Ecological Transformation in Mining.
We work with more than 100 mining sites worldwide, and while we operate at the highest level of health & safety, we help mining companies reconcile business productivity and environmental sustainability from:
● Regenerating resources such as fresh water and managing wastewater and
residues;
● Depolluting mining industrial processes thanks to hazardous waste and pollutants
treatment;
● Decarbonizing the activities of the mine.
We go beyond our portfolio of service offer and design fit-for-purpose sustainable services in accordance with industry needs. A current priority is to grow long-term water management service contracts with the mining industry and develop our activities in waste and hazardous waste management at mines, including mercury or other residues without creating an environmental legacy at the site. Veolia also began to work with mines to identify sustainable energy alternatives, such as biomass towards improved carbon footprint ambitions.

Veolia Group level, we target the elimination of 18 million metric tons of CO2 emissions by 2027. We aim to reduce GHG emissions by 90% by 2050 (compared to 2021, 35.4Mt emissions) and neutralize residual emissions.
When we focus on West Africa, there is a positive water balance for most mines, unlike other regions where there is a water deficit. What this means for miners is that they must remove contaminants from the water before releasing it into the environment, in compliance with the EPA regulations. Veolia is addressing these challenges in Ghana for instance, where our current industrial services are mostly directed to mines and relate to water and salt management.
