ESG – Sustainability

Our ongoing commitment to the ethical
sourcing of Tantalum

We strive to be a partner of choice in all areas of environmental, social and governance (ESG) for our employees, our customers, and our communities.

From our leadership team to our front-line operations, excellence in ESG is our shared goal. It is integral to our business, embedded in our core values and enables us to generate value for our stakeholders ethically and sustainably.

Our approach to sustainability has many parts. It begins with our company-wide culture and a sharp focus on protecting the health and safety of our people, our environment and local communities.

We also look to our framework of corporate policies and commitments to guide our behavior.

Embodied in GAM’s Environmental, Health and Safety Policy, we are taking a principled approach to sustainability.

Our strategic priorities and goals extend beyond compliance. We embrace internationally recognized standards across a range of ESG and sustainability frameworks, which inform and guide our strategy and actions.

Our active membership and in the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) and Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), is an essential component of our program. Our conformance with the RMI ESG 2021 global standard is fundamental to our business and our customers.

Together, with our ISO14001 certifications for environmental management and ISO9001 certifications for quality assurance (ISO9001), these elements reflect our ongoing commitment to meet, and where it makes business sense, to surpass the expectations of our stakeholders.
