• Biodiversity Management Standard – Coeur is committed to protecting, restoring, conserving and managing natural capital, biodiversity and ecosystem services through responsible development and environmental stewardship, as well as transparently reporting on performance and key nature-related metrics.

• Climate resilience – The Company took further action to improve its climate resilience and reporting, including incorporating consideration of carbon emissions and the potential effects of climate change into long-term planning and remains on track to achieve Coeur’s goal to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) net intensity emissions by 35% by the end of 2024.

"Advancing ESG principles aligned with long-term value and maintaining Coeur’s position as a leader in safe and responsible mining remains our highest priority, reflecting our commitment to Pursue a Higher Standard, as highlighted in our 2023 ESG Report. As the global shift towards clean, renewable energy and increasing technological advancement gains momentum, we take pride in our role as a supplier of vital minerals for the future," stated Mitchell J.
