Sirius Resources NL's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from IGO Limited

Sirius Resources NL, headquartered in Australia, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. The company is a current subsidiary of IGO Limited, which may influence its climate commitments and reporting practices. While Sirius Resources NL has not established its own reduction targets or climate pledges, it is important to note that emissions data and performance metrics may be inherited from its parent company, IGO Limited.
