The expectation from society for responsible mining practices is increasing, as is the mining sectors transition into the circular economy, digitisation, artificial intelligence, and industry 4.0. This study aimed to explore the need for sustainability indicators for innovation and technology to achieve sustainability performance. The main research question explores how sustainability indicators for innovation and technology are developed and used in the mining sector to achieve sustainability performance. In this study, a qualitative approach to conducting interviews was undertaken with professionals in the mining sector and experts in the sustainability field. The data was collected from open-ended research questions to the selected participants within the mining sector, including platinum, diamond, coal, gold, nickel, copper, and iron ore. The key insights are concluded in a final framework of Sustainability Indicators for Innovation and Technology that shows the integration of what success looks like for sustainability indicators for innovation and technology, the critical factors to achieve this success, and the challenges and opportunities experienced.en© 2020 University of Pretoria.
