"Procedure for identification of conflict-affected and high-risk areas (CAHRA): As part of the requirements of the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) and in-line with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, GTP has implemented a procedure for identification of CAHRA and risk mitigation for contributing to violent conflicts and serious human abuse. The GTP CAHRA identification procedure consist of two steps: 1) Identification of country of origin and transit countries, 2) CAHRA identification using resources. GTP is currently using 5 internationally recognized resources for identifying countries with suspected CAHRA: • Heidelberg Institute for International Conflict Research • RULAC: Rule of Law in Armed Conflicts • Control Risk Maps • CATO Institute; Human Freedom Index • FATF-GAFI Organization The included procedure is used for review of new supplies prior to the material entering the GTP supply chain (suppliers as well as new mines from which existing suppliers are sourcing) as well as annual review of current suppliers. The annual review is conducted at the end of each financial year (i.e. end of February)."
