European Commission recognises RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) as an equivalent due diligence scheme (Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2071)

The European Commission announced recognition of the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) as the first supply chain due diligence scheme recognised under Regulation (EU) 2017/821 (EU Conflict Minerals Regulation), via Implementing Decision (EU) 2025/2071. This is directly relevant to CMRT users because RMAP is administered by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), which also maintains the CMRT. The recognition increases the compliance value of CMRT/RMI-aligned due diligence outputs for EU importers of 3TG (tin, tantalum, tungsten, gold) by allowing reliance on a recognised scheme to help demonstrate conformity with EU due diligence obligations.
