H.C. Starck announced its tantalum supply chain has been declared free of “conflict minerals” for a second consecutive year following an independent audit.

As quoted in the press release:

All of H.C. Starck’s tantalum processing plants in the United States, Germany, Japan, and in Thailand were audited in the beginning of 2012 and were found to meet all CFS site requirements. To be declared conflict-free, H.C. Starck’s tantalum processing plants have to maintain a documented conflict minerals policy, deploy a system for tracing finished goods back to its mine of origin and document that all of its purchased materials are from non-conflict sources.
