About the project
The
Realizing Potential for ASGM Trade (FVO) is a 4-years project being
implemented by 1 international organization – Solidaridad and 2
international companies Aunexum and Impact Facility in Geita, Tanzania.
The project is primarily focused on creating access to geological data
for ASM gold mines, through ‘translating’ mining cadastre information
and the availability of (basic) technology for soil analysis. Geological
data is crucial for ASM gold mines for example to aid dig shafts and
tunnels in the right places and right directions, to make a reliable
estimate of the lifespan of the mine and the quality and quantity of the
gold deposits. This is important to work more efficiently, to prevent
environmental damage and have access to formal finance.
Project’s objectives:

this project we aim to develop an approach and tools that ASM can use
to ‘read’ the mining cadastre data and perform basic soil analysis of
their mining concessions. In addition to this, we will work on the
introduction of mercury-free technology and build an access to market
model that puts emphasis on strong supply chain traceability and due
diligence (ICGLR and OECD) requirements.
