In Q2 2023, Lithium Ionic began using Onyen Corporation's ESG software to efficiently manage and monitor its sustainability reporting. This platform helps to capture, monitor, manage and report ESG risks and opportunities to ensure reporting accuracy to governments while fulfilling the requirements of international sustainability agencies such as SASB, GRI and TCFD, who are driving ESG frameworks and policies.

Environment

The environment is at the core of Lithium’s mission. Our goal of developing a commercial-grade lithium operation is motivated by our commitment toward helping nations achieve net-zero emissions.

As a mining company, we understand that our work will at times disrupt the environment. While the effects of mining activities on the environment are inevitable, Lithium Ionic is committed to minimizing its ecological footprint and reducing its carbon footprint through sustainable mining practices.

Our flagship Itinga Project in Minas Gerais state, Brazil has access to renewable hydroelectrical grid power, a notable feature of the project’s location. Itinga is also situated close to Jequitinhonha River, which will provide the Company with a reliable source of water that can be recycled during extraction.

Further, the Company’s exploration and appraisal programs are governed by regulatory bodies. We strictly comply with environmental legislation that restricts and prohibits spills, releases, and emissions of various substances produced as a result of exploration, development, and mining operations.

Social

Lithium Ionic is a non-discriminatory workplace. We seek to create a diverse and inclusive work environment, with visible minorities comprising more than 50% of the Company’s management team. We employ equitable practices in every facet of our business.

Our company is dedicated to ensuring the health and safety of all our workers, including employees and contractors. As such, a daily “Safety Dialogue” is in place at our project site for employees to exchange experiences of incidents or potential accidents in order to continuously improve its safety procedures and minimize such occurrences. We foster a work environment in which all individuals are treated with respect and dignity, and we have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to any form of harassment or violence.

Moreover, we believe that sustainable mining practices can have a direct positive impact on the host country and local communities. To this end, we are committed to advancing our project honestly, transparently, and in cooperation with the regional governments and impacted communities.
