13. What is Coltan used for?
Coltan is the name of a metallic ore called “columbite-tantalite”. Two key minerals can be extracted from Coltan. These minerals are niobium and tantalum. Tantalum is used in the production of many types of consumer electronics ranging from cell phones, dvd players, computers and even the Sony Playstation.

14. What we can do?
There is very little the "man on the street" can do to prevent Coltan exploitation as it is not a "visible" component of cellphones that can be differentiated when shopping.
But continuing pressure on circuit board manufacturers has lead to many demands that their Coltan supplies only come from legitimate sources.
