Under the “Conflict Minerals Policy”, the Group continues its full efforts to ensure zero use of any conflict minerals or minerals from OECD conflict and high-risk areas across the supply chain including in our business partners, thereby promoting responsible procurement.

We request our suppliers to refrain from sourcing conflict minerals from these regions in accordance with our “CSR Procurement Guidelines”. We also use the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) and Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) issued by the RMI to verify the presence of conflict minerals and confirm specific details such as smelters, and respond appropriately on this matter when asked by our customers.
