Developed a Sustainable Mining Charter and guidelines for a mine to develop and implement a sustainability strategy specific to its requirements.
With a commitment to responsible and sustainable business practices, the client, a global leader in aluminium and copper production, aimed to implement sustainable mining practices across its operations. To support this ambition, the client engaged Xynteo to co-create a Sustainable Mining Charter (SMC) that goes beyond statutory requirements for their bauxite and coal mines.

The initiative
The key objectives for the engagement:
- Develop a holistic document that goes beyond compliance and operational excellence
- Provide an implementation approach for mining teams based on mine-specific factors
- Create a mine-level scorecard to evaluate sustainability performance
- Incorporate frameworks for sustainable land use
Implementation of the Sustainable Mining Charter will demonstrate the client’s commitment to responsible mining practices and can act as a blueprint for the industry.
Xynteo’s role
- Research and analysis: Conducted secondary research on existing materials and best practices, facilitated workshops using various tools (systems mapping, backcasting, concept canvas), consulted subject matter experts to understand key challenges and develop actionable frameworks
- Document development: Created a two-part Sustainable Mining Charter with frameworks, approaches, and implementation guidance, designed a sustainability implementation roadmap for mine-specific strategies
- Stakeholder engagement: Conducted training and orientation workshops for mining teams, identified and trained Sustainable Mining Champions for charter implementation.
