Description
RMI announced that the upcoming EMRT 2.0 release would expand the EMRT reporting scope by adding four minerals—copper, natural graphite, lithium, and nickel—alongside existing EMRT minerals (cobalt and mica). This scope expansion is relevant for compliance teams because it increases supplier data-collection requirements and due-diligence coverage for energy-transition and battery-related minerals.
