Our Values

Micon’s Technical Staff, Directors and Associates have and uphold the core values of honesty, integrity and respect for all people. Therefore, as a company and as individuals, we are committed to maintaining an ethical approach to all business undertakings and in providing advice to clients.

Ethics and Sustainability

Micon works transparently with clients, stakeholders and interested parties providing consistent, honest and clear advice on how to raise standards, achieve corporate policy commitments and meet or exceed good practice. We undertake to reduce our company’s environmental footprint on an ongoing basis. It is very important to us to ensure respect for the culture, heritage, beliefs, and participation of local communities in our activities. Respecting and promoting human rights within our business and with our clients is essential to Micon. Micon will never accept or give a bribe, facilitation payment, or other improper payment for any reason.

One of the first tasks that an exploration or mining company should undertake once a deposit has been identified, is to initiate a series of Environmental Baseline Studies (EBS). EBS include analyzing and quantifying the relevant environmental parameters for the area containing the footprint of the future mine as a record of the environmental conditions before any project activities have taken place.
