Responsible Sourcing

Conforming to the LPPM Responsible Sourcing Guidance is a requirement for all refiners wishing to achieve and maintain their LPPM Good Delivery Accreditation and their LPPM Sponge Accreditation. This is intended to assure investors and consumers, that we aim for all Good Delivery and Sponge Accredited metal to be conflict- and theft-free due to compliance with a tailor-made, assured process.

Prior to any new application for LPPM Good Delivery or Sponge Accreditation, applicants must submit a responsible sourcing audit, performed by an LPPM approved assurance provider, conforming to the LPPM’s responsible sourcing guidance.
