Electronics Industry Supply Chain and Code of
Conduct Research on Tin, Tantalum, and Cobalt
RESOLVE has
been commissioned by the Electronics Industry
Citizenship Coalition (EICC) and Global
e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI) Extractives
Workgroup to map the supply chain for tin (solder),
tantalum (capacitors and deposition targets), and
cobalt (batteries and magnetic recording media) used
in electronics. In investigating the supply chain,
RESOLVE will also request and review purchaser and
supplier codes of conduct. The process that we
designed to emphasizes stakeholder engagement,
particularly so that we can identify solutions to
gaps and challenges in these supply chains. For more information on
why EICC/GeSI is undertaking this research, please
