IPad Mini Model a1600

Need some thoughts. I was removing a badly damaged digitizer from an IPad mini a1600. During the removal, a shard from the glass cut a ribbon in the upper right side. I removed the damaged component but am unsure exactly what this part is. could someone advise me what exactly this is and where could I order a replacement. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or guidance
