ABOUT THIS REPORT
Guided by consultation with stakeholders,
Exxaro produces an integrated annual
report detailing our economic, social and
environmental performance. Following
feedback on earlier reports, we have
repositioned all content relating to sustainable
development in a dedicated section. So, while
sustainable development is inextricably woven
through our operations and our reporting,
interested readers will find all the information
required in the governance and sustainability
section.
In addition, case studies that illustrate our
approach are available on our website and
indicated in this report by for ease of
reference.
To facilitate discussion with stakeholders on
Exxaro's corporate reporting, particularly
this annual report, a blog will be run during
April 2009.
