概要
Conflict minerals reporting requires tracing the 3TG metals, tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold, back through every tier of your supply chain to the smelters that process them. Both the US and the EU impose separate disclosure laws on these minerals, and the Responsible Minerals Initiative is the industry reporting standard. Z2 Compliance Manager collects and assesses 3TG data across your parts, surfaces clear statuses with alerts, and generates the CMRT, EMRT, and AMRT so your team can file without rebuilding the data by hand.
Conflict minerals are the 3TG metals extracted in and around the Democratic Republic of Congo, and meaningful disclosure depends on identifying the smelters and refiners that process them. Z2 collects declarations across your BOM and maps the smelters in your supply chain, so you see which facilities sit behind each component rather than stopping at the direct supplier. Tracing to the smelter lets you align reporting with RMI conformant smelter lists and answer customer due-diligence requests with evidence, and because this lives in Compliance Manager, the same parts data you assess against REACH and RoHS drives your conflict minerals view, with no separate upload to maintain.
Reporting no longer stops at the original four metals. Z2 generates the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template for 3TG, the Extended Minerals Reporting Template for cobalt and mica, and the Additional Minerals Reporting Template, so a single workflow covers what your customers and regulators ask for. Each template is populated from the declarations and smelter data already in Compliance Manager, removing the manual transcription that makes these filings slow and error prone. With current data, you answer customer surveys on schedule and avoid the disruption when a missing declaration stalls an order or a regulation halts sales.
Conflict minerals data is only as complete as the declarations your suppliers return. When a supplier has not provided a current CMRT or EMRT, Z2 runs supplier outreach to collect the missing templates, the same mechanism used for declarations and certificates under other regulations, closing gaps without your team chasing each supplier. Subscriptions also include access to Z2's in-house materials and compliance experts, who help you stay current as conflict minerals and responsible sourcing obligations expand in the US and the EU.
Conflict minerals reporting works best when it is not standalone. Inside Compliance Manager, status sits next to REACH, RoHS, TSCA, and your other assessments, so a compliance officer sees one complete picture per part. Alerts notify you when a declaration falls out of compliance, and the progress dashboard shows where 3TG coverage stands across your portfolio. Because Compliance Manager connects to Z2's broader platform, the supplier and multi-tier data behind your parts is the same data informing your conflict minerals trace, so sourcing and compliance work from one source of truth.

よくあるご質問
3TG refers to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold, the four metals defined as conflict minerals for their links to extraction in and around the Democratic Republic of Congo. The Responsible Minerals Initiative is the reporting standard, and both the US and the EU have separate disclosure laws. Z2 collects and assesses 3TG data across your parts so you can report against these requirements.
Z2 generates the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) for 3TG, the Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT) for cobalt and mica, and the Additional Minerals Reporting Template (AMRT), each populated from the declaration and smelter data already in the platform so you can file without rebuilding it manually.
When a supplier has not returned a current template, Z2 runs supplier outreach to collect the missing CMRT or EMRT, the same mechanism used to gather declarations and certificates for other regulations, so you close gaps without contacting each supplier individually.
