Our people and community is the strongest asset we have at Ta-Khoa. We aim to preserve this relationship and ensure the community benefits from the opportunities that Ta-Khoa project brings by prioritising the:

Safety and the good health of our employees and the community is a priority. We aim to champion occupational and community health and safety initiatives on site and in the community.
We will do this by:

ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
Our project will service demand for Asia’s growing lithium-ion battery industry in the movement toward a decarbonised economy.
We will work to the international environmental standards alongside community members, to ensure we limit our impact, work toward being a world-class green nickel mine, and provide practical solutions to a changing climate.
We aim to do this by:
- Complying to best practice international standards, set strong targets and be transparent in our progress
- Supporting the electric vehicle industry by providing responsibly-mined nickel sulphate
- Utilising the Hoa Binh hydro power plant to support our efforts to use renewable power sources.
