3. 1. Implementation of RCM and due
diligence by the private sector in Uganda
Background
Uganda currently has the following small to medium scale mine
sites for 3T and G. The sites include:
• For 3Ts – 15 mine sites (6 ML’s and 9 LL’s) mostly located in
the southwest region of the country
• For G - 17 mine sites either producing or under development
spread all over the country
Operations have since ceased from some sites as a result of lack of
market due to non compliance with the RCM requirements.
Following extensive meetings and discussions with mining
sector representatives and stakeholders, the policy and legal
framework of the sector is currently undergoing review for
amendment in alignment with regional standards, legal and fiscal
3
regimes.
4. 1. Implementation of RCM and due
diligence by the private in Uganda
It is worth noting that Partnership Africa Canada (PAC), an
ICGLR counterpart has been instrumental in facilitating the fast
tracking of the implementation of RCM.
Current activities
• Harmonization of National Policies and Laws in lieu of
OECD-ICGLR guidelines
•
Formalisation of Artisanal and Small ScaleMining
•
Updating and validation of the National Database

No gold mine site has ever been inspected by any mineral
traceability service provider.
•
Todate traceability/chain of custody systems are not

9
10. 5. Role that other gold trading hubs (e.g.
