This represents a notable increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the company's ongoing operational activities. In 2022, the total emissions were about 180,502,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 180,502,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 at 8,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 at 646,744,000 kg CO2e. The trend shows a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for the majority of their carbon footprint across the years. Resolute Mining has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect the broader industry context, where mining companies are increasingly scrutinised for their environmental impact and are expected to adopt more robust climate strategies. Overall, while Resolute Mining's emissions data highlights the scale of their carbon footprint, the absence of clear reduction targets suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
