Conflict Minerals/Dodd-Frank Act
The Dodd- Frank Act seeks in part to stem the tide of violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) by limiting the sources of financing for certain armed groups operating in the DRC.
There has been increased awareness of human rights violations in the mining of certain minerals from a location described as the “Conflict Region” which is situated in the eastern portion of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and surrounding countries.
The common derivatives from these minerals are: Tantalum Tin Tungsten and Gold
