Aris Gold Corporation  (TSX: ARIS) (OTCQX: ALLXF) announces the publication of its first Sustainability Report highlighting its progress, initiatives and commitments in the areas of health, safety, environmental, social, and governance management for the calendar year 2020. The report is Aris Gold’s first annual disclosure of the Company’s approach and performance on a range of material environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics and the adoption of a new ESG governance strategy, as well as the Company’s plans and priorities for 2021 and beyond. The report is available on the Company’s website at www.arisgold.com under Sustainability.

Aris Gold’s 2020 Sustainability Report is guided by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Metals & Mining Sustainability Accounting Standard. The Company will look to fully align sustainability metrics with SASB in future reporting years. It also demonstrates how Aris Gold’s approach aligns to select UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Aris Gold CEO Neil Woodyer stated: “We are very pleased to release our inaugural sustainability report. Although much of the information in this report covers our performance for the 2020 calendar year, we underwent a transformation in 2021, renaming the Company from Caldas Gold to Aris Gold, appointing a new Board of Directors and management team, establishing a growth strategy, and introducing new or updated ESG strategies and commitments. The report provides an opportunity to share how we plan to translate these changes into meaningful value for all stakeholders, including our workforce and community partners.”
