Karora Resources Inc. Publishes Inaugural ESG Report for 2021

08.04.2022 | 20:50 Uhr | CNW
TORONTO, April 8, 2022 - Karora Resources Inc. (TSX: KRR) (OTCQX: KRRGF) ("Karora" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it has published its inaugural Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") report for the 2021 year. The report is available for download on the Company's website at https://www.karoraresources.com/download/Karora-ESG-Report-2021.pdf.

Paul Andre Huet, Chairman & CEO, commented: "The release of Karora's inaugural 2021 ESG report is an important milestone in the evolution of the Company. In 2021, we developed a comprehensive ESG Strategy that will serve as a key foundation of our multi-year growth plan by integrating key ESG factors into our governance and risk management systems and introducing key metrics and targets for internal monitoring and external reporting. Karora's ESG program is overseen by its Board of Directors with a clear objective of introducing and maintaining policies and systems that reflect the Company's goal of being a leader among our peers in the ESG and climate space.

In 2021, Karora completed an ESG materiality assessment, which forms the foundation of our ESG strategy. The ESG materiality assessment identified and prioritized the ESG factors with the greatest potential to materially impact company value and our ability to achieve our strategic objectives over the short, medium, and long term. We will review our ESG materiality assessment annually to ensure that our priorities reflect the ESG factors with the greatest potential to impact our Company and our stakeholders. I believe the steps we have taken to formally integrate ESG factors into everything we do at Karora make us a much stronger Company for all our stakeholders."

Cautionary Statement Regarding the Higginsville Mining Operations

A production decision at the Higginsville gold operations was made by previous operators of the mine, prior to the completion of the acquisition of the Higginsville gold operations by Karora and Karora made a decision to continue production subsequent to the acquisition. This decision by Karora to continue production and, to the knowledge of Karora, the prior production decision were not based on a feasibility study of mineral reserves, demonstrating economic and technical viability, and, as a result, there may be an increased uncertainty of achieving any particular level of recovery of minerals or the cost of such recovery, which include increased risks associated with developing a commercially mineable deposit. Historically, such projects have a much higher risk of economic and technical failure. There is no guarantee that anticipated production costs will be achieved. Failure to achieve the anticipated production costs would have a material adverse impact on the Corporation's cash flow and future profitability. Readers are cautioned that there is increased uncertainty and higher risk of economic and technical failure associated with such production decisions.
