The board reviews the financials, the capital plan, the safety numbers. Then, forty-five minutes before close, a video of protestors blocking the access road to the flagship mine hits two million views. The directors who approved the expansion six months ago are hearing the community's grievances for the first time.
That gap, between what the boardroom receives and what the ground actually contains, is the problem this handbook exists to close. Social Risk for Boards gives directors and senior executives a way to govern social performance with the same rigor they already apply to safety and capital, without descending into operational detail that belongs to practitioners.
Written by a mediator who has sat on both sides of the table, including years reviewing the polished reports that reach headquarters and the very different reality waiting in the field, this is a strategic guide, not a how-to manual. It is built for the time-constrained executive: a clear, evidence-based read that delivers line of sight without operational noise.
Across eleven chapters and four appendices, it equips the board to see what it is currently missing:
- Understand the new accountability: why the social license to operate became a mission-critical legal and financial dependency, and where personal director liability now begins.
- Learn from collapse: a forensic reading of the Juukan Gorge destruction and the five governance failures that allowed a decades-old relationship to be erased in minutes.
- Map the hard law: the EU CSDDD, the UK Companies Act Section 172, and the Delaware duty of oversight, translated into the liability context directors must actually manage.
- Quantify the intangible: how to price social conflict into valuation and prove to a CFO that community friction is measurable and material.
- Read the right signals: leading versus lagging indicators, a social performance dashboard, and the red flags that reveal latent risk without practitioner expertise.
- Ask better questions: a curated set of strategic inquiries for management, with guidance on how to interpret the answers.
- Govern in practice: board agenda templates, committee structures, an annual governance calendar, and a phased implementation roadmap.
- See over the horizon: the geopolitics of transition minerals, where surging demand meets Indigenous rights and fragile supply chains.
The appendices add a plain-language glossary, legal framework summaries, a resource directory, and sample board reporting templates ready to use.
Who this book is for: board directors, C-suite executives, and the governance, risk, and ESG leads who brief them in mining, energy, and any business exposed to industrial and extractive projects.
This is the executive-tier volume of the Social Accord Architecture reference library, the discipline Thomas Gaultier developed to treat company-community engagement as engineered infrastructure: as rigorously designed and durably maintained as the road, the pit, or the processing plant.
About the author: Thomas Gaultier is a mediator and lawyer who has mediated thousands of community claims across Sub-Saharan Africa and Europe, served as a community and social performance officer on a lithium project in Portugal, and trained some of the world's largest mining groups in conflict prevention and resolution. He is admitted to the New York Bar, has an MBA in Mining and Raw Materials, teaches negotiation and mediation at the Universidade Catolica Portuguesa, and is the author of Mediating Extractive Conflicts, The Human Shock Absorber, and When the Mine Arrives.
The greatest risk is not the absence of minerals. It is the absence of trust. No community should be invisible to the board that governs the company operating on its land.

Derecho al desistimiento
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
