Mine reclamation is no longer a final step but a strategic lever from the early stages of project planning. It directly impacts social acceptability, financing conditions, and insurance coverage. This panel will bring together experts from the financial sector, the insurance sector, the mining industry, and communities to discuss evolving expectations and requirements related to closure plans. The discussion will highlight how a proactive and credible reclamation strategy can reduce risks, improve access to capital, and build public trust.
