Sabina Gold & Silver (SBB) is the recipient of the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada’s (PDAC) Sustainability Award for 2022.

The PDAC Sustainability Award recognizes outstanding initiative and accomplishment in protecting and preserving the natural environment or establishing good community relations during an exploration program, or operation of a mine.

Sabina is being recognized for its efforts related to environmental responsibility and Indigenous engagement in Canada’s north. Sabina is committed to developing a world-class gold mine at the Project which benefits Nunavut and contributes to the sustainable development of its communities. The award will be presented during the PDAC Convention held March 7-10, 2022 in Toronto.

Sabina’s Vice President of Environment & Sustainability, Matthew Pickard commented on the recognition.

“After ten years of consultation with Nunavummiut of the Kitikmeot Region we have been able to advance a project that enjoys widespread community support and will result in meaningful contributions to northerners. I am proud of the work we have been able to accomplish with our community partners and look forward to developing a successful mine together.”

Bruce McLeod, President & CEO added,

“We are extremely pleased to receive this prestigious international award recognizing our accomplishments in sustainability. Considerable stakeholder engagement and consultation has resulted in the creation of what we believe are new standards for environmental protection in the North. We couldn’t have achieved this recognition without the hard work and contributions of the Kitikmeot Inuit Association and all the communities of the Kitikmeot Region.”
