High River Gold Mines Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Nord Gold plc

High River Gold Mines Ltd., headquartered in Canada, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures in kg CO2e. The company is a current subsidiary of Nord Gold plc, which may influence its climate-related strategies and reporting. As of now, High River Gold Mines Ltd. has not established any documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of specific commitments may reflect a broader industry context where mining companies are increasingly pressured to disclose their carbon footprints and set ambitious reduction goals. Given the absence of direct emissions data and reduction initiatives, stakeholders may look to Nord Gold plc for insights into potential climate strategies and performance metrics, as emissions data and climate commitments may be cascaded from this parent organization. However, without specific figures or targets from High River Gold Mines Ltd., it is challenging to assess their individual climate impact or commitments.
