Publ. year Year of most recent publication. (May be first publication or quoting older data)

Inclusion of Development Minerals (Inc. DevMin)
(Minerals for domestic use such as construction materials etc., other than the typical ASM commodities produced for export such as gold, 3T, gemstones, etc.)

no Development minerals are not included in the count. The total number of ASM miners is likely higher.
some Some development minerals are included in the count of miners but probably not all. The total number of ASM miners may be higher.
yes A representative number of development minerals is included in the count of miners. The count appears quite complete.

ASM Status

Existing (data assessed) Quantitative ASM data exists or qualitative evidence allows for an estimation
Existing (not quantified) Qualitative evidence of ASM exists, but is insufficient for a quantitative estimation. (Note: for technical reasons of correctly displaying this category on the map, a default value of 100 is assigned.
Likely existing (suspected) Conditions are favourable for ASM to exist. Evidence not yet identified.
None (unlikely) Conditions are not favourable for ASM. Most likely no ASM Country.

Data Curation

as reported The number is based on reported data. Reason: Data is considered sufficiently recent and plausible to reflect the current situation.
extrapolated The number has been extrapolated. Reason: Existing data is either outdated or partial (not covering the entire country or all typical ASM commodities).
supposed The number is a working hypothesis that needs to be confirmed. Reason: Quantitative ASM data has not been found, but qualitative evidence allows for a rough estimation.
