Conflict Minerals Compliance Is a Core Business Need

Incomplete CMRT submissions and unvalidated smelters undermine compliance and leave you exposed during customer audits and while shipping goods across borders. Plus knowing where you source tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold (3TGs) is vital for complying with the Dodd-Frank Act Section 1502 and the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation. Assent closes the gaps in your program.

North American packaging EPR laws — including California SB54, Oregon SB582, Colorado HB22-1355, and Canada’s Federal Plastics Registry — require companies to register with a Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO), report detailed packaging data, and pay eco-modulated fees. That’s a major challenge for manufacturers with limited visibility into their global packaging supply chains.

FAQ: Conflict Minerals Compliance

Get answers to your common conflict mineral reporting questions from Assent’s experts.

What are conflict minerals?

Conflict minerals are tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold (3TGs) sourced from conflict-affected or high-risk areas, particularly the Democratic Republic of the Congo and surrounding countries. These minerals are regulated under the Dodd-Frank Act Section 1502 because their extraction may finance armed conflict, forced labor, and human rights abuses.

Is cobalt a conflict mineral?

No. Cobalt is not classified as a conflict mineral under Dodd-Frank Section 1502, which applies only to 3TGs. However, cobalt is commonly included in responsible minerals programs due to human rights risks associated with cobalt mining, particularly in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Assent provides a cobalt reporting solution to assist with compliance.

What is the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT)?

The Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) is a standardized supplier questionnaire developed by the Responsible Minerals Initiative. It is used to collect data on 3TG usage, smelters, refiners, and country of origin information to support conflict minerals due diligence and reporting.

What are conflict minerals reporting requirements?

Conflict minerals reporting requirements typically include supply chain due diligence, smelter identification, risk assessment, and disclosure. Public U.S. companies must comply with Dodd-Frank Act Section 1502, while certain EU importers must meet obligations under the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation.

What is conflict mineral sourcing?

Conflict mineral sourcing is the practice of identifying where 3TG minerals originate and assessing sourcing risk. It involves conducting a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI), collecting smelter data, and evaluating whether minerals come from conflict-affected or high-risk areas.
