Role in DRC cobalt

The November 2025 ministerial order names KKM as recipient of a partial cession from Gécamines and establishes PE 16493. CAMI's 31 March 2026 register lists KKM as active holder of that six-square title. These records establish titleholding; they do not establish mine operatorship, cobalt output, or supply-chain activity.

Contract registry scope

The contract registry classifies a base cession record as total, but leaves the permit and ministerial-approval fields blank. The contract it publishes, N°2683/13782/SG/GC/2025, signed on 15 October 2025, defines the rights it concerns as those attached to 13 squares of PE 11.599 on the Kabulungu deposit (Article 1.1); Annex A, which gives their coordinates, is not in the published file.

Open questions

  • The CTCPM shareholders table is empty and its beneficial-owners table displays no owner rows. The public-private-partnership label does not name the private partner or equity split. The contract registry links the company's statutes and notarial acts, which still need document-level review. A secondary report naming percentages was not accepted without primary support.
  • CTCPM's permits, deposits, mines, extractions and treatment pages show no records even though CAMI lists three active KKM permits. This is a gap in the operator profile and does not establish that KKM has no operations; keep CAMI as the title-status source.
  • The reviewed official records establish titleholding but provide no substantiated KKM production, operating activity, or cobalt supply-chain relationship.
