Mantos Blancos and Mantoverde, both in Chile, are the latest mines to join the Copper Mark – an assurance framework to promote responsible practices.

Within one year, Mantos Blancos and Mantoverde, both owned by Toronto-listed Capstone Copper, will be assessed and independently verified against 32 responsible production criteria, including environmental management, greenhouse gas emissions, human rights, community health, safety and development, and governance.

“Copper is essential to a low-carbon future, and so it is incumbent upon us to ensure that we supply this critical natural resource in as sustainable a manner as possible,” said Capstone CEO John MacKenzie.

The Copper Mark already covers two of the biggest copper mines in the world, five producers in the biggest copper-producing region in the world, and six of the ten biggest companies producing copper. Over 20% of global copper is now produced by Copper Mark-assured sites.
