Sirios Awarded UL ECOLOGO® Certification for Responsible Mineral Exploration
March 09 2022 - 8:00AM
In keeping with its commitment to sustainable development, the
Sirios Resources Inc. (TSX-V: SOI) team is proud
to announce that it has received the UL 2723 ECOLOGO® Certification
for Mineral Exploration Companies (“UL ECOLOGO® Certification”).
Obtaining this independent certification demonstrates Sirios'
desire to continue to conduct its operations according to the
highest standards in terms of environmental, social, economic and
governance practices.
The UL ECOLOGO® Certification was developed by
UL, an independent certification body, based on the work done since
2012 by the Chair in Mining Entrepreneurship of the Université du
Québec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue in collaboration with the Quebec
Mineral Exploration Association (QMEA). The standard, recognized by
government authorities and by the industry, aims to assess and
promote responsible practices by mineral exploration companies and
their contractors.
The certification process involves verification
by an independent auditor of multiple indicators related to
environmental practices, health and safety, community relations,
First Nations relations, business ethics and transparency, economic
efficiency, contribution to local economy, etc.
Following the achievement of the UL ECOLOGO®
Certification, Dominique Doucet, President and CEO of Sirios,
commented: “Obtaining this certification demonstrates to our
stakeholders and investors that an independent and world-renowned
third party has recognized the quality of our activities and
procedures, following a careful evaluation process. This is
something to be proud of. That said, we do not intend to stop
there, and we intend to continue to perfect our practices as our
work progresses. The development of sustainable and responsible
projects has always been and will remain at the heart of Sirios'
mission.”
Sirios Resources would like to thank the QMEA
and the team of their coaching program for their collaboration. We
greatly appreciate their support and guidance and are grateful for
their contribution to the success of our efforts.
