Miner's win-win cooperation strategy key to long-term success


Safety and sustainability
Adhering to Zijin Mining's principles, Rosebel prioritizes occupational health and safety, aiming for "zero workplace fatalities and zero occupational diseases". The company also strives to balance the development of mineral resources with their protection.
Rosebel follows standardized access requirements for contractors and organizes safety training for them. Through management measures such as "STOP" cards for violations and zero-tolerance rules, the mine achieved zero lost-time accidents in 2023-24 since the acquisition.
As an environmentally conscious corporate citizen, Rosebel is implementing several environmental initiatives, such as constructing a photovoltaic power plant and adopting electric mining trucks.
The photovoltaic power plant is of significant importance to both Suriname and Rosebel. Due to the continuous decline in water levels in the Brokopondo Reservoir, which powers the mine, hydropower supply has become increasingly strained. The photovoltaic power plant provides clean electricity directly to the mine during the day, allowing hydropower resources to be redirected to surrounding communities and industries, thereby supporting local economic development and helping Suriname maintain its position as one of the few "carbon-negative" countries.
