By GlobeNewswire Published on May 28, 2025, 02:00 IST All dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted. TORONTO, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kinross Gold Corporation (TSX: K; NYSE: KGC) ('Kinross' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce the publication of its 2024 Sustainability Report (the 'Report'), providing a fulsome summary of the Company's progress over the past year in furthering its Sustainability Strategy. 'Kinross' commitment to Sustainability is deeply rooted in our values and culture, and we remain steadfast in our commitment to responsible mining,' said J. Paul Rollinson, CEO. 'We prioritize health and safety and environmental stewardship, as well as providing sustainable benefits to the communities where we operate. Partnerships are core to our operating philosophy and we strive to be a trusted partner that delivers impactful community investments. I am proud of our new global approach to Health and Safety – Safeground – developed over the past three years in collaboration with our workforce. The projects and performance detailed in our Report highlight the importance of Sustainability in driving overall Company results and value for shareholders.' Now in its 17th year, Kinross' Sustainability Report, available at provides a comprehensive update to the Company's stakeholders on the progress made in 2024, and what the Company aims to achieve in 2025 and beyond. Our values are the foundation of Kinross' Sustainability Strategy, which is driven by three pillars: Workforce and Community, Natural Capital, and Climate and Energy. The Report details the Company's uncompromising approach to responsible mining that underpins its operational success. Kinross obtained limited, independent assurance of 49 Sustainability performance metrics reported for the fiscal year 2024, underscoring the rigor of Kinross' data collection and, following the Company's normal practice, has provided Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) indices. The 2024 Sustainability Report also reflects key elements of the International Sustainability Standards Board's (ISSB) reporting standards and begins the Company's transition to alignment with the European Union's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), including a European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) index. Kinross' leading performance continued to be externally recognized with high rankings and ratings in the mining and metals sector. This included recognition in the S&P 2025 Global Sustainability Yearbook for the 12th time since 2012, scoring in the 94% percentile in the Moody's ranking, and tied as the highest ranked Canadian miner in The Globe and Mail's annual governance review. The Company's Sustainability Performance was also recognized by the Canadian Council of Americas, with an award for Business Achievement in Sustainability.
