	> The Mining Association of Canada has developed a world-leading Tailings Guide on 
best practices for safe and responsible tailings management. In the context of Towards 
Sustainable Mining, good practice means that a company’s tailings management system – 
everything from emergency preparedness and response plans to clearly defined employee 
responsibilities – are aligned with the requirements of this guide.
	> A second guidance document supports companies in developing site-specific manuals 
for the operation, maintenance, and surveillance of each of their tailing’s facilities. When 
adhering to Towards Sustainable Mining, mine sites are expected to develop and implement 
manuals that meet the requirements of this guide.
The Integrated Waste Landform (IWL) for 
the JNP has been designed to meet the 
strict requirements of national legislation 
(ANM Resolution No. 95/2022) and 
considers international standard criteria 
set out in the Global Industry Standard 
on Tailings Management (GISTM)
	> A senior management commitment to water stewardship is communicated to employees 
and communities of interest.
	> A water monitoring program includes measures to mitigate identified risks to water quality 
and quantity, and plans are in place to respond to any incidents.
	> Relevant employees and contractors receive water management training.
	> The mine participates in watershed governance groups and engages with communities of 
interest to understand how they are using water resources.
	> An assessment is conducted of broader impacts to the watershed from the site’s water 
management practices.
	> Water performance objectives are tracked and reported to both senior management and the 
public.
