Our Mining, Metals, amp; Responsible Sourcing Series. Tuesday, December 18, 2018. I remember, as a youngster, watching my parents check the label on the bottom of an item to see its country of origin. It is important to know where this product is coming from, they would say, It might not be good quality.
Mining and Refining Responsible Sourcing Almost 80% of the mines surveyed in 2008 by the International Aluminium Institute are ISO 14001 certified.
LBMA has developed toolkits to enable refiners to deal efficiently with LargeScale Mines. It works closely with organisations such as the World Gold Council (WGC), the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM), and the Initiative for Responsible Mining Assurance (IRMA) to ensure that the various industry initiatives are aligned.
The first was seen in October 2019, when the London Metal Exchange released its new responsible sourcing rules also emphasising increased transparency in supply chains, and pushing for equal treatment of largescale and artisanal mining, among other things.
LBMAs Responsible Sourcing Programme explicitly requires refiners to engage with producers defining mining in areas considered as high risk of conflict or human rights abuse. Furthermore, refining and product manufacturing, and investment gold and goldbearing products.

#0183;#32;Two approaches to managing responsible sourcing of minerals were identified: supply chain due diligence and sourcing via sustainability schemes. This study maps the sustainability requirements of such schemes and uses these to categorize them as socially responsible sourcing, sustainable sourcing or green sourcing.
Responsible sourcing. Responsible sourcing is very important to us, as a large part of our social impact takes place in our supply chain. We need to choose our suppliers with discernment, as they can either work together with us to improve our mutual sustainability performance, or otherwise they can pose a risk that will prevent us from achieving our goals.
Responsible sourcing programmes (RSPs) can extend beyond the mine to include suppliers to ICMM members. Responsibility is shared with fabricators, original equipment manufacturers, retailers, consumers and the recycling industry RSPs and SP are part of a broader trend towards extended producer responsibility.
The main drivers for responsible mining of most critical metals are not responsible sourcing initiatives from consumers but the need for mining companies to (1) satisfy investment banks in order to raise capital, (2) gain informal approval (social licence to operate) from their host communities, and (3) comply with the laws of the countries in which they operate.
