How do you measure sustainability in mining? This question is at the heart of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the first sector standard dedicated to mining. Launched in January 2026, the GRI 14 framework aims to help mining companies consistently report on their environmental, social and economic impacts.
In this episode of Energy Technology: Industry Insights, we explore what the new standard means for the industry under growing scrutiny, from how “material” issues are defined to whether the reporting framework can adapt to mining’s technological and regulatory changes.
Sharing her insight is GRI’s Head of Mining, GRI’s Mining Director, Gailika Buitrago, who explains how the standard was developed and what it means for transparency and accountability across the sector.
