We pride ourselves on upholding the highest standards of sustainable practices and working with Mining Partners who share Wheaton’s principles and values for environmental stewardship and social responsibility. We believe that mining plays a vital role in providing the commodities needed for the energy transition while contributing to the achievement of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
Although we are not involved in nor control decisions of our Mining Partners, we have a unique opportunity to influence and encourage our partners to operate in a responsible manner. ESG is an important factor in our due diligence process for new streaming opportunities, and once a stream is in place, we collaborate with our Mining Partners to improve outcomes for local communities and the environment.
Our approach and commitments are summarized through our comprehensive ESG policies and strategy, which align with the material topics that Wheaton either has an impact on or the activities Wheaton is involved in that have an impact on the environment and society.
