Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. (with its subsidiaries, "Triple Flag" or the "Company") (TSX:TFPM, TSX:TFPM.U) today announced the publication of its 2021 Sustainability Report, showcasing the Company's sustainability approach, governance and performance.
The report is available to view on under the ESG section of the Company's website at www.tripleflagpm.com.
This is the Company's second Sustainability Report prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative ("GRI") Standards 'Core option' and serves as our Communication on Progress for the United Nations Global Compact ("UNGC") in support of the Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs"). Disclosures are now aligned with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board's ("SASB") Metals and Mining Standard and the Asset Management and Custody Activities Standard.
The report details Triple Flag's direct and indirect activities and our approach to transparent business conduct striving for ESG excellence across our entire business. It also includes a Climate Strategy developed in 2021 that is informed by recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures ("TCFD").
Shaun Usmar, Chief Executive Officer of Triple Flag, said:
"Sustainability is central to our approach to business at Triple Flag, which should be clear to readers of our second Sustainability Report as a publicly listed company, which we are publishing today" commented Shaun Usmar, Triple Flag Chief Executive Officer. "Our successful journey so far is the culmination of converting the founding ideas, hard work and ambitions of our talented team into a high-quality, gold-focused, emerging senior streaming and royalty company. Our company plays a fundamental role as a financial partner to the mining ecosystem and, for the small, non-core portion of our portfolio that is not comprised of precious metals, we prioritize metals that support the green energy transition. What sets us apart is our sustained efforts to innovate our offerings as partner-oriented capital providers to the mining sector, informed by our deep mining backgrounds and networks, challenging the status quo, and striving for excellence. We are extremely proud of our progress in 2021 and remain committed to our long-term goal of net zero emissions by 2050."
