Gécamines: the mines it operates or owns, and what they report

Gécamines is a state-owned company headquartered in DR Congo. This site lists 2 operations tied to it, for zinc and cobalt: it operates 0 and holds an interest in 2 more. On the operations here where a whole-operation figure in metal content can be stated, its interests add up to about 77,200 tonnes of zinc (0.6% of world output). That leaves out operations without such a figure, so it is not the company's total.

How much is that on its interests?

Computed as each operation's whole-operation output in metal content multiplied by the interest shown. Operations whose output is stated in another form, or only as the owner's share, are left out of this sum, so it understates what the company controls.

The corporate facts above (headquarters, type, listing) come from the sources listed; no stock prices, valuations or executives are shown. Ownership and output are on the date and period stated on each operation's page. The list covers operations with a published figure for the commodities on this site, so it is not the company's full portfolio.
