Mining and Metals Sector Supplement / G3.1 Guidelines Mapping Document
This document is designed for organizations that intend to use the Mining and Metals Sector Supplement (MMSS), released in March 2010
and based on GRI's G3 Guidelines, in combination with the GRI’s G3.1 Guidelines, released in March 2011. The G3.1 Guidelines feature a
range of new disclosures, adjusted disclosure requirements applied to the G3 version of the disclosures, and revised contextual content to
assist reporters.
The following table provides an overview of: (i) where the MMSS provides sector-specific guidance in addition to the G3 Guidelines, and (ii)
differences between the G3 and G3.1 Guidelines. All sector specific guidance provided by the MMSS is reflected. Those G3 disclosures not
