ASM Toolkit
About this tool
The LBMA Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) Toolkit v6 provides refiners and suppliers with practical due diligence guidance to responsibly source ASM gold and integrate it into formal supply chains. Structured around OECD principles, it categorizes actions into minimum requirement, progressive improvement, and best practice across areas such as legal compliance, site assessments, worker rights, environmental and social governance, supply chain transparency, transport logistics, and fiscal obligations. The toolkit is designed to strengthen traceability, reduce risks of child labor and environmental harm, and promote continuous improvement, enabling ASM actors to participate more credibly and sustainably in global gold markets.
