Cerro Corona has proactive engagements with community organisations and local governments where it is a large supplier of potable water to the communities. During 2016 Cerro Corona invested over US$3m in developing and upgrading water systems for nearby communities. This financial figure is not a cost estimate but instead represents the actual amount spent by Gold Fields. During 2016 a climate change risk and vulnerability assessment was conducted for Cerro Corona. The assessment was based on the ICMM’s Mining Climate Assessment Tool. The tool gives insight into physical changes in precipitation, temperature, wind, and water stress levels from 2025 to 2045 based on 15 global climate models. The assessment included local communities and found that there is a risk of water availability constraints which could lead to reduced agricultural productivity.
