-==== ASM Population: xxx,xxx ====+==== ASM Population: 5,000 ==== 
 +Total: DOM-2014a suggests that ASM activity has increased since ILO-99, extracting semi-precious larimar, amber and gold. The 2,500 from 1999 may have doubled. -> **5,000**\\ 
 +Min/max: Min cound be 3,000 like in 1999, max could be same difference to upwards (+2,000)? (as per intensified activity suggested in DOM-2014a.) -> **3,000 - 7,000**\\ 
 +Female participation: no data. Possibly in processing and gemstone sorting. -> **500** (?)\\ 
 +Gold: no data but ASGM existent. -> **2,000** (?)\\

 +(DOM-2014a): Qualitative data that indicates increased importance ... likely due to increased activity.\\ 
 +  Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) issues are being prioritized: 2014 has been declared “The Year of Small-Scale Mining” and the government has appointed a professional to the Mining General Directorate to focus on ASM issues 
 +  The extraction of alluvial gold using rudimentary techniques has been regulated. 
 +  ASM activities in the Dominican Republic are primarily found around semi-precious larimar, amber and gold deposits. 
 +  Data regarding this mining subsector is virtually nonexistent. Stakeholders reported the existence of between 20 to 50 small-scale mining sites, but these estimates cannot be confirmed.
