Methods used by Nornickel to assess the state of ecosystems

Method for integral assessment of ecosystem health

To quantify the current state of biodiversity in various impact areas around the Company's facilities, Nornickel calculates the biodiversity indicator (as a percentage) for a specific impact area divided by the same indicator determined for the background area.

Pi — average values of indicators determined for a specific site/station;

P(back) — values of the same indicators determined for the background area;

n — number of indicators.

For each region, there is a set of key parameters for key groups, including species richness, plant occurrence, dominance index, and so on. By calculating the average percentages obtained for various indicators in a specified area, we can estimate the area’s total biodiversity, expressed as the Integral Indicator of Ecosystem Health (IIEH).

For assessment of biodiversity in the impact areas of the Group’s divisions, Nornickel uses a division‑level IIEH. IIEH is calculated based on biodiversity indicators for all impact areas taking into account their size separately for each division.

Assets / groups of assets	Terrestrial ecosystems	Water ecosystems
Norilsk and Energy divisions (Norilsk Industrial District)	0.87	0.84
Kola Division	0.92	0.92
Trans‑Baikal Division	0.96	1.07

At the first stage, when the approach was tested on data collected for a two‑year period, it proved to be relatively effective. The method requires further improvements to confirm its effectiveness for a three‑year period data and to include additional indicator groups in IIEH calculations, such as abundance and dominance structure.

Use of phytochemical indices as indicators of depression in plantsReduced plant resilience and productivity.

Exploring changes in secondary metabolitesProducts of metabolism in cells, tissues and organs of living organisms. as more precise indicators of environmental pollution is one of the promising areas for annual monitoring of the state of standalone plants and the ecosystem in general.

In 2023, a phytochemical analsys of the composition of leaves of the mountain birch (Betula czerepanovii) was carried out at Kola Division. A set of indicators such as phenolic compounds, pigments and antioxidant activity (which was actually used in this case) can serve as a bioindicator of the intensity of man‑induced contamination.

Use of genetic methods of analysis (DNA metabarcoding)

Data collected during a two‑year period prove the high effectiveness of DNA metabarcoding, which was used for determining the species richness and specificity of structure in communities of soil microarthropodsSmall arthropods that usually live in the soil..

For aquatic ecosystems, fish biodiversity was investigated by identifying gene remnants of species in the environment from extracellular DNA present in water. The analysis showed that Vetrennoye Lake contains valuable fish species (whitefish and smelt)For more details, please see Company's website.. This is an effective alternative to the classic method of fish catching.

DNA analysis helps not only discover new species and increase the precision of research results but also gather new data on genetic diversity for scientific databases and share the results of observations with the global academic community by publications in international journals that rely on research materials. Incorporation of genetic methods into the system of corporate indicators helps promote the use of genetic data on the environment.
