US companies drag on complying with a law against financing armed movements
active in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo through the purchase of
"conflict minerals," according to a new study.
"Our analysis shows that most companies seem to prefer
business-as-usual to genuinely addressing the risk that their mineral purchases
bankroll armed groups overseas," Amnesty International said in a study
released this week jointly with Global Witness, which combats the looting of
natural resources from poor nations.
