ARM - Alliance for Responsible Mining

Founded in 2004, the Association for Responsible Mining (ARM) is an independent international association that seeks to improve equity and well-being in communities and small-scale artisanal mining (ASM) operations by improving social, environmental and good governance practices, and by creating true ecosystems within communities. ARM is committed to social justice and environmental responsibility, genuine values that are passed on to the ASM operations.

ARM worked with Fairtrade Labelling Organizations International (FLO) on the 2010 launch of the first independent fair trade gold label: Fairtrade & Fairmined.

Patrick Schein, CEO of S&P Trading, was made a member of ARM's Board of Directors in 2006, prior to joining the association's Executive Board in 2008.
