May is #CleanAir Month!

#ASGM is the largest polluter/emitter of mercury on earth. Mercury harms our air, animals, and people and is a global pollutant.

Together, we can innovate and create opportunities with #ASM communities to #MakeMercuryHistory. @minamataMEA @UNIDO

Team @artisanal_gold had an excellent first day at the @OECD 2023 Forum on Responsible Mineral Supply Chains in Paris. #OECD

Happy International #Francophonie Day! #ASGM

[Artisanal Gold Council @artisanal_gold]

Thanks to all the MPs and senior govt officials who met with the AGC team this week.

We believe the future of the #ASGM sector is bright and that there is much that Canada can do to contribute. @karen_vecchio @LeahGazan

[Artisanal Gold Council @artisanal_gold]

We #love the #ASGM communities we work for and everyone who works to improve access to greater socioeconomic opportunities and environmentally sustainable practices.

Happy Valentine's Day from all of us at the Artisanal Gold Council. #valentinesday #gold #AGC #sustainable

@dstap_dstap Good questions Daniel. The benefits have to be clear to the miners and their communities or they won't participate. In the context of the stick and the carrot, the world has unfairly mostly applied stick. More carrot is needed.

A possible game changer for onboarding ASM gold into formal supply chains?

In the lead up to the LBMA's annual meeting in Lisbon, which has now begun, it was nice to have read CEO Ruth Crowell's words about artisanal miners in LBMA's 2022 Sustainability and Responsible Sourcing Report
