Risk Readiness Assessment (RRA) Criteria

Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI)

The Copper Mark is a comprehensive assurance framework focused on demonstrating the copper industry’s responsible production practices. The Copper Mark Criteria for Responsible Production are management system requirements defined in the Risk Readiness Assessment and the Criteria Guide. The Criteria Guide provides additional guidance, including a description of the performance determination and means of verification for each criterion. All participants of the Copper Mark commit to fully meet all criteria within 24 months. The Risk Readiness Assessment (RRA) was created by the Responsible Minerals Initiative. It represents the core expectations from over 40 leading existing voluntary sustainability standards across all major environmental, social, and governance topics. Participation in the Copper Mark is open to multi-metal mines that produce other metals alongside copper.
