Drawing on field investigations, satellite imagery, open-source intelligence, confidential sources on the ground and government decrees disclosed through the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative in the CAR, the map includes:

• Mineral research and exploitation permits issued by the Central African government
• Areas of strategic mining activity
• Zones vulnerable to violence
• Armed actors’ territorial influence

This platform visualizes the intersections between mining operations, armed actors, state-aligned networks and areas affected by insecurity and conflict dynamics across the CAR.
