"Response to Business & Human Rights Resource Centre Enquiry"

North Mara Gold Mine Ltd (NMGML) hosted a visit by the Deputy Minister for Environment to conduct additional water samples and is currently awaiting the results of these samples. NMGML already has a comprehensive sampling programme in place in and around its licence areas and in relation to any water discharge. 

Any water discharged from the operation complies with the applicable regulatory requirements and is monitored regularly by the responsible authority. Allegations of human and livestock deaths in the area have been investigated by NMGML, in addition to the National Environmental Management Council and a Parliamentary Committee, and there was no evidence supporting these allegations.
