Biodiversity Management

The systematic planning and implementation of measures to avoid, mitigate, and remediate impacts of mining on biological diversity across all phases of mine development and operation. Biodiversity management programs integrate survey data, impact assessment, avoidance and minimisation strategies, rehabilitation, and long-term monitoring. In bauxite mining, where mining occurs in biodiverse tropical landscapes, biodiversity management is a core environmental obligation, addressing flora, fauna, aquatic ecosystems, and ecological corridors required by regulatory approvals and community commitments.
