Primera Gold Exported 354 kilos of Artisanal Gold in 51 days
Primera Gold exported, in fifty-one (51) days, a total volume of 354 kg of gold from artisanal mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
These figures were provided by the Congolese Minister of Finance, Nicolas Kazadi, via his Twitter account on Friday March 10, 2023.
Minister Nicolas Kazadi did not specify details on where this quantity of artisanal gold was purchased.
In February 2023, Nicolas Kazadi had already announced that 207 kilograms of gold from artisanal mining were exported, mainly from the provinces of South Kivu and Ituri.
Since its establishment at the end of 2022, Primera Gold has been approved as a counter for the purchase and sale of artisanal gold in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
It should be noted that this joint venture plans to install, in the next few days, a gold processing refinery in the province of South Kivu.
