Mining’s chance to lead

The mining industry has, on some levels, begun to do so. A number of companies have come forward to embrace principles such as revenue transparency and free, prior and informed consent (FPIC), which help ensure communities are involved in decisions about mining, their rights are respected and they are given adequate information about projects and impacts. Companies have also begun to look at how they use resources – water, most importantly – that communities need for their survival.
