This pre-publication examines several current non-mercury methods employed by artisanal miners to recover gold and proposes a transformative strategy aimed at revolutionizing the use of mercury and cyanide salts in both ASM and LSM operations worldwide.
Cette analyse s’appuie sur des études de cas détaillées des expériences menées dans ces pays. Pour huit de ces pays, les études de cas ont été développées grâce à la collaboration des équipes nationales planetGOLD respectives avec The Impact Facility (TIF) et l’Alliance for Responsible Mining (ARM).

This report examines the potential for ASM to take an expanded role in meeting critical mineral demand driven by the adoption of low-carbon energy and digital technology.
The report examines the relationship between national fiscal regimes and the formality of the artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) sector. Specifically, the study attempts to determine whether and to what extent a country’s fiscal regime – the total of taxes, fees, and royalties – acts as significant factor pushing ASGM producers and exporters into informality. The report addresses the production segment of the gold supply chain from the commercialisation segment and focusses specifically on nine planetGOLD countries: Burkina Faso, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Indonesia, Kenya, Mongolia, the Philippines, and Peru.
This toolkit was developed as part of a workshop organized by the planetGOLD programme, bringing together journalists from diverse regions to explore solutions-based storytelling in the context of Artisanal and Small-Scale Gold Mining (ASGM). The toolkit provides a comprehensive guide to understanding ASGM and applying solutions journalism principles to create impactful narratives about this complex sector.
Financial inclusion for sustainable investments is a key element in the GEF-GOLD initiative in Colombia. Small-scale mining and artisanal mining are foremost excluded from Formal Banking. Very little information is available within the country for granting credit criteria.
