Gold Hub · Mine sites

Where the digging happens, and who is at the pit.

The located evidence, country by country: independently assessed sites, demarcated artisanal zones and licensed concessions, with the workforce and conditions recorded at each. Every set below names its producer, its scope, and what it does not cover.

These are the same holdings the data directory carries, read here as mining evidence rather than as data. Every figure below is printed from one holding’s own count, under its own terms; none is summed across holdings, because they count different things in different years.
