Mining site

Mukondo Mountain

Copper-cobalt mine near Kakanda operated by Boss Mining in USGS's 2022 yearbook, the only source for the site, which gives it capacities of 22,000 tonnes of copper and 3,600 tonnes of cobalt a year. Gécamines reports Boss Mining's activities stopped from 29 May 2023. An artisanal row that ITIE-RDC's 2025 report names MUKONDA, under PE 469, is a separate record.

    Operates

    USGS's 2022 yearbook names Boss Mining as the operating company of the Mukondo Mountain mine near Kakanda. Gécamines reports Boss Mining's activities stopped from 29 May 2023, with the restart still impeded after the suspension was lifted on 7 August 2024, so the operation is recorded as of 2022.
