Consultation Report

The Global Tailings Review presented a draft Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management for public consultation in late 2019 to invite feedback from stakeholders.

The draft was made available in seven languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese and Russian, and the public consultation ran from the 15th November 2019 until the 1st January 2020.

Participation in the consultation process was facilitated via email, an online portal, a number of webinars and through a total of 21 workshops in Australia, Chile, China, Ghana, Kazakhstan and South Africa. More than 600 individuals and organisations provided feedback.

The Global Tailings Review team commissioned Traverse, an independent organisation specialising in consultation delivery, analysis and reporting to manage the consultation data from the online responses and the in-country workshops.
