Mining: Tiffany & Co seek to ensure jewelry comes from environmentally and socially responsible sources

Tiffany & Co. has teamed up with non-governmental organizations to compile a review of international mining practices. The report was commissioned after Tiffany, Earthworks and the World Wildlife Fund met in 2003 to discuss mining effects and the role that jewelry retailers, investors, insurers and NGOs could play in developing incentives for better mining practices.

The famous jewellery company aims to ensure its jewelry comes from environmentally and socially responsible sources.
