Modern mining is no longer just about resource extraction—it's about protecting the environment while ensuring operational efficiency. Sustainability is now a strategic pillar in the global stone and mineral industry.
At Tuna Mining, we integrate green mining principles into every stage of our operations, from exploration to delivery.

1. What Is Sustainable Mining?
Sustainable mining focuses on reducing the environmental, social, and economic impact of mining activities. It includes:
Protection of soil and water
Efficient use of energy
Comprehensive waste management
Environmental rehabilitation plans
2. Tuna Mining’s Environmental Commitment
We implement the following principles in all sites:
✅ Full compliance with Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs)
✅ On-site wildlife and vegetation protection protocols
✅ Water conservation and purification systems
✅ Dust and noise control barriers
✅ Use of low-emission, energy-efficient machinery
Our goal is to extract responsibly and operate transparently.
3. Waste Management & Recycling
In our facilities, we repurpose materials wherever possible:
♻️ Stone scraps are reused in filling operations.
♻️ Stone dust becomes raw material for road stabilization.
♻️ Packaging and pallets are reused or recycled.
These practices reduce landfill pressure and support circular production.
4. Land Rehabilitation & Biodiversity
Post-mining restoration is essential for ecological balance.At Tuna Mining, we carry out:
🌱 Tree planting and landscaping
🌱 Soil refilling and grading
🌱 Biodiversity support for native species
This ensures the mined land is returned to productive or natural use after operations.
5. Green Logistics & Carbon Footprint
Transport and logistics also contribute to environmental impact.We minimize our carbon footprint through:
🚛 Efficient route planning
🚢 Preference for bulk and sea freight
⚡ Adoption of electric machinery and fuel-efficient trucks
Each year, Tuna Mining reviews its carbon metrics and defines reduction strategies.
Mining and sustainability can—and must—coexist. At Tuna Mining, we prioritize responsible production, innovative recycling, and environmental rehabilitation.
Let’s build a greener future with natural stone that respects nature.
