Big River Gold Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Sercor Ltd.

Big River Gold Limited, headquartered in Australia, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Big River Gold Limited, and its climate commitments and reduction initiatives are not explicitly detailed. However, emissions data may be inherited from its parent company, Aura Minerals Inc., at a cascade level of 1. This means that while Big River Gold Limited does not have its own emissions data, it may align with the broader climate strategies and performance metrics of Aura Minerals Inc. Additionally, performance data may be sourced from Sercor Ltd. at a cascade level of 3, which could provide insights into the company's environmental impact and initiatives. Despite the lack of specific reduction targets or commitments, the company is part of an industry increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon reduction. In summary, while Big River Gold Limited does not currently disclose its own emissions data or specific climate commitments, it is positioned within a corporate structure that may influence its environmental strategies through inherited data and performance metrics from related organizations.
