Alrosa Allocates $190-255 Million Annually to ESG Initiatives

May 22, 2026

1186772204 AlrosaRussian diamond miner Alrosa invests 5-8% of its annual revenue, or around RUB15 billion to RUB20 billion ($190 million to $255 million), into environmental, social and governance (ESG) initiatives, according to Tatyana Goncharenko, Deputy Head of the company’s Department of International Cooperation.

Alrosa’s ESG efforts are centred on the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), its primary operating region, where the company says it balances industrial activity with environmental stewardship in a fragile Arctic ecosystem. Over the past decade, Alrosa contributed more than RUB600 billion ($7.65 billion) in tax and non-tax revenues to the region’s consolidated budget. In 2025 alone, more than 5,000 Yakutia residents secured employment at the company through its “Working Yakutia. Personnel” programme.

“In the context of geopolitical instability and a difficult market environment, maintaining our sustainable development trajectory remains essential,” Goncharenko said. “Investments in regional support, environmental projects and people will strengthen our position for the next phase of market development.”

Alrosa noted that in 2025 it became the first mining company to verify the carbon neutrality of its production through its own CO₂ absorption processes. The company also reported a negative carbon footprint for its diamonds at minus 0.71 kg CO₂-equivalent per carat, achieved through direct operational carbon utilisation exceeding 1 million tonnes of CO₂-equivalent annually.
