Extractive Industries – International Accounting Standards Board
Date recorded:
At its meeting on September 22-23, 2020, the IASB met to discuss findings from research it undertook to help decide at a future meeting whether to replace or amend IFRS 6, Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources. The Board considered research findings on regulatory requirements for reserve and resource reporting in jurisdictions which have significant extractive activities. The Board was not asked to make any decisions. The Board will continue to discuss research findings on extractive activities; and it will hold educational sessions to develop its understanding further.
