Fairmined Gold Jewelry
Fairmined is a leading standard for responsible mining and an assurance label created by the Alliance for Responsible Mining.
Artisanal and small scale mining is an important economic tool that supports the livelihoods of tens of millions of people and Fairmined benefits miners directly by guaranteeing fair wages and an additional premium which the miners choose how to invest - this could be improving their practices by reducing and eliminating mercury use, upgrading facilities to better working conditions, or investing in the education of children in their community, for example.
When you purchase a Truss and Ore piece that is handcrafted in Fairmined gold, you too contribute to empowering and supporting miners.
