The Arabian Peninsula is among the most water-scarce mining regions on earth. In that context, how an operation uses water is not a sustainability footnote — it is a core part of the licence to operate, and Corica treats it that way.
As a contractor, Corica operates to the water standards its clients and the host jurisdictions set, and to the Group's own discipline where that is higher. That means designing for water efficiency and recycling from the start, monitoring transparently, and managing tailings and process water as a safety issue rather than a compliance box.
Responsible arid-water stewardship also sits alongside the region's national visions, which tie mining growth to environmental and community standards. Corica's intent is to operate in a way that a good neighbour — and a demanding regulator — would recognise as sound.
