The EICC and GeSI industry associations have released their version 3.0 Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT).  The new template is intended to align with the new IPC-1755 conflict minerals declaration standard, but is not backward compatible with the previous version 2.03a CMRT which was used by many manufacturers for collecting their 2013 conflict minerals data.   The CMRT template is available through the EICC/GeSI conflict-free sourcing initiative .
