FPX Nickel formalizes its commitment to the Mining Association of Canada and its Towards Sustainable Mining program.
Company signs onto the UN Global Compact, aligning with global principles on human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption.
Initiatives support FPX’s strategy to responsibly develop the Baptiste Nickel Project while building trust with stakeholders and Indigenous communities.
FPX Nickel has announced two major steps to strengthen its sustainability leadership in 2025: joining the Mining Association of Canada (MAC) and signing onto the United Nations Global Compact. Together, the initiatives reinforce the company’s commitment to responsible mineral exploration and development as it advances the Baptiste Nickel Project.
“FPX’s core values have long emphasized environmental stewardship, transparent engagement, and responsible resource development,” said Martin Turenne, FPX Nickel’s President and CEO. “Our participation with these leading associations provides further validation of our commitment to best practices in our ongoing efforts to advance the Baptiste Nickel Project in the right way, and deliver value for stakeholders, Indigenous communities, and future generations.”

Through its membership in MAC, FPX has committed to the Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) initiative, a globally recognized framework that guides mining companies in managing environmental and social risks. The protocols require companies to demonstrate responsible practices in areas including environmental management, community engagement, worker safety, and ethical conduct.
In parallel, FPX has signed on to the UN Global Compact, the world’s largest voluntary corporate sustainability initiative. This move commits the company to aligning its operations with the Compact’s Ten Principles spanning human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. It builds on FPX’s previous pledge to contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
These milestones follow FPX’s publication of its inaugural Sustainability Report in 2024, underscoring the company’s intent to increase transparency and accountability. The company has pledged to provide regular updates on its ESG performance as part of a long-term strategy to embed responsible development practices across its operations.
