The rating aims to enhance transparency in corporate environmental protection activities and promote green competition within the region.

This rating covers 150 mining enterprises operating within the republic that submit reports to the ministry. Sergei Cherosov (Сергей Черосов), Chairman of the Public Council under the Republic's Ministry of Ecology, stated that multiple factors were considered during the compilation process, including whether enterprises have an environmental protection department or designated personnel, departmental-level production waste management plans, wastewater treatment facilities, water intake and discharge metering devices, approved medium-term comprehensive environmental protection plans, whether environmental statements are published on their websites, whether employees voluntarily participate in cleaning up illegal landfills in forested areas, and whether forest restoration, biotechnical measures, or biological resource monitoring are carried out.

The rating divides participants into three groups: from leaders to laggards. Laggards had environmental violations in 2025. The leading group includes 20 mining enterprises, while the laggard category comprises 65 enterprises, including "Ryabinovoye" LLC (ООО «Рябиновое»), "Druzhba Plus" LLC (ООО «Дружба Плюс»), "Zenit" LLC (ООО «Зенит»), "Faust" LLC (ООО «Фауст»), and "Titan Auto Trade" LLC (ООО «Титан Автотрейд»).
