Abstract: This article presents a framework of 36 economic, environmental, social and integrated indicators for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) evaluation of mine sites and projects, and their contribution to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The indicators are based on points defined by various initiatives, to be consistent with the main reporting systems and to facilitate the collection of the information to be used. The novelty of this proposal is that it addresses simultaneously the measurement of CSR and SDG indexes from a quantitative point of view and tailored to any case study. The methodology is applied to a case study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
