4,582 mining titles. 7,127 artisanal sites. 2,710 documented armed presences. One platform — updated daily from official CAMI and IPIS sources.
The DRC Mining Cadastre Portal (CAMI) hosts one of Africa's most transparent mining registries — but navigating it requires hours of manual work. BAKAP DataLabs has built an automated extraction and cross-referencing engine that pulls, structures, and enriches every active license, application, and artisanal zone.
Cross-referenced with IPIS field data — the gold standard for artisanal mining and armed presence documentation in eastern DRC — the platform delivers a risk-scored, map-ready intelligence layer updated every business day.
Every data point traces back to an authoritative primary source. No estimates, no aggregators — direct extraction from official government and field research databases.
The official DRC mining cadastre. Every active license, application, quarry authorization and artisanal zone — with legal boundaries, titleholder names, expiry dates, and commodity declarations. Data updated every business day.
Since 2009, IPIS has conducted field surveys at over 2,800 artisanal mining sites in eastern DRC — the most comprehensive ground-truth database of ASM activity, armed group interference, child labor, and mineral traceability on the continent.
Administrative boundaries for all 26 DRC provinces, territories, and protected areas — enabling spatial filtering by jurisdiction, cross-referencing with conservation zones, and regulatory compliance checks.
Instantly visualize which blocks are licensed, which are pending application, and which are truly open — overlaid on provincial boundaries and protected areas. Replace hours of manual CAMI navigation with a 10-second answer.
Value: Field decision in hours, not weeks
Auto-generated due diligence report: license validity, boundary coordinates, nearby armed presences from IPIS data, overlap with protected areas, expiry timeline, and risk score — in a shareable PDF.
Value: $2,000–$15,000 per report
Full license history, status, titleholder chain, boundary data, and conflict flag — pulled in seconds rather than waiting days for a CAMI response. Each verification billed at a flat per-report rate.
Value: Billable to client at 5x
Cross-reference CAMI licenses with IPIS armed presence data. Export a dataset of all licenses where IPIS documents armed group interference within or adjacent to the licensed polygon. Filter by group, mineral, or province.
Value: Data for investigations & advocacy
A jurisdiction-specific dashboard showing all active licenses, pending applications, expired titles still in operation, and artisanal zones — with export to Excel for fiscal reconciliation and enforcement tracking.
Value: Annual government contract
EU Conflict Minerals Regulation requires companies to verify their 3T & gold supply chains. Map your sourcing locations against IPIS armed interference data and generate an audit-ready compliance report.
Value: EU regulatory complianceNo other platform in the world computes an automated, spatially-anchored security risk score for DRC mining assets. We cross every CAMI license polygon against the IPIS ground-truth database to produce a 0–100 risk index.
"The DRC holds some of the world's most critical mineral reserves — cobalt, coltan, gold, cassiterite. The gap between what exists on paper and what exists on the ground costs investors billions and miners their safety. — BAKAP DataLabs, bridging that gap since day one."
