Latest update on the Congo Mining Contracts Reviews published

The international campaign A Fair Share for Congo! published the latest update on the progress of the Congolose mining contracts review.
The update describes the process towards, and the reactions to, the long awaited publication of the results of the review of the mining contracts, by the Congolese government. But although the publication is a step forward it doesn't mean that a fair share of the Congolese mining revenues is a fact.
