Fairmined Gold: Certified Origin | Ethical Sourcing

The Iquira Agro-Mineral Cooperative in Columbia produces both coffee and minerals, particularly gold and silver.

Mercury-free: No mercury is used at Iquira. “We don’t want our families, our neighbors and their children to be harmed by contamination,” says the Iquira general manager. “We seek 100% decontamination.”

Environmental protection: As part of the incentive and reward for achieving Fairmined certification, the Iquira Cooperative obtains access to legal world markets and receives a small premium over the internationally set spot price of gold. This premium helps to pay for safety upgrades, worker training and safety, fair wages, environmental remediation.

Community investment:  The community decides on social investments such as schools and medical clinics. A portion of the Fairmined premium is devoted to these social improvements each year.

Transparency: Annual reports detail the Cooperative’s uses of the Fairmined premium.

World Recognition: Gold from Iquira has been used to create the Nobel Peace Prize and the Palm of Cannes award.
