1. Developing Industry Based Voluntary Initiative Towards Sustainable Mining Improve Mining Industry’s Reputation Eurasia MeNa Mining Summit Turkey 16-17 May 2012

2. Sustainable Mining Corporate Social Responsibility “Reputation Drives Value”

3. Mining impacts our everyday lives not only from economic and employment perspective, but in our day-to-day living. From mining come the highways, electrical and communications networks, clean- energy technologies, housing, automobiles, consumer electronics and other products and infrastructure essential to modern life. Nature of the Mining Industry

4. Mining, by its very nature, disturbs land, air and water systems to some degree. People expect the mining industry to operate in a way that respects the environment and society. The challenge for mining companies is to find, extract and process metals and minerals while disrupting these systems as little as possible. Challenges

5. The industry must therefore be responsible for more than finding and extracting ore at a profit. We believe that the industry and the people share a common interest in making sure mining takes place responsibly, in a way that creates economic opportunities, respects community interests, protects the environment and ensures public heath and safety. Challenges

6.  Protecting the environment and workers are key goals of today’s modern mining industry and the health and safety of its workers is a core value.  It is important for mining facilities to apply sustainabilty principles, adhere to strict regulatory standards and socially responsible mining practices while continually develop new technologies.  Mining companies want their operations to do more than just follow the letter of the law.  Develop and continually improve Industry standards and ahere to them Goals

7.  Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative  Global Reporting Initiative  ICMM Sustainable Development Framework  IFC Performance Standards on Social and Environmental Sustainability  OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises  United Nations Global Compact  Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights  MAC – TSM Voluntary Initiative International CSR Standards Mining companies follow many voluntary standards and frameworks as part of their international corporate social responsibility:

8. It is foreseen as best: mining association of the country establish voluntary based industry standards and Mining companies should participate, measure their performance and publicly report In Turkey : Miners’ Association of Turkey should take this task to develop and manage the initiative How to Achieve

9.  The leading mining association of the country establishes a system  Set industry CSR standards to comply with  Develop guidance, principles and decleration  Establish key performance indicators  Set targets  Companies Measure their performance and report scores  Periodical external verification  Recognize best performers  The mining association manage and maintain the system  Mandotary for member companies to participate How to Achieve - Mechanism

10. A voluntary initiative: Towards Sustainable Mining spearheaded by MAC to help the industry improve its performance.  The initiative helps member companies manage their corporate responsibilities for social and environmental sustainability.  As a condition of membership in MAC, members must participate in TSM. Members must subscribe to a set of guiding principles backed by specific performance indicators that member companies report on annually.  The reported results are externally verified every three years and reviewed by the TSM Community of Interest Advisory Panel Example (Mining Association of Canada)

11. A voluntary initiative Peformance of member companies are measured against defined KPI’s Example Performance Measures & Protocols

12. Community of interest Advisory Panel Under development Future current TSM Principles Policy Formwork Defining Performance Indicators Tailings Management Crisis Management and Planning Safety and health Water and Mining Energy & GHG Emissions Management Committies Outreach Biodiversity conservation Management Mine Closure Performance Reporting Reporting Guides Performance Measurement System Verification System Assessment Protocols Technical Guidelines TSM Architecture

13. TSM Performance Element Measures a Company’s Management Systems for... Tailings Management Dealing with tailings, the materials left over after valuable minerals and metals have been separated from ore Energy Use and GHG Emissions Management Using less energy and releasing less greenhouse gas Community Outreach Maintaining dialogue with communities affected by the company’s operations Crisis Management Planning Being prepared for all potential crises Biodiversity Conservation Management Conserving wildlife in and around the facility Safety and Health Protecting the safety and health of the company’s workers, contractors and visitors
