During a press café organized on Monday February 26, 2024, at the general directorate of the Mining Cadastre (CAMI), the new management team of this institution, appointed in August 2023, presented the major advances recorded since its advent.
The facilitators of the entrance to the Congolese mining sector also reviewed the prospects for this new year, mainly the reopening of the window. At the same time, they opened a framework for discussion on the various concerns of stakeholders in the extractive sector.
“We are happy to open the Mining Cadastre to you so that you can see how the State services work and try to do a little more education because there must be a relationship between what we do and what are recipients, that is to say that people who are far away must know how we proceed and this is what was done by first asking questions and then looking at the package to see how we make a request of a mining title,” declared Popol Mabolia, director general of CAMI.
Returning to the concern relating to the sanitation of the mining sector, Popol Mabolia revealed the establishment of a board of directors but also the cleaning up of the cadastral file of mines faced with several irregularities "coming from his predecessors as well as certain holders of mining or quarry rights.
“First, there has never been a board of directors. It was necessary to install the board of directors. Subsequently, there were plenty of permits that were given. We looked at this situation of all these 3050 permits which were granted in all categories. And we saw that there were problems with some things, the law was not respected correctly, it was not done well. This had the effect of freezing mining areas that could have been drilled. And so, for this we carried out the cleaning up of the mining cadastre,” added the director general of CAMI.
Falling in his intervention, Popol Mabolia explained that “CAMI looked at the application of the law in the context of the mining cadastre”. He also announced that the cleaning of the cadastral file made it possible to recover more than 10,000 kilometers of mining squares.

All they’ve done is install a board of directors who no doubt want to leverage their cumulative experience and stature into some nice retirement bribes. All chat over there

*Fyi, I see where,
The CAMI recovers 10,000 km2 of frozen illegal concessions thanks to the cleaning up of the cadastral file
The mining cadastre (CAMI) has undertaken a clean-up of the cadastral file, and the results are impressive.
Since August 9, 2023, the new Mining Cadastre (CAMI) team, authorized to grant mining titles, has succeeded in recovering around 10,000 km² of illegal concessions.
These concessions, which did not comply with the rules in force, represented more than 1000 mining titles, or approximately a third of the total of 3050 titles of all categories listed to date by the mining cadastre.
During a press conference held at CAMI headquarters in Kinshasa, Popol Mabolia Yenga, the Director General (DG) of the organization, underlined the importance of this recovery.
It allows mining companies and investors to have more space for their activities.
More than 100 mining titles allocated to individuals will be canceled
In addition, a proposal to delist more than 100 mining titles belonging to natural persons, in violation of the law, was submitted to the Ministry of Mines.
The alarming observation after the analysis of the cadastral file also reveals that only around ten companies pay at least 50% in mining royalties.
In addition to this action, permanent dialogue with the union was relaunched, and the CAMI management team managed to improve the maximization of state revenues in just 6 months since taking office.
An important measure has been put in place: the granting of the certificate to companies is now conditional on payment of 100% of the quota, i.e. all of the royalties.
This directive is currently being implemented.
However, Mr. Mabolia also expressed his dissatisfaction with the low cost of filing fees for the right of acquisition, which is yet to be clarified.

CAMI continues to work to ensure transparent and efficient management of mining titles in the DRC, thus contributing to the development of the country's mining sector.
Rules for granting mining titles in the DRC
As a reminder, in the DRC, the granting of mining titles is governed by specific procedures.
Here is an overview of the two main granting methods:
First, the exceptional procedure for submitting to the call for tenders:
This procedure applies to deposits considered “reserved and subject to call for tenders”.
To be subject to this procedure, the deposits must meet certain criteria: they must be known and have significant value; they must be inside clearly identified squares or bordering squares; these deposits must be studied, documented or possibly worked by the State or its agencies, and be considered as “an asset of known significant value”; they must not be located in a square subject to a mining right or a quarry right in the name of the State, nor in the name of a third party.
Procedure
The tender procedure is as follows:
The order of the Minister of Mines reserves the deposits to be submitted to the call for tenders.
The Prime Minister confirms this reservation.
Then, the call for tenders is published in the Official Journal and specifies the terms and conditions of the offers as well as the date and address of submission.
Note that access to the exploitation of a deposit obtained by call for tenders is conditional on the payment of a “doorstep” representing 1% of the in-place value of the deposit.
Indeed, if the deposit was studied, documented or worked by a commercial company belonging to the State, the doorstep goes 100% to this company.
Second, the classic procedure for granting mining titles:
This procedure is subject to particular formalism and must comply with certain instructions.
It can be initiated by requesting the granting of mining titles.
Here, the steps include submitting the file to the Mining Cadastre (CAMI), paying filing fees, cadastral, technical and environmental instructions, etc.
Finally, let us point out that the DRC continues to work to ensure transparent and efficient management of mining titles, thus contributing to the development of the country's mining sector.

The Sino-Congolese Contract: the unspoken words of the IGF Jules ALINGETE which obscure the result obtained”
The Congolese people as well as international opinion followed the report on the revision of the SINO-CONGOLESE contract, which led to a renegotiation of certain clauses of this convention and the addition of other articles included in the signed amendment between the two parties.
It is therefore in an appearance of victory won after a bitter battle that the Congolese side, in particular the IG Head of Services Jules Alingete, party to the discussions, announced the $7 billion intended for road infrastructure over the entire area of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
However, several questions deserve to be asked and adequate answers must be given so that the entire Congolese population is enlightened because, in fact, it is the so-called contract “OF THE CENTURY”.
Spanning more than two decades, Congolese youth in general and Congolese elites in particular must keep their eyes peeled and carefully scrutinize the results of the negotiations as presented with pomp by the stakeholders.
First question:
Why the conclusions of the renegotiation provide 40% of the shares for the DRC and 60% for the Chinese side, in the operation of the Busanga Dam, while the 2010 memorandum of understanding on the creation of the Busanga dam provides for 49% shares for the DRC against 51% for the Chinese side?
What motivated the Congolese party, made up of the IGF and the President's office and many others, to sell off the Republic's shares by lowering them for the benefit of the Chinese party?
Second question
Why are other mining projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo obliged to pay 2.5% royalties to the Congolese party, unlike 1.2% that DRC negotiators were able to obtain in the renegotiation of the SINO-CONGOLESE contract?
Another audit commission must be set up in order to investigate the attitude of the Congolese negotiators towards the Chinese side, because we cannot understand that we are claiming a historic victory, when we are giving up % of dividends calculated in millions of dollars which should be used to raise the standard of living of the Congolese population.
Third question
Why is there opacity regarding the duration of the payment of 7 billion?
We are not told exactly when this amount will be fully paid to the Congolese side.
We use very simplistic rhetoric “Until the end of the project”.
And yet, the population must know for how many years these new clauses will apply.
It is relevant to shed light on the details of this project in order to avoid jeopardizing our youth who will be heirs to past errors made by negotiators.
Fourth question
Who manages the SINO-CONGOLESE contract?
Who are the interlocutors who represent the DRC on a daily basis to monitor and evaluate the implementation of the conventions?
We saw the IGF in front of the Tribune of Minister Patrick Muyaya, in the position of spokesperson for the Congolese side, is this a competence or attribution included in its prerogatives?
Can the IGF negotiate agreements on behalf of the DRC?
What about the structure recently launched by President Félix Tshisekedi, the Agency for Steering, Coordination and Monitoring of Collaboration Agreements?
Was she part of the commission that renegotiated this contract?
What were his contributions?
What is its share of responsibility in the opacity noted above?
Given this imbroglio observed in the progress of this process of renegotiation of the SINO-CONGOLESE contract, we ask for more light because there are still a good ten questions which will be asked in our second forum and they must not suffer from any area shadow.
We call on the dedicated structure for this file, in particular this monitoring and coordination agency (APCSC) to answer these questions in order to remove any ambiguity in the understanding of the evolution of this project whose negotiations seem to be marred by several inconsistencies which raise questions, suspicions of the existence of schemes negotiated and prepared in advance between the two parties.

I think Graeme has it the wrong way around . Not DRC lawyers representing Zijin , instead , Zijin lawyers are representing the DRC .
Graeme has since deleted these posts .

It was the moment the bod realized Zijin lawyers are in bed with the DRC. Graeme called old Nige to told him his new findings. Nige the beagle fallen out of the bed and started to ask himself if the MoU was only a time wasting strategy from the DRC/china to burn our money. After six weeks the DRC haven’t done anything in relation to the interim orders, a split and change to manono lithium took 5 days. But old Nige the bloodhound have a last trick and filled a 12 quadrillion dollar claim at the ICSICCDSIDC, the ultimate arbitration court that have to be invented in the future but Nige will have the first hearing session. So we can easily listen to the 2040 roadshows that our money is safe and the future is imminent. If it could be delayed Nigels grandson Legin will continue the battle. In the meantime Hoot’s toilet will have 3 billion new posts at the crapper.
