Efficiently Validate Collected Smelter Information
The SEC Rule Dodd-Frank 1502 requires issuer’s Conflict Minerals Report to include a description of the facilities used to process conflict minerals and the country of origin stating that the facilities refer to the smelter or refiners in an issuer’s supply chain. But how do you efficiently validate all that collected smelter information?

Identifying the source of your supplied metals is the one of the main purposes for Conflict Minerals Reporting and Compliance. A Smelter is usually the first stop for raw materials once they have been mined or recycled by the provider. We can help you identify your Smelters, by metal and/or product, verify their status and certifications, and provide the documentation necessary to answer requests and comply with regulations. Verify your Smelters once, post your certified results, and reuse this certification to respond to any future requests.
