ITA-RMI Assessment Criteria for Tin Smelters
Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), International Tin Association (ITA)
The International Tin Association (ITA) and the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) encourage the responsible sourcing of minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas (CAHRAs), and, where relevant, artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) producers. To incentivise and improve supply chain due diligence in the tin value chain, ITA and RMI collaborated to issue these joint Assessment Criteria for tin smelting companies. This document sets forth the criteria for determining conformance with RMI and ITA program requirements, the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Mineral Supply Chains from CAHRAs, as well as regulatory requirements on minerals due diligence.
