Our verdict

Endeavour Mining reports operational emissions reductions but has not achieved absolute group-wide declines. Scope 3 grew 50% since 2022. Targets are intensity-based, not validated by SBTi. The January 2024 CEO fraud scandal—$20M moved outside normal channels, falsified documents—undermines confidence in governance and data integrity across the organisation.

Endeavour Mining scores 28/100 (Significant gaps) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Companies can never pay for anything about their own score. Last verified October 2026.

That places Endeavour Mining joint 731st of 934 companies scored, and joint 4th of 13 in Mining & Extraction.

What is Endeavour Mining doing well, and where does it fall short?
