Global standards, guidance, and documentation relating to risk management

Key organisations for the GISTM and other standards on tailings management

The International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) co-convened the Global Tailings Review to establish an international standard for the safer management of tailings storage facilities - this is the GISTM.

The standard can be downloaded here, and the International Council on Mining & Metals (ICMM) Conformance Protocols for the GISTM can be downloaded here.

The Canadian Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) standard is very comprehensive and a number of related guides to TSM can be found on the MAC website here.
