Metro Mining's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Metro Mining reported total carbon emissions of approximately 20,350,000 kg CO2e, comprising about 20,323,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions and around 27,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This marked an increase from 2021, when the company emitted about 11,808,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 11,803,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 5,000 kg CO2e. Despite the rise in emissions, Metro Mining has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at mitigating their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As a mining company headquartered in Australia, Metro Mining operates within an industry increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, highlighting the importance of establishing clear climate commitments and reduction strategies to align with global sustainability goals.
