Jinchuan's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Jinchuan reported total carbon emissions of approximately 59,516,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,207,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 59,516,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 2,114,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This marked a significant reduction in Scope 1 emissions compared to previous years, where Scope 1 emissions were 3,961,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 21,725,000 kg CO2e in 2021. In 2022, Jinchuan's total emissions were about 23,850,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 3,961,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 64,739,000 kg CO2e. The company has consistently disclosed emissions across all three scopes, demonstrating transparency in its reporting. Despite these reductions, Jinchuan has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate commitments. The absence of defined reduction initiatives suggests that while emissions have fluctuated, a structured approach to long-term sustainability may be necessary for future progress.
