SamenvattingWhereas artisanal mining has always been a key economic activity in the region, the Nia-Nia area in the Ituri territory of the oriental province of the DRC has only recently become a site of importance to the international gold mining community. As industrial mining in the DRC is often accompanied by socio-economic and political friction, this report, which is based on in-depth on-site fieldwork, explores the mining activities carried out by international mining companies and situates them in the socio-political context of the region to assess conflict potentiality and key markers for development.
