The International Cyanide Management Institute (ICMI) announced today that Greenline Logistics’ Kpone Warehouse, located in Ghana, has been pre-operationally certified in compliance under the International Cyanide Management Code (Cyanide Code). The Cyanide Code is a voluntary industry program focused on the safe and environmentally responsible management of cyanide by companies producing gold and/or silver and by companies manufacturing, warehousing, and transporting cyanide.
ICMI has received and accepted a Detailed Audit Findings Report and a Summary Audit Report prepared by an independent professional third-party auditor who found the Kpone Warehouse in pre-operational compliance with the Cyanide Code’s Production Principles and Standards of Practice. The Summary Audit Report and Auditor Credentials Form are available on Greenline Logistics’ Signatory Producer Page on the Cyanide Code website. The Kpone Warehouse has been conditionally certified and must be audited within six months of its first warehousing of cyanide to evaluate its operational compliance with the Cyanide Code.
The Cyanide Code was developed under the aegis of the United Nations Environment Programme by a multi-stakeholder Steering Committee. The Cyanide Code is intended to complement an operation’s existing obligation to comply with the applicable laws and regulations of the political jurisdictions in which the operation is located.
ICMI has been established to administer the Cyanide Code, promote its adoption, evaluate its implementation, and manage the certification process. A detailed list of the operations covered by signatory companies’ applications, along with the full text of the Cyanide Code and its implementing and administrative documents, are available at www.cyanidecode.org. We invite you to read our 2025 Annual Report.
