KIONIX CONFLICT MINERALS POLICY
“Conflict Minerals” refers to minerals mined in conditions of armed conflict and human rights abuses, notably in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, by the Congolese National Army and various armed rebel groups, including the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda. The profits from the sale of these minerals finance continued fighting in the Second Congo War and control of lucrative mines becomes a focus of the fighting as well.
Kionix expects our suppliers to source materials only from environmentally and socially responsible suppliers. Our suppliers must pass this requirement up the supply chain and determine the source of specified minerals.
