        database. To the extent that an eligible or provisionally eligible smelter or refiner identified by a supplier was not certified as conformant by the RMI, TTC consulted publicly available information to attempt to determine whether that smelter or
        refiner obtained 3TG from sources that directly or indirectly financed or benefitted armed groups (as defined in the Conflict Minerals Rule) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country.</div>
