Publications and Due Diligence Guidance
The Responsible Minerals Initiative offers resources for companies about best practice, guidance, and standards on conducting due diligence on mineral sourcing from conflict-affected and high-risk areas, regulatory compliance, and public reporting. Many of these documents are authored by our members with contributions from stakeholders.
The RMI is also pleased to offer publications highlighting the organization's previous successes involving its programs and participants.
For all guidance documents, please note that any clarification by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or OECD would supercede the guidance provided here.
