Industry, innovation and infrastructure are leading consumers of both high value minerals like gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten; as well as low value minerals like construction materials, dimension stones and precious stones

Our Work

ACEMP promotes the sustainable extraction of low value minerals and materials through research and skills development of artisanal miners

Our Target

By 2026, train 500 artisanal miners in the Karamoja region to produce construction products like tiles and slates that are
competitive in the local market
