In 2023, Resolute Mining reported total carbon emissions of approximately 212,685 tonnes CO2e from Scope 1, 26,000 tonnes CO2e from Scope 2, and about 150,900 tonnes CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This brings their total emissions for the year to around 389,611 tonnes CO2e. Over the past few years, Resolute Mining has shown a trend in their emissions data. In 2022, their total emissions were about 827,244 tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 180,502 tonnes CO2e, Scope 2 at 8,000 tonnes CO2e, and Scope 3 at around 646,744 tonnes CO2e. In 2021, total emissions were approximately 683,387 tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 at 160,345 tonnes CO2e, Scope 2 at 6,000 tonnes CO2e, and Scope 3 at about 523,042 tonnes CO2e. Despite these figures, Resolute Mining has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions, it may not have formalised plans to reduce them in line with industry standards or frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Overall, Resolute Mining's emissions data highlights the need for ongoing monitoring and potential action to address their carbon footprint in the mining sector.
