The Democratic Republic of Congo is currently in the fourth generation of its mining legislation. Long before the 2018 reform, the 2002 mining code was intended to be more attractive and competitive than its predecessors. Unfortunately, in return, the State was unable to mobilize the expected revenues to finance community development projects, which would give local communities access to basic resources. Thus, through the 2018 reform, the legislator instituted a regime deemed progressive by virtue of its alignment with international and regional best practices, particularly concerning the protection of human rights, the promotion of community development and the reinforcement of transparency standards in the mining sector. In these respects, it is equipped with a number of innovative measures. It serves as a reference tool for authorities, mining companies, investors and local communities to ensure responsible and sustainable mining.
