The Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI)
The Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) is the largest global industry association in the mineral space, counting more than 600 member companies from any stage of the value chain. It works globally to help enable business and stakeholders in mineral supply chains to work collaboratively on the definition and adoption of policies, practices, data and tools with the goal of fostering responsible mineral sourcing and production, to achieve sustainable and resilient minerals supply chains.

The European Partnership for Responsible Minerals (EPRM)
The European Partnership for Responsible Minerals (EPRM) is a unique multi-stakeholder initiative fostering reliable and responsible mineral supply chains through inclusive and knowledge-driven engagement with artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) in high-risk areas. The EPRM brings together governments, supply chain actors, and civil society organisations through dialogue and shared learning, enables the development of innovative partnerships and projects that strengthen responsible ASM and due diligence practices, and contributes to building reliable mineral supply chains.
