Committed to caring for the planet
One planet, one priority is an attitude
This is our way of demonstrating our commitment both to the environment, and to our customers and suppliers. At MYTA we work with the absolute priority of improving our commitment to the Planet every day.
Integrated sustainability model
Each exploitation plan is followed by a restoration plan.
Where once there were mines, today more than 1,000 indigenous plant species grow, which means generate more than 20 tonnes of oxygen per year.
A total of 54 hectares have been restored.
- 660 almond trees have been planted generating 6600 kg of almonds per year.
- More than 32 tonnes of barley have been harvested annually for livestock feed.
- Pastures have been reseeded for local livestock farmers and roads have been provided for better access.
Thus, once mining is completed, we return the land to its original status,to be integrated into the landscapes of which it is part of or to be used for agricultural and livestock purposes.
