The EPMF is a young structure, functioning under the umbrella of Eurométaux since 2007 but registered as a non-profit international association since 2009 (before 2007, it pre-existed as the precious metals group of Eurométaux since 1950's).
As such, the available resources are currently small and many topics are followed via an active membership in Eurométaux, which is better resourced to monitor and contribute to several items of interest for the precious and non-ferrous metals more largely.Person in charge of EU relations
