Conflict Minerals Policy Statement
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules regarding the inclusion of “Conflict Minerals” in products or production of materials. The ruling applies to publicly traded companies for which conflict minerals are “necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured or contracted to be manufactured, by a company that files reports with the SEC under Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘Exchange Act’), such company will be required to file a report on Form SD disclosing whether its conflict minerals originated in a Conflict Country, based on its reasonable country of origin inquiry.
“Conflict Minerals”: The final rules define “conflict mineral” to include cassiterite, columbite-tantalite (coltan), gold, wolframite and their derivatives, which are limited to the so-called 3Ts (tantalum, tin and tungsten), unless the Secretary of State determines that additional derivatives are financing conflict in the Conflict Countries, in which case they will also be considered “conflict minerals”.
