Going the extra mile
Existing initiatives upstream
Are you interested in getting involved in ongoing initiatives and driving positive and sustainable impact at the mining stage? This section provides links to existing initiatives that can help you deliver positive impacts upstream.
- The Responsible Minerals Initiative has created a compelling infographic which illustrates existing initiatives you can engage with. See the infographic.
Disclaimer: The inclusion of a service provider or industry initiative is neither an endorsement nor a recommendation. The onus is on SMEs to thoroughly research which service provider or industry initiative is the right option for them, and that may ultimately be an entity not listed below.
While the authors have taken all reasonable steps to include as many existing service providers (within the EU) as possible, there will be unintentional omissions. If you would like to recommend the inclusion of a service provider in a future iteration of this Toolbox, please %20contactdue-diligence-ready [dot] eu (contact us).
