For 10 years now,

has implemented a mineral traceability program to support responsible sourcing of technology minerals that we produce. Also invested in extensive geological exploration, generating investment projects promoted
@MiningForumECA
.
The narrative of conflict minerals has made it difficult to raise finance for mining in
#Rwanda
and has led to an influx of artisanal.miners and traders. Over the past 10 years Rwanda has complied with DoddFrank to take away doubts says Gatare
