The Institute Cobalt Development Institute Objectives
There has been some form of the Cobalt Development Institute
in existence since 1957. Formed in 1982, the present Institute
is an international organisation of a wholly non profit making
character. It is an association of producers, users and traders
of cobalt with the objectives of:
- Promoting the responsible use of cobalt in all forms.
- Consulting organisations, agencies and governments for
research or investigations on all matters concerning cobalt.
- Providing
members with topical information on all cobalt matters
including health & safety and environmental
legislation plus regulatory affairs possibly affecting
their interests.
- Promoting co-operation between members
and providing a forum for the exchange of information
concerning the resources,
production and uses of cobalt.
Membership of the Institute may be Full (voting) or Associate
(non voting). Currently, we have 44 members from 18 countries
including all the major cobalt producers.
