Rambler Employees Awarded the 2021 John T. Ryan
National Safety Award for Outstanding Safety Excellence
London, England - Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada - Rambler Metals and Mining plc (AIM: RMM) ("Rambler" or the "Company"), a copper and gold producer, explorer, and developer, is delighted to announce that the employees of its Ming Mine, Nugget Pond Mill and Goodyear's Cove facilities, are the recipients of the 2021 John T. Ryan National Award from the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum ('CIM') as the safest underground metal mine in Canada for 2021.
This honour is awarded by the CIM to the metalliferous mine that, in one or more complete calendar years, experienced the lowest reportable injury frequency per 500,000 hours worked in Canada.
Rambler reported zero lost time accidents at its Ming Copper-Gold Mine operations in both 2020 and 2021 and has now operated for over three years with no lost time injuries.
Rambler was awarded this national award in 2015 and 2017 while being selected for a regional award in 2019.
Toby Bradbury, President and CEO, commented:
"At Rambler, causing no harm is a mindset that we constantly strive for in all that we do - be it health, safety, the environment, our community or our equipment.
"That we have worked for such an extended period with no serious injury to any person is a reflection of the behaviour and attention paid by every individual employee and contractor in our operation. We do not take this for granted and we continually look for ways in which we can improve by providing feedback and training from all of our learnings.
"While as a Company, we are naturally proud and appreciate the recognition of the CIM in receiving this prestigious award, it is one that belongs to all the people engaged in our business and I extend my sincere thanks to each and every one of them."
