Senegal Suspends All Mining Activity at Faleme River

Senegal has suspended all mining activity for nearly three years on its side of the
southeastern Faleme River, in a decree aimed at protecting the environment and
supporting local communities threatened by an artisanal gold mining boom.


According to the published decree, Mining will be suspended on all Senegalese
territory up to 500 metres from the river’s left bank and remain in place until June
30, 2027. A survey found the number of illegal mining sites along the Senegalese and Malian
sides of the Faleme has risen to over 800 from 600 in 2021.


The Faleme, which was once home to a wide range of fish and mammals including
hippos and served a vital role for local agriculture, is in urgent need of restoration,
according to a 2024 paper published in the Journal of Water Resource and Protection.
