| Sustainability, creating opportunities |
|
| This is the sixth year in which we have produced a sustainable development report,
released as part of our annual report. The report is our principal means of sharing
information with our wide stakeholder base on the performance and efforts to increase
the economic and social value from mining what is ultimately a finite mineral resource,
while minimising the adverse impacts of our operations on the natural environment. |
| |
| OUR APPROACH TO REPORTING |
| A summary of our programmes |
| Our 2007 sustainable development report provides a summary of our integrated social,
environmental and economic programmes and results for the year, and identifies the sustainable
development challenges and opportunities for the future. |
| |
| OUR BUSINESS & SUSTAINABILITY CHALLLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES |
| Sustainability presenting business opportunities |
| Sustainability issues may present many business opportunities for Anglo Platinum. Honda Motor
Corporation will launch its FCX clarity fuel cell car in the United States in 2008. |
| |
| CARING FOR OUR PEOPLE |
| Principle of zero harm |
| We offer development opportunities to our employees to improve their skills, improve their lives and
ultimately allow them to reach their full potential. We are committed to the principal of zero harm. |
| |
| MANAGING OUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT |
| Focus on safety and skills |
| Mining inherently has a certain direct impact on the environment through the operational footprint of
shafts, plants, tailings, dams and other infrastructure. Management systems are in place to
minimise this footprint. |
