Jewelers Asked to Boycott Pebble Mine Gold

How do you stop a proposed Alaska mine? Take a chapter from the folks concerned about blood diamonds and ask jewelers to pledge to boycott the gold that could come from it.


As an industry leader, you have a real opportunity to demonstrate your company's commitment to the highest environmental and social standards.
Customers want to know that their gold jewelry was sourced responsibly – not from areas of critical ecological value.


You can demonstrate your company's commitment to these principles by
signing the Bristol Bay Protection Pledge. To sign the pledge, or learn more about it, please contact us at pledge@protectbristolbay.org.
