APPROACH TO TAXATION

As a mining company operating in multiple countries, our long-term sustainability and success depend on ensuring that the communities we rely on benefit from our presence. Taxation is one of the most significant and direct ways we can contribute to the wellbeing of our operating jurisdictions.

SUPPLY CHAIN AND LOCAL PROCUREMENT

From exploration to closure, B2Gold procures a diverse range of goods and services which include heavy equipment, process chemicals, fuel and oils, explosives, equipment parts, and professional services. Our corporate and site Supply Chain departments work with suppliers and contractors based on the principles of long-term partnership, fair competition, and ethical conduct.
