Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Fiscal Year 2010, Public Law 111-203, enacted on July 21, 2010, states that “the Secretary of State shall, in accordance with the recommendation of the United Nations Group of Experts on the Democratic Republic of the Congo in their December 2008 report—(i) produce a map of mineral-rich zones, trade routes, and areas under the control of armed groups in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and adjoining countries based on data from multiple sources, including—(I) the United Nations Group of Experts on the Democratic Republic of the Congo; (II) the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the governments of adjoining countries, and the governments of other Member States of the United Nations; and (III) local and international nongovernmental organizations.”
This map was compiled by the U.S. Department of State to submit to the Committees on Appropriations, Foreign Affairs, Ways and Means, and Financial Services of the House of Representatives, and the Committees on Appropriations, Foreign Relations, Finance, and Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate. The map focuses on exploitation of gold, cassiterite, wolframite, and columbite-tantalite (coltan) in the provinces of Nord-Kivu (North Kivu), Sud-Kivu (South Kivu), Ituri, Tanganyika, Haut-Lomani, and Haut-Katanga. The map is based on data from surveys conducted from February 2014 to November 2015 by a non-governmental organization, the International Peace Information Service (IPIS). IPIS and the DRC government launched a capacity building project in early 2013 focused on mine site monitoring, data collection, and mapping. The Department will continue to draw on data from this project for future iterations of this map, and has consulted the DRC government, the Group of Experts, and the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) regarding the current map.
Recent and ongoing surveys of mines and mining operations in eastern DRC have greatly improved our understanding of the mining sector. In some areas, however, a lack of data makes it difficult to confirm the location of mine sites, whether they are operational or not, and whether armed groups are either present at mines or have access to revenue streams emanating from them. These conditions can change frequently as local armed groups and militias appear and disappear, as companies move in and out and as FARDC units and other state security forces are redeployed. According to the Group of Experts and other sources, some elements of the state security forces continue to engage in illegal extortion or control of the mineral trade.
There are hundreds of mining sites in North and South Kivu alone, nearly all of which are artisanal mines (dug by hand with basic tools), and the majority of which are very small scale operations that operate intermittently. Many of the mining sites in eastern DRC are inaccessible to outsiders due to remoteness, a lack of passable roads, and the dangers stemming from the presence of militia, undisciplined army troops, and bandits. A comprehensive mapping study that applies a consistent methodology within a single timeframe to the entirety of DRC’s conflict-affected eastern provinces and adjacent countries has not been conducted.
Companies, trade associations, governments, and other stakeholders involved in the minerals trade should thus continue to obtain additional data through their own channels, as recommended in the guidance on due diligence adopted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and cited by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
In light of the constraints listed above, this map should not by itself be considered a source of sufficient information to serve as a substitute for the exercise of effective due diligence on mineral supply chains.
