It is estimated that, as of 2020 , humankind has extracted 80% of all our planet’s gold. Sadly, a more accurate term would be “exploited”. We believe that how we mine the remaining 20% matters. Mining has a direct impact on the health of our planet and of the communities making a living from it. Unfortunately, it is estimated that only 0.005% of all mined gold has been mined fairly since 2015.
Good for the people.
Artisanal mining makes up 20% of all mined gold, and it is estimated that over 100 million people in around 80 countries depend on artisanal gold mining for a living. A majority of these groups do not own formal mining rights and the proper equipment, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation and compromising their environment due to the use of toxic chemicals.
