-UBC-14 data is only statistically calculated but due to lack of other data, the estimation of **7,000** remains the best available guess.\\
+Recent information from Heemskerk is primary field data and reflects situation in 2024: **8,500**\\
-Min/max: Due to lack of primary field data **+/- 3,000** appears reasonable. This would come close to ILO-99 \\
+Min/max: low uncertainty because of primary field data: **+/- 500** \\
-Female participation: With rather garimpo-type mining, participation of women is likely low: **500**.\\
+Female participation: indicated as <10%: **800**.\\
 Gold: **All** data are for ASGM.
