A Priority Requirement
Constant laboratory product control is essential to guarantee their quality. As a central element of production process control, Eramet Grande Côte’s laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment: X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, precision balances, etc. Each product from every stage of the process – from ore extraction to product loading onto ships – is analyzed by the laboratory to ensure that the quality meets the required specifications.
ISO Certifications
Eramet Grande Côte was the first mining company in Senegal to obtain ISO 14001 certification for its environmental management system in 2020. This certification was successfully renewed in 2024. This demonstrates the integration by each employee of the recommendations of this international standard. Best practices in this area are integrated into environmental management. Each major environmental issue, such as water and waste management, is also managed jointly with all stakeholders of the Resettlement Action Plan. Eramet Grande Côte has also obtained ISO 50001 certification in 2021. In this area as well, the company has demonstrated its commitment by implementing an energy management policy that meets the highest international standards.
