==== ASM Population: 65,000 ====
Total: As per ARM-18 -> ** 65,000** \\
Min/max: Data in ARM-18 based on field work, therefore low uncertainty -> **60,000 - 70,000** \\
Female participation: commonly in the range of 20-25% -> **15,000** \\
Gold: Extraction of 3T and Tungsten is predominant. Gold to a minor extent, possibly ~10% -> **7,000** \\

==== Data sources for estimation ====

===2018: 65,000 ===
(ARM-18), Table Annex 3: 65,000\\
Based on ARM (2018): https://www.responsiblemines.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Rwanda_case_study.pdf : **65,000**\\
"//In 2014, the mining sector reported having approximately 34,000 direct employees. With an estimated number of four family members per miner, 170,000 Rwandans (approximately1.5% of the total population) are directly dependent upon the sector. Because miners are mostly casual workers and the study estimated that the actual number of individual persons directly involved in mining was on a seasonal basis, the number of employees may well have risen as high as 65,000 in 2014.//"

===2014: 73,000 ===
(UBC-14): Gold-only data produced by statistic modelling: \\
  Expected ASM population: 73,000 
  Estimated ASM gold production: 1.2 t/a

===1999: 10,000 ===
(ILO-99): Employment: 5,000 - 15,000\\
Number of mines: n/a \\
Illegal mines: n/a \\
