Happy Fourth of July to our American workforce. #FourthofJuly

We engage with our local communities during every phase of the mining life cycle: • Exploration • Development, Design, and Permitting • Construction • Operations • Reclamation/Closure During each phase, we undertake activities such as implementing training programs, holding community information meetings, collaborating with local stakeholders to ensure a safe and communicative environment for all!

Our Greens Creek Mine and Coeur Alaska Kensington Mine co-sponsor a composting program at Kaxdigoowu Héen Elementary School in partnership with Juneau Composts! This program helps young plant lovers learn the benefits of turning household food waste into high-nutrient soil. Compost is great for gardening and our environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and diverting materials from landfills.

In our local communities, we have a direct economic impact of more than $855 million, including payment of taxes, non-government royalties and scholarships, gifts, and donations. The funds that go to local governments and community organizations support schools, hospitals, roads, and other essential infrastructure, along with vital economic development like job creation and skills training.

To ensure a consistent, high standard of #responsiblemining, we’re committed to protecting the #environment, both globally and at the local level of our operations. All of our sites implement programs to reduce freshwater and energy consumption, protect wildlife and habitats, reduce our carbon footprint, maintain local water quality, and rehabilitate the land once mining is complete.

We achieved this goal in 2023. Overall, women made up 10% of our total workforce and 22% at the professional/managerial level, and we have two women members of our Board of Directors, including our Board Chair who is also serving as our interim President & CEO. Featured are women employees who make important contributions across Hecla. #womeninmining #idwim2024 #mining
