Our Approach


 

Base Titanium is committed to minimising environmental impacts, while protecting and conserving biodiversity and driving environmentally responsible behaviour in our operation, and in our communities.

Working Together

Our employees are empowered to work in an environmentally responsible manner. We work with our host communities, the environmental authorities, conservation groups and expert organisations to sustain and improve the region’s rich biodiversity.

Biodiversity and
Conservation Program

Base Titanium operates a large indigenous tree nursery and arboretum to conserve and propagate trees of conservation importance. In collaboration with various specialists, Base Titanium also regularly undertakes habitat surveys to improve knowledge of the region’s rich biodiversity.
