Understanding that companies can potentially contribute to social and environmental impacts through their supply chain and business relationships, Wesdome is committed to responsible supply chain management.

Our operations, exploration activities, and the majority of our supply chain spending are in Canada, which has strong legal frameworks and enforcement mechanisms, including those related to forced labour and human rights.1 Whenever possible, we aim to procure goods and services locally and from Indigenous-owned enterprises, as we are able and include these and other ESG-related considerations in all major contract evaluations. Further details on our local and Indigenous procurement initiatives are available under Indigenous and Local Procurement.

The CFO provides overall oversight of supply chain management, and depending on contract value, approval over contracts is required from the CFO, CEO and/or Board of Directors, pursuant to Wesdome Delegation of Authority. Site-based supply chain teams, which are part of our finance departments, manage the function, including the management of our on-site warehouses. They are supported by our corporate Director, Supply Chain and Procurement. Corporate and site teams hold recurring touch point meetings, and pertinent concerns are communicated to the CFO. Our supply chain teams also work closely with our sustainability and community relations teams to support our local and Indigenous procurement objectives.

We have a Supplier Code of Conduct in place that applies to all suppliers, and communicates our standards and expectations, including requirements related to human rights, prohibitions on forced and child labour, and requirements regarding health and safety, and working conditions.

In 2025, we focused on enhancing our internal supply chain expertise by hiring an experienced Director, Supply Chain and Procurement. This Director will be focused on enhancing and optimizing Wesdome’s supply chain management so that we can better leverage systems, data, and strategies to improve operational reliability, control costs, and support long-term growth. Given this change, the development of a Supply Chain Policy, which was planned for 2025, was completed in early 2026.
