"Magna is a downstream consumer of necessary conflict minerals and is several supply chain tiers removed from smelters and refiners which provide minerals and ores. Therefore, Magna does not perform, or direct the performance of, audits of SORs within the supply chain. As outlined in the OECD Guidance upon which our Program is based, we support the RMI’s cross-industry initiative that audits SORs to identify those facilities that have systems in place to assure sourcing of only conflict-free materials. The data on which we relied for certain statements in this Conflict Minerals Report (including in Appendix I) was obtained using the RCOI report we receive through our membership in the RMI (Unique RMI membership code: MAGN)."
