遵守负责任矿产供应链管理的政策声明书
Policy Statement on Adhering to Responsible Mineral Supply Chain Management
我公司是欧陆注册钨业控股集团有限公司的下属公司,公司致力于打造活跃于国内外各类有色金属市场,以促进全球资源流动为己任的国际一流贸易团队, 秉承“回归经营本质、坚守价值创造、奉行稳健经营、追求人正品真”的核心价值观经营贸易业务。公司已通过ISO9001质量管理体系认证,并建立了完善的风险管理体系,愿意和上游原料供应商和下游客户一起,共同建设负责任的矿产供应链。
Our company is a subsidiary of Jiangxi Tungsten Holding Group Company Limited and is committed to building an international first-class trade team active in various non-ferrous metal markets both domestically and internationally, with the responsibility of promoting global resource flow. We do business with the core values of "returning to the essence of business, adhering to value creation, adhering to stable management, and pursuing upright and genuine spirits”. Our company has obtained ISO9001 quality management system certification and established a comprehensive risk management system. We are willing to work with upstream raw material suppliers and downstream customers to jointly build responsible mineral supply chains.
本公司对锡(Tin)、钽(Tantalum)、钨(Tungsten)、金(Gold)四类矿产落实负责任矿产供应链管理,并根据业务需要,扩展至其他对于负责任矿产供应链有要求的产品品种。
Our company implements responsible mineral supply chain management for four types of minerals: tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold, and expands it to other product varieties with requirements for responsible mineral supply chain according to business needs.
我公司遵循中国五矿化工进出口商会发布的《中国矿产供应链尽责管理指南》(第二版)和OECD(经合组织)发布的《经合组织对受冲突影响和高风险地区矿产负责任的供应链的尽职调查指南》(第三版)的要求,对于来自“受冲突影响和高风险区域”的矿产搜集和/或提供高风险供应链要求的单据,对于来自其他区域的矿产搜集和/或提供低风险供应链要求的单据。“受冲突影响和高风险区域”的定义遵从加工该矿产的下游冶炼厂的定义,如果该定义无法获得,则遵从最低限度的“受冲突影响和高风险区域”的定义(该定义包含多德-弗兰克法案中列明的冲突地区-刚果民主共和国及其九个相邻国家,即安哥拉、布隆迪、中非共和国、刚果共和国、卢旺达、南苏丹、坦桑尼亚、乌干达和赞比亚,以及欧盟受冲突影响和高风险地区清单中的地区,详见https://www.cahraslist.net/cahras)。
Our company complies with the requirements of the Chinese Due Diligence Guidelines for Mineral Supply Chain (Second Edition) issued by the China Chamber of Commerce of Metals, Minerals & Chemicals Importers & Exporters and the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (Third Edition) issued by the OECD. We collect and/or provide documents for minerals from “conflict-affected and high-risk areas” according to high-risk supply chain documentation requirements , or collect and/or provide documents for minerals from other areas according to low-risk supply chain documentation requirements. The definition of “conflict-affected and high-risk areas” follows the definition of downstream smelters processing the mineral. If this definition is unavailable, the minimum definition of “conflict-affected and high-risk areas” is followed (this definition includes the conflict areas listed in the Dodd Frank Act - the Democratic Republic of the Congo and its nine neighboring countries, namely Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia, as well as the areas in the EU list of conflict affected and high-risk areas at https://www.cahraslist.net/cahras).
欧陆注册认识到在受冲突影响和高风险区域从事矿产开采、贸易、处理和出口可能存在形成重大负面影响的风险,并且认识到欧陆注册有尊重人权、不助长冲突的责任,欧陆注册承诺采纳并广泛推广如下受冲突影响和高风险区域矿石负责任采购政策,并将其纳入与供应商签订的合同和/或协议之中。这一政策为从开采到终端用户整个过程中的对冲突敏感的采购活动以及供应商的风险意识提供了基本参考。欧陆注册承诺不从事任何会为冲突提供资助的活动,承诺遵守联合国相关制裁决议,或者在适用情况下,遵守执行此类决议的国内法律。
We recognize that risks of significant adverse impacts which may be associated with extracting, trading, handling and exporting minerals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas, and recognize that we have the responsibility to respect human rights and not contribute to conflict, we commit to adopt, widely disseminate and incorporate in contracts and/or agreements with suppliers the following policy on responsible sourcing of minerals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas, as representing a common reference for conflict-sensitive sourcing practices and suppliers’ risk awareness from the point of extraction until end user. We commit to refraining from any action which contributes to the financing of conflict and we commit to comply with relevant United Nations sanctions resolutions or, where applicable, domestic laws implementing such resolutions.
