Sustainability Reporting

In conjunction with Midas Gold’s Annual General Meeting, MGII released its 2014 Sustainability Report summarizing its efforts in respect of conservation; energy and waste reduction; health and safety; community involvement and engagement, and economic benefits. Reporting includes an assessment of Midas Gold’s performance using the internationally recognized “Towards Sustainable Mining” initiative for reporting as issued by the Mining Association of Canada. Highlights from our Stibnite Gold Project include planting more than 30,000 trees in the past four years; 100% reclamation of Midas Gold drill sites, plus an additional 8 acres of historically disturbed lands; 24 months with zero lost time or reportable safety incidents; and 36 months without a reportable spill. In respect of its contributions towards sustainability, Midas Gold established its second solar power system on site in 2014, significantly reducing fuel consumption and transportation; removed over 30 tons of scrap metal left by prior operators and recycled a third of that; and recycled more than 1,000 pounds of other materials related to its own activities and in support of local community events. During 2014, Midas Gold was actively engaged with the local communities on a number of fronts, including hosting more than 240 people on 29 different tours of the site for local residents; established a local community advisory board; appointed a majority of local directors to the board of Midas Gold Idaho, Inc.; and participated in, sponsored and supported numerous community events. Midas Gold also continued its focus on hiring locally and supporting local businesses, making a significant positive contribution to the local economy throughout the year.
