• Health and safety – Coeur advanced its safety-first culture by launching its Critical Risk Management (“CRM”) program to all levels of the organization, helping the Company achieve a 12% decrease in the three-year trailing average in total reportable injury frequency rate. The CRM serves as a framework of tools and processes to help identify, reduce, control and eliminate high-risk exposures.

• COVID-19 mitigation – The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), a division of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, recognized Coeur for its cross-functional, technology-based COVID-19 response plan by granting the Company the2021 Mine Safety and Health Technology Innovations Award.

• Environmental stewardship – Coeur increased its Greenhouse Gas (“GHG”) emissions target to a 35% reduction in net intensity by the end of 2024 compared to a 25% reduction in net intensity by the end of 2025 as published in Coeur’s 2020 Responsibility Report.

“ESG is core to our business and integrated into our operations, activities and strategic decision making,” said Mitchell J. Krebs, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our strengthened GHG emissions net intensity reduction target is a meaningful step forward in our leadership position in terms of target-setting, disclosure and performance. We are committed to continuously enhancing the transparency and accountability of our ESG goals and evolving our practices to be an industry leader by safely and responsibly discovering and producing the raw materials vital for today’s modern society and generations to come.”

Elements of the Sustainable Accounting Standards Board (SASB) reporting framework for the Metals and Mining Industry, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) are incorporated into the Report.
