DRC officials seized thousands of tonnes of copper and cobalt and more than 500 trucks plus other vehicles and machinery after a committee of police, military and mining ministry officials inspected Lualaba and Haut-Katanga provinces, the justice ministry said on Monday. The justice minister has ordered an investigation into allegations of widespread illegal mining; the operation may have uncovered mining fraud, illegal extraction and mineral smuggling. The DRC is the world’s largest supplier of cobalt and the second-largest producer of copper and has long struggled to prevent artisanal miners from encroaching on large concession areas held by international mining companies.
