Resolute achieves ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certification status

Resolute Mining Limited (Resolute or the Company) (ASX/LSE: RSG) is pleased to announce it has been awarded the globally recognised International Organization for Standardisation (ISO) certification for the following standards across its group:

-  ISO:45001:2018 certification  Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S)

-  ISO:14001:2015 certification  Environmental Management Systems (EMS)

The ISO certifications were awarded by Bureau Veritas (BV). BV is an independent third-party assurance consultant and world leader in testing, inspection and certification.

Achieving and maintaining ISO certification is a central part of Resolute's Sustainability Strategy, and we are proud to be implementing OH&S and Environmental Management systems to monitor, manage, and deliver continuous improvement across the group.

Terry Holohan, CEO of Resolute commented:

"I am very pleased that this element, being one of our major platforms supporting our Group's Strategy to become 'industry leaders in ESG', as we formally pledged to all Stakeholders in our 2020 annual reports, has been formally certified by the distinguished Bureau Veritas - this industry-wide recognition is a significant demonstration of our commitment to our ongoing journey of Continuous Improvement.

I look forward to be able to advise over the coming months on the progress of our other major ESG elements as they achieve their planned significant milestones."
