March 2007, Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC)
In early 2007, the PDAC developed a special publication that summarizes 36 national and international CSR codes, standards and tools. The resources in the publication were selected for their particular usefulness and value to the mineral exploration sector. The publication is divided into three sections. The first contains those resources of most practical use to companies, e.g., checklists and guides. The second section contains codes, standards and guidelines developed by international agencies (some of these are specific to the mineral industry; others are of more general application). The third section comprises background material that provides the context for sustainable development and CSR.
