Our governance practices

Our corporate governance practices - which set the rules, relationships, systems, and processes by which MinRes is directed and controlled - are core to our stable operating environment.
Good governance supports us to actively and effectively manage our exposure to governance risks and opportunities, encouraging strong business performance and investor confidence.
