity for enhanced climate commitments moving forward.
