CASESTUDY- MININGSECTORINCONGOIn Congo’s artisanal mining sector, there are three types of traders: “Those who pay the diggers to extract minerals and then sell them to bigcompanies; those who buy minerals from the diggers; and those who own the pit, pay the diggers and sell minerals to the companies.”
Extortion - Emilienne Intongwa wanted to buy a mining pit. In order to obtain a small loan to set up her business she had to hand over thedocuments to her house : “If you find minerals, the trader will be your only buyer. If you don’t, you’ll either sort out your debt or he’ll seize yourproperty…”.
Bribes for Protection - As the first female pit owner in her region, Intongwa had to protect her business from men who were not used to womenowning mining pits. “The biggest challenge [to working in the mining site] was working with so many men,” Intongwa says. “At first, diggers wouldsteal from me and I had to pay extra money to find someone who could check on them.”
Sexual Exploitation / Sextortion - Stone crushers, also called “mama twangaises,” are the most discriminated category of the mining hierarchy andmust negotiate access to the mining sites by performing sexual acts. In many cases, they only get paid if they find gold among the crushed quartz.Neema Muyengo, who works as a mama twangaise, says: “I wake up every day at six and I walk for two hours to come here….Every day, the onlything I do is pound stones. I have to look after my family but, sometimes, I don’t even get paid and working so hard becomes useless.”
Response : The response was to put in place Collective Action for better implementation and communication of the regulations and the creation ofpools of resources funded by women miners. “Associations…are very important because, whenever a member is subjected to any sort of abuse, itgives them legal representation. Women alone seldom dare to denounce what happened and, even when they do, unless they are ready to paylarge sums of money, they are hardly able to file a complaint.”
