artisanal & small-scale mining (ASM)

Artisanal and Small-scale mining (ASM) refers to informal mining activities carried out using low technology or with minimal machinery. It is estimated that more than 100 million people rely on this sector for income, mainly in developing nations.[1] In some areas ASM takes place alongside large-scale formal mining leading to conflicts.

The term Artisanal & Small-scale Mining (ASM) broadly refers to mining practised by individuals, groups or communities often informally (illegally) and in developing nations.[1] A common definition for this sector has not been adopted as its legal status, defining criteria, and local definitions vary from country to country.

An artisanal miner or small-scale miner is, in effect, a subsistence miner. They are not officially employed by a mining company, but rather work independently, mining or panning for gold using their own resources. Small-scale mining includes enterprises or individuals that employ workers for mining, but generally working with hand tools.
