Aquila Nickel Group places environmental responsibility at the core of its operations. We minimize impact through safe, responsible mining practices and the use of eco-friendly technologies to reduce emissions, waste, and water use. We conduct thorough environmental assessments, promote awareness of renewable energy, and implement land rehabilitation and reforestation to restore biodiversity. All efforts align with global environmental standards to ensure sustainable and responsible development.
One of our primary responsibilities is to promote and protect the health and safety of our employees, contractors, and communities is our top priority. We maintain a safe, risk-free work environment by enforcing strict safety protocols, ensuring all personnel are fit for duty, and prohibiting substances that could impair judgment. Regular risk assessments, safety drills, and health monitoring are conducted, and no task proceeds if it compromises safety.
Aquila Nickel Group is committed to upholding human rights in line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. We respect the traditional rights of Indigenous communities, including Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), and ensure our operations protect human dignity and freedom. We strictly prohibit forced or child labor and actively engage with stakeholders to identify and address any potential human rights impacts.
