Message

from the General Manager Huānyíng I am delighted to welcome you to another edition of our Safety, Health & Environment Report. This year we present it to you in an exciting new format called the Sustainability Report. Our goal is to constantly advance our Integrated Management Systems, and to clarify our reporting structures for the public to be more aware and understand the practices that we at MYTCL have in place. Every year we share with our communities and partners from around the globe the activities that have been highlights of the year, as well as our challenges with safety, occupational health and the environmental conservation works we strive to sustain. We continue to feel it is important to display transparency in all that we have achieved, and to feature the many significant milestones and results of the past year’s expectations. MYTCL will persevere in 2015-16 to uphold a positive and mutually beneficial relationship with all our employees, and we will continue to work with local communities in order to actively seek new opportunities to support sustainable means of growth and development. This year’s report places special focus on the core subjects of our socially responsible business, identifies our fundamental practices and sets priorities for improvements in the years to come.

“This year’s Sustainability Report is a further example of the improvements we constantly strive to make in advancing Myanmar Yang Tse Copper Limited.”

•

Organisational governance – practicing accountability and transparency at all levels of our organisation; using leadership to create an organisational culture which uses core values of social responsibility when making business decisions.

•

Human rights – treating all individuals with respect; making special efforts to help people from vulnerable groups.

•

Labour practices – providing just, safe and healthy conditions for workers; engaging in two-way discussions to address workers’ concerns.

•

Environment– identifying and improving environmental impacts of our operations, including resource use and waste disposal.

•

Fair operating practices – respecting the law; practicing accountability and fairness in our dealings with other businesses, including our suppliers.

•

Community involvement and development – getting involved in the betterment of the local communities that our organisation operates in; being a good neighbour.

I look forward to another year of growth, incident free and prosperous for all of our company employees and for our neighbouring community villagers with whom we cooperate!

Gong Qingguo General Manager – MYTCL

THE SUSTAINABILITY REPORT Building Lifelong Value MYTCL provides a powerful catalyst for economic and social development, creating infrastructure and access to healthcare, education and other essential services while strengthening indigenous human capacity for sustainability.

8 | Sustainability Report


MYTCL is pleased to present this first Sustainability Report, entitled “Building Lifelong Value.” The title reflects our commitment to continuously create more sustainable business processes and more value for our stakeholders. Our history reminds us that future generations are perhaps our most important stakeholder. This change to the name of the Sustainability Report has been carefully made to deliver more of a representation of the international standards of the GRI, Global Reporting Initiative, which is used world-wide and published annually by companies willing to voluntarily show their transparency. Our report will follow many of the GRI guidelines, but will be more focused towards the public’s comprehension of our activities in a reader-friendly format. At MYTCL, we view our goal of achieving sustainable development as it is highlighted in definition by the World Commission on Environment and Development:

“ meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. ” As with our past SHE Reports (Safety, Health & Environment), this new design reflects our increasing commitment to all dimensions of sustainability, and it responds to concerns received from you, our employees, communities and other stakeholders over the past year. It also conveys how our stakeholder relationships and the interaction between the company, our employees and communities, our customers and suppliers, and so many others around the world are critical to the sustainability of our business. Building Lifelong Value describes how we are working to address the challenges of society now and in the future by implementing sustainability strategies. Through a detailed analysis of issues and risks, we have selected the highest priority sustainability topics to develop and report on. These priorities include protecting natural capital through environmental performance and resource efficiency, aggressively pursuing innovations that enable MYTCL to operate in a more sustainable manner, as well as investing in community and corporate social responsibilities that produce both economic value and sustainability improvements across several dimensions.

In this report, you will see that we are moving forward in many areas, but we still have much to do. We continue to emphasise a strong foundation in business ethics, personal values, performance and accountability that are essential to the growth of our business. We are more transparent about our processes and our results against stated goals. We are trending towards utilising the most up-todate reporting protocols and practices to improve our communication to you. Sustainability at MYTCL is not just about technical innovation and the environmental performance of our operations. It is a reflection of our actions every day at our work, in our communities and in our lives. It is about finding better ways to do everything required of us as a business. It is a journey of change; of business and personal growth and of finding new opportunities to impact society’s needs through our community and social development programs. As we move forward, it will be our constant endeavour to heed to concerns and to learn from our peers, measure our progress, and make ourselves transparent in our performance and accountable to our stakeholders through the use of this Sustainability Report and its content.

MYTCL has in place limits and a range of policies and procedures to monitor the risk in its activities and these are quarterly reviewed by an internal audit committee, as well as bi-annually during internationally completed SGS audits. MYTCL’s Risk Management Policy also sets out the framework for risk management, internal compliance

MANAGEMENT and control systems. This policy highlights that risk management is reinforced by an MYTCL key principle;

MYTCL recognises that commitment to risk management contributes to sound management practice and increasing community confidence in our performance, and is vital to our continued growth and success.

“ risk management contributes to the creation of sustainable value ”. There are several layers that assist in ensuring the appropriate focus is consistently placed on the risk management framework.

About MYTCL Life of Mine History

T

he Sabetaung and Kyisintaung (S&K) mine is an open-cut copper ore mine of 2 primary deposits that are located in the Monywa District of Sagaing Division in Myanmar. Established early in the 20th Century, west of the Chindwin River, the mine-site is approximately 40-minutes by road from Monywa and within a populated area of nearly 500,000 people. This semi-arid expanse offers about 700mm of annual rainfall, and where shrub covered rolling hills and Toddy palm trees dotting the landscape are the common scene. This is a legacy mining area that began in the early 17th century with artisanal mining of the region. In the 1950’s the S&K deposits began to be explored on a much larger scale and have developed into a mining enterprise today. The S&K mine has also evolved into a mining municipality working side by side a bountiful agricultural community.

About MYTCL

FROM MINING TO METAL

Sustainability Report

| 23


Copper from the Monywa deposits have been extracted from shallow underground workings and smelted since the ages of the Myanmar Kings. From 1957 to the early 1980’s, exploration by Myanmar agencies continued in cooperation with the United Nations, Japanese and Yugoslavian agencies.

THE GREEN METAL The Bio-Heap Leaching and Solvent Extraction-Electrowinning (SX-EW) process is an environmentally friendly way to economically produce high-grade copper from low-grade ore deposits, and is often refered to as the ‘green metal’. MYTCL’s Sabetaung and Kyisintaung project adheres to a strict zero-discharge operation, and all solution flows are recirculated to ensure that no effluence is discharged from the mine to outside of the lease area. After mining, the ore is stacked onto the heaps for leaching in two manners;

1.

Primary crushing and stacking incorporating the fine-screens removing plant to wash the ore containing too many fines and clay minerals.

2.

Ore is directly dumped by 100-tonne dump trucks directly onto the heaps. This is called Run of Mine dumping, or ROM dumping.

24 | Sustainability Report


About MYTCL

The processing of the ore to produce marketable copper involves the following three stages. • Heap Leaching and Agitation Leaching to dissolve the valuable copper from the ore. • Solvent Extraction to purify and concentrate the copper solution generated by leaching, and • Electrowinning to plate the copper metal as high grade cathode.

The Sabetaung South Pit was completed in March of 2013, and the sister Sabetaung Pit finalised in November of 2014. Today the Kyisintaung development is strategically mined and back filled into the void pits of Sabetaung.

CRUSHING, STACKING AND BIO-HEAP LEACHING The dimensions of each heap leach cell is 700 metres long and 80 metres wide, and is able to stack about 360,000 MT of ore at a four metre height, and about 500,000 MT at six metre heights, and are being managed up to an eight metre capacity.

The Allis-Chalmers 42-65 Superior Gyratory Crusher was erected by Svedala Arbra A.B. Sweden when the S&K Project was first established. Crushing ore down to a maximum size of 230mm passing the primary screen, oversized materials (+40mm) then convey to the secondary crushers and fine screening plant depending on the nature of the material.

Due to the limitation of throughput of the crushing and stacking section, run-of-mine ore is directly placed onto the leach cells by dump trucks. Dumped ore is spread out by bulldozers as necessary and contains both fine and coarse sizes. The entire stacking strategy is based on physical characteristics of mined ore, and evolves and changes as the ore characteristics themselves change as the mining progresses. Before installation of an irrigation pipe system the surface is ripped to 300mm depths by bulldozers.

Copper Ore is stacked by conveyor systems or by dumptrucks onto the heap cells and then prepared for irrigation. These drains and heaps are environmentally designed with safeguards preventing ground contamination.

26 | Sustainability Report

Ore characterisation is pre-determined from drilled chip samples sent to the metallurgical laboratory. The quality control personnel are assigned to supervise the process of selection, determining whether ore is going to be sent to crushing facilities for radial stacking, or for ROM dumping cells, as per the competency level of the ore. A continuous cell expansion program has been implemented for production targets. At present there are five functioning leach pads with 56 cells and another leach pad with nine cells near completion and constructed dates estimated for stacking in early 2015.


About MYTCL

The stacked ore is irrigated using either a network of pipes and low pressure sprinklers, called wobblers, or drip irrigators. A diluted sulphuric acid solution containing high levels of dissolved iron is used to extract the copper from the stacked ore. The acidic solution is formed naturally from the heaps by the accelerated weathering of some rocks, which contains pyrite, an iron sulphidic mineral. Naturally occurring bacteria catalyses this reaction, and consequently, the process is termed Bio-Heap Leaching. The base of each heap is lined with a minimum 300mm clay layer to create an impermeable environmentally safe barrier. Next, high density polyethylene elastic sheeting (HDPE) is heatwelded and laid into place according to design, and in turn covered by another clay liner to prevent copper solution losses, as well as to protect the acidic solution from seeping into the ground water system. Each heap is constructed on a slight slope, so that the solution containing the dissolved copper percolates down through the heaps to the liner and flows downhill into a series of collection

channels that drain into a system of plastic-lined ponds. The solution containing the highest copper grade is directed into the pregnant leach solution, or PLS pond. The lesser concentrated solution is recirculated back from an intermediate solution pond, or ILS, onto the heaps to increase the copper concentration. Once contained in the PLS pond, the solution is pumped to the solventextraction plant for further purification. Solution management to and from heap cells is strictly controlled on a daily basis. The foundations of the heaps are constantly monitored and checked for leaks, and measures are in place to pump out any stray solutions from beneath the HDPE before they have any opportunity to breach the protective clay base barriers. This design methodology not only protects the environment from potential impacts, but it also protects MYTCL’s liquid assets of the solution bearing precious copper.

Sustainability Report

| 27


SOLVENT EXTRACTION AND ELECTROWINNING: SX-EW Solvent Extraction involves the selective extraction of the valuable copper from the PLS into an immiscible organic phase, which consists of a complex organic extractant dissolved in high-flash point kerosene. These two types of solution are stirred and allowed to naturally separate along a settler due to their different specific gravities. From this stage the copper is stripped from the loaded organic phase by highly acidic electrolytes to produce an enriched electrolyte known as strong electrolyte. The remaining low-copper aqueous solution from the extraction stage, called raffinate, now high in acid content is recycled to the leach cells to recover more copper while the strong electrolyte is sent to the tank house for electrowinning.

Through a complex piping network, the heavy copperladen pregnant liquor solution (PLS) is collected from the irrigation systems and then pumped to the Solvent Extraction Plant for processing.

Recovery Process of Copper through Leaching, Solvent Extraction and Electrowinning

Copper can truly be cited as the ‘green’ metal both for its role in protecting the natural environment through its use in energy-saving applications, and for the achievements that have been realised in the production of the metal in an environmentally sound manner.

About MYTCL

The new plant, Tank-House C, was commissioned in late 2014 and by January 2015 was operating at full capacity.

The cathodes are stripped basically every seven days, with each copper-laden cathode weighing approximately between 48-52kg as per the London Metal Exchange (LME) market standard.

Modern and state-of-the-art facilities at TH-C.

These sheets are washed with hot water, sampled, weighed and bundled for shipment. Sampling is being carried out on an 80tonne/lot basis, and analysis is completed at offshore and local laboratories for LME quality control. MYTCL produces cathode copper that complies with LME Grade-A rating, and is more than 99.999% in purity.

Each copper bundle is weighed at just over 2 tonnes and identified with the MYTCL logo and LME registration.

MYTCL’s INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - IMS

Scope of the Integrated Management System The Integrated Management System (IMS) is based on the ISO 14001:2004, OHSAS 18001:2007 and ISO 9001:2008 standards. The correspondence between these international standards is described in the table – Integrated Management System Overview. It is applied to all MYTCL Operations activities of Mining, Crushing, Stacking, Heap-Leaching, Solvent Extraction and Electrowinning process of Cathode Copper, including Shipping and Marketing. It has been developed and established as a living document to be used for guidance in all operational matters. Its implementation and maintenance will result in improved safety, environmental and quality management performance and business profitability within the operation. All other management systems must be consistent with the Integrated Management System. MYTCL will periodically review and evaluate its IMS in order to identify opportunities for improvement, and to ensure that it remains relevant. The IMS provides a framework for the achievement of continual improvement, the rate and extent of which will be determined by MYTCL Management in the light of corporate, economic and legal requirements. Although some improvement in safety, environmental and quality performance can be expected due to the adoption of a systematic approach, the IMS will primarily be used as a tool that will enable MYTCL to achieve, and systematically control, an improved level of management performance.

The IMS System provides the framework for management of workplace health and safety and environment at MYTCL, by clearly setting out the standards we require our people to meet. Managers and supervisors are required to provide leadership in relation to IMS by: •

effectively implementing the requirements of the standards;

•

developing and sustaining a strong culture of working safely and continuous improvement;

•

setting stretch improvement goals; and

•

allocating sufficient resources to achieve the goals.

There are three primary drivers behind MYTCL’s Integrated Management System:

1. Protect the health and safety of people by providing a safe place of work and safe systems of work; 2. Operate within the law; and 3. Ensure people know their IMS responsibilities and how they are to be met.

Quality assurance, safety and environmental objectives and targets will be determined for each safety and environmental issue by the relevant Department Superintendents, Supervisors and the safety and environmental representatives. MYTCL shall ensure that quality objectives, including those needed to meet requirements for product are established at relevant functions and levels within the organisation. To ensure that it is effective, the planning process at each level of the business takes into consideration: • identification, access and communication of legal and company requirements; and • setting challenging improvement targets and objectives, developing and maintaining IMS improvement plans with clearly defined actions, allocation of responsibilities and completion dates. Plans are developed annually, including agreed objectives and targets. These objectives and targets are reviewed quarterly and tracked in monthly reports.

MONITOR AND MEASURE / ေစာင့္ႀကည့္စစ္ေဆးျခင္းႏွင့္စီမံေဆာငိရြက္ျခင္း By measuring, monitoring and evaluating IMS performance, MYTCL is able to take preventative or corrective action to improve performance, including:

• Health assessment and management of appropriate records. MYTCL is increasingly focusing on the fitness and wellbeing of its workforce. As part of this commitment, MYTCL has developed both a Philanthropic Health Care Program through the Mobile Medical Team, as well as inclusive health care opportunities provided to direct family members of employees. A focus on HIV and Hepatitis has also been implemented at every level of employee, from casual labourer to contract employee. • Auditing of our systems and tracking of actions to address non compliances identified. External auditors inspect MYTCL operations on a cyclical basis to ensure compliance with the IMS Standards, to identify any systemic deficiencies and compliance issues. Internal certified auditors follow the same guidelines as external auditors to identify areas of opportunity on a quarterly basis. 6 site-based and Yangon office internal/external audits were conducted during the year to December 31st 2014. Recommendations from these audits are reviewed, actions developed, assigned to applicable personnel; time framed and monitored to completion. • Injury/incident reporting, recording , investigation and corrective actions – to find out what caused the incident and provide an insight to what trends are commonly occurring and need to be addressed. By collecting and reviewing this data our safety teams are concentrating on developing initiatives to eliminate these and other causes.

MANAGEMENT REVIEW / စီမံခန္႕ခဲြျခင္းကိုစိစစ္သံုးသပ္ျခင္း All parts of MYTCL are required to undertake regular reviews of performance to improve the IMS management system as part of continuously improving IMS performance. MYTCL constantly reviews its health and safety performance to ensure it continues to improve across the business, including performance against leading and lagging indicators. Additionally, reviews of the management system audit outcomes are completed to ensure compliance standards are met. •

MYTCL’s safety performance is afforded the highest priority through formal reporting to the Board of Directors.

•

The IMS Committee reviews the adequacy of management systems and performance, ensures that appropriate improvement targets and benchmarks are in operation and monitors potential liabilities, changes in legislation, community expectations, research findings and technological changes. Remedial actions are instigated to ensure targets are kept on track if performance to target falls below the expected requirement. This ensures that MYTCL as an organisation is continually improving our company processes and systems.

MY CL T

MYTCL’s INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT POLICY - IMP While MYTCL’s safety record continues to improve in process year after year, there is considerable work still required to achieve our ambition of zero harm across all our operations. MYTCL management is held accountable for safety performance and all employees are expected to take personal responsibility and be involved in setting and complying with our standards and instigating improvement initiatives. Under the direction of the General Manager, MYTCL will continue the drive to achieve zero harm across all of our operating sites and work locations by: • complying with the laws, regulations and MYTCL operational policies and standards; • establishing measurable objectives and targets, recognise and celebrate their achievement; • identifying, assessing and controlling hazards and impacts, and eliminate or reduce the risk to an acceptable level; • informing employees, contractors, visitors and the public of these hazards and impacts that may cause potential harm to them; our business and/or our environment; • identifying, implementing, monitoring and reinforcing the safe behaviours we expect in our business to eliminate unsafe acts and practices; • providing appropriate workplace health, safety and environmental training to employees and contractors; • investigating incidents and sharing the learning’s with applicable stakeholders to prevent re-occurrences; and • consulting and communicating with employees to continually improve the workplace health, safety and environmental performance in our workplaces. These are the IMP commitments and establish the foundations of the IMS. In 2015-16 a new voluntary ISO guidance standard will be introduced to MYTCL, ISO 26000: Global Guidance Standard on Social Responsibility. This standard will also adhere to the IMS and enhance the external stakeholder activities for MYTCL and its operations.

MANAGING SAFETY Since April 22, 2003, an Occupational Health & Safety Management System (OHSMS) based on the AS/NZS 4801:2001 standard was introduced at S&K project and replaced with OHSAS 18001:2007 standard on 25th July 2012. This implementation effectively assists in international and national legal requirements, while committing to sustained improvement in OHS performance. In September of 2013 recertification of OHSAS 18001:2007 was accomplished and auditing structures established until 2016. Personnel are MYTCL’s greatest asset, and occupational health and safety risks associated with MYTCL’s activities are constantly encouraged to be reduced and effectively managed. MYTCL believes that all injuries and occupational illnesses are preventable and places heavy emphasis on hazard identification, risk assessment and hazard control. Procedures for Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) were developed and implemented based on the AS/NZS-4360 standard, and updated to the ISO 31000:2009 framework.

42 | Sustainability Report

KPI with Key Performance Indicators Risks are evaluated and registered within each department, as well as for the entire operation. Identified risks have been controlled through a preferred order of control methods commonly referred to as a hierarchy. Safety objectives and targets have been established, based on the risk ranking, and detailed management programs for achieving those objectives and targets also have been developed.

Continuing through 2015-16 there will be an even greater emphasis on how risk management should be implemented, measured and integrated throughout MYTCL with the establishment and continuous improvement of the MYTCL Risk Management Framework Design (see graphics). The Principles, Framework and Process Management of the ISO 31000 processes ensure that information about risk, derived from the risk management process, is adequately reported and used as a basis for decision making and accountability at all relevant levels within the MYTCL organisation.

The Risk Management Framework and Design The framework design takes into account: •

Understanding of the organisation’s activities and its context;

•

Establishing a risk management policy;

•

Defining accountabilities;

•

Integration into organisational processes;

•

Provision of adequate resources to maintain the framework; and

•

Establishing internal and external communication and reporting mechanisms.

Each area of the Risk Management Framework and Design follow the international Deming Cycle, or most commonly known as the PDCA Cycle. This continuous systematic approach to improvement allows for review and consultation throughout the processes. It also establishes the opportunity for growth and change in areas where new policies or performance mechanisms are implemented.

ENHANCED RISK MANAGMENT The ISO 31000 standard was introduced in 2014 to critically review, align and improve our existing practices of enhanced risk management in all areas of operations. The most primary and critical area where risk is involved is within Safety Management. The key attributes of this standard outline a high level of performance expectations for MYTCL in managing all risk. The key attributes are:

•

Continual Improvement: through the setting of performance goals against which the MYTCL organisation or its managers are measured;

•

Full Accountability of Tasks: designated individuals fully accept accountability, are appropriately skilled and have adequate resources to check controls, monitor risks, improve controls and communicate effectively about risks;

•

Risk Management Application in all Decision Making: no matter the level of importance or significance, explicit consideration of risks and risk management needs to take place;

•

Continual Communications: contact with internal and external stakeholders including the frequent reporting of risk management performance;

•

Full Integration with the MYTCL Organisation’s Governance Structure: the MYTCL organisation’s governance structure and process is based on the management of risk.

Document Workflow of IMS Occupational Health & Safety Management System OHSMS

•

Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is the primary risk assessment and management technique used for all operational activities. Task-list development, job-safety analysis and risk assessment are performed within a teambased environment.

•

The Departmental Management Plan (DMP) for each department are also continually reviewed and revised to comply with the latest developments within each department.

•

Personnel involved in operations must be competent to perform tasks that may impact occupational health and safety in the workplace. MYTCL has therefore established education, training and awareness schemes to ensure that all personnel have the necessary capabilities and skills to perform their tasks safely.

•

•

Health and safety competency assessments, including identification of hazards, risk assessments, and the elements of operational control and emergency response are conducted with each employee to ensure that health and safety risks are controlled to prevent harm from occurring. Contractors and temporary employees make up a large portion of MYTCL’s workforce, especially in project activities. We recognise that the temporary operators and workers may be more at risk of injuring themselves where they are unfamiliar with MYTCL’s operations, and are undertaking non-routine tasks. Therefore, a focus of our efforts is devoted to the establishment of safe work practices focusing on contractors and temporary employees. A standard procedure was developed for incident reporting and investigation with the aim of preventing recurrence within our organisation. Incidents also are classified and analysed for common trends for proactive safety measures to be implemented.

The OHSAS 18001 standard provides MYTCL with the elements of an effective OHSMS that can be integrated with other management requirements and help the organisation achieve better occupational health and safety performance and economic objectives.

KPI Key Performance Indicators

The most common KPI of any company is that of employee injury and of lost time, equipment damage and loss of production.

In 2014 MYTCL began the reporting of activities and metrics that are within the IMS System, but that had not been extracted into a unit of measure to be compared to year after year. Additional safety related KPI were established, and an order of monitoring communicated to all Heads of Departments in order to track changes, and in turn modify or revisit programs that required more attention.

•

Internal departmental tracking of employee error in PPE management, and of unsafe working practices are now being measured and monitored utilising a KPI methodology to raise safety awareness and reduce injury or safety risks.

•

Toolbox Talks and Safety Topics are being recorded and now reported with the intention to improve year after year and to ensure that the cycle of relevant information is current with the on-going mining activities.

•

Safety Meetings and Audits are being increased due to the KPI implementation.

•

Within the Safety Planning for 2015-16 there will be KPI performance indicators established within each department to account for their performance not only on production, but also on how safely their performance was managed.

•

The Community & Social Development Team (CSD) will also be utilising the KPI method to ensure that a precise Grievance Mechanism is implemented in accordance with community and pubic consultation guidelines of MYTCL. This KPI will hold great importance by sustaining the transparency and effectiveness of MYTCL’s safety programs for villages and neighbours.

•

Human Resources oriented KPI will be established in 2015-16 such as Casual Labourer durations within departments, overtime and fatigue management, and the ever important management of training employees for future promotions and the generation of a sustainable and safety oriented workforce within MYTCL.

LOST TIME INJURY FREQUENCY RATES (LTIFR) Worker Safety is the primary KPI where achievements and improvements are measured and monitored. In order to have some measure to compare the MYTCL mining operations safety performance to, we have chosen to utilise the averages from the Australian Workers’ Compensation Board. Annually this board publishes the country’s performance by industry. Comparing our targets and averages against those of Australia gives this KPI value and weight when it comes to judging safety performance at MYTCL. The metric of Lost-Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) is the standard KPI used, and a target of 1.0 has been set by MYTCL for 2014, while 2015 will see a target of <0.9 to move the target in line with the zero-incident goal. DEFINITION OF LOST-TIME INJURY

Industry Standard Average

A lost-time injury is defined as an occurrence that resulted in a fatality, permanent disability or time lost from work of one day/shift or more. This definition comes from the Australian standard: Workplace Injury and Disease Recording Standard (Australian Standard 1885.1– 1990), published by Standards Australia.

The Workplace Injury and Disease Recording Standard was developed to provide individual workplaces with a guide on how to establish an inexpensive and easy to use method of recording information on work injury and disease. The availability of usable and reliable occupational health and safety data is seen as essential by employers, trade unions and industry associations for the development, monitoring and evaluation of appropriate preventive strategies designed to improve the health and safety of the working population.

3.4 LTIFR

The Standard has been developed to satisfy the following objectives:

(a) To provide information on the nature and extent of occupational injury and disease at the workplace.

(b) To provide a comprehensive set of data for the management of occupational health and safety at the workplace and enterprise level. (c) To assist in the efficient allocation of resources. (d) To identify appropriate preventive strategies. (e) To provide data to monitor the effectiveness of preventive strategies.

CALCULATION OF LOST-TIME INJURY FREQUENCY RATES (LTIFR) Lost-time injury frequency rates are the number of lost-time injuries within a given accounting period relative to the total number of hours worked in the same accounting period. This is calculated as follows and results in a measure of the number of lost-time injuries per hour worked during the accounting period:

Number of lost time injuries in accounting period: 1st Jan 2014 to 31st Dec 2014 = 1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- x 1,000,000 Total hours worked in accounting period: 1st Jan 2014 to 31st Dec 2014 = 10,988,832

The number of lost-time injuries per hour worked is always a very small number. Therefore, for ease of interpretation, a multiplier of 1 million is used and LTIFRs are reported as the number of lost-time injuries per million hours worked. This is calculated as follows:

For The 2014 year there was a steep increase of employees, MYTCL contractors and outside developers on the MYTCL lease, Actual Rank working on a variety of projects not normally within the MYTCL procedures. Areas of potential risk 0.09 LTIFR were in construction phases with more than 4 overseas contracts in process, while 20 local earthmoving contractors were utilised in mine expansion developments and project works. Despite this increase in both working hours and likelihood of potentially elevated risk due to inexperienced employees from outside and new employees on site, MYTCL managed a remarkable decrease in LTIFR, attaining the second lowest injury statistic in recorded history of the S&K Project. The only other lower figure occurred during the hand-over year and sale of the company when the mine managed a low profile of employee engagement and also experienced minimal production in the year 2011.

WORKPLACE WELFARE, HEALTH PERFORMANCE & PROGRAMS MYTCL recognises that a sustainable workplace is one that is both safe and rewarding for our employees. In keeping with our current international status as a World-Class Mining Operation, modern technologies expected to improve efficiency and safety, as well as to reduce costs and environmental impacts are actively sought out and implemented through departments such as the Safety and Environment Research Department and from the Operations Management level. MYTCL is fully committed to providing in-depth and comprehensive training programs to assist each and every employee in maximising their own potential, all the while developing alongside the international communities.

Safety and Environment learning, in every area of operations is a ceaseless array of refresher courses and of attaining modern knowledge.

COMMUNICATING TO ENHANCE WORKPLACE WELFARE The key to managing safety at MYTCL is through repetitive and open lines of communication, structured safety topics and support from the Safety & Environment Department to focus on up-to-date safety alerts. Safety meetings are an opportunity for MYTCL’s management and our safety department to communicate to employees how they can do their jobs safer and better. Topics discussed in safety meetings may be topics that our employees are familiar with, or topics that they have limited knowledge about. We encourage our employees to pay close attention to any and all safety topics, even if it is something that they have heard a hundred times, and listen to the information as if they have never heard it before. Information passed on in a safety meeting has a purpose - to stop our employees from being injured, or injuring a co-worker. Safety meetings also allow employees an opportunity to relay safety concerns or improvement ideas to their supervisors. Accidents result from unsafe acts or unsafe conditions. According to some experts, for a variety of reasons, unsafe acts typically account for 90% of all accidents. Safety meetings serve as a preventative measure against unsafe acts by educating employees on how they can do their job safely. At MYTCL we take safety very seriously, and we make very clear the repercussions that accidents may have on operations and employees. •

DEATH - The ultimate unwanted result. Where does this leave your loved ones?

•

FINANCIAL COST - Lost pay or reduction in pay. Who pays the bills? Are you the sole income producer in your household?

•

PAIN & SUFFERING - An obvious detriment that no one desires.

•

DISABILITY - A life changing experience. Now you’re not able to do what you use to do. Maybe now you can’t walk? Ride that bicycle, hug your wife, lift your child, or simply see? Or perhaps you’re confined to a hospital bed for life. Goodbye career.

•

YOUR CO-WORKERS SAFETY - Perhaps you and your co-worker have been working together for some time now. Chances are you may spend as much time with your co-workers as you do your own family. You obviously do not want something bad to happen to them. Watch out for their safety too.

“Safety meetings are a perfect opportunity for you to communicate any safety ideas or concerns that you may have. Participate in your safety meetings. If you don’t participate, then your ideas will not be heard. Who knows…the idea that you have may very well save your co-worker’s life or even your own.”

HEALTH PERFORMANCE KPI & EVALUATION In order to gain a picture of the health scorecard of the mine-site, a key performance indicator was chosen to be the average medical or sick leave that had been taken by employees during the course of the 2014 year. It is difficult to see how healthy the heartbeat of the workforce, so to speak, is without referring to some figure that represents how the employees truly are feeling. Absence from work depicts a pretty clear image of health impacts to the staff. A large amount of medical days are granted to employees at MYTCL, with 30 days provided by law. There are many factors that may contribute to medical leave besides actually being ill; depression, loss of desire to support the company, inability to fulfil job requirements, peer pressure or poor cooperation with fellow workers, management issues and so on. One key factor that is apparent in the MYTCL heath scorecard, as seen in the table, is that fatigue may be a driving force of medical leave, as it impacts the mining department at the highest levels compared to the rest of the company. This will be addressed through training and health programs planned to be implemented throughout the year. MYTCL Health Performance KPI of Sick & Medical Days Used in 2014

As can be seen in the overall health performance of the MYTCL organisation, the employees on the whole are not taking their full medical benefits, indicating that they are not only relatively healthy, but happy in their work environments. Focus will be placed on this KPI with the intention of improving specific areas that seem to have been impacted greater than others. HEALTH TRAINING & WORKSITE PROGRAMS MYTCL plans to reengage its Training Department towards the end of the year. With it there are plans for graduate and supervisor training that will assist management to enhance their own skills and competency. As a part of this training, comprehensive workplace health programs that contain the following five elements will be work-shopped: 1. Health education, which focuses on skill development and lifestyle behaviour change along with information dissemination and awareness building, preferably tailored to employees’ interests and needs. 2. Supportive social and physical environments that include MYTCL’s expectations regarding healthy behaviours and policies that promote health and reduce risk of disease. 3. Integrating a worksite program into MYTCL’s structure. 4. Linkage to related programs like employee assistance programs (EAPs) and programs to help employees balance work and family. 5. Worksite screening programs ideally linked to medical care to ensure follow-up and appropriate treatment as necessary.

FIRE MANAGEMENT & FIRE SAFETY On July 21st, 2014 the MYTCL Fire Department was created, establishing for the first time in history of the S&K Project an internal Fire Fighting Brigade and comprehensive organisational strategy for fire emergency preparedness. TH-A and TH-C were separated into 2 defined areas with 2 unified fire fighting brigades. Firemen posts and operational job descriptions were created, preliminary JSA and SOP were also prepared, and the training for such specialised working environments had been pre-planned since early in the year. On July 22nd a site specific internal safety audit was conducted in TH-C in full compliance with SGS IMS standards and issues identified and recorded. On this date the fire truck was also delivered to the Fire Department from overseas, and the machine’s operational functions were thoroughly inspected. On July 25th at 14:00hrs, fire training commenced specific to the utilisation of the fire truck models that would be used on site, with 28 Firemen, the Security and Fire Chief, all Fire Officers and the fire truck trainer from Wanbao. On August 7th the Monywa Regional Fire Marshall and his team began the official Fire Department training and management for the fire brigades of MYTCL. A second batch of training was conducted on September 15th. Site specific emergency response training as well as equipment training was the focus of these initial training seminars. Internal Security Force – ISF & Fire Brigade The Internal Security Force & Fire Brigade is a dedicated security team allocated to the safety and security of the SX-EW operations. Special training allows these personnel to act as both police of the cathode copper produced on site, and as fire fighters for the safety of the facilities and its staff. Over the course of 2015-16, this ISF Team will be built and organised as an efficient Fire Brigade. International, as well as continuing regional government fire department training will be brought to MYTCL, and professional equipment will be procured for the operation of this new addition to the Security Department. Coordinating with the Fire and Safety Officers from the Safety & Environment Department, it is expected that important milestones will be achieved by the end of 2015. A fully equipped firehouse and facilities will be constructed on site for the 2 fire trucks and staff of 50 employees that make up the ISF & Fire Brigade of MYTCL. Emergency Response Plan - IMP 08 In the unlikely event that there is a major incident on site, the Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan has been integrated into the IMS. An Emergency Major Incident Plan is simultaneously implemented to resolve any such emergency. This plan details responsible persons, reporting procedures and prepared planning to mitigate any such incident. Scope and Objectives of the Emergency and Major Incident Plan

•

Fire

•

Explosion

•

Spills

•

Gas Leaks

•

Vehicle Accidents

•

Mass Casualty Situation

•

With the development of the ISF & Fire Brigade, the Emergency and Major Incident Plan will be enhanced through the support of this team. Plans for late 2015 and into 2016 will see the integration of the ISF & Fire Brigade into this planning and into the emergency preparedness objective of the company.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS The Environmental Management System (EMS), integrated into Operational Management by the S&K Project, records and monitors compliance with stated environmental policies and objectives. This compliance has been demonstrated through MYTCL’s Société Générale de Surveillance (SGS) certifications. The current EMS requires MYTCL to continue to establish environmental planning and to continuously monitor the environmental impact of the operations.

FOUR MAIN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AT THE S&K PROJECT 1. Acid Rock Drainage (possibly released from mine-pit walls and waste dumps) 2. Dangerous goods (hydrocarbon products, sulphuric acid and process reagents waste) 3. Land disturbance (land disturbed by extensive operations) 4. Non-process waste (including rubbish, paper and plastics, rubber and batteries)

An Environment Management Program has been developed to control the environmental issues identified above. The program is being actively monitored for potential environmental impacts. plan

Results are reviewed for any trends, findings are reported and corrective measures are implemented, if required. Detailed Environmental Control Procedures have been developed and implemented. An Environmental Emergency Response Plan has been established, practiced and basic training is given to employees of all departments.

implement

Environmental Impact Assessments are conducted for new MYTCL projects.

check

A technology transfer program has been developed and environmental awareness training is on-going both on and off site. All employees are trained to respond quickly and effectively to any environmental impacts. All environmental documents are of high quality. Records are well stored, maintained and are easily accessible. Documents are reviewed and updated to ensure continuous improvement.

review

COMPLIANCE

In order to maintain the status as a world-class mine, the S&K Project has monitored the effectiveness of its Environmental Management System by having its performance audited regularly. The SGS auditors from Australia, Singapore and Thailand conduct an audit of the MYTCL operations for certification in the ISO 14001 and the ISO 9001 in the middle, and at the end of each year. SGS Certification Auditing for OHSAS 18001 also commenced in July of 2012, and all 3 certifications in 2013 were revalidated until 2016, to be audited together on a biannual basis. Internal audit teams formed with MYTCL personnel, and professionally certified for auditing by SGS training staff, are responsible for completing internal audits on a quarterly basis.

Environment

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS Achieving both sustainability and continual improvements requires that MYTCL persistently evaluate existing environmental performances of the certified environmental management system against its environmental policies, objectives and targets for the purpose of identifying opportunities by the organisation. Furthermore, in order to attain sound perpetual development, identify and improve environmental performance, determining the root cause and causes of non-conformance or deficiencies, and developing and implementing a plan of corrective and preventative actions are also vigorously carried out in conjunction with the operations of multifarious mining activities. Seven key areas of environmental management are reviewed by MYTCL; namely air, water, energy, waste, land, biodiversity and compliance. Key Performance indicators (KPI) are used to determine where improvement and action must be taken. These KPI also evaluate the environmental conservation activities success at MYTCL. Each area has defined and globally measured attributes of environmental conservation. The purpose in assessing MYTCL’s key performance indicators is three tiered: to conserve the existent condition of the environment and natural resources; to observe the causes of environmental change; and to mitigate the impacts of environmental deterioration.

AIR

Air quality is monitored on a regular basis to provide operational air quality data. All records from MYTCL relating to dust and acid mist levels are annually below harmful exposure levels.

DUST EMISSION CONTROLS

Mining operations generate dust on roads and in crushing, conveying and stacking areas. MYTCL operates a dust-separation technology by the spraying of water to control dust rising up from the mine pits, primary and secondary crushers, crushed-ore stockpiles and haul roads. Fortythree dust-monitoring stations are installed in major dust-emitting areas, including some within neighbouring villages, and recorded levels are reviewed monthly. Grass cover and re-vegetation is employed on exposed soil around the mine site. Results have been variable because dust is caused by different sources, and therefore different locations and results are mostly seasonal. For comparison, results at the fortythree areas indicate that dust-fall trends to obviously lessen in the wet season, and that the main source of dust is the ore crushing and conveying system, particularly during the dry months. The heaviest dust-fall was recorded in the area nearby the primary and secondary crushers. Point DM-4 (East of Primary Crusher) recorded the highest dust-fall during March and April. The dust-fall at the remaining spots

indicates acceptable amounts in all seasons. Elevated dust fall levels were also apparent in areas adjacent to the access roads and haul roads in the dry seasons. In 2014, Operations Management and the SE Department worked with the villages that were directly impacted by the development of the Kyisintaung Mountain. Dust emissions were recorded at 2 specific locations where excessive dust became a concern. Yegybin Village and Ywatha Village were monitored on a daily basis, and although the dust records reached high levels for brief moments, they were well below the world standards for extended periods of time. Mining efforts were mitigated to reduce dust emissions affecting these villages and alert dust levels lowered even further below world standards so as to eliminate any impact to the delicate Betel-leaf crops within wind-bearing distance. The impact was reviewed and it was found that due to the seasonal Monsoon winds changing from a southerly direction to a northerly that heavy dust generated from blasting moved

The SE Department also worked closely with the CSD Team (Community & Social Development) to ensure that farmers were included in the discussions regarding dust issues and sensitive plants. This transparency and cooperation between farmers and MYTCL continues today and will into the future in order to resolve any concerns or issues that arise from dust control.

To ensure that dust emissions had no impacts directly to the crops, the Ministry of Agriculture from the Salingyi District was consulted in 2013 and again in 2014. They were brought in for inspections and released a report indicating that the MYTCL blasting activities resulting in dust emissions had no apparent impact to villager harvests. Nonetheless, MYTCL consulted with the farmers, made donations for better pest control and plans to assist with future agricultural growth for such crops. In 2015 a bilateral agreement will be established between the farming community and MYTCL to ensure that dust standards are compliant and within acceptable limits.

ACID MIST MONITORING

The processes of Copper Heap Leaching and Electrowinning emit acid mist into the atmosphere. Acid mist emissions are monitored monthly around the heaps, and daily within the tankhouses of the SX-EW plants; Tankhouse A (TH-A) and Tankhouse C (TH-C). Results show that acid mist levels are well below the allowable exposure levels, and this is measured inside the area at the direct point of contact. Acid mist escaping this facility is well below the human impact standards.

recordable limits that equipment rarely picked up any traces. Nonetheless, action was taken to close the berm openings, extending the visual impact barrier further to the west to reduce the opportunity for winds to funnel directly into the village areas. Comprehensive meetings were held with concerned nearby villages, government officials of the region and the Management of MYTCL. The situations were explained in detail, indicating that human impact was not to be a concern, but that the sensitivity of the particular Neem tree had launched MYTCL management into action. Abiding by the guidelines of the company’s EMS, as well as to acknowledge the concerns of the villages in the nearby areas, MYTCL is continuing to monitor this area and to prepare for further mitigations as the mine expands closer to the perimeters of the lease areas.

In 2014, a study was conducted due to the sudden dropping of leaves, particularly from Neem trees that surrounded the newly constructed heap leach pads on the southern boundaries of the lease. Village concerns were also raised as to the possibilities of human impact from acid mist carried by the change of the winds into the cool-dry seasonality of the region. Prior to new pad construction, a perimeter berm had been established along the southern boundary. It was specifically designed to be vegetated and raised to a height of 10+ metres to enlighten the visual impact of the mining activities within the lease as a part of the mine closure program of the project. It was found that, in 2 specific areas where the berm was allowed to drop for road access and water drainage, the changing winds blew directly through carrying nearly undetectable trace amounts of acid mist.

A national consultant from Environment (Wunkyin) Myanmar Cooperative Ltd. – EMC, Dr. Win Maung, as well as Knight Piésold’s Environmental Manager, Mr. Brett Loney, both inspected the areas that had been impacted and conferred that the sensitivity to the minute change in pH levels caused by mild acid mist drift was the most likely cause. Although the Neem trees had been impacted, the human repercussions or any possibility of elevated environmental issues were not a cause for alarm. Shortly after environmental considerations were in place leaves began to sprout on the tree branches, indicating that mitigation measures were taking effect.

Impact levels were monitored and measured, and mitigation arrangements were immediately taken. The southern cells closest to the perimeter had their irrigation systems changed from the normal ‘Wobbler System’ that gently spray irrigation solution like a water sprinkler, and replaced with a ‘Dripper System’, therefore eliminating any acid mist from being generated into the atmosphere. Acid mist monitoring results showed such low

Water

The most precious of all resources at MYTCL is carefully protected and monitored.

SURFACE WATER

The MYTCL S&K Project is located in a dry-zone area with a high rate of evaporation and medium levels of rainfall. The few surface-water bodies that exist in the project area are summarised as follows: Wetlands: An environmental control of fresh water run-off during the rainy season which maintains a natural wetland ecosystem. Ponds: A series of constructed control ponds to collect contaminated run-off from active operating areas. Process solution collection ponds are monitored to prevent contamination to the surroundings, such as the Chindwin River or the Yama Stream.

GROUND WATER

A shallow, semi-unconfined aquifer lies beneath the mining operations area of the S&K Project. The water level of this aquifer varies with the wet and dry seasons. MYTCL has installed 60 boreholes around the S&K Project to monitor the groundwater quality. Ground water is observed 10-30 metres below the surface within these boreholes. Excess aquifer fresh water from the mine pit is pumped out into a silt trap pond and then released into the Yama Stream. In addition to MYTCL scientists evaluating the water samples, from time to time an independent laboratory is employed to analyse and check the samples.

CONSUMPTION

The S&K project area lies in the Chindwin River Basin. The principal watercourses near the mine area are the Chindwin River and Yama Stream. The Chindwin River, which flows approximately six kilometres to the east of the project area, is a major tributary of the Ayeyarwady, and has a catchment that covers 113,000 km2. Snowmelt and rainfall in the upper reaches of the basin heavily influence flows in the Chindwin River. With the onset of summer, melting snow in the upper basin highlands and Monsoon rainfall translate to stream rises and flooding at Monywa. Data from the Monywa Stream Gauging Station show that stream flows are lowest over the period December to May, with the average base flow during this period at 800 m3/s. Stream flows increase markedly during the Wet Season months of June to October. During this period the maximum average monthly stream flow is more than 15,000 m3/s. The Yama Stream, which lies to the north of the project area and flows within 200 metres of Kyisintaung, is a tributary of the Chindwin River, and has a catchment of 2,046 km2. The mean annual flow ranges from 233 m3/s to 586 m3/s, with an average of 350 m3/s. Ultimately the consumption from the waterways for the S&K project has no impact on natural water resources. In fact, approximately 1,000m3 /hr are recharged to the Yama Stream from the fresh water dewatering from the Kangon Aquifer Formation located in the Sabetaung Pit.

Energy & Emission

Energy consumption and emmissions created from operations are monitored for impact.

In terms of consideration in sustaining the environment while accelerating mining operations, the aspiration for reducing energy consumption is essentially integrated into the environmental management system of MYTCL. Nevertheless, the progressive requirements in line with expansion of operational activities create high energy consumption. The deeper the pit, the more power is consumed by dewatering pumps, which contribute to the largest power consumed amongst all operational activities.

MYTCL is employing best-practice planning, cost-effective and first-rate available technologies to apply an alternative to lessen fuel usage than that of electricity, intended to diminish CO2 emissions and ultimately use more clean energy where possible. Full amounts of CO2 emission resulted from fuel usage and explosive activities in the S&K project area is favourably within stable conditions from April 2002 until today, with no detrimental impacts to the environment. In 2014 the Energy and Emissions Index shows considerable improvement through the assistance of new equipment and facilities, as well as through the implementation of modern technologies and the optimisation of related activities.

The main sources of fuel are diesel and petrol, which are widely used in mechanical machinery, heavy and light vehicles, as well as the practice of power stations. Electricity stands in second place of energy sources utilised to date. Effectual schemes to gauge amounts of utilisation and to conserve energy are being developed to accentuate potential savings.

MYTCL uses various kinds of products, reagents and explosives in its production processes. Some are hazardous substances and control procedures have been developed and implemented to minimise the risk of handling such materials. These substances may cause injuries or health problems if their use is not controlled. MYTCL has trained all personnel and issued HAZMAT guidelines for handling and storing of all Dangerous Goods.

ACID ROCK DRAINAGE (ARD) & ACID METALLIFEROUS DRAINAGE (AMD)

Mining operations produces, in addition to inert waste, potential acid-forming waste (PAF) containing oxidised or sulphidic minerals that are capable of producing an acid contaminant (ARD/ AMD material) when exposed to air and water. MYTCL is committed to a Zero Discharge Policy, and maintains control over acid rock drainage as per the ARD/AMD Management Plan. Acid waste dumps are designed and constructed with clay lining and inert material on the sill, then encapsulated or ‘bunded’ with clay and inert material around the dumps to prevent from ground contamination. Potential seepage water

from the acid waste dumps will be collected and contained in interception drains dug along the toe of the waste dumps, and pumped back to containment ponds. Contaminated water from the pit is pumped into the Overflow Pond, while run-off released from the process leach pad areas is contained in the Storm-Water Pond and any excessive water is then pumped into the Tailings Dam. All contaminated solution is recycled as make-up water for the process of irrigating the Heap Cells.

Land Disturbance Managing a Delicate Ecosystem

MYTCL’s leased area totals appproximately 2,300 hectares, and is comprised of vegetated land, hills and ancient pits left by previous mining activities. Mining operations and the processing of ore inevitably change the natural landscapes. MYTCL assumes the responsibility to minimise land disturbance and to rehabilitate the areas inevitably affected. Since 2001 the company has established and implemented a rolling 3-year program of progressive rehabilitation and revegetation within the lease, which has made excellent progress and will be reviewed in detail during the 2015 year to incorporate all mine design changes since the inception of MYTCL.

IMPACTED SITE MANAGEMENT

To control land disturbance on the S&K Project, a permit system is used to ensure personnel and departments understand that the areas to be disturbed shall have minimal environmental impacts.

78 | Sustainability Report

In 2014, 30 detailed sites have been recorded as disturbed and as either contaminated, impacted or affected. These locations will be closed as part of the Mine Closure Plan, which will rehabilitate all MYTCL sites detected to date. The old Flotation Plant and limestone waste stockpile are among several sites used by previous mining operations and listed as contaminated. MYTCL is not responsible for remediation of any preexisting sites. Kyisintaung Pits and the heapleach pads are disturbed sites that remain in operation. Additionally, 13-sites previously listed as disturbed have been closed and rehabilitated to date. In 2014 both the Sabetaung South and the main Sabetaung Pit have commenced mine closure with detailed designs prepared and monitored by Knight PiÊsold and Operations Management. MYTCL’s Environmental Site Management Program, monitored by the SE Department, references standards set by the National Environment Protection Council of Australia.

Biodiversity

Managing a Delicate Ecosystem

WILDLIFE SPECIES PRESENCE AND ENDANGERED SPECIES

Annually Flora and Fauna Studies are conducted twice per year by an in-country specialised company, led by the country’s leading expert Dr. Win Maung. Referencing the original Myanmar Ivanhoe Copper Company Limited - MICCL Baseline Study and monitoring reports completed by Minproc Engineers Ltd., the species presence, or decline thereof, of both fauna and flora are observed on a year by year basis within the impacted areas of the S&K Project lease.

The conservation of biodiversity continued by MYTCL has a primary focus involving endangered, vulnerable and endemic species of birds and mammals. An area of conservation was determined and outlined to not be impacted within the lease area. It showed to be the dwelling of many of the fauna species indigenous to the area, and home to their feeding grounds. The mountain areas and their foothills of the northeastern lease area of S&K, known as the Kyadwintaung, Hninsitaung and Taukamauk mountains, have been reserved by MYTCL specifically to allow the fauna of this area to re-establish, or maintain livelihood. Nonetheless, human intervention, farming and the mine itself have been a part in the decline of the native fauna of this area. Future plans of establishing a permanent protected conservation area, currently named the Twin Peaks Nature Reserve, are in preparation with government assistance. The Dhole (Cuon alpinus adustus), now regarded as endangered species by the Red Data Book, has been recorded since 1998 in the project area and increased in number under the careful

protection rendered by the organisation. Likewise, the Eld’s Deer (Cervus eldi) also a vulnerable species, progressively migrate from neighbouring villages into the area of S&K project due to the safety and magnetism of the newlyborn woodland rehabilitation planning of MYTCL. The organisation is going to make a plan of further investigation in respect of their relative abundance, distribution status and niche of this particular wildlife species. The presence of 2 species out of 4 National endemic species of avian fauna exist within the mine lease, amongst them the Hooded Tree Pie (Crypsirina cucullata), and the other species that catches the full interest of most Ornithologists is the White Throated Babbler (Turdoides gularsis), abundant in numbers recently. The Indian Muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak), also commonly called the ‘Barking Deer’ due to the bark-like sound that it makes as an alarm when danger is present, is a common species found still thriving in the area. The Green Bee Eater is also a common site found nestling in the sandy roadsides at MYTCL.

The Annual Flora and Fauna Studies conducted in 2014 show no significant impact within the MYTCL lease area that was not anticipated due to project expansions. The surrounding village areas exhibited progressive human intervention and some population sizes of bird species are in decline, but not considerably. EMC reports that; “The environmental management activities of the MYTCL project including revegetation activities, protection, and the conservation activities around Kyadwintaung, Taukamauk, Hninsitaung and their foothill areas are effective.”

Compliance

to Incidence Reporting

Environmental incident reporting is required to identify areas for improvement and to track progress on the treatment of an area following an incident. In 2014 there were a total of 14 Environmental Incidents, which produced little to no impact within the lease areas. Immediate response was taken in each event through the well-trained concerned departments. Incidents were reported in a timely manner, and conservation was attained with very little damage to the flora in contact. All areas of Environmental Incident were related to the Process Department and solution spillage. Additional precautionary measures were taken to inspect all pipelines and joints as part of an improvement program to acknowledge this area of concern, and departmental training was accelerated.

REHABILITATION AND REVEGETATION MYTCL is responsible for restoring the natural landscape and for rehabilitating the area during and after mining operations. Minimisation of land disturbances and progressive rehabilitation has been carried out in the following areas of the mine site: The company has developed a rolling 3-year rehabilitation plan to re-vegetate areas disturbed by previous mining activities and areas where no activities future mining activities are expected. The 3-year • Decommissioned areas work plan is carried out through MYTCL’s annual • Tailings-spills reclaimed area from Rehabilitation Program. This ensures that the amount of disturbed area is kept to a minimum at previous mining all times. The Rehabilitation Program has achieved • Abandoned waste dumps from excellent results. A total of 375 hectares have been rehabilitated since 1999. The goal of the 2014 plan previous mining was to plant 50,000 trees in 45.5 hectares. In fact, • Areas where no future mining activities approximately 50,000 trees were planted in 11.5 hectares, refining the plantations to areas where a are expected denser thicket could be achieved and therefore reducing visual impact from the lease perimeters. This included 3.5 hectares in rehabilitation blocks of Sabetaung Waste Dump near the New Dondaw Village and other flat plain areas throughout the S&K Project. In 2015 MYTCL plans to rehabilitate and revegetate above a projected 15 hectares of disturbed land by encapsulating and backfilling the remaining Sabetaung South pit and planting assorted native grasses and shrubs as part of the Mine Closure and Trials Project for Sabetaung South. This area will serve as a trial ground for the closure programs for the Sabetaung twin pits, determining effective encapsulation methodologies and appropriate land-formations for sustainable closure and water management. Other areas of revegetation in 2015, and more specifically rehabilitation, will be directly linked to closure preparations. • Land disturbed by previous mining

Environment

A new boundary fence-line began construction in 2014 with a perimeter berm as part of the mine closure program. Through 2015, this boundary will be considered for further enhancement and improvement of design to prepare for full and final mine closure. A detailed plan has been implemented by Environmental Management and reviewed by the Ministry of Greenery and of Forestry with absolute compliance and appreciation for the conservation efforts, as well as to minimise any visual or physical impact outside of the lease areas. Aesthetically, the perimeter berm will also change the now barren and dusty landscape to a more visually stimulating boundary line with rich vegetation.

In 2015, trees are also being planted outside of the lease into the Tebinkan area, as requested by the village to assist in improving and beautifying this area for future environmental sustainability. The fencing will continue around the remainder of the lease areas during 2015 to ensure the safety of people and wildlife, or domestic animals from accidentally entering into the mining activity areas. The Sabetaung Waste Dump and pits are also now under closure and the need to mitigate safety risks are a priority for the MYTCL Safety & Environment Department.

VIBRATION MANAGEMENT

In 2013 it became a prerogative of MYTCL to add to the existing 36 ECPs a 37th. This was the Vibration Control Procedure. Due to the extreme sensitivity of the surrounding village structures and religious historical buildings, vibration monitoring was conducted and an emphasis was placed on control and mitigation of areas that showed sensitivity. As the Kyisintaung Project began rapid and increased development, concerns were raised from local villagers in regards to the impact the vibrations were possibly accountable for. Blasting measures were practiced and resonance and peak particle velocity (PPV) monitored to ensure outside claims of damage were scrupulous, or that they may in fact be caused due to other means. Despite utilising absolute minimums in accordance with world standards from various continents, it was found that some damage still occurred. To this impact MYTCL responded with rebuild support and proper engineering of facilities to not only withstand the small vibrations caused by blasting at the new Kyisintaung Project, but to also mitigate against any sizable vibrations in this highly seismic area.

IMPACT MANAGEMENT TRAINING

Protecting the environment is a priority for all members of our society. Governments specifically have a key role in setting environmental standards and ensuring that individuals and organisations meet them. Increasingly in Myanmar, the governments, industry and community organisations are working as partners to protect our environment for present and future generations. Ultimately the training of our employees is the key to our success at MYTCL. The viability of the mining industry is challenged because of high expectations for environmental protection, lower risk to human health, competing land use demands, and the value of the natural environment as recreational space, and as the repository of valuable biological assets, natural environmental services and aesthetic appeal. Mining practice at MYTCL has evolved to reflect these concerns and regulatory requirements. We have introduced management policies and practices and have adopted technologies that allow mining to occur with minimum environmental harm. Our employees are trained in our environmental stewardship continually throughout their careers with us, and the improvements to MYTCL standards can be seen intensifying year after year. Training includes the identification of the benefits of best/good practice, include preventing harmful environmental and social impacts, improved outcomes in the project expansion stages, lower risk of non-compliance, greater acceptance/less resistance from key stakeholders (in particular local communities and land owners), lower financial burdens in the mine closure and rehabilitation phases, and lower risk of significant liabilities post-closure. We teach our MYTCL management levels to be environmentally responsible, and to always research international guidelines and look at new ways to minimise the impacts of our operations on the environment. Some of these include: •

Keeping the mining ‘footprint’ (the disturbed area) to a minimum;

•

Ensuring the maximum extraction of the mineral from the smallest area;

•

Minimising the risks of surface and groundwater pollution;

•

Minimising the consumption of energy in the form of diesel, petrol and electricity used in mining and processing operations;

•

Minimising emissions to atmosphere in the form of particulate (dust), exhaust fumes from vehicles and processing activities;

•

Increasing employee training, including environmental, safety and health awareness;

•

Investing in the local community infrastructure; and

•

Through both concurrent and post-closure rehabilitation, returning the mining areas to positively useful and self-sustaining landforms.

NUTURING VILLAGE CONSULTATION

The Safety and Environment Department is diligently working with local villages and their leadership to educate the people of our communities of the safety and environmental issues affiliated with MYTCL and the S&K Project, as well as how to make an environmental reduction of their own Carbon Footprint. The objective of this well-planned exercise is to make all of our neighbours aware of the care for the environment that we altogether must take, and that we at MYTCL are following internationally recognised and scientifically proven measures to reduce, reuse, rehabilitate and respect our environment. Every month a new village has been scheduled for a consultation from the S&E Department. During this visit our S&E teams will discuss current or past issues, and take the time to test well-water and complete healthcare check-ups on some of the inhabitants or new-born’s from each village, as well as listening to concerns and offering assistance or advice for solutions. In 2014 close consultations were held with villagers from all around the S&K Project.

Long-term individual development is still the responsibility of the potential employee. But we at MYTCL believe that once the individual has been hired, professional development becomes the responsibility of our organisation. Although the employee was hired with a certain set of knowledge, skills and abilities, if the roles and responsibilities of the position change, and they will, MYTCL maintains a ‘corporate social responsibility’ to invest in our human capital. Employees are investing in MYTCL by working longer hours, by handling evolving tasks and assuming increased responsibilities. So we practice building on Human Capital as an investment for both our company, as well as for the future of our employees.

The question as to who should be responsible for an employee’s professional development is an easy one to answer;

“ it is the Employer. “

Diversity and equal opportunity are vital areas of consideration for the HR teams.

HUMAN RESOURCES ORGANISATIONAL & OPERATIONAL DEVELOPMENT MYTCL understands the true value of professional development, culture, innovation and creativity, and also recognises the value of continuously educating our employee base. Our organisation acknowledges that by providing individual development that we will be better positioned to adapt to the rapidly changing demands of today’s work environment. Incorporating professional development within the overall corporate strategy is the challenge we offer all of our employees. Most leaders would agree there is a requirement and benefit to developing their employees. Yet this benefit may be hard to quantify; when a company is looking to cut costs, professional development could all too easily become the casualty. Given the economic environment of the past half-decade in particular, we have seen a dramatic decline in organisational employee development investiture. However, if we hope to promote a culture of innovation and creativity, MYTCL needs to look differently at our investment in employee development.

MYTCL has, in fact, integrated professional development into our business model. We promote this philosophy: We are always experimenting and constantly learning. We have a healthy disregard for the impossible and ‘the way things are always done’. We also consider the cost of NOT developing our people.

ATTRACTION, RETENTION, AND ENGAGEMENT This year you will find the issues of retention, engagement, and ‘attraction of talent’ to be top on our priority list. We have found that the top two people issues facing MYTCL in 2015 are leadership and retention. These are the problems we face in the dynamic, growing national economy of Myanmar. While there will still be high levels of unemployment in our surrounding villages and regions, generally people have changed their perspectives. They want work which is meaningful, rewarding, and enjoyable. Top performers will seek out career growth. Mid-level staff will strive for leadership development. And MYTCL, as an HR organisation, commits to compete, adapt, and innovate to stay ahead.

OUR

HR

GOALS FOR 2015

1. Integrated Training

For 2015-16 the Training Department will begin to trend in a more educated direction as we find high-level skills short and we will begin to build a supply chain for talent. This means partnering with universities, establishing apprentice programs, creating developmental assignments, and focusing on continuous learning. MYTCL plans to place emphasis on continuous learning in 2015 with the intent of attracting the best and building internally for the future. Many of our employees are misplaced. They came into the organisation in whichever manner they could. Sometimes just getting your ‘foot in the door’ requires being a security guard. To us, this is a talent pool that we must begin to relocate and build together for tomorrow.

2. Restructure Performance Management

The old-fashioned performance review is slowly going out the window. In 2015 MYTCL will aggressively enforce the redesign of our appraisal and evaluation programs to focus on coaching, development, continuous goal alignment, and recognition. Heads of Departments are now learning this new approach and focusing on engaging their people and helping them perform at extraordinary levels.

3. Redefine Engagement

Engagement and retention will become a top priority. Our work environment, management practices, benefits and recognition programs, career development, and corporate mission all contribute to engagement. As we move forward to seek to attract and grow long-term employees, we will re-imagine employee engagement in a new, integrated way. And rather than survey annually during the review process, we will develop new tools that will allow us to monitor engagement continuously.

4. Career Development

As an employer, we need to provide internal talent mobility and career growth in our own organisation. 2015 is the time to build a talent mobility strategy which includes open access to internal positions, employee assessment tools, interview guides, and leadership values that focus on internal development. It means that we must take into account the fact that we are a growing company with a sister company about to scout for talent, right next door.

5. Redesign and Reskill the HR Function

HR itself is changing dramatically and we need to continuously skill our own teams to maintain our relevance and value. HR isn’t all about paperwork and filing systems… it’s about training the people as well as the trainers. It’s about opening the doors for development. HR itself, as a business function, is undergoing radical change. Today’s HR organisation is no longer judged by its administrative efficiency – it is judged by its ability to acquire, develop, retain, and help manage talent. And more and more HR is being asked to become ‘Data-Driven’, and to understand how to best manage people based on real data, not just judgement or good ideas. As a result of these changes, in 2015 MYTCL will focus on innovation, new ideas, and leveraging technology to drive value in HR.

6. Diversity in Employment

MYTCL aims to attract a diverse workforce which reflects the communities in which we operate. We remain committed to respecting the various differences which exist among our people, while also recognising the benefits which come from a diverse workforce. MYTCL’s policy on fairness, respect and diversity of employment guides our people on the importance of maintaining a work environment that is inclusive and offers opportunities to all people based on merit.

98 | Sustainability Report


Human Resources

During the 2014 year, MYTCL’s female participation rate was a total of 10.9% of the total workforce compared to 11.4% in 2013. We recognise that while this is a low proportion, it is consistent with the industry history of this legacy mine. Intentions to increase this strength have allowed female workers the rights to apply for many jobs not previously available to educated women. In 2015 there will be a strong development in the environmental areas that may have a positive impact on the female population of the workforce.

7. Casual Labourers to Contract Employee Evolution

In 2015 there will be yet again another escalation in the employment considerations for MYTCL and Casual Labourers. The General Manager took a close look at the entire workforce and concluded that although there are more than enough employees currently hired into Contract positions in MYTCL, that sustainable education and labour assistance should be provided to our neighbouring villages. This decision prompted the hiring of candidates who were currently Casual Labourers into newly created contract positions, and will take course over the 2015 year. This addition to the workforce will strengthen the future generations for MYTCL, encourage cooperation and support of the villages, and show that the MYTCL priority to take this action was in accordance to our corporate social responsibility programs.

8. Human Asset Expansion & Safety

The MYTCL organisation has come to its peak in employee recruitment, and in 2015 there will be approximately 1,000 employees on site who have work experience under 1-year. This staggering fact will challenge the Human Resources and Training Department to be at their best. With such an increase in new employees the management of specific safety training and development for each employee becomes a test in management services. Safety and operations go hand in hand at MYTCL, and safety precedes all activities on and off-site. As part of the HR objective for 2015-16, the sustainable development of employee safety-driven training is a focal point.

9. Open Doors

The Open Door Policy at MYTCL continues to be an important part of the growth and development of the organisation. With the implementation of the Labour Organisations in Myanmar in 2013, the need for a very transparent and easily accessible management team became fundamental for building relationships and fortifying equal and fair treatment of all employees, regardless of position and ranking. This open flow of communication is available for any and all employees from their direct supervisors. And if an employee is not satisfied with the results at this level then there are more doors that are open at higher levels, as well as support groups such as the CMBLO of MYTCL to assist in understanding the company policies and Myanmar labour laws and regulations that MYTCL adheres to.

10 Bottom Line: Engagement, Leadership and Development

At MYTCL we maintain a commitment to our employees to ensure a safe and rewarding workplace, and one which also encourages their personal development. This commitment has been reinforced with enhanced operational development management, and with our improvement process to drive our culture for our people. Our leaders are given feedback on their leadership impact and how the culture is improving. This is an important aspect as to how we develop our leadership, and has been built into other staff development initiatives.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS Many of the policies and procedures at MYTCL are in evolution to adapt to the change of the governmental legislations, as well as to the economic growth that Myanmar is experiencing. Employee benefits are part of the constant considerations for improvement by HR in Beijing Head Office. The Company Conditions of Employment are fitted appropriately with all laws and regulatory benefits, as well as with exceptional health and welfare benefits such as Free of Charge Medical Annual and Biannual Checkups, Training and Development, a Provident Fund, Retirement Bonuses, Business Travel and Clothing Allowances, and also Annual Production Bonuses for employees of MYTCL. Important benefits include: Social Security: MYTCL supports the Social Security Scheme for the emergency and special medical care in such case as illness, sustaining injury from work accidents, maternity and death. Mine Owner’s Liability: MYTCL complies with the Mine Owner’s Liability (Insurance) to all permanent and contract employees. Provident Fund: The Provident Fund has been established in order to gain retirement funding at the end of MYTCL employee’s careers. MYTCL and each employee who voluntarily join this program contribute 3% each of the employee salary to a special bank account for the Provident Fund. Upon retirement the employee is awarded the full sum of their fund.

CMBLO: Copper Mine Basic Labour Organisation, established by the employees of MYTCL was registered with the New Myanmar Labour Law in 2012, attracting 800+/- members from the mining company to work hand in hand with the Administration and Human Resources Management of MYTCL. Now in its 3rd year of continuance, the CMBLO has grown into a steady support structure of the company employees and has elected its 2nd batch of Executive Committee Members. MYTCL sponsors the work of the CMBLO and also the objectives and priorities of the ILO; to build on employee and company relationships and to create a work environment that is mutually beneficial and healthy. As part of the employee benefits, additional funding and allowances are made to CMBLO activities to inspire and support this important partnership. These included time off with pay beyond the required laws, business trip support in-country and overseas, as well as a donation for the construction of an office building and support for office equipment in 2014.

The MYTCL Family The S&K Community, the Villagers and the surrounding area of the MYTCL Mine Site have become family over the course of the years, and although ownership has changed, the Myanmar National people are the constant that has endured the ages. MYTCL is proud to have been adopted into this ancient network of friends, family and neighbours, and whenever possible joins in with the cultural celebrations and festivals of the people and of the different religions of the area. Engaging in donations to the community itself, or directly to monks and monasteries for religious days, MYTCL provides social welfare to many events during the course of the year, and also joins in with the fun. For employees and their families Sport Day Activities occur every year in December, there is an annual Water Festival, Fun Fair during Independence Day, as well as monthly religious days when holy traditions are respected and charities offered to the monks. Along with these special events there also follow some regular activities to help make life easier within Mine Town. Housing Allowance is provided to all permanent employees, water purification centres are operated and maintained by MYTCL, road-works and electrical works are completed, and security and general assistance are offered to the entire Community in any crisis, or time of need. Myanmar Yang Tse Copper Limited not only cares for the Community, we are honoured to have become a part of it.

BUILDING CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY In recent years, concerns about sustainability and social responsibility have become an increasingly high profile issue in many countries and industries, none more so than the mining industry in Myanmar. Sustainable development in MYTCL’s corporate mining context defines a commitment to continuous environmental and socioeconomic improvement, from operations through to closure and post-closure management. Building CSR for MYTCL relates to activities in terms of lifelong values achieved through the following: economic development – investment of generated revenues to ensure the future development and long-term livelihood of the communities; environmental protection – the minimisation of environmental impacts of natural resource exploitation and land rehabilitated to allow successive use; social cohesion – the minimisation of social and cultural disruption to the communities, maintenance of stakeholder dialogue and transparency of operation. This is the fundamental concept of Corporate Conscience, and it is identified through the development of CSR programs, with the direction of their focus pinpointed onto the community.

Community - CSR

DEFINING MYTCL BEST PRACTICE – ISO 26000

When it comes to CSR and the activities that MYTCL has completed over the course of the 2014 fiscal year, highlighted is the key element of cooperation that has made the year a success. Government officials, MEHL partners, communities, company employees and management have unified in transparent and open communications of the processes and goals of the projects initiated. There are a wide variety of definitions and strategies aligned with CSR within the international arena, but the underlying message is the same in every case. The European Commission makes this message clear as it defines CSR simply as:

“the responsibility of enterprises for their impacts on society”. There is a secondary component that is closely related to CSR, and which is often confused as one in the same, but is quite different in its function. This is Community Development: “Community Development is the process of increasing the strength and effectiveness of communities, improving people’s quality of life and enabling people to participate in decision making to achieve greater long-term control over their lives.”

International Council on Mining & Metals

At Myanmar Yang Tse Copper Limited we undertake voluntary actions directly related to both the CSR and Community Development strategies, and have integrated a process to address social, environmental and ethical human rights within our business operations, closely consulting and collaborating with our stakeholders. Efforts focus on the approach to either improve the living conditions (economic, social, and environmental) of local communities, or to reduce the negative impacts of our mining projects. By definition, MYTCL’s voluntary actions are those that go beyond legal obligations, contracts, and licence agreements. Combining these 2 functions into the core strategy of MYTCL’s CSR and CSD (Community and Social Development) Programs creates an environment recognised as following Best Practice in community relations, and although the concept is new to the region, and at times not clearly understood by all members of the community or government, the collaborations that occur are fundamental in maintaining the Best Practice scenario. In 2015, the improvements that will be made to ensure Best Practice principles are met include the implementation of ISO 26000 as a guide and framework to integrate and to implement social responsibility into our values and practices. This ISO focuses on sustainable development, growth and change that maintains and improves the natural environment, human resources, and society upon which we depend. ISO 26000 provides information and decision-making tools for MYTCL to identify ways that we can improve our impacts on the people and place that we work and live in, and thereby become

“more valuable and valued members of our society”.

SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND MINING

MYTCL’s CSR programs usually invest in infrastructure (potable water, electricity, schools, roads, hospitals, hospital equipment, drainage repairs, etc.), building social capital (providing information on HIV prevention, workshops on gender issues, information on family planning, improving hygiene, etc.), and building human capital (providing for high-school and university education, training local people to be employed by our mining enterprise or to provide outsourced services, promote and provide skills on micro-business, aquaculture, crop cultivation, animal rearing, textile production), and so on. We have voluntarily allocated a CSR budget in cooperation with MEHL and chosen to undertake CSR programs in order to build better relations with the local mining communities in which we operate and in response to the requests from our neighbouring villagers in times of need. The plan for 2015-16 is to move away from the short-term achievements and to look at more life-long and sustainable opportunities for the communities that are engaged with us. Our sustainable community development programs will be established to contribute to contribute to the long-term strengthening of community capability. Globally, the most sustainable beneficial legacies that community development programs around a mining and metals operation may leave are in the skills and capacities that training, employment and education programs for local people provide. The collaborations for the 2015-16 CSR Programs of MYTCL will push for a focus generating off-site growth and potential, and following or adapting international success projects. The essential element of these sustainable community development programs will be that they can survive without input from MYTCL, especially after the mining project is finished. Thus, community sustainability can be supported by mining practices that help convert one local asset, namely non-renewable natural resource capital, into other local assets, namely sustainable social, economic and environmental capital.

Corporate Conscience is a focus on how organisational wealth that is created is allocated and distributed to those who were involved in the process of value creation, directly or indirectly. It is a decision to share fairly amongst all the stakeholders that are involved in all the value creation processes that are intertwined and interdependent in nature. (Capra & Pauli, 1995, Stead & Stead, 2004)

In 2015-16 the CSR objectives will integrate Corporate Conscience, and establish a more unified approach with the communities on the whole, and carefully separate the needs of the people from the needs of the government agencies. MYTCL and MEHL are building on this foundation and developing our Corporate Conscience regarding our commitment to share the value created with different stakeholders in the most equitable and ethical manner.

INTEGRATING SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

Mirroring the United Nations Inclusive Development Programme (UNDP), MYTCL initiated an Integrated Development Action Plan (IDAP) to address the issues of sustainability and community development. The foundation of this action plan rests on the UNDP platform:

“Development can be inclusive - and reduce poverty - only if all groups of people contribute to creating opportunities, share the benefits of development and participate in decision-making.” There had been legacy programs in place with the previous ownership, but they lacked the function of separation from the mine once completion had been established. There were immediate goals such as training programs and donations, but there was no long-term planning for development and infrastructure, or for the environment and community growth. There was little community input. The focus was on benefits directly in relation to mining. A shift away from the mine and onto the community itself was missing from the formulae. In 2015 the on-going application of community development initiatives will move forward to instigate close consultation with all relevant stakeholders, with the primary purpose to improve livelihoods and employment opportunities and to establish new alternatives to lessen the communities’ reliance on the mine through micro-enterprise and SME development (Small and Medium Enterprise). It is intended that a partnership between the mine, the community, reputable local NGOs with suitable implementation capacity, and the government can take on the responsibility for development of essential human resources and social sector infrastructure, which is so sorely lacking in the area. Mine closure preparations at MYTCL are estimated to commence within a projected 15 years, and it obviously essential to continue to implement and improve upon IDAP development. It is also intended that the MYTCL plan will establish a national prototype model for sustainable social and economic development of communities confronted with eventual mine closure and the loss of associated employment and infrastructure. Successful implementation of the plan in the country’s largest mine would provide a valuable model which could be replicated in other projects in Myanmar, and will contribute significantly to developing best practice in the country’s mining industry on sustainable community development and mine closure. Utilising participatory methodologies to ensure ‘ownership’ by all key stakeholders, the following activities will be included for consideration in the 2015-16 CSR Budgets:

•

Facilitation of a consultative process with all key stakeholders to develop and build consensus concerning an overall strategy to establish a diversified sustainable local economy, and to identify a number of projects (agriculture, health, environment ,SMEs) that will be implemented by MYTCL and become entrenched before mining moves away from the area.

•

Evaluation and preparation of detailed cost estimates and/or economic models and implementation schedules for selected projects.

•

Identification of improved agriculture and livestock production systems that could be promoted through various inputs (e.g. identification of markets; preparation of training materials for use by a foundation and/or government agencies concerning suitable land use, improved seed varieties, fertiliser and pest management techniques, development of water sources and irrigation systems for small scale gardens, poultry production systems, etc.).

•

Identification of means to promote and establish SME’s and HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis support projects.

•

Preparation of an overall plan for MYTCL based on selected sustainable projects, and which clearly identifies sources of funding and revenue flows, potential partners, cost estimates, implementation schedule, roles and responsibilities, and monitoring and evaluation processes.

•

Provision of training to assist in creating partnerships between various organisations, Government Agencies, NGOs, target villages, and international aid agencies, and to build the capacity of MYTCL and its local constituents to implement selected projects.

•

Development of a linkage between the mine, the community and the government.

It is through the continuing evolution of these activities that the CSD Team serves its function. The key purpose of this team is to act as a unified committee of diverse members, designed to implement the plan and to act as the catalyst between all parties.

COMMITMENT, COMMUNITY & CULTURE – THE CSD TEAM

Stakeholder engagement officially commenced on March 28, 2013 with a pilot project focused on the World Bank/ICMM/ESMAP Community Development Toolkit. The appointed 2014 CSD Team, comprised of elected leaders representing the directly impacted villages near the project, consulted over the year with the group the main problems and concerns facing the villages they represented. Throughout the 2014 year the CSD Team brought these issues to MYTCL management and village issues were systematically addressed in a timely manner with resolutions put in place that satisfied all parties when possible. Where immediate resolutions could not be realised, continuing open and transparent communication and collaborations continue between the company and the community. The CSD program and process is based on 10 Community Rebuilding Principles. 1. Start where the people are. 2. Build relationships; then introduce new ideas, showing how they meet identified needs. 3. Keep projects simple. 4. Involve as many community people as possible in all activities from the start. 5. Train people close to their home communities. 6. Train in locally acceptable ways (e.g. methods, facilities). 7. Train trainers who can train others. 8. Involve local leadership. 9. Cooperate with governments. 10. Encourage interdependent relationships vs. dependent or totally independent relationships. Over the course of 2014, the CSD Team worked closely with all the parties involved with community affairs and planning, and the intimate relationship established between MYTCL and the communities within the region grows with every year. The CSR Projects and budget for 2014, as of the beginning of 2015, were near completion with a contingency remaining for supplementary works to be accomplished before the end of the fiscal year in April. CSR projects and Mobile Medical Care were managed through the CSD Team, and as the execution of the planning became reality and scheduled dates turned requests into action, the villages began to recognise and show appreciation for the value that MYTCL would bring to the region. Libraries, schools, educational assistance and retirement funding, roadways and other much needed infrastructure and necessities, such as electricity and water supply, emerged through the public consultations conducted between the CSD Team, the communities and the government. 2015-16 will be a year for the CSD Team to focus on its commitment and true purpose, on maintaining cultural cohesion between the company and the Myanmar people, and as the unified group of diverse individuals representing their independent community. Focus will be applied to the continued training and internal development of this team, adding to its effectiveness in responding to the communities, and representing the company as liaisons working towards mutual benefit for both sides.

Community - CSR

The Tebinkan Village dam had been a CSR and community development request made early in 2014 and was completed by local contractors by mid July for $7,851.00 USD, placing value back into the community by utilising local labour forces.

This Electricity Project was the largest of all of the 2014-15 CSR and CSD Projects. Under the guidance and leadership of the Regional Authorities, the contractors were chosen and monitored for quality through a series of committees orchestrated by the Regional Government. Electricity was happily received by the villages of Yegyibin, Myayake, Myasein, Shwepankhine and Thedawgyi with a budget of $232,876.00 USD, almost half of the annual allotted expenditures for the season.

The MYTCL/MEHL Scholarship Program was managed by the Township and Regional Authorities to ensure that fair and equal distribution of needed scholastic assistance was provided to the village children within the area of the S&K Project. Coming in at a figure of $66,414.14, it was the second largest cash contribution of the MYTCL and MEHL voluntary budget for sustainable community development in the 2014-15 year.

TAILINGS RECLAMATION PROJECT COMPLETION

On May 2nd of 2014 the Tailings Reclamation Project came to an end. Despite the efforts of government authorities to negotiate rehabilitation with the local villagers who occupy the tailings stockpiled lands outside of the lease of MYTCL, the villagers have refused to accept the offers. Kangone Village had more than 65 acres of contaminated soil and tailings removed, and then covered with top-soils from the Paungga Dam area. The soil is rich in nutrients and should sustain small gardens and create a village expansion area.

Project Completion Due to Land Settlements

The remaining acres are for the most part located in the Dondaw village areas, and these are the villagers whom have refused to allow their lands to be rehabilitated as part of the Tailings Reclamation Project of MYTCL and MEHL. Of 156 acres, 83.26 have been 100% completed and a fresh and natural look has returned to the villages.

An agreement was reached in the MEHL and MYTCL JMC Meeting in March of 2014 that if the villagers continued to disagree, and that the government officials could no longer negotiate with the villagers in a timely manner, and that the Project which was expected to clear the complete 156 acres would be stopped until further notice. Operating with an estimated budget of 1.95 million USD for completion of the project in full, MYTCL and MEHL collectively donated 1,125,970.41 USD for the costs of rehabilitation when the project was declared closed. MYTCL and MEHL are relieved that the villagers who had agreed, have had a successful rehabilitation program implemented that will inevitably change the future health of the villages, and of its people. On the other hand, the completion of the project is a disappointing affair as the villagers occupying the contaminated lands outside of the lease not only have disagreed to allow MYTCL to clean up their lands, but that they are also continually trespassing onto the MYTCL property and removing, or in some cases stealing materials for their sedimentary mining undertakings. Their activities on the waste dumps of the Sabetaung Mine are interfering with the environmental encapsulation and protection that is on-going in this area. Not only are these trespassers removing the closure layers that seal in the hazardous waste from exposure and generation of acid, but they are endangering the present conditions of the environment by doing so. Nevertheless, this was an event that many people are pleased about. The beautiful countryside around the mine-site has, in part, been rejuvenated back into healthy and environmentally safe surroundings.

MOBILE MEDICAL TEAM AND HEALTH CARE Under the Mobile Medical Team program, over 19,000 patients have been treated in 2014 within the villages surrounding the S&K mine, totalling just over 13,500USD for in-home patient care, while another 61,594.32USD were utilised for Mine Town Hospital and Clinic facility costs and 101,400USD was allocated for overall medical management and staffing of the MYTCL programs combined. Within the Medical Care Program, there are 3 doctors, 6 nurses, 5 nurse aides and another 3 general helpers, totalling 17 health members participating as a Mobile Medical Team. An Ambulance was also donated for emergency use for the local villagers, and another donated by MEHL for the Mobile Medical team use. From Monday through Friday, Mobile Medical Teams can be found in a scheduled village, assisting with basic health issues and passing along information from the CSD Team works. In addition to the monthly group health seminars held at the Mine Town State High School, the health care staff members travel to villages to hold educational talks at the local schools and in village elders’ homes. They work with government health officials during Clinic Days, they visit every pregnant woman and every sick child under the age of 5, providing all with individual health care and education. These doctors and aides visit schools and homes to inspect sanitation and personal hygiene practices. Toilets and drinking water supply is also inspected. As a part of the Nutrition Promotion Program, medical staff have been monitoring the weight of children under the age of 3 since 2003. There are also a suite of public health activities that focus on ante-natal care that Medicines Used and Facility Costs (USD) (Jan - 2014 to Dec -2014 ) USD -$ 0.00 0.00

Knight Piésold Pty Limited (Knight Piésold) has provided consulting services to the S&K mine since 1999. The work undertaken has involved design of Heap Leach Pads, Tailings Storage Facilities and provision of advice on a range of operational issues associated with the processing of ore mined. More recently, Knight Piésold has been involved with the development of conceptual closure plans and closure designs for each closure element (domain) within the S&K site. These studies have been undertaken through application of good international practice within the regulatory framework that applies in Myanmar and the management systems adopted by Myanmar Yang Tse Copper Limited (MYTCL) at the S&K mine. Knight Piésold has reviewed site data provided by MYTCL in preparation of closure concepts for the mine site and the detailed closure design that has been undertaken for the Sabetaung open pit. The key issue to be addressed in this process is the reduction in potential for changes to parameters associated with water quality following closure. The transition from closure concepts to closure design will be carried out by considering each specific domain and application of the conceptual objectives specified for that domain. The design is then placed into the conceptual framework to assess its conformity with the overall closure objectives. The closure designs will be progressively developed as the elements within each domain reach a point where their final design is known and conditions within the domain can be determined with sufficient accuracy to provide an acceptable level of certainty for design. The overall closure plan will become part of the site Environmental Management System and, therefore, integrate with the other environmental management plans and the associated monitoring and reporting requirements. This will enable the potential for improved performance to be undertaken through the life of the mine and the application of research and industry development of closure to be included in plan reviews. It is anticipated that the design of each domain will include provision for productive land use following agreement that closure objectives have been achieved. We look forward to our continued partnership in this closure project with MWMCL and its successful implementation.

Life of Mine Closure and MYTCL Objectives

Mining and minerals processing operations may have significant adverse impacts on the health and safety of employees and local communities if the hazards are not quantified and then proactively managed through the mine life cycle. The environmental release of hazardous substances can cause toxic and long-term chronic health effects for employees and for communities close to, downwind or downstream from operations. It can also compromise environmental values that are critical to the long-term sustainability of local communities, such as food and water supplies. The key objective of successful mine closure for MYTCL is to ensure that the future public health and safety of the community is not compromised. The mine closure phase can also introduce increased safety risks to employees, who, faced with mine closure and consequent loss of employment may have reduced motivation and morale, which can lead to workplace safety issues. World-wide affected communities, non-government organisations, scientists and the medical community are demonstrating growing interest in public health and safety issues related to the mining industry, and have high expectations on industry performance. These emerging trends demonstrate the importance that MYTCL has in developing proactive engagement strategies with employees, local communities and other stakeholders on health and safety aspects of the closure process. The future of the S&K Project operated by MYTCL is dependent on the legacy it leaves. Our reputation is affected if long-term detrimental environmental issues emerge because they have not been appropriately addressed. MYTCL recognises that we need to demonstrate today that we can effectively close the S&K Project with the support of the communities in which we operate. Mine closure is a process. It refers to the period of time when the operational stage of a mine is ending or has ended, and the final decommissioning and mine rehabilitation is being undertaken. Mine completion ultimately determines what is left behind as a benefit or legacy for future generations. The overall objective of mine completion is to prevent or minimise adverse long-term environmental, physical, social and economic impacts, and to create a stable landform suitable for some agreed subsequent land use. Since the beginning of the MICCL period of ownership, effective as of 1998, Mine Closure Planning has been in motion. These activities followed a Conceptual Closure Plan as outlined in the EMS, ECP and IMS, consisting of topsoil collection and progressive rehabilitation of key areas within the lease project areas. MYTCL has escalated the process and adopted the standard of the operational stages of mine closure, continuing with revegetation and minor areas of rehabilitation, while land-forming for future closure commences as the initiation of progressive mine planning. It is important to indicate that the S&K Project has undergone in the past 2 years, 2012-2014, extensive expansion of the mine’s development, and the majority of closure planning has taken on the form of final closure preparations through land-forming and design for final encapsulation. Top-soil volumes collected and required for site-wide encapsulation and rehabilitation have been calculated and allocated to storage areas and facilities following international standards of storage.

In the locations from which soils are removed, aquaculture projects are to be considered for the establishment of sustainable ecosystems. Water management becomes an integral part of the closure process, and in 2015 these areas have begun to be prepared for the future rehabilitation for final land use and environmental restoration. Drains and fresh water ponds are being excavated into a self-sustained network of design, while their soils are separated, stored, seeded and preserved for future use.

Sabetaung Closure with International Guidance

Planned mine closure and completion is still at an early stage of development around the world and there are only a few examples of mine closure planning being applied from conception through to the end of the mine life. This is largely due to the timeframe of most mining operations and the relatively recent development of integrated mine closure planning. MYTCL’s Mine Closure planning, quite simply understood, addresses the progressive completion of the S&K Project and follows the international guidelines and themes outlined in the Leading Practice Sustainable Development Program created by the Australian Government’s Department of Industry Tourism and Resources. As an integrated part of Mine Closure, MYTCL has defined that the following essential elements are required to achieve mine closure and completion in the context of sustainable development: • recognising and addressing the issues that the S&K mining operation needs to consider in its planning for closure and completion; • the development of a risk management approach to mine closure planning that applies from mine operations to post closure and integrated with whole-of-mine-life planning; • the closure activities associated with each step in the mine life cycle including establishment of a progressive rehabilitation system; • the processes and tools that can assist the S&K mining operation to achieve good practice in mine closure and completion; and • the need for engagement with communities and regulators in establishing and implementing closure outcomes and practice.

Aligning with international standards and good to best practices, MYTCL has engaged the consultancy firm of Knight Piésold to develop the design and closure criteria for the S&K Project as a Conceptual Closure Plan. Also, now that the stages of closure are beginning in specific areas of Sabetaung pits and the adjoining facilities, MYTCL has developed in cooperation with Knight Piésold a Detailed Closure Plan for the Sabetaung features. The scope of work that will be executed by Knight Piésold will consist of 10 tasks which together form an integrated pit closure design for the Sabetaung Main Pit and areas: Task 1 – Data Review and Update Concept Closure Plan; Task 2 – Design of Pit Closure Landform. Preparation of a landscape concept for the pit surface following backfill that links in with surrounding mining landforms; Task 3 – Site Visits and Draft Plan Workshop; Task 4 – Geotechnical Investigation. A detailed design and construction methodology for the in-pit seepage barrier; Task 5 – Hydrogeological Modelling and Pit Cut-off Design. A detailed review of the pit domain hydrogeology and its influence on the pit backfill; Task 6 – Pit Backfill Design. A detailed pit backfill design and construction methodology to mitigate and manage ARD and groundwater contamination risks; Task 7 – Closure Cover Design. A detailed design and construction methodology for the pit closure cover system; Task 8 – Monitoring Installation Design; Task 9 – Reporting; and Task 10 – Contract Management.

Mine Closure

SABETAUNG SOUTH ENCAPSULATION

The mine closure plan is a living document that will be continually reviewed and revised over the mine’s life. The level of detail will vary as the mine matures and knowledge is gained on the significant issues to be addressed in the mine plan and options for dealing with them through closure. MYTCL’s approach in developing the mine closure plan is to segregate the mine into specific areas or domains. Each domain will be treated as a separate entity for detailed work plans, but within an overall plan which addresses the integration of the domains. The S&K Project will be segregated into the following domains: • • • • • • • •

ore processing — plant site workshops and hydrocarbon storage areas waste rock dumps (mineralised and barren) tailings storage facility process water and raw water dams pits or voids (underground declines) access roads, exploration tracks and service area infrastructure camps and accommodation areas

Each site is unique and the specification of domains will depend on the final plans for landform, the works to be done and the potential long-term risk to the environment. Each area (for example waste rock dump, pit, plant site and workshop) is given its own unique domain and project status and managed as an individual entity. The ability to progressively rehabilitate sections of the mine site as they become available is an important way of reducing the long-term closure liability. Benefits of progressive rehabilitation include: • • • • •

reduction of the overall un-rehabilitated ‘footprint’ of the mine; an ability to trial various options and demonstrate rehabilitation outcomes to the wider community; showing commitment to stakeholders and employees that the mine has an active mine rehabilitation program; reduction of the overall closure costs; and the reduction of the risk of failure and ultimate liability.

Throughout the mine’s life, closure strategies will be regularly reviewed to ensure they are appropriate, address the major issues for closure, and remain aligned to community expectations and regulatory requirements. As part of the mine’s change management system, alterations to the mine operating plan, expansions, new pits, waste dumps, or changes to the operating process will trigger a review of closure risk and review of the plan. Using the risk-based approach a review of the underlying risks to the business and closure will be undertaken on a regular basis to confirm that the controls remain adequate and the risk exposure has not materially changed since the last risk review. The collection of appropriate and accurate data through monitoring programs is critical to this process and will assist MYTCL in decision-making. This review process provides an ideal opportunity for engagement with stakeholders through community committees and the building of relationships that develop trust and confidence in the operation. An annual review of the closure plan is standard practice for MYTCL and also the regulators as they require annual statistics on areas of disturbance, areas rehabilitated in the previous year and areas yet to be rehabilitated. The closure plan is a key reference document during this process, as it demonstrates the philosophy and strategies to be undertaken. The level of detail reflects the complexity and the maturity of the site. MYTCL acknowledges the concept of ‘mine completion’ as the goal of mine closure. Assigned a high priority by all levels of management, the integration of the elements outlined in the Mine Closure programs and in the adoption of the Leading Practice Sustainable Handbook with day-to-day operations management will allow the S&K Project to reach a state where mining lease ownership can be relinquished and responsibility accepted by the next land user. To achieve this in an environment of increasing regulatory and stakeholder expectations will require superior outcomes developed and implemented in consultation with local stakeholders. Not only will the implementation of this concept of mine completion result in a more satisfactory social and environmental outcome, but it can also reduce the financial burden of mine closure and rehabilitation.

“When one pulls at a single thing in nature, he finds that it is attached to the rest of the world.� Naturalist & Preservationist - John Muir


Closing Note from Operations Management All human activities have an impact on the environment, however without a life-sustaining environment all other activities cease to exist. It is because of this realisation that the mining industry has experienced exponential growth over the past decades in regards to accountability, and key words such as corporate social responsibility; environmental reclamation; community development; mine closure; and most importantly ‘sustainability’ have become an important part of the mining industry’s vocabulary. The 21st Century, it would seem, has become the era of sustainability. Building Lifelong Value reflects the sustainable development that we at MYTCL pursue each and every day of our operations, and at all levels. This report has added value through measured parameters in order to verify the vision we have set out as our mandate to maintain, control, and evaluate the impacts our mining activities have on the physical and socioeconomic environments of our region. Our progressive business model at MYTCL is designed to be evolving, flexible and compelled to be inspired by emergent technologies that are becoming available which stimulate preservation

and reduce the carbon footprint of the legacy mining activities of the S&K Project. As the global community changes its course and enters into an era of long-term planning, and focuses on changing one behaviour at a time internationally to meet the criteria of sustainability in all arenas of the mining industry, our focus and attention at MYTCL is also prioritised towards improving sustainable continuity. As we move forward into 2015 we emerge from the past year as a company that exercises it’s ‘Open Door Policy’ and continues to engage our communities with transparency, building bilateral commitments to sustainable development, while including key elements of environmental responsibility, social equity, economic health, and cultural vitality. The steps we take forward will be in unison with the international growth in this era of sustainability, and we will sustain our goals of a zero-incident strategy in regards to the community, the environment and our employees. We will continue to build lifelong values to live by today, and we will share them with you for the tomorrows to come. Have a safe year…
