Self-assessment—using IRMA’s Mine Measure tool to evaluate the mine against the IRMA Standard for Responsible Mining—is the first step in IRMA’s independent assessment process.
Mines engage in self-assessment as a first step on the IRMA journey. The following table shows the mines who are conducting self-assessments using IRMA’s Mine Measure tool, and who have agreed to share publicly that they are doing so.
