17 Sep 2025 CW Team

Dhawan, accompanied by run Misra, CEO of Hindustan Zinc, and the senior leadership team, toured Sindesar Khurd Mine – the world’s fourth-largest silver-producing mine – to witness the company’s technology-driven operations, ESG practices, and environmental stewardship. Discussions also focused on enhancing global collaboration, sharing best practices, and advancing responsible mining across South Asia. Hindustan Zinc is the council’s first new member since 2021.

Rohitesh Dhawan, President & CEO, ICMM, said:

"It has been a privilege to visit Hindustan Zinc’s operations in Rajasthan and see first-hand the integration of cutting-edge technology with ESG leadership. The path to a greener future runs through India – with its metals and minerals playing an essential role in enabling the global energy transition. To witness the deep commitment to sustainability, and to environmental and social responsibility, here on the ground has been truly inspiring. It reaffirms that world-class, responsible mining is very much happening here at the Sindesar Khurd Mine and across India. It is a powerful example of what is possible when we mine with principles."

Hindustan Zinc continues to advance its Sustainability 2.0 agenda, guided by science-based targets and a commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 or sooner. In 2024, the company was recognised as the world’s most sustainable metals and mining company for the second consecutive year by S&P Global’s Corporate Sustainability Assessment. It also became the first Indian metals and mining company with SBTi-validated 1.5°C-aligned targets.

In FY25, Hindustan Zinc reduced its GHG emissions intensity by 15 per cent compared to its 2020 baseline, while steadily increasing production. These milestones reflect the company’s approach to sustainable growth—balancing innovation, environmental responsibility, and long-term value creation for stakeholders.
