Robust practices informed by the aspirations and interests of Indigenous peoples and local communities.
Project plans that are environmentally and socially responsible, and effectively governed.
Seeking the Free, Prior and Informed Consent of Indigenous peoples.

Our sustainability approach reflects the importance of Fireweed’s commitment to sustainable mine development for its critical metals projects, integrating ESG principles with Indigenous peoples at the core (ESGI).
