Transparency in Metals & Mining

In the 21st century, society is increasingly aware of the environmental and social performance of supply chains and consumers.

Twenty-two metals and mining companies and 32 national and regional mining associations and global commodity associations are members of the International Council on Metals and Mining (ICMM), which works to address core sustainable development challenges. The ICMM says on its website that it requires member companies to "make a public commitment to improve their sustainability performance and report against their progress on an annual basis."

These sustainability reports should be in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G4 Guidelines. The ICMM publishes an annual review to strengthen social and environmental performance in the mining and metals industry.

Product designers and decision makers in chargeThe amount of electricity present upon the capacitor's plates. Also, the act of forcing of electrons onto the capacitor's plates. See CoulombA coulomb is the unit of electric charge. It is named after Charles-Augustin de Coulomb.1 coulomb is the amount of electric charge transported by a current of 1 ampere in 1 second. It can also be defined in terms of capacitance and voltage, where one coulomb is defined as one farad of capacitance times one volt of electric potential difference.. of purchasing metals used in product manufacturing should refer to the ICMM member list as they search for more sustainable materials in order to contribute to a more transparent and sustainable supply chain.
