Use of Conflict-Free Minerals

The Group has drawn up the Sansha Electric Manufacturing Group Conflict Minerals Response Policy. From a humanitarian point of view, we will not use any conflict minerals, such as tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold, that are produced using inhumane practices in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the surrounding region.

Sansha Electric Manufacturing Group Conflict Minerals Response Policy

The Group prohibits the use of conflict minerals (tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold) mined from conflicts in and around the Democratic Republic of Congo and its neighbouring areas, and from inhumane acts such as trafficking, slavery, forced labour, child labour, abuse and war crimes.

  • The supply chain is properly managed in accordance with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Conflict Minerals Due Diligence Guidance.
  • The Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) published by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) is used to conduct supply chain research.
  • In the future, if a conflict minerals smelter 'audit programme' (RMAP) or other programme development establishes a procurement method that completely eliminates conflict minerals, procurement transactions will be conducted accordingly.
  • Not all minerals from the Democratic Republic of Congo and neighbouring areas will be used, but those that have been traded legitimately and are not involved in conflicts in the region.
